Snowe Voting Yes On Senate Finance Health Care Reform Bill
Commented Oct 13, 2009 at 19:55:14 in Politics
“Glad to have you back, Ryan. I appreciate how you commented on Snowe placing herself at risk of being marginalized had she voted no. No one else gets down under the muck like that and extracts the motives of these politicians.
As for the general commentary, Snowe is still a Republican, making sure that a bunch of outdated obstructionist GOP ideas make it into the bill. As much as I would like to thank her for the vote of confidence, I'd rather have her thrown out of office and have another Democrat in that seat.”

(Their totals since 2000 are $266 billion for Lockheed and $125 billion for Northrop.)

“yeah, you're right. unlike the republicans, who are shameless, the democrats are spineless and that makes you ultimately correct. happen to believe public option is a good thing and would like to see the dems try and fail or succeed but do something b/c health care SUCKS.

Cheney Accuses Obama Of Politicizing Justice Department
Commented Aug 25, 2009 at 13:41:06 in Politics
“Obama must being doing something right if Cheney came out crying so quickly....he's trying to beat the wave that's about to crash on his head and all the other republican apologists out there. I believe Obama knows what he's doing and knows that if he stops this thing at any point in time the media will communicate to the public how he's stopped an investigation and the Left will therefore not vote for him in '12. ...and I dont buy that jazz about Panetta being so "enraged" by the decision; that's just to keep the rank and file at the CIA feeling like they have the "Chief" on their side.”

“the sad part is that we knew obama would sell out on this one and we still voted for him hoping that he wouldnt. oh well. if we simply accept that we live in a country where there are powerful interests who control our futures, then its easier to go about the day.
i for one am tired of reading the same headlines, day after day, in which nothing truly improves, only gets more and more out of reach as far as having a fair govt is concerned.”

“unfortunately, there's no hope. this country is doomed and we should all become accustomed to that fact sooner rather than later. There are too many interests who wont let go without resorting to violence or at least civil disobedience. too bad we're too lazy to go out to the streets and protest. too bad b/c unless that happens, nothing will change.”

http://digg.com/politics/Rep_Pete_Sessions_Taliban_is_a_model_for_GOP
The Republicans would rather see the economy tank all the way, the try to spin the blame on the dems for 2010 and 2012, for their own political ends. They've been at it with a vengeance for the last 15 years, why stop now? Lost seats in Congress be damned!
Inertia is a powerful force, regardless of party. This is a systemic problem that makes popular unrest more necessary. I don't think things have gotten bad enough to get people out in enough force. Obama'a moderate path needs a push from the people, who aren't all in yet.”
