“Was Adam's performance over the top, of course it was, but it was designed to be that way. And by the time that the show had him on (last if I recall) - all children and purists should have been in bed asleep! As for the "religionists" in America, I gather that you all aren't having sex - because though he pushed the envelope with his "foreplay" - it's obviously something that you've never done?! And for all of those jiggling booty's on those videos heterosexual or not - do we all need to subjected to that 24/7 - someone's watching without complaints!!!”

“While I appreciate the article, I think that what's really being proven is that once again the US has bastardized some other countries food for profit. In Japan, sushi, is prepared by "chefs" that are trained & licensed to prepare this dish! The general tendency is to use Bluefin tuna, and it must be prepared just so, otherwise the results can be anything from diarrhea to death! All for the "profit" of a few....

My question - when there are no longer tuna (or any other fish for that matter) in the sea due to overfishing, what will you wrap in your sushi then?”

“While PETA kinda lost me after the President killed the fly, I can appreciate that the emphasis is on "factory farming" not an endorsement for a vegan lifestyle. And yes, I understand those on this post that want to emphasize "local farmers", however, "local" doesn't necessarily reside everywhere. And while I do try to get most of my meat & produce locally, I also know that I am still lucky enough to be able to afford fresh grown. And while I know that there are some who believe that "buying fresh locally grown" is a choice, my challenge to you is to really try and live on half of what you currently make, and then we can debate exactly how much "choice" is really available to "everyone" everywhere in this good ole USA?!”

“You all realize how frightening this video is? No really, these are our "fellow Americans", dumber than door-nails, more ignorant than a speeding bullet! "Alaska is across the street from Russia", really, Boo-boo you need a geography lesson! "Faux news" watchers all! And a perfect example of why we need more funding in "public education"!!! Yeah, this country really is in trouble!”

“Once again, the banksters are THE PROBLEM! While I am willing to say - it's about time someone in Congress actually started thinking about our UNEMPLOYEED Americans, I'm angry that the banksters - given OUR TAX DOLLARS HAVE NOT ONLY NOT REALLY RENEGOTIATED MORTGAGES, OR STARTED TO LEND, BUT HAVE THE NERVE TO GIVE THEMSELVES BONUSES!! WTH?!?!”

“Wow, this guy sounds as though he has an attitude! The nerve of Congress to actually stand up for "WE THE PEOPLE" over Oligarchy Profits - THE NERVE! Of course the American people should continue bending over so the CEO's can make their money!! What were "we" thinking! Keep it up Oligarchy, I'm warming up the tar as I write this!!!!”

“More people that need to go to jail, go directly to jail - DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT YOUR PERCENTAGE!!!”

“While the Oligarchy has been trying to regain their control since the reforms of the great Depression, it was that revered rethugnikan Ronald Reagan that really let the Oligarchy know that government was on their side! And the Oligarchy with their bought & paid Whores in Congress (both rethugnikan & democrat) have been screwing the "average American" ever since! Let's be truthful, when these "captains of finance" almost destroyed the economy as part of the bail-out they should have been forced to renegotiate most of those mortgages - the Oligarchy barked, and their whores in Congress did as their masters wanted!

We the people have been dumbed down and divided by bullshit issues, when the real issues are that many of the people that we've put in Congress are selling out our collective interests to maintain their own power and privilege via the Oligarchy! This must stop! We've got to wake up, and start voting these bastards out of office, regardless of "political affiliation"! We need people in office like Mr. Kucinich, Mr. Sanders, and Mr. Grayson - people that understand and stand up for the "average American" because they understand why they were sent to Congress!”

“First really reform finance laws, NO PAC/PRIVATE DONATION MONEY - period! Next voters, get these bought out whores off of the government & corporate payrolls! And why would someone that is obviously "pro affair" (as in: he cheated on his wife), be taken seriously? Exactly...­.......”

“It's really too bad that the angry po' white guys/gals at these "Tea-Parties" haven't realized that they are being screwed by the rhetoric! These people who "Love Ronald Reagan" don't want to recognize that when he fired the striking Air Traffic Controllers, he tacitly sent a signal to BIG BUSINESS that it was ok to screw over the "Average American worker", the working people of this country have been at war ever since! And if those ignorant apathetic sheeple on the right would only pay attention they would see that the very people they listen to and vote for are pushing an agenda for the Oligarchy! In all of these years that "taxes have been cut" my taxes as a percentage of my income have increased, while my income has not! Come on sheeple, wake up and pay attention!!!!”

“I love this man - he is a real hero for ALL AMERICANS!!! Keep on Mr. Grayson, WE THE PEOPLE ARE BEHIND YOU!!!”

“Now that Congress is awakening from the slumber produced by the money many have been raking in from the banksters, and realize that their reckless deregulation and "Free-Market" ideology have enabled the avarice & graft that are threatening to bring down this economy - we should all breathe easier, right? As much as I'd like to believe that thought, I am still not comforted!

