Joe Lieberman's Anti-Public Option Rationale Keeps Shifting
Commented Nov 23, 2009 at 17:23:01 in Politics
“Mr Lieberman, if, as you say now, that "we rely first on competition in our market economy", then why are you opposing the public option, for that is precisely what it will do: competition in our market economy.
Why don't you come out clean and say that the only reason why you oppose the public option is because it threatens the monopoly of the private insurance companies.”

“The reason he is against it is because the Health Care Industry knows that their practice of dropping sick people will be stopped, capping will be stopped and the 400% inflation on premiums will stop. He is also against not filling up his wallet being an industry shill.”
GOP Considers 'Purity' Resolution For Candidates

“The theory of purity is a communist theory!
According to Marxism-Leninism and Maoism, the purest party is the strongest party. The Cultural Revolution in China under Mao was borne out of this theory.
Yet, the Neo-cons have the audacity to call Obama and the Democrats socialists and communists!”

Lieberman: 'I Don't Think Anybody Thinks This Bill Will Pass'
Commented Nov 22, 2009 at 18:30:47 in Politics
“Are you suggesting that only Lieberman understood what the public option will/will not do? The Health Care Reform is the most debated topic in America. Never in its history has America seen its citizens voicing sanely and insanely, and passionately as well as "paranoidly" about this. So, I don't see what Lieberman wants to debate it through unless his motive is to fillibuster and kill the bill and serve his pay masters.”
Rep. Patrick Kennedy Banned From Receiving Communion By Bishop Thomas Tobin
Commented Nov 22, 2009 at 18:22:39 in Politics
“Let me state at the outset that I am a Roman Catholic. And this is what I like to remind my fellow Catholic, Bishop Thomas Tobin: The Son of God didn't become man to save 'holier than thou" people like you.
He came to save sinners like the rest of us!
If child-molesting Catholic priests can be forgiven and can be allowed to receive the holy sacrament, I see know reason why Rep Patrick Kennedy, whose only sin here is to show compassion for a fellow human being in her time of distress, should be denied the body and blood of Christ.
Remember Bishop Tobin, who among you who have not sinned cast the first stone.”

Lieberman: 'I Don't Think Anybody Thinks This Bill Will Pass'

“You are wrong Lieberman just as you were wrong in supporting John McCain.
The vast majority of Americans want a public option. This was reasserted time and again by public opinion polls. Only the hard-core conservatives and followers of racially inclined talk-show hosts whose eyes are keyed on health insurance and pharmaceutical industry ad revenues are opposed to the public option. This is because public option is rightly perceived as a direct threat to the health insurance industry's monopoly as it stands now.
Since many of the health insurance companies are based in your constituency and you are major benefactor, campaign financewise, it is small wonder you are opposing the public option.
To the Democrats, you turned Judas once, Mr Lieberman. Don't do it again. This time there will be no redemption for you.”

“Maybe a majority, not a vast majority or it would be done already because your side's politicians would have nothing to fear. why do they need political cover if it is a vast majority.”

“Poor woman. She was minding her own business (I mean literally, and not even Alaska's business) when McCain dragged her into national politics.
After seeing thousands at the campaign rallies, something she had not experienced before in "rural" Alaska, she has started to believe that she can make a mark in the national politics.
But poor Sarah, she must be excused if she doesn't know that Iraq is different from Iran. After all, we are talking about a woman who provides testament to her knowledge in foreign affairs by saying she knows Russia well as she can see it from the back of her house!”

Rachel Maddow, Frank Schaeffer Discuss The Latest In Thinly-Veiled Evangelical Christian Obama Death Threats

“As a Christian, I'm ashamed of these so-called evangelical Christians. They should be regarded in the same vein as we shun al Qaeda. Both groups are terrorists.
Evangelists are supposed to be preachers of God's message, not Satan's. The nerve of these guys to call for the death of President Obama. They should be tried for treason.”

“If you look at the participants of the tea party protests, of which Glenn Beck is the chief organiser, it does not come as a surprise that Beck has strong links with white racisits.
Beck has not hidden his racist agenda. Time and again he has called on his viewers to take back the "real" America. It can only mean America with Whites as masters.
His reminiscents of founding fathers every now and then has only one intention: A reminder to his audience that the founding fathers were whites, not Latinos or Blacks, and that the true patriots are white Americans.”

“This is a clear sign that the Republican Party is today a divided party. One group is led by the moderates and the other by the extreme rightwing conservatives who think they are the "real Americans"!
Having said that, I don't see Lindsey Graham a moderate Republican! He is still part of the nay sayer crowd.”

“Republicans cry foul about spending money on the healthcare of the Americans. But they are all for spending billions on waging wars. I cannot understand this!
Can somebody explain to me why spending money on providing healthcare for hardworking Americans tantamounts to placing a debt burden on the children of today and tomorrow but draining out America's resources on waging war of destruction on foreign soil is a very productive endevour?”
