“CNN profits from the commercials on Dobbs' show. If people boycotted the products advertised on Dobbs' show, CNN would cancel it immediately.”

“During the last election I was puzzled why McCain did not choose his "closest and oldest friend" Lieberman for VP, although he never seemed to leave his side. Now I know why. You simply can't ever trust the guy.”

Why Obama Should Not Have Received the Peace Prize -- Yet

Commented Oct 12, 2009 at 17:14:07 in Politics

“It is obvious that the far-left Nobel peace committee attempted to tie Obama's hands regarding his future decisions. Russian President Medvedev was the only statesman in the world who applauded this award. That proves it.

Obama played it cool. He thanked them politely, and announced that the money will go to charity. Well done!”

Truthtalker1963 replied on Oct 12, 2009 at 18:59:59

“Well, we also have Chavez who loves the guy, Castro who's using his inexperience and buffonery as a propagand piece, Iran's nuts doing the same, and of course, Ghadafi, who wasn't Obama to be President forever. All we lack is N. Korea's support and we have a full house!”

Trublulu replied on Oct 12, 2009 at 17:41:09

“So now the Norwegians on the Nobel Peace Committee are "lefties"? And, no, the Russian President was not the only statesman who applauded our president's award. There were very nice words from the German Chancellor. Maybe she just appreciated the fact that President Obama did try to give her a back massage as did Mr. Bush.”

“Axelrod recently revealed the winning strategy he devised for Obama: run against the incumbent, not the opponent. That's how Obama won against Hillary, and that's how he won against McCain. "Always ask yourself, what Bush would do, and then do the opposite!" -- It worked like a charm.

Of course Obama had the good fortune of following an unpopular president, and of an economic crisis occurring right after McCain had announced: "I know how to win wars -- I know nothing about economics." A dipsy nitwit like Sarah Palin was just icing on Obama's cake.”

Gay Rights Speech: What Should Obama Say Tonight?

Commented Oct 07, 2009 at 21:30:47 in Politics

“The Germans held an election last month and elected the liberal FDP party headed by a gay man. But the socialist Mayor of Berlin is gay, too. All the Germans are presently worried about is whether their newly elected Foreign Minister knows enough English, not that he is also gay. I think former Canadian prime minister Trudeau had it right when he proclaimed that the government has absolutely no business in the bedrooms of the nation. The brilliant Democratic chairman of the House Finance Committee is gay. Does that make him less brilliant? Grow up, people !!!”

“Well said.

You've gotten to the heart of the matter.

Think what would have happened if this was Sarah Palin. HuffPO would dedicate a full page to ridicule her.

And, Letterman only "came (partially) clean" when he was exposed.”

“At this moment, Obama really doesn't need another loss. If he should really win, he won't gain much, but if he loses, it could further damage him in the polls.

From what I read in the foreign press, Rio seems to have the best chances.”

I am sure they have lots of good people, and yet they leave the fate of their party to nitwits, religious fanatics, kooks and racists who only give them a bad name.

“I stopped watching Dobbs ages ago when he started his racist crap. He is against everything that is good about America. Years ago, he would probably have been tried for unamerican activities. Supporting his racism throws a very suspicious light on CNN. They are getting more and more like FOX.”

A Sign of the Times

Commented Sep 13, 2009 at 10:11:15 in Politics

“Begala is right. What happened to the glorious past of the party of Abraham Lincoln? How could patriotic Republicans allow a bunch of racist kooks to take over the reign of their party? The message of screeching demagogues is not what the old GOP used to stand for. Putting up an unstable old man as candidate may have been a strategic error that everyone regrets, but it goes much deeper. After all, the pathetic roster of white male hasbeens that were presented to the primary voters did not give them much of a choice. Yet it isn't that the Republicans have no good candidates available. The point is merely that the party insiders did not put them up.”

texterdexter replied on Sep 13, 2009 at 11:41:53

“I'm really mystified by what "good old days" Republicans remember. The name "James Watt" ring a bell with anyone? Fundamentalist insanity has been cooking in the GOP for a long, long time.”

Downix replied on Sep 13, 2009 at 10:42:06

“It began in the 50's, with the Dixiecrats. Democrats shut-out their right-wing nutzos. Those shut-out formed their own party. Now, the Republican leadership sought out and won over many of them, thanks in part to Reagan led efforts, thinking that more votes is always good. They never realized that by unifying both parties right-wing radicals would unbalance and undermine their own party structure.”

Forsetti replied on Sep 13, 2009 at 10:34:11

“Republicans hitched their wagon to the kooks instead of independents and now they are being led around to the places the kooks love to visit; hate, racism, conspriracies, anger, etc.”

“Have you noticed, that when Obama would talk about Lincoln on the campaign trail, the far right would NOT complain? I think they surrendered their identification with Lincoln long ago, since that progressive f.a.cist commie did something the country really could have done at the beginning but didn't.”

Is the Age of Terror Over?

“Of course there were acts of terrorism before, even against the US in various places around the world. In fact, the World Trade Center itself had been attacked before by people residing right in New York City. Vigilance is obviously the best prevention. Still, the restrictions put on the Canadian border are excessive. No terrorists ever came from Canada. The 9/11 terrorists had boarded those four planes in US airports.

It was Bill Clinton who had drastically reduced the budget of the CIA before 9/11, preventing them from finding out about terrorists' plans.”

“If the GOP does not get rid of the likes of Limbaugh and Palin who now appear to represent the "face" of the party, its image will remain permanently tainted as racist, bigoted and intolerant. There is nothing harder to shed than a bad reputation once you have it.”

“LImbaugh and Palin were mentored in their hate by the southern baptist who's leaders and preachers has been spewing Democratic HATE from their pulpits for over 20 years...they have esteemed the GOP to Diety levels...so...to question the denomination, the GOP, its leaders and politicans is BLASPHMY against the GOD HEAD. They believe this with ever fiber of their being too...this started in baptist pulpits pre Civil War, pre and post Civil Right, and Pre President Obama...and it isn't chagning..their hate is becoming more and more intense as they see POWER slipping away...and GOD ISN'T STRIKING DOWN the Democrats.”

Now we can wait for those wealty corporations and rich folks to step up to the plate and fix our ridiculously pot holed freeways and upgrade the schools and reopen the emergency rooms and help the handicapped and homeless. Yes, that is going to happen.

If you haven't read "The Family", check it out. You will see where this all came from. Or at least you will see why wealthy rich people feel so entitled to do nothing for the commonwealth.
