“Make no mistake, the screaming repub's are not afraid of terrorists (that's just cover). What they are really afraid of is that their dirty shenanigans would come out in a trial for all to see. IMHO.”

“Co-sign. Because of the anti-intellectual bent (not to mention willful ignorance and deficits in cognitive thinking and reasoning skills) of this "base", it is easy to write them off as inconsequential. But they do vote. They may only be voting for whomever the pundit of the day tells them to, but it's still a vote. Furthermore, this voter "base" is easily manipulated into making a lot of noise in favor of positions that work against their own interests. Some of those manipulators have deep pockets, and lots of $ for funding faux protests like we've seen with this year's astro-turf movement.
Our only antidote is to vote! To say "I won't vote for xxx because he/she didn't support my favorite wedge issue" is to sit back and let the loonies in. I shudder to think of the results of that!”

“True. Her heroism is not in question. But I wish the full story had come out in the beginning, so that both police officers could get their full share of credit.
Also, as mentioned above, it damages the military's and the media's credibility once again. This one time, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt because of the chaos & confusion in the immediate aftermath of the incident. But no more of this, please!
Meanwhile, my best wishes to Officer Munley for a full recovery from her injuries.”

“And there's this, from today's headlines at Democracy Now:
Study: Unsafe Abortions Burdening Developing Nations
A new study says unsafe abortions are putting an additional financial burden on struggling health systems in Africa and Latin America. The Guttmacher Institute says the treatment of complications from unsafe abortions results in up to $280 million in extra costs each year.
Yes, let's move even closer to becoming a third-world country, with Stupak & the the C street gang leading the way!
PS: add the Catholic Church to that, too!”

“I was trying to say that I'm pro-choice but anti-abortion. I think a lot of people feel the same way. I believe abortion is wrong but I don't want the government telling women what to do. The choice should still be up to the individual woman.
I think as a man you have a right to voice your opinion and I understand how difficult it must be when a father doesn't want the mother to abort. However, ultimately it is the woman's body and I don't think any man has the right to tell here what she can do with it.”

“Well, buck up, kiddo! Political activism is a way of life, and the need for citizen involvement never ends. I got started protesting the Vietnam War back in the 60s, and now, 40 yrs later, I'm still fighting - and not complaining about having to do so!”
