Commented Dec 17, 2009 at 00:36:53 in Politics
“Nationwide non violent demonstrations look better and better to me. Is there anyone ready, willing, and able to pull this together? This is the only way that the voices of those of us on Main Street will be heard, by forcing Washington to listen to us.”

Joe Sestak, Senate Candidate, Starts Taking On Democratic Leadership
Commented Aug 25, 2009 at 21:55:52 in Politics
“Joe Sestak ought to be knocknig some sense into the heads of the blue dog Democrats, Harry Reid, and all the other Democrats who are wavering over the public option plan. We the rank and file Democrats should give the nay sayers an ultimatum. Health care reform with a public option or the entire group of rouges booted out of office, begining with Harry Reid no further discussion. If the Democrats continue to ignore the demands of the majority, we WILL ignore them when we get into the voting booth. We ought to be calling on all of them to give up the health care plan they are currently enjoying (which is similar to a public option plan.) They surely are not complaining about their coverage which is paid for by us taxpayers.”
Democrats Ponder One-Bill Reconciliation Strategy For Health Care
Commented Aug 24, 2009 at 19:51:18 in Politics
“Why is it so difficult for the Democrats to understand that we the people are demanding health care reform with a public option and that we support the public option. Our voices must be heard. No public option, and they are ALL out of office, begining 2010. Period”

“I'm with you. If these useless congressmen prevent serious and public health care reform, I will donate generously to whomever has the spine to run these people out of Washington.”

“I just wish Obama would veto the bill if it doesn't have a public option. I don't want these co-ops they agreed to. At least prove that he stands for something ! I'd rather have nothing than the Senate Finance Bill.
Truthfully this health system is so messed up adding anything to it is probably a disaster. They really need to blow it up and start from scratch . Single Payer.. it's the cheapest and less wacky to run. One set of forms, one payment plan for doctors, one computer system. blah blah blah . oh well that will never happen.”

Blue Dogs Delay, Water Down House Health Care Bill
Commented Jul 29, 2009 at 23:22:01 in Politics
“The Democrats including the" Blue Dogs" must be put on notice. Deliver a public option plan to the 83% who are expecting nothing less or be voted out of office. If the Democrats allow these Blue Dogs to influence their final decision, then all we can expect will be the Rethugs version of health care reform, which essentially will favor the pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, and the other rip off artists. We the general public will remain the laughing stock. We must be prepared to fire the entire lot.”
Paul Stanley, Tennessee State Senator, Quits After Affair With 22-Year-Old Intern
Commented Jul 28, 2009 at 23:04:59 in Politics
“So much for the GOP and its hypocricital claim of "family values." These Christian Conservatives are reduced to falling like flies. At least he appears to be remorseful enough to quit. How about the rest who refuse to quit? These are the barefaced hypocrites. They are wearing us down.”
MNJim replied on Jul 28, 2009 at 23:18:02
“And yet the Christian Right Wingnuts say they still support US Senator David Vetter from Louisiana, who used prostitutes, which incidentally is also against the law. Now----I realize I may not be a real bright guy, but can anyone help me understand why these nutjobs still support a "Family Values" candidate who desecrates family values AND breaks the law?”

“Solution. Vote all of them out of office 2010 and those who escape the 2010 guillotine, should be given the pleasure in the 2012 go around. These people must be made to feel the wrath of the people who put them in office, and let us see if the lobbyists can save them and their jobs. This must be a collective effort.”

“Hope that he sings the same tune when he comes up for reelection. Payback time comes sooner or later, when it will give us great pleasure to vote him and the other Rethugs out of office. Guess that they are busy updating their resumes in advance.”
Goldman Sachs: Gambling With Your Money?
Commented Jul 27, 2009 at 23:05:01 in Business
“In order to unravel this convoluted mess and open the door to the mystery called The Feds i.e. Goldman Sachs, Google Grace Commission. Your eyes will pop out of their sockets. You will be able to understand Goldman Sachs and why it is allowed to operate as it does, and perhaps why the President is skirting around some very important issues.”
Senate Finance Committee Dropping Dem Health Goals: AP
Commented Jul 27, 2009 at 22:51:18 in Politics
“We ALL voted for the public option. Tell President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and Majority leader Harry Reid to kiss reelection goodbye UNLESS we get the option we need, Public Option. We must resolve to stay at home in 2010 and 2012 with the same enthusiasm with which we voted en masse in 2008. No matter the popularity of the President, we must not allow ourselves to be hoodwinked. Let us all withhold our votes.”
Raster replied on Jul 27, 2009 at 22:55:57
“Don't pass any health reform bill WITHOUT a public option because it won't be reform. Just let the present mess continue until it blows up in everyone's face. That's the message I'm emailing to the WH, Senate, and House.”

