“I'd like fo rthe GOP to run a pro-choice candidate in any race and we'll see how big their tent is.”

“Do you not understand the concept of foundational principles?

The RHINOS in the West and Northeast are going away as this issue as it is a core principle of the re-emergence of the Conservative nation.

And yes, we are the majority so don't even try and convince yourself otherwise.

“GOP isn't a big tent--you tell them that all the time. And you mock Michael Steele when he asserts that it is. SO, GOP is who you say they are.

Dems? NOT so much...”

“THe entertainment industry is dominated by unions. Even bit part actors are guaranteed scale. Sports players have unions too. I don't hear any union bashers on this thread complainin about those unions. Plumbers and electricians have unions and no one is lamenting how bad those guys have it. My point is, Detroit was dominated by GM and GM was insulated from Detroit and the rest of the country. They made terrible, short-sighted business decisions and instead of letting them fall, we bailed them out time after time. No matter how much money we threw at them, GM remained mis-managed and I don't think that was the fault of any union.”

“It's his bull headedness to focus on healthcare instead of creating jobs and ending the war, which is what we all wanted when we voted for him. I realize fully that he didn't create the financial mess we're in, but people have short memories and all they're going to remember at election time is that we have a problem and he hasn't fixed it.”

plwood01 replied on Dec 15, 2009 at 16:32:14

“How can he fix anything if the senators and congressman don't want him to? You talk like a crazy person, expecting people to keep doing the same things while expecting a different outcome, it won't work, never will! They have to have the nerve to make real change that Barack has tried to get them to see, but they want to maintain the status quo and they are wearing him down, anybody would be worn down dealing with this bunch of naysayers! I believe that the representative are the ones who are spineless, listening to one or two of their own tell them all what to do and what to think about issues that effect the entire population of this country! There is no one of them who will stand up and tell them that they are digging their own graves along with ours! If Barack pushed anything through, they would all have a cow! They would impeach him as he already knows because they are planning that too! All those White haired men are sissys, the lot of them...”

“You have the nerve to ask WHY? Your reprobate son lowered the bar in every possible way, George. He almost destroyed this country. Why didn't you teach him any better?”

“George Sr. teach George Jr.. That's a joke.

When you look at Sr.'s record, he described Fred Malek as an 'honourable man'. This is one of the many things that puts Sr. at the bottom of the barrel with son.”

It's always the other kid who provoked him or the teachers don't understand him or

“I hope otherwise, but I fear Obama's legacy will be a lot of watered down bills that don't actually address the real problems but end up costing a fortune and creating massive fraud. Democrats, bad laws are worse than no laws. Stay true to the progressive ideals.”