What Congress should do:

1)Reenact some version of Glass-Stegall!
2)Commit to refunding & giving these agencies the teeth that they need and were created to monitor & prevent this type of mess from happening again- work!
3)Stop the revolving door between government/Wall Street/Ban­ksters/Lob­byists!
4)Start public funding of elections (NO PAC MONEY/NO PRIVATE MONEY) to keep every politician honest!

Just a few thoughts to help them out!!!”

“At first I thought this was a joke RONFLMAO, then I realized this was for real :( !!!!!

But seriously, Bush and debate oxymoron, right? :)”

“""Let's not whine too much about me," he said. "I'm a wealthy, affluent American in the big picture." "

No, I 'm not whining for you at all! You have the luxury to have enough money to cover your costs, but what about those that don't have that luxury?! Not to mention, what would you do if say, your medical condition actually wiped out your finances - would you change your tune then?!”

“While I applaud this woman for taking the hypocrite to task, it's about time some of these constituents start paying attention to the people that they keep putting into office! That these politicians continue to vote against the interests of the American people for the Corporate Oligarchy should by now be extremely apparent to every one in this nation! In this case the "Defense Contractors" that contribute heavily to the PAC's and campaign contributions - disgusting, vote these bastards OUT NOW!!!”

“"We are not going to allow our [movement] to be stolen by the GOP or by any political party."

They already have! When they fell for the incoherent ramblings of a "grade B actor", and continued to fall for the lies about "the FREE-MARKET & getting the GOVERNMENT OFF OF THE BACK OF THE PEOPLE", yep, that's when as a nation we started sliding downhill! The final push over the edge was the theft of the election in 2000 with George W. Bush, someone that never successfully ran a company unless it was too the ground! Someone who as Governor of Texas presided over the state with one of highest teen-pregnancy rates, highest drop-out rates, and some of the lowest test scores in the nation! Then again they had "G-d", so I guess it was alright! However, for the nation as a whole we're continuing to scrape the bottom for an ideology that is bankrupting the people (both financially & morally) even as the Oligarch is getting richer!!!”

“While she is fashionable, she is also young. And as a role model showing Jordanian women that they can be modest, dress nice, and needn't be covered up! Bravo....”

“And this is "important" because he obviously understands the quality of gold?! 14k is actually the cheapest, but Americans lap it up because they don't know any better! 18-22K anyone?????”

“I take it that those Rethugnikans blaming President Obama are the ones that still deny reality?! I'd like to believe that these people will wake up, and realize that they've bought that non-existent bridge, and then their anger will be directed towards those that deserve it - the very obstructionists they've put into office!!!”

“"Normally I would applaud a bi-partisan pain in the a--! In this case, since it appears that he loves Muskogee so much, maybe his constituents should do him and the nation a favor by letting him stay there permanently!”

“Right now with at least 50 million without any insurance, this is the best we can do! Either they will stand and really "Represent" their constituents now, or they will be replaced in the next election cycle! They can continue to offer pablum in the hopes that their constituents are still "SO PROUD" of the people they sent to Washington, or they can say good bye to their Corporate funders that oppose any reform - you see it really is up to them!!!!”

“For these people to act like the constituents don't matter, when it is their constituents that are really paying the price is really a lot of nerve! Both Lincoln & Beyh have high rates of uninsured in their states, people that anxiously await the "health-care fairs" that go on in their states! Vote against the people at your own risk, because your constituents will remember that when they go to the polls!”

“"Together, the seven legislators have personally steered more than $200 million in earmarks to clients of the PMA Group in the past two years, and received more than $6.2 million in campaign contributions from PMA and its clients in the past decade....­"

Well of course there is a link! Another perfect example of why Public Funding of Elections (NO PAC $$) should be a requirement of a just society! And while we're at it can we also shut the revolving door between those in and getting out of government service and the Lobbyists on K Street!!!!”

“Not only do these turn-coast need to be voted out, WE'VE ALL GOT TO KEEP THE HEAT ON THEM TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC OPTION! AND HOW ABOUT INCREASING TAXES ON THE 5% OF AMERICANS THAT HAVE BEEN REAPING REWARDS HAND OVER FIST!!!”

“As Americans have been dumbed down and divided by "faux issues" we've allowed our democracy to become co-opted and over-taken by the Oligarchy! The "Great Depression" of 1929 - should have proven to us that there is a way out of this morass that we've allowed "our elected officials" to create! Outsourcing, "faux free trade", massive deregulation, wars, and the greatest economic divide since the roaring '20's led by the corrupt avarice banksters, politicians, and large corporations, deregulation, and the undoing of our democracy has ensued!

While "we" all will continue to have our differences the one thing that we should all be able to agree on is that our current economic crises are vastly affecting the lower to middle of our society! Those that continue to push the "unregulated free markets" are obstructionists and need to be dumped along with the rest of the Wall Street trash! The very people that got this nation into this mess are not the people we need to depend on to lift the country out of the very same mess! We need rules, regulations, and people that cannot be bought to stand up to the tide of avarice and indifference of the few! We also need to close the revolving doors of government, so that there will no longer be a minority benefiting off of "we the people"!!”
