“I tend to agree with you. I want to believe that he's brilliant. I want to believe he's merely strategizing for future action that will make a huge difference. I want to believe that he's really quite cunning and is mapping out our future with his own style of leading and changing the status quo and making big chances for all of us. I want to believe he's building a foundation of where he wants to take this country but with diplomacy, patience and grace.”

“Well, there was a mass movement by the people of the world directed to the Copenhagen summit. It was called 350.com. I know because I was involved with it. Anybody know what kind of impact that had? I don't.”

“I also think Dean's statements last night were horrific. What a great team player he is. I guess that term doesn't even exist these days. My take is the Republicans spew that Government wants everything BUT the Republicans want nothing but the status quo, meaning let the fraud and corruption for the well off continue to destroy our country. The middle class is already destroyed.”

Tom Payned replied on Dec 16, 2009 at 21:35:29

“Dean was absolutely correct last night, and way should he be a team player as you call him, which most of us thinking people would call a lemming, and march over the cliff into self destruction.

It's the team player mentality that gave us Bush & Iraq.

No thank you, give me someone who puts the interest of the masses over the interest of selfish politicians any day.

Dean should have been a cabinet member, and now why know why he isn't, he's got integrity.

He's also my 2012 primary candidate.”

“You know, it just doesn't matter anymore. Why spend another second on this "man". He can do or say anything he wants. He apparently is immune. There are no penalties or punishment for him whatsoever. There are no rules for him as well as for Limbaugh, Bachmann, Palin, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But the huge problem is, a decent and thriving society needs rules. Sorry.”

“nvr2late,

It is the REALITY SHOW mentality. Just like WH gate-crashers.

Snowbilly Grifter treats her silly book tour as a campaign for President; she thinks if you have a successful book and want it bad enough, you get elected.


Rather pathetic.


I am HAPPY as I can be that Beckanoia's movie is a failure -- Guess he found out that you look like you have a crowd when you pay $15/hour to TEABAGGERS and provide signs and transmportation and meals, they will show up.

NOW, if you ask them TO PAY BECKANOIA to see him, no one cares and will not waste their money.”

“It is still an opinion show. I used to watch it occasionally but I just don't think that anything of substance is added to the conversation. Every night it's just yeah I get it, republicans are stupid and fox news is biased. There's no investigation or relevant reporting, it's just a rehash of republican talking points with snide remarks and winks to the audience.

Bill Moyers is the best of the best and a national hero. Everyone on msnbc is just sloppy seconds.”

“In my life (and I stress my situation), I pay under $5.00 for a thyroid medicine, which I can afford. I would love to be able to buy some good quality vitimins or just some wonderful nutritional products for preventative healthcare. I can't because it's too expensive. So the way it is now we get to dump chemicals into our bodies in support of the pharmaceutical companies with no affordable alternative for wellness. I wish someone could come up with some brilliant idea where we do get some kind of financial assistance, or an alternative of some kind, to be able to purchase nutritional supplements. And I'm not talking One-A-Day vitamin stuff.”

“And I guess Murtha calling our troops murderers was just part of being a good patriot. The same would go for John Kerry and a number of other Members of the senate and congress. Their behavior was very treasonous and unsubstantiated. No apology from them after they were proven incorrect either.

There is freedom of speech and Obama has the freedom to be a racist as well, while that is not a good thing it is not illegal either.”

donnyquixote replied on Nov 10, 2009 at 10:15:48

“Read the Constitution, Article 3, Section 3, where treason is defined as "levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." You might take a look at the First Amendment while you're brushing up. Lastly, if you want an example of treason to which our Government turned a blind eye, take a look at the great Jane Fonda and her "work" with the NVA.”
