“SEE! Exactly as I have been saying about Lieberman!! He has this Israeli mind set of war and retribution that has kept the Terroists in business..especially against Israel. If we adopted his way of thinking, there would be ten times as many Terrorists roaming around.

I think we should try a different tactic: We should take a stand against Israel by telling them to get their soldiers out of Palistinian territiry and making them allow the supply of Food, Water, and Heating Fuel to flow freely to the Palistinian people. We should also stop them from blocking Building Materials. Then, we would not have Terrorists trying to kill us. Then, we would put the resonsibility on the people that are causing all of the problems and make things come to a head. If we did this I think we would see a turn for the better in the World dynamic concerning Terrorism.

Just my Opinion”

“You are sooo very correct about allowing Republicans to run as Democrats. Just look at the mess we have on our hands with Blanche Lincoln, Ben Nelson, etc.....These people are not even close to agreeing with the Democratic Platform. A Party member should, at least, agree with the basic Platform of the Party. Now a days, it seems that Candidates select the party that is most likely to get them elected.”

“Man or ash,
You mean the way the Republicans stand before the people, claiming to be great Christians, as they walk down onto the Floor of the Congress to Vote against every Bill and Program that goes to help the Poor, the Handicapped, the Elderly, and our Children.(Directly against the Teachings of Jesus Christ)
And, the way the Republicans tell the people that they are the true Patriots of this Country as they Vote against every Bill to help the Veterans, and our Military personnel, all the while commiting acts of Treason against the Country by outing Top-Secret CIA Agents and destroying the entire Counter-Proliferation Division of the CIA.

These are the People that you support? I think someone has been Duped!”

“I think Dodd is refering to Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln etc..... and perhaps the YOU LIE guy.”

“FOX, We do NOT want Torte Reform! This is just another way the Republicans can take away our power to hold Doctors and Hospitals accountable for their misdeeds. Torte reform means you and I can not punish those responsible for hacking us up on the Operating Table or giving us the wrong Drugs. Torte Reform is supposed to cut down on frivilous lawsuites but that is not what the Republicans are doing. Their idea of Reform is to stop us from getting any sizable awards through legal means and, thereby, letting the Insurance Companies, Doctors, and Hospitals off of the hook. Don't be fooled by the Republican BS Machine.”

“Just exactly what is it that Dean has to gain from this? How is it that he is simply helping himself? Sometimes I read posts on this blog that are down-right outside of the realm of Logic.”

“december,
I guess looking at the facts and all of the bad that is in the Bill doesn't matter, as long as you believe in Obama. Howard Dean is correct about the Bill, in it's current form. It is a big piece of Crap. If you listen to the Dems on TV lately, it is more about NOT losing to the Republicans than it is about the stinky Bill they are pushing.
If they manage to pass this Bill, it will kill the Democratic party for another generation. On the other hand, if they fall back and pass something good through Reconsiliation, everyone will forgive and forget. As self destructive as the Dems are, they will probably choose to do the wrong thing.”

“Kid, What you are saying is nonsense! If you can find ANY INSURANCE PLAN that is ONLY $200 Per Month, please tell us where. Health Insurance costs a Minimum of $450 per Month and that is a basic, crappy, plan. If you want a Plan that has good coverage with low deductables and low co-pays, it will cost you about $650/mo. I think you are only including what the Employee pays on top of what the Employer is paying. Most companies that offer Health Insurance pick up about 60 to 70% of the cost and make you pay the rest. You are also responsible for all of the co-pays and deductibles. There has not been a $200 plan available since the eighties.”

“You must be out of your mind! The Bill Mandates that we all must buy Insurance, it allows Ins. Co's. to charge the high-risk and the Elderly a lot more, it gives them loop-holes to get around pre-existing conditions, and there is no way to contain increases in our premiums. They are going to pass this into LAW. Howard Dean is 100% correct. This is worse than doing nothing. They should scrap this Bill and simply pass an expansion of Medicare through Reconciliation. I have been hearing that they could do the expansion based on income without any trouble.
I hate to say something so drastic, but, if Obama and the Dems sign this bugger into Law, we need to storm the Capitol and take back our Government. This is one of our Rights under the Constitution.”

