“I myself have semi-seriously considered seeking asylum in Canada, if only to give the border officials a good laugh. It's not that far-fetched- I'm a gay progressive who's lived in the South and now in a conservative military contractor area. We've all been under siege.”

“Such state-sanctioned barbarism happens every day in America- especially in the South. Get over yourselves.

P.S. I am neither of Chinese decent, nor have I ever been to China. I have my own opinions, which we are all entitled to- even if you don't like them.”

“And I have my own principles as I have already stated on this thread -but I will do so again for your benefit - I oppose the death penalty - anywhere. I abhor the death penalty. I have no time for any type of state sanctioned killings - judicial or extra judicial. Right now this discussion pertains to an execution in the early hours of this morning in China.
Now I suggest you get over yourself.”

You have made "otherization" into a science; haven't you?
Keep enjoying having those opinions.

“Your use of the term "libs" shows how clueless you are. You're stuck in some Mcarthyist version of what you think a liberal is- while regurgitating right-wing talking point pap. If you think private insurance is so great, feel free to keep paying higher premiums for less care. Do the rest of us 'libs,' progressives and thinking Americans in general a favor , and get out of the way- so we can come up with something better.

P.S. Medicare has worked just fine-regardless of what our Chicken-Little friends might have us believe. No system is perfect- but the insurance industry scam we have now is completely broken.”

“All those folks being gunned down that we hear about daily in the news, by zealots saying they thought Obama was coming to take their guns away- aren't being killed by loony-gun-toting liberals.

“What exactly is public opinion, right-wing style? No public option, no health care reform, and continued limitless profits for insurance oligarch's? Of course you can't phrase it that way, wink-wink, but we know what you mean...

I think this is the right-wing cheer:

14,000 more Americans a day losing health insurance- yay! 44,000 more Americans a year dying due to lack of health care- yaaaay!! More Americans sleeping in their cars, because we say, corporate welfare yes! Any kind of welfare to help one's fellow-(potentially free-loading) citizen- he11 no!!”

“What amazes me is that a minority of loudmouth brainless-wonders have been allowed to hijack health care reform. The right-wing is alive and well, and Bush/Cheney might as well still be in the WH for all the reform we're seeing. We should cut all pretenses and start nominating lobbyists for public office, since we all know they're the ones pulling the strings and ghost-writing legislation.

What's saddest of all, is that hard-right-wingers are truly a minority, but they make up the majority of people who actually vote. If we change that, we can truly change America- why do you think wingnuts had to destroy ACORN?”

New Immigration Reform Bill Leaves Out Gays And Lesbians

“How sad, that Democrats court the Gay and Lesbian vote during elections, but when it comes to recognizing us as legitimate first-class citizens, let alone legally validating our relationships, we suddenly find ourselves back at square one. Heterosexual couples have access to "Fiancee' visas," and are given 90 days to marry- while gay couples are left to linger in immigrant-limbo- because our system simply doesn't care.

I am very aware that America has serious issues to tackle- such as the economy and health care reform, but when any segment of the population is perpetually held back, while being promised full participation "someday," something has to give eventually. Our rights will not be handed to us, so scuse' the heck out of our little group if our march towards full civil rights annoys some of you.”

“Wow, just incredible. And we wonder why Europe and Asia are light years ahead of America in areas like science and basic education. As long as the trogdolytefascist faction, otherwise known as the right-wing of Amerikkka keeps its stranglehold on forcing us to argue and fight issues like it's 1950, we will continue to be the laughingstock of the universe.”

“"Laughingstock of the universe?"

I don't know; that may be exaggerating a little. The universe is big. There MIGHT be a lower form of life than our rightwingers.... somewhere out there.”

"Dr. Nancy" Canceled On MSNBC

“Putting Chuck Todd's smarmy face and annoying hand gestures on TV for 2-3 hours a day isn't a good alternative. Tamron Hall and David Schuster make a great team- they deserve a longer segment in a better time slot. We could use more Lawrence O'Donnell too- definitely not boring. If MSNBC really wants to be taken seriously as a news source, they need to have news on the weekends too- not endless cycles of "Lockup."”

“I was going by the length of time they've been professional liars. Palin has been in the public fishbowl for less than two years. Tiger has been living a double life for nearly a decade, while making billions off of his clean-cut, role model image.

Your point is valid though. Merry Christmas!”

loria replied on Dec 25, 2009 at 11:41:45

“Your point is valid too. But, my thought is that both Palin and Tiger have spent some time mastering lying. Palin has also mastered victimhood. At least we haven't seen as much of that from Tiger.”

“The Talibangical God tells Republicans they need to start wars in order to wipe out the brown-skinned heathens. Anything having to do with basic human decency and caring for your fellow man has plenty of selective interpretation loopholes.. Every line in the bible dealing with homosexuality however, is followed word-for-word. It's just the way they roll.”

“Debbie Wasserman Schulz is taking lemons and trying to make lemonade, but her intentions are good. Ratigan picked the wrong representative to unload his frustrations on. She's proven herself time and again to be one of the 'good guys.'

Her points are valid too- I am beyond frustrated with this monstrosity of an excuse for health care reform, but there ARE important changes in the bill- no denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions is a biggie, all by itself. The Dems are fighting hard for it, and closing loopholes such as caps on the amount of care insurance companies have to pay for.

Social Security was a joke when it was first passed. This is unfortunately how our system works- incrementally.”