White House: TARP Money Might Not Be Traceable
Commented Jul 21, 2009 at 23:20:27 in Politics
“Smacks of corruption. The usual behavior of the "corporatocracy," robbing the poor to enrich the wealthy. This tactic is practiced in third world countries as well as here at home, and the culprits are absolutely shameless. The Geithners, Summers, Paulsons, Bernankes, and company make a study of it, and carry it out without cumpunction. Too bad the President has these very crooks as his "advisers". Waiting for transparency will be like waiting for Godot.”

“These Democrats are sucking every ounce of oxygen out of my system. This is dishonest. Why bother to investigate? We know exactly what the "findings" will be. Strange, no other media outlet is calling out the Democrats on this brazen and corrupt propaganda. Makes me ashamed to identify myself as a Democrat. TRANSPARENCY as we know it .”

House Dems To Geithner: Stop Backroom Deals With Wall Street
Commented Jul 20, 2009 at 22:38:13 in Politics
“Fairly caught. We ought to all call out President Obama on Geithner, and flood the White House with letters expressing NO CONFIDENCE in Mr Geithner. He is leading Obama up a fool's alley at the taxpayers expense. We should demand that the President fires him NOW.”
Shattering the Right vs. Left Prism Once Again: The Wall Street Journal Goes After Goldman and the Bank Bailout
Commented Jul 18, 2009 at 20:21:37 in Business
“What a shame that the President is allowing himself to be railroaded by Tim Geithner and Larry Summers and closing his eye to the "Looting of America" by Goldman Sachs. Seems to me that the behavior of the Wall Street crowd has yet to be changed, with greed and corruption still as its hallmark. The reluctance of President Obama to fire Geithner and Summers baffles me, in the meantime, Wall Street continues to run amok.”

“He was not railroaded, he was compromised by the money men.
I knew we were doomed when McCain had Phil Gramm and Obama had Larry Sumners...
This is why I vote 3rd party.
The only differences between the parties is who gets the $$$$ from the power brokers. It is really quite a simple formula, they give money to whomever is in power so their interests are first and foremost.
Obama is just a politician.”

Obama: Congress Must "Seize This Opportunity" On Health Care (VIDEO)
Commented Jul 18, 2009 at 16:56:56 in Politics
“My question is why is it so difficult to give us the plan we are all clamoring for? During elections we give these people what they ask us for, our votes. Why the difficulty giving us what we are asking for? We NEVER voted for lobbyists. All we ask is for the public option plan. Why do the lawmakers think that the plan we are asking for and will be happy with, is not the plan we need or is it good for us? Let's make a note of how they vote and return the favor when they come up for reelection. Vote them out of office.”

“People want free health care. That's the problem, they want it for free, and nothing's free. Maybe they would like to pay for it like Bush paid for he war in Iraq-- just don't include it in the budget!”

“Glad to see you're awake.
I could argue that the government is in no position to manage something this big if it can't get Social Security or Medicare on some type solid financial footing, and that we need to fix what's really broken first before taking on anything else, but I appreciate you understanding they just don't care about what you want if it doesn't help them stay in power.”

Obama Campaign Arm Doubles Down, Targets House Dems On Health Care
Commented Jul 18, 2009 at 16:19:22 in Politics
“Call to arms. Support the Public Option plan and not the pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, and lobbyists. Keep the emails and phone calls going. Send them to our respective representatives, I.e., congressmen/women, senators etc. We HAVE to keep the pressure up and be aware of ALL who are up for reelection. After all , health care is a RIGHT and NOT a privilege, and it is a disgrace that the most powerful country in the world denies its citizens decent health care. Shameless!!! Let's go.”

“Tim Geithner and Larry Summers are the two persons in the Obama Administration who should not be there. They are NOT supporters of the taxpayers, but GIANTS for Wall Street, particularly, Goldman Sachs. We should innundate the White House to insist that these two men be removed before they do more damage than has already been done. Shame on them AND the President.”

“So sorry Anna. We know that changes are hard to accept, moreso changes for our betterment. I think that Friedman's fanincial "expertise" helped to land us in the debacle in which we are right now. And besides, the thinking of bygone days ninety years ago are not appropo to current day realities.”
