Obama Calls For $250 Payments To Seniors
Commented Oct 14, 2009 at 16:19:40 in Politics
“It would probably be about the size of an annual increase. The problem is again health ins cost. Medicare expense gets taken out of your Social Security check usually so seniors and disabled will have a net negative for 2010 due to insurance going up and no cost of living increase.”
Ensign Investigation Confirmed By Barbara Boxer
Commented Oct 04, 2009 at 15:09:42 in Politics
“Sad when you can't get someone as weak as Kyl to support you. Wonder if they force Ensign to resign if Gov will appoint leading GOP senate candidate to that safe seat leaving weaker one to challenge Reid. I think all C Streeters need to be out of Senate”

Do You Agree with President Carter's Comments?
Commented Sep 17, 2009 at 21:24:18 in Politics
“When you live in a place (California, NYC for two) where there are lots of residents who have moved from different regions you have less of this feeling of being threatened by a 'foreign' group as you have mostly been separated from your own tribe. When I was a young Irish Catholic, having a friend who wasn't Irish Catholic was odd. Marrying one was unacceptable. It's almost laughable today. Hope in future decades we will be able to laugh at a time when we wondered if someone was an American because he was black.”

“Without much effort ran across 2 threats to Obama (and other Dems in the govt) in a matter of about 1 hour. These people need to be reported. None of us is trained to know who is a serious threat.”

“Funny that the people who are so 'rabidly' opposed to today's govt had no problem with money for war or tax breaks for the rich. Their objection is when their money is redistributed to people who are less fortunate than they are. This is the definition of Christian Conservative: tax me for killing in other countries OK; tax me to help the hungry, homeless and sick: stop big govt. Jesus would not recognize these people as Christians in my opinion.”

CNN Under Fire For Erroneous Coast Guard Shots Report
Commented Sep 11, 2009 at 15:06:08 in Media
“CNN said Coast Guard didn't give them the info they needed so I guess it's their justification to broadcast unconfirmed rumors. Very irresponsible 'journalism.'”

Commented Sep 11, 2009 at 15:04:03 in Media
“IF it had been an emergency, Coast Guard would have gone silent and CNN wouldn't have picked it up on a scanner. One would think an 'expert' like Fran Townsend would have known that. Either she didn't which is hard to fathom or chose to make a political twist on this non story. She should not be on CNN as an 'expert.'”
One Of The Three GOP Senators Considering Bipartisan Health Bill Blasts Dem. Plan
Commented Aug 29, 2009 at 14:06:22 in Home
“What I hope Dems will learn from Teddy's passing: you can lead as a liberal and stand tall in your beliefs. People will hate you but they will also love and honor you. More people will fall into the latter category.”
One Of The Three GOP Senators Considering Bipartisan Health Bill Blasts Dem. Plan
Commented Aug 29, 2009 at 14:04:47 in Home
“I am with you. After forty years of loyal GOP votes I switched for my first Dem vote this past November. Don't see a Rep I would vote for. Too much fear, lies and hatred. Too little leadership and too few intelligent cogent ideas.”
formerroadie replied on Aug 29, 2009 at 14:13:08
“HEAR HEAR! I too was a former Republican until the 2006 election. I finally took the blue pill and woke up! Republicans now scare the hell out of me and so did my past political leanings. They have absolutely no interest in America. They are as anti-American as anyone ever has ever been in this country.”
Rep. Kirk Stocks Town Hall With Supporters, Claims Only 7 Million Uninsured Americans
Commented Aug 28, 2009 at 17:46:11 in Politics
“Time to connect the elevated GOP unemployment numbers to the uninsured. Fight back w/this argument. IF unemployment numbers are higher than WH reports, wouldn't the uninsured numbers be higher than the GOP claims? Are all the unemployed able to afford Cobra?”
MaryanneAZ replied on Aug 28, 2009 at 19:33:05
“The unemployed likely are in the 9 month subsidized period, which ends for most on December 1. They are now paying only 35% of their Cobra amount. First, their subsidy ends, and then their UE benefits end as well. THAT will be a real eye-opener for the Nation.”

Huckabee: Kennedy Would Have Been Urged To Die Earlier Under ObamaCare
Commented Aug 28, 2009 at 16:43:52 in Politics
“As usual Huckabee's comments are fact free. The truth is because Teddy made his wishes known, he got to decide to go home to die. He could have paid for more treatments himself but they weren't helping so he deciided how he would deal with his final days. These comments from a purported man of God? Huckabee, I believe in God and you are no disciple of the God I know.”

“Would our health care include this type of coverage?
Family physician Doug Farrago asks some pointed questions about the stellar care that the Senator receives, observing that “he travels around with a team of physicians,” and, “most patients in [Senator Kennedy's condition] usually are in hospice care.”
Senator Kennedy should be commended for his efforts to bring about health care reform. But is the care he is receiving, including instant opinions and access from revered institutions like Massachusetts General Hospital and Duke University Medical Center, representative of the kind of care he’s advocating for the American public?”

“Didn't LIeberman get lots of help from Teddy Kennedy when he was starting out in politics? If he ever had any integrity, one would hope he would try to find it now and vote w/the Dems on HCR”

The U.S. Postal Service: A Winning Model For Health Care?
Commented Aug 27, 2009 at 12:36:00 in Politics
“Critiques of USPS is lazy journalism. It is very affordable especially considering what they are required to do. No for profit service could survive is they had to pick up and deliver mail across America. Currently we are enjoying Netflix and wondering how it would be possible w/o the USPS.”

Lou Dobbs A "Publicity Nightmare" For CNN: AP
Commented Aug 02, 2009 at 18:21:17 in Media
“If Dobbs is serious, which I doubt, he would have Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-HI) on his show. Neil knew both of Obama's parents when they were all at Univ of Hawaii”
Joyana replied on Aug 02, 2009 at 18:39:55
“No, if Dobbs is serious, he'd drop the story. He's deliberately keeping it going for ratings. He doesn't want any credible info because it'd weaken his schtick.”
