“I have an analogy that I use for this kind of situation.

A man who builds his muscles to look strong on the outside, wastes his time when he ignores the cancer within for he will surely die, and all the muscles in the world will avail him little.”

“We have had 5 straight days of rain here in Northern Virginia. How could I recharge two electric cars?

Have you even checked how much electricity is requried to recharge an electric car?

Sony Claifornia has brownouts on hot days. Now you are going to plug in 1 million cars?

I did notice that you only mentioned wind and sunshine poser. How are we going to replace petroleom, coal and nuclear powerplants”

“America, Israel and the rest of the Western world are poles apart when it comes to peace, all they want is they cannot accept other cultures, they want others to follow their immorality and their naked culture. So when you want to impose your culture and Secularism on others especially Muslims there will be violence and destruction where peace has no place. This has been going for the last 1500 years and it will never end. Invade, regime change and then install a corrupt puppet regime and blame it on the people who defend their countries as violent extremists, terrorist, fanatics and so forth. China is an example when it comes to Hong Kong and Taiwan. They did not want to invade Taiwan but let them live but never allowed it to declare independence. China's success also depended on their patience and hard work. Leaders of the Western world have so much to learn from China. What the Western world has is noting but corrupt Democracy, Secularism, and greedy Capitalism.”

“Ha! Delightful. Fanned.”

“Google Hidden Treuhand - the money is offshore, so are the postbox firms belonging to Halliburton where Hidden Treuhand and bank secrecy hide profits. Halliburton's balance sheets are in the book. All the proof you want is there.”

“"Working people supporting the GOP

are like chickens supporting KFC!"

Thanks to lizt”

“Obama can learn something from Grayson and Moore. No more MR. nice guy, it does not work. Thank goodness Grayson had the lungs to say what he did, and back it up,Moore as well.

Put the Republicans on the defensive> , that is where they belong.”

“Don't forget Sanders, Kucinich, Weiner, Clyburne, and Rockefeller.

Single Payer is the only thing really worth fighting for. The PO is a major hand out to the medical insurance corporations and too little for too few.”

“Thank you for this comment. The unions are ineffectual because they were broken during the Reagan administration with the air traffic controllers strike and the fear of people who need to have a job.

The unions are only as strong as the members. My son is a union member and he only goes to meetings to pay his dues. He never stays to see what is going on in within the union. I have told him that he needs to be more involved but it doesn't seem to mean anything.

People need to realize that the great prosperity that this country experienced during the 50s and 60s was only because of the efforts of unions. I admit that there is corruption within the unions, but once again I blame that on the apathy of the members. They need to get involved and know whats going on and correct it.
When a union is on strike, don't cross the picket line, no matter how much you need to shop at a particular store.”

“"Why can't we cut rent in half for people who get laid off?"
-Where's the money for that going to come from? Cutting the work week to 32 hours? That would generally just limit productivity. Those three proposals of yours are essentially calling for a massive intrusion of the government into just about every aspect of life. We're having a hard time getting the American public to let the government expand their insurance program, so lets focus on that first.”

“Are you really that naive? The only people who will be hurt are the one's who own the property. They typically have a mortgage on these properties. Do you want them to be foreclosed upon?

Then of course all of those cuts in mortgages affect all of the investors who invested in those mortgages. Talk about throwing Grandma and Grandpa under the train. Well the Left really doesn't care if Grandma and Grandpa have to eat dog food because all of their investments were cut by 25%.”

“True. But Obama does look at times like he's a passenger and not the driver!”

“I think they do understand. I think they are making much more off it in the Prison Industrial complex, to change anything.”
