“I don't know what constitutes our 1st amendment rights - freedom to spew hate I guess is OK.”

“I will leave it with you to judge....”

“On Star is a GM Product, but he voted against Auto Bailout for GM and Chrysler as he has Japanese Auto plants in TN.”

“Really? Republicans had a majority in both houses of congress thru 2002-2006 and they acted as a rubber-stamp of Bush. So please don't tell me that Republicans are not responsible for the debacle.”

“How else would you term our reluctance to bring the Draft back? If we really want to make Afghanistan America's war, we need to bring the draft back. Hell I have a 21/2 year old, I know he will be affected. But I know that others will be affected too and realize war is not the answer to anything.”

“I don't care whether you are republican or democrat -all of us are suffering. This can be a fuel for massive unrest, and the republicans are currently seizing the initiative. Only reason nobody buys their argument is that these Tea Party organizers are the same people who are responsible for this debacle. I hope democrats can find a way to really help job creation and come out of this quagmire created by Bush.”

“I do not know what it would take to get people's support as not all of us are aware of the nuts and bolts of the Healthcare Legislation. But to contain the 8-20% hike EVERY YEAR in your premiums, this has to be passed. Many of you don't see the premium hike as your employer is eating up the added cost, but some of you will see them if it is not passed - I guarantee that.”

“All they could find in Italy is a 72 year old guy!! How sad!!”

“And she is very smart, right? Right????? I only hear silence, no response.”

“And 9/11 happened under whose watch - again?”

“What bites me is that they could show Madonna and Brittany kissing, but not 2 guys. That is discrimination.”

“This is getting interesting.”

“My wife and daughter stayed in a hospital for 3+4 days (total 7 days) and I paid USD 120 for the whole thing in my home country Bangladesh. While they were there, they had 24/7 doctor and nurse attendance plus round the clock specialist review.”

“So the diplomacy worked and we are getting a good deal on our debt - unlike the common people's experience with the banks/credit card companies.”

“It is Schmidt who created this Frankenstein - now he has to destroy it. Or else it will devour all republican hopes for 2012.”

“And lying is a part of "Fair and Balanced" news coverage. I rest my case, but do see this clip - Faux News is caught red-handed.”

“Allan is not working in a vacuum, it is his master Murdoch and his cronies who are the true enemies of this great nation of ours. I am sure if Allan is taken into custody and 'waterboarded', more information will come out. Let's send all of Murdoch's execs to Gitmo and save journalism.”

“And why am I not surprised!!”

“More proof that these people are not Americans and they ALL should be deported!!!”

“If Faux had one ounce of reputation, I would call it newsworthy.”

“Fight between dogs, who cares?”

“90% of Sen Snowe’s home state of Maine’s health insurance market is dominated by Blue Cross and she is 'Deeply Disappointed' that Public Option is in the Senate Bill? People of Maine, you need a new senator.”

“My friends, this is an opportunity of a lifetime to make it right. For the last 100 years, we had been trying to make Health Care for All possible in this great nation of ours. We became a Great Nation not by our wealth alone, but also the process and practices that we put in place. In 19th century, we were no-where. But in next century, thanks to FDR we ensured that we took care of our fallen and poor, we took care of the disabled and hungry and homeless. And then it happened and we became the greatest nation on Earth where everyone on earth wanted to be an American. We did not bring the fall of Soviet Empire by sheer might, but the prospect of a free life beyond the iron curtain helped our cause. We did not make the world come together on 9/11, but the shared prosperity of the Clinton years made others feel really sad for us. We did not bring a coalition of force in 1st Gulf War by handshakes and under-the-table dealings, but the shared threat made all of us to pitch in. Friends, we can still rise to the occasion and make Healthcare a reality.”

“For once in my life, I agree with Lou Dobbs.....­..........­.”
