“I am getting increasingly tired of evangelicals, and other religious folks trying to run this country under the name of their imaginary friend, god. They expect us to go along with their B.S. in determining who is qualified for a job in the administration. Enough is enough!!!

Do you here them complain about Vitter,Sandford, or Ensgin still remaining in power after breaking that most solemn of promises that they hold dear, the sanctity of marriage. They are just a bunch of mindless hypocrites.”

“I recall that when 9-11 happened no one on the democratic side of the isle condemned bush for his apparent lack of concern about the information leading up to that disastrous day. We came together as a nation and realized we had to together stand up against the terrorist.

The republicans have one aim, that is to take every opportunity to take down Obama's presidency period. They don't care about cooperating with the country as a whole and trying to make our security the number on priority.

I just hate rethuglicans”

“The only thing about getting older is qualifying for medicare a true single payer system so sorry for the rest of you who don't qualify”

DivergentMary replied on Dec 17, 2009 at 18:51:54

“Not everyone who gets older qualifies for Medicare, either. You need at least 40 quarters in Social Security. I have 15 quarters, and I just turned 65. No Medicare for me . . .

Medicare for all would only be fair if they sever the link between Social Security and eligibility for Medicare.”

“The catholic church is an immoral organization that is filled with hypocrites and pedophiles.
We all know that pedophiles are rarely able to change their ways, so instead of turning them into the police they transfer them to another diocese were they continue there horrible ways.

There is no worse crime than ruining a child's life with this kind of behavior. Yet they try to deny folks communion that they disagree with politically. How can they justify this position and still keep rouge priest on the job dishing out the communion wafer. Is this not a crime as bad as abortion?

When are we going to stop having our politics influenced by bible thumping hypocrites”

“When are we going to get off of the right wing christian evangelical train that is running through all of our politics in America.

These folks are about as slimy as it gets. They preach goodness, and other virtues that they themselves do not live up to.

Mark Sandford, Tom Colburn, John Ensign, and many others associated with the C street house are evil and all you have to do is view the satanic cult behind the scene. Go and see it for yourself at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVrQkunIZXo.

“They did nothing when they were in power except tax breaks for the wealthy, donut hole in medicare, = big profits for big pharma., and a war in Iraq that cost a trillion dollars and is still going on.

Now they want to say "my bad" and expect us to just forget what they did and vote them into office so they can continue were they left off.

Face the facts people the rethuglican party is the party of the wealthy and they spend some of their considerable fortune convincing us, against our own best interests, let them lead us and make the rules for society.

If we want a better life we don't need rethuglicans telling us that the only road to happiness is joining their game and becoming wealthy, you know, THE AMERICAN DREAM!

Lets get rid of the ME generation and replace it with the WE generation”

TParrish replied on Dec 10, 2009 at 10:38:18

“Actually, they have never said the "My Bad" thing. To admit that something was done wrong and to then try to continue to do that same thing would be insane. Making the same mistake over and over, expecting different results. No, they LIKED the results. Starve the government, and bleed the government, and eventually you kill the government. As was said by a Republican pundit, you make it small enough to drag into a bathtub and drown it.

Make no mistake. The position we were in in early January is exactly where the Republican Party wanted to put us. Well, almost. We didn't quite go bankrupt. That's what they actually wanted. Now that it did not happen, they are coming out in favor of fiscal responsibility. They are Buster keaton and Charlie Chaplin in the silent movies, breaking things, then sticking their hands in their pockets and strolling away looking at the sky and whistling.”

“When are we all going to grow up and realize that all these so called religious org.'s
want us to believe in there imaginary friend called god. They want us to believe that, even beyond our common sense nature, that some people need help in this life and they don't need unnecessary impediments, that they are the moral arbitrators and that we all should go along with there interpretations.

Why do we let religious org.'s dictate policy decisions, they need there non profit status looked at.

“This is the exact reason for a single payer system. Health Insurance and health care should not be a for profit proposition. We all lose because the only thing that health providers care about is profit not health care.

If we are as a society are ever going to enjoy the safety of having health care without the worry that we won't be covered for any procedure we need for life sustaining care, that women won't be paying more for coverage, and we will not be dropped from health care..

Health insurance companies are the problem not the solution”
