“Lobby $ = bribery. It's inescapable, regardless of party. The only problem with DeFazio's analysis,
my disappointment with Democrats won't result in my embrace of Republicans. Like a lot of Americans who feel they have been sold out, I guess I'm without representation.”

“If Broder were my next door neighbor, I might listen to him, but he's a wealthy gasbag like every other print and television pundit, none of whom need to worry about making their insurance payments.
The idea that anyone speaks for the average person is a laugh. If you're wealthy, you don't speak for me. If you receive lobby money, you don't speak for me. If you just got a lucrative book deal, you don't speak for me.”

“Because Obama hasn't done things in the timely manner you expect, does that really mean he's more concerned with apperance and presentation? Has the president told you that? Or is that your knee jerk reaction?”

“Yes, he told me that -- with his actions. I presume you didn't mean personally speaking it to me because that would be dumb.”

“If Palin is all that conservatives require of a candidate, fine. Nominate and support her for 2012.
Personally, I welcome a full airing of her social and policy philosophies.”

“She won't even make it out of the primaries. Running against other more qualified members of her party, they will be forced to air her shortcomings during debates and she will crumble.”

“Like Bush, Palin shows little intellectual curiosity. She confuses certainty, absent introspection, with being principled. Little about her shows an inquiring or restless mind. In that regard she is not in the same league as the Obamas or the Clintons. Should she become president in 2012, this nation will get exactly what it deserves.”

Tourex replied on Nov 17, 2009 at 10:37:43

“An intelligent, inquiring, restless mind, would never endorse a snake like Jon Corzine--unless of course they're an unprincipled snake themselves which is Obama and which is poison to all honest thinking and governing.”

"Couples Retreat" Poster In UK Removes Black Couple

Commented Nov 16, 2009 at 01:24:28 in Entertainment

“Whether Faizon appears on the poster or not, how is his method of making a living affected? Do poster pix determine which films you see? The real point is that sometimes the black guy gets cut from the photo and sometimes he doesn't, as do many actors of all colors and both genders who sometimes end up on the cutting room floor. Sometimes a decision is not racial, and that is the hard lesson to learn -- having the wisdom and common sense to know and appreciate the difference.”

“In reviewing my personal photo albums, I've noticed that other races and genders are under represented. I'm having those races and genders photoshopped in.”

“Please, don't be an ass! The point is that Faizon is just as known as most of the other actors in the film, yet only he and the other person of color were removed from the UK version. This isn't about someone's personal items, this is about their method of making a living.”

“If you find it necessary to blame public education, then do your homework. Find out what is being taught. Then tell us what should be taught. You are no better than the products of the system you criticize if your own reasoning is general and lazy.”

“You can't....Teachers UNIONs, ACLU and the left OWN the schools. In Memphis, they MANDATED a new law and starting this year, a kid can miss as many days of school as his or her parents allow, fail to show that he or she has mastered much of anything, but the child will go with his or her classmates to the next grade.

Come fourth grade, students can be held back a grade, but only once in grades 4-8.

That's not the only change the district is trying. Gone are grades, like "A" through "F," for the youngest children. And gone are "report cards."

So, there is no guarantee that the child will even be able to read once they reach middle school.

“After almost a year, I am anxious to return to more tax cuts for the wealthy, because lots of jobs will be created you know. And we won't have to have health care forced on us. When companies compete, just like oil companies, prices will go down. No more abortion and gun control. Maybe we'll even get In God We Trust on both sides of our coins. But what I miss the most is the constant drumbeat of fear. By golly, maybe we can even get into a third war. I want my country back.”

Once again we are witness to multi-millionaires who, through their words and actions, show they have nothing but utter contempt for average Americans.”

“Not sure why celebrities go there. History tends not to be on the side of high profile celebrity relationships. Public proclamations of 'forever' often feel like pre-emptive strikes against the other person. Hope it does work out, but most people won't be surprised if it doesn't.”
