“I think it's great they make time to do regular family things. I am sure this helps keep the president grounded so that he can proceed with his job regardless of the media hoopla and speculation about his approval ratings and policies, etc.”

“Serious error in judgement on the part of the police officer speeding in the right lane without emergency lights, and apparently no emergency either. Presumably, the reason why he was speeding will eventually be known. Accident risk goes up at high speed and at night. I'm trying not to label cops or anyone else. There is too much idolizing and demonizing of people and that gets us no where. It's the choices that we as humans are call capable of that need to be called out and either condemned or praised. This one horrendous incident may destroy the cop's career, but does not define him - just as any courage and commendable actions he previously took as an officer don't. They co-exist and are hard to reconcile. Having said that, I hope the families of the victims get justice.”

“Candy Crowley has been my favorite journalist on TV since I first became aware of her a few years ago. She is indeed a straight-up news reporter and I don't care what her own politics are. We need more like her. When all we have is opinion of newsmakers and opinion of news celebrities and baloon-boy stories and continued obsession with Sara Palin, we are not getting the information that people need to know - which is what news really is. So, I wish this reporter continued good health and a long career because we need her and more journalists liker her.”

“Isn't it sad that we've become so greedy and materialistic as a culture that we're squabbling over a POS bill that is actually health INSURANCE reform, and not actual health CARE reform?”

“I just had to come back for a 2nd viewing. This is so classic. I hope John get's an award for this skit alone. Agree with JoyIsGwenNYC - the SNL skit was hilarious and Jason Sudeikis did a great job, but John Stewart has Beckerisms down-pat. Agree with lawyerfan too: "The only freedom threatened by government subsidized and regulated health care is the freedom that insurance companies enjoy to fleece the public for profit."”

“John, you are too funny. VERY well done. It's a good thing you don't do this routine on a regular basis or you might get hemorrhoids and a bad appendix straining so hard like Beckster strains so hard to make sense. The only thing missing from the chalk board were tea-bags! Keep up the good comedy.”

“Europeans left they're continent to exploit this one. They brought slavery and beat the natives already here into submission. They wanted freedom to force their religion on other people. Until the balance of power shifts to put money and resources into education and parenting skills, the masses will continue to suffer at the hands of the Republican corporate elite. The shift is dependent on the masses holding their elected officials accountable to them and the news media accountable for the truth. Call and write your congressman, senator and favorite news station and remind them. It's really not that hard.”

“up42Ooz, re:"what kind of 15 to 24 year old would want do have any connection to the present Conservative ideals and morals?"
Based on personal observation, I'd say one raised by right-wingers and/or who's opinion of black people is based on inner-city blacks. They resent "their sense of entitlemen­t." Local communities reinforce local mindsets .”

LOCAL!
I'll use a personal revalation.
Born in the Mid-60's to a very conservative, rural Sasatchewan family. When I entered public school, it was an all white affair. Back then, religion was taught in school. By the time I was in the 5th grade, miniroities started showing up at school for the first time. Still, being raised to follow the bible, the majority of kids didn't have a problem, BUT THE PARENTS DID!!

Everything about the republican party gets smaller with each new generation. What the Cons are doing is just speeding up the process.”

“It's likely too late for financial help for the campaign, but if residents pony up and Get Out The Vote, then he will have a great chance. GOTV is going to be our best friend for the next four years. Supporters from afar can also volunteer to call registered Dem voters to remind them to go to the polls. Contact the candidate's campaign office.”

“"Libby's own notes produced at his trial reflect that Cheney told him about the CIA employment of Wilson's wife in mid-June 2003." Cheney lied and got away with it. Dick.

“Cheney told Libby. Where's the leak? Did Richard Armitage tell Cheney he leaked? That's the only way Cheney would have known who leaked. I wonder why Richard Armitage, talking about a scumsuking­lowlifepie­ceofs&&t, did not publicly admit before he was ever contacted by the prosecutor that it was HE who disclosed the identity of Plame?”