“I am not going to say that Joe is not worth going after but it seems to make more sense to me if we donate our money to the Democratic Party. All this talk of not showing up to vote and being angry at Obama is misplaced. Yes! We need to get rid of those Dems that do not vote like Dems and Yes! we need to voice our displeasure at what is going on but what will really make a difference is getting more Dems elected and getting good candidates to run against those ConservaDems in a Primary. Not showing up to vote is just going to punish us and hurt what we really want. We need to get more active and turn out more people at the polls. We are soooo close to getting the things we want and it would be really dumb to conceed to the Republicans. If we can make "one more giant push" and our Baby will be born, it makes sense to stay focused and get it done.”

“Although you are correct that there are simply too many Republicans advising Obama, we need to go after those responsible for screwing up the Democratic Congress. We need to go after Lincoln, Nelson, Landrieu, Lieberman and the rest of those that call themselves Democrats but vote like Republicans. We can not afford to lose focus and scatter our attacks against too many targets at once. Lets go after the worst of them, first, and get the rest of them later. If we organize our focus, we can be more effective and get it done. Besides, after we get rid of the first wave, the message will be sent to those that remain and it will curb their behavior back over to our side of the Isle.”

“Despite the fact that we Dems won all of the races and the majority voted for Dems, OUR MEDIA AND PRESS OUTLETS REFUSE TO GIVE US REPRESENTATION AND FAIR COVERAGE. ALL YOU HERE ON TELEVISION THESE DAYS IS PURE GARBAGE FROM THE RIGHT-WING CRAPHEADS. They have systematically taken over the Media of this country and we are all paying the price for it. I predict there will be a revolt against the Government and the Media, both. I only hope it is soon.”

“I keep telling everyone and I will keep telling everyone, there is no ideology to what the Republicans are doing. They are using a Tactic!! Not an Ideology!! Their Tactic of voting NO ON EVERYTHING TO DESTROY THE DEMOCRATS......REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT DOES TO THE COUNTRY, has nothing to do with Ideological differences. They do not care what is in a Bill or how much good it will do for the country. You could put forward a Bill that did everything they say they stand for and contain everything they wanted and they would still vote against it...period!
Especially if it would help the country and make the Democrats look good.

TACTIC TACTIC TACTIC not Ideology.”

“George
Wow! Your leaders really have pumped up Acorn into this extremely powerful, extremely influencial, organization. They have been made soooo powerful that they are now capable of toppling the country and the world. I suppose, next, you will inflate Moveon.orgg" into an organization that is secretly running the world and the illuminatti are under their control. Are you wearing your Aluminum-Foil Hat again?

I would be interested in following you around for a week just to see how it is that a person can get so F___ed-up in the Brains. If I waved a Flag in your Face and screamed Patriotic slogans, would you believe any lie I tell you? Well! That seems to be what they are doing to you. I doubt you know what a Patriot really is.”

“It only takes one person to filibuster...Dimwit! It takes 60 votes to stop a filibuster.”

“The only areas where we have the best Healthcare Technology is mainly in Plastic Surgery. When the Republicans say that people from all other country's come to the U.S. for our Hospitals and Doctors, they leave out the part about what kind of Doctors and for what type of treatment. Those Countries with Universal Coverage do not cover, or have a long wait for, Elective Surgeries such as cosmedic and Plastic surgery. If you want to get rid of those big Bags under your Eyes, it does not affect your Health and, therefore, does not get covered. Because it is not covered, there are not many Doctors that specialize in it. Hence, we have the best and they come here to get it done. Other than that, they would never come here to get treatment for cancer or any other ailment that is covered by their Universal coverage. In fact, we go to forign countries to get a wider range of Cancer options and treatments. Stop buying into the Republican bullshit!”

“I can answer that. They tell huge lies while they deny doing it, they listen to people that do nothing but lie to them with full knowledge that they are being lied too but deny it, they ingore the truth all the while telling themselves the end justifies the means, and they just flat-out don't want to know. They stand back and watch their Elected Republican officials commit acts of Treason against America while they listen to rhetoric about how they are the great Patriots. They watch their Republican officials vote against any and all Bills that go to help the Poor, the Handicapped, and the Elderly (Directly against the teachings of Jesus Christ) while claiming to be Christians etc....

