“Awards???? If this movie gets any awards it should be BUZZ KILL OF THE YEAR award. As one of millions of Americans who have been laid off for quite some time I found this movie to be extremely depressing and lacking any social commentary. Yeah, Clooney gave his usual great performance. Who cares!

Sandra Day O'Connor: Stop Electing Judges
Commented Sep 15, 2009 at 00:04:28 in Politics
“I'm sorry but if we shouldn't be electing them in the first place then why should we be voting for them later on to see if they are doing a good job?
She is right - electing judges is a bad idea. Who the hell really knows who they are voting for? Most people can't name their congressperson.
Judges have direct impact on people's lives everyday judges with political parties imply they follow a specific ideology.
Vetting and hearings are the best way to appoint them.”

Warren Inauguration Prayer Could Draw More Ire
Commented Dec 31, 2008 at 14:09:19 in Politics
“Everyone has a very valid point but what's done is done. Warren has been picked. Barring some huge skeleton from his closet (pun intended) Obama is not going to throw him under the bus. And if you are Warren - you wouldn't turn down this opportunity.
Short of being one of the lucky few to be at the inaugural who can make a visible protest during his invocation (I suggest over a million turning their back to Warren) - Just go get some snacks when he gives his invocation and get over it. It's not like the news wont replay it a millions times anyway to parse it.”

“Why wouldn't he appoint DC Chancellor Rhee? She is a no-nonsense education leader. I know the teachers unions hate her but but she's got guts.”
Camel54 replied on Dec 15, 2008 at 10:19:32
“Because not every school district in America is as problematic as DC and the entire nation doesn't need someone who rules with a baseball bat when a baton is often required. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike Rhee or all of her methods, but it's inappropriate at best to use her Jack Bauer style of education policy across the country. Sure, it looks heroic and no-nonsense and all that movie-of-t he-week-is h, but in reality it would not work for the majority of schools.”

Breaking News -- College Is Unaffordable for Most
Commented Dec 04, 2008 at 19:39:20 in Living
“How exactly is this breaking news? College has always been unaffordable for most. That is why there are all sorts of loans that are needed. Anytime you need to borrow money to obtain something - it is unaffordable. Period.”
Paul replied on Dec 07, 2008 at 12:57:17
“The conventional wisdom is that the loans are an investment in greater earning power.
If that ever changes, colleges will be in for a big let down.”

Lieberman Likely To Retain Prized Committee Chair
Commented Nov 18, 2008 at 05:03:12 in Politics
“I thought the point of this vote was really not about Lieberman during the campaign (although that was the last straw) it was really about his actions over the past 4 years in the senate. The framing of the issue by the MSM and Lieberman only works to his advantage if he is voted for or against. The issue is whether or not the Democratic majority is entitled to chair its own DHS committee - period. The rest is BS.”

Would a McCain Win Mean a Legitimate Government?
Commented Oct 21, 2008 at 20:41:48 in Politics
“Yes because you cannot necessarily determine that is why a majority of the people would have voted "for" him. This was the error in 2000 and 2004. Democrats get so caught up in reasons for getting elected and don't care about getting elected. Bush didn't care that he slandered McCain in SC. He cared that he won that primary! GROW UP! Play the game by the current rules. Not by the rules you want there to be. You don't get points for being the nicest candidate in the world. You only win by winning.”

“Paula,
There are indeed two Americas and there are irreconcilable differences. Why stay in a country that not only acts in ways contrary to your thinking but also spends your money against your will? Aren't you tired of the blue states funding the red states? Think about what would happen if the all the blue state folks just got up and left? There would be no money left to fund the nightmares of the red staters. Naturally there are people of all ideologies mixed in but you get my point. Your argument is naive. This is a battle not dissimilar to Vietnam or Iraq and perhaps there is no way to win - maybe we just need to withdraw?”

“The Main Stream Media seems not to have noticed this - or is conveniently ignoring it.
Sen. McCain appeared to claim that Barry Goldwater's loss was corrected by the assassination of Jack Kennedy in Dallas.
McCain: ...Where I learn is from a town hall meeting. That's where you learn hopes, dreams, aspirations and concerns of Americans who are hurt right now. So if we stood on the stage together, it changes the atmosphere. Many years ago Barry Goldwater and Jack Kennedy had agreed to fly around the country and from one place to another and stand before the American people. I still with Senator Obama would do that.
Leno: ...Look what happened to Barry Goldwater.
McCain: ...As you know the tragedy of Dallas intervened. But I think it would have been great for the American people to see us stand together.
So John McCain does essentially the same thing as Hillary Clinton, and not a peep from the media???”

“It's highly probable the mainstream media is a bit more knowledgeable of American history than you are. Since Goldwater didn't lose to JFK, but lost to LBJ a year after JFK was assassinated, McCain could not possibly have meant what you suggest he meant.
What McCain was actually referring to was what JFK and Goldwater were planning to do leading up to the '64 election, but which unfortunately did not happen because of JFK's death.
JFK defeated Nixon, not Goldwater.”
