“Rubbish!
While I totally disagree with his positions on most things, he at least thinks, reasons and argues the way one should when developing policies.
He also rarely attacks the person, just the idea/argument.
Watch Brooks and Shields go at it.......a breath of fresh air, 'cause they THINK before speaking, unlike most other journos on air.”

President Obama and Gay Rights: Forgetting the Lessons of the Campaign
Commented Nov 05, 2009 at 22:32:11 in Politics
“I'm glad to see that Gays are progressive.
Now I will wait to see if they are patient enough to let the man they helped elect do his job and fulfill his promises in the sequence that he sees fit. He can be reevaluated in 2012, if he puts his name on the ballot. Who needs all this grief from so called supporters.
You can always vote republican, or just stay home.
The results will be the same.
Maybe a republican president will put the Gay agenda first.”

“It isn't the gay community (or the left in general) that's preventing Obama from doing his job. Obama keeps making his own choice not to lead.”

“Just because I am Gay and Progressive does not mean my choice, in spending time and money, is Obama or Republicans. I can, do and will chose to spend my funds and time on candidates who unabashedly support GLBT civil rights; Obama is not such a candidate. Of course in 2012 he will be nominated for President and I will vote for him. But he will not get one cent of my funds or one second of my time. Perhaps these independents whom he allegedly panders to will support him with time and money. In my opinion Obama has ignored his base, when he sees the consequences he will pander to us, it will be too late.”

Why I Have Some Empathy for Balloon Boy's Dad

“I have come to the conclusion that 24 hour news networks are hazardous to our mental health.
In order to fill that amount of time they have to sensationalize the tiniest incident. They bring you the breathy teaser about what someone said or someone did and they make it out to be so earth shattering then when they finally do cover it it's almost like an anticlimax, spending an average of 30 seconds on it.
They build it up and don't deliver. It's yellow journalism at its best.
I finally understand why MSNBC plays all those documentaries on the weekends; far better than the continuous loop of hogwash that the other networks run. I just wish they would get off the prison shows and show some educational or historical documentaries.
I now check on the hour or the half hour to see if there are any actual news updates. And I limit myself to Keith, Rachel, and sometimes Ed. And I usually just watch segments of those shows.”

If it had been his radio show, doubtful he would have made more than a passing comment once they knew the boy was safe.
But, boy didn't that look like a flying Jiffy Pop container?”

“It's not just about health care AFTER a woman gives birth.
The most important health care should be delivered BEFORE a woman gets pregnant to ensure that she is in good health and will have the healthiest baby possible.
And then then the prenatal health care given DURING a pregnancy is of utmost importance.
How do they reconcile denying health care to pregnant women and yet be against abortion?
It defies logic.”

“Why would Kyl care about the illogic of anti-abortion vs no maternity care? As he said, he doesn't need it. He's not faced with the weight of an abortion decision and he doesn't have to juggle a low-wage job with raising a baby alone. Why should he care?

And p.s., we're in all colors Sheriff Joe. We have dark brown to albino white skin, we have black hair to towheads, we have dark brown eyes to light blue, green and gray.

“If you take a moment to analyze his comment; it becomes more and more ludicrous.
Aren't the republicans against abortion?
How are these pregnancies supposed to be cared for?
If he wants to keep cost down, then wouldn't covering abortion make more sense if your main focus is to cut spending? Instead of 9 months of health care followed by an individual with health care needs for approx 70 plus years you would only spend on one outpatient procedure.
Their logic about health care makes as much sense as their present protectionism for Medicare when just a few months ago they voted to phase Medicare out..
And taking maternity care out of a policy for males only works if those same males never marry and include a wife on their policy.
Or if those same males only marry other males.
Boggles the mind if you think about it too much.
But, that's what happens when you try to make reactionary policy instead of thoughtful policy.”