Does that answer your Question?”

“"42 percent of Republicans believe that President Obama was not born in the United States, while 22 percent still remain uncertain of his birthplace origin. On the flip side, the poll also finds that 25 percent of Democrats believe that George W. Bush intentionally allowed the September 11th attacks to occur to serve as a catalyst for a war in the Middle East."


For Christ's sake! This comparison is just ludicrous! The cumulative effect of all of the lies that George Bush told stripped our ability to dissuade our doubt. At the point he was being accused of having a hand in knocking down the Twin Towers there had been so many lies that it was hard to doubt that it was a possibility. In other words, we wouldn't put it past him.

Name "just one" lie that Obama has told the public. Don't include things he has not done yet.”

“The real-life Charlie Brown, I mean, Jonathan Alter, has been spewing this garbage for quite a while now. He has been wrong about the Bill and what it will do and he seems to ignore that there is no competition to hold down the high cost of HealthCare. It is as if he has taken Bribes from the Insurance Industry. Ed Schultz has had this arguement with his for weeks now. Jonathan keeps saying the same thing and keeps ignoring the facts. I think Alter has sold his soul to the Insurance giants.

I like it when Ed has both Charlie Brown(Jonathan Alter) and Vilma from Scooby-Do(Margerite Carlson(sp)) on the show at the same time.”

“Get them a few Documentaries that point out the truth about the Right-Wing Nutjobs. It might open their eyes.”

“Obama has made some great errors and it is because he is still listening to Campaign people instead of making the transition over to the right people for advise. He is also listening to Political wonks to steer his decisions. Another problem concerning the War, he is being led by Republicans McChrystal and Gates. Its as if he doesn't realize these guys are not coming from a level-headed direction. He needs to change the Guard in the Pentagon and get smart Liberals to help in the War decisions. Obama has kept too many Republicans in too many positions of Power and has a problem with allowing others to spend his Political Capitol on wrong headed policies. Before its over, he will have spent his Political Capitol on nothing of value...then it will be too late.”

“It sure seems to me that the so-called Bluedogs are not really Democrats, at all. Did the Republicans plant a bunch of operatives in the Democratic lineup? These people are not only against HealthCare, they are trying to abolish freedom of Chioce. I don't care if they are calling themselves Conservative Democrats or not. They are just plain "not Democrats. All of the Liberal organizations should pool money and get rid of these horrible Legislators and get some real Democrats to take their place. They are destroying the Democratic Party. If I could win a huge Lottery I would run Damning adds in their districts and inform the people of their obstructionist crap.”

“78, Hey..Nutbag!!... That 400 Billion is closer to 500 Billion and "it goes directly into the pockets of the Health Insurance company". It does NOTHING to make our parents health care better. It is a waste of Taxpayer Money. Further, there will never be any Illegals covered by the Federal Dollars that are going into this Bill. They will have to purchase their own Private Plan if they want it.
As for the economy, the Government has always controlled the economy since day one. Every Government in every country controls their Economy.

As for that figure of 62 percent not wanting a Single-payer System...THERE IS NO SINGLE PAYER SYSTEM BEING OFFERED!!! DUFUS!! But, 68% of Americans DO WANT a Public Option. and nearly 70% of Americans DO WANT a Healthcare reform Bill.

You just keep listening to uninformed Radio....it really makes you look like an IDIOT!!”

“He certainly got a lot of practice with his putter.”

“someone who is doing what all men have done some time in their lives.

I don't know what world you live in or what kind of people you surround yourself with, but, I have never cheated and I know many Men that have never cheated. In fact, I have absolutely "NO RESPECT" for anyone, Man or Woman, that doesn't have enough character to keep their Vows. The big problem today is that most people think Marriage is something you can just treat like a Sports game. Cheating is allowed and expected. This is why Marriages fail so often.
Before I got Married, I told my wife that I had one promise that could not be broken. We had to have enough respect for one another to inform the other "before an affair took place". That way we could end our relationship in a respectful way, with no surprises. I also told her that any cheating would be the end of our Marriage...period...no counciling...no chance for forgivness..period.”
