“Ridiculous. The state had the DNA and never tested it for 35 years. I'd be a 'Little' bitter about it when I got out. The prosecutors and judges who rejected the DNA tests should go to jail.”

roald replied on Dec 18, 2009 at 09:43:44

“"Neither did the sophisticated DNA testing that officials more recently used to determine he could not have been the rapist."

Why would the state test the DNA years after he was convicted, especially when they cannot afford to test current evidence where no one has even been charged.

On the other hand, I would be more than a bit bitter of the other, now obviously bogus evidence, used in the trial.”

“I watched MSNBC yesterday and it was frustrating to see the Obama Admin bashing people like Howard Dean while ignoring folks like Lieberman and Nelson. Matter of fact this is probably the first time this year I've seen them say anything to Nelson.”

“Howard Dean is a hero and ought run again for President. This time he will win the support of all progressives of the left, right and center. He is a man of true values and courage. Run Howard Run.”

“I can't wait until 2010 because although I'm poor and barely getting by I'm using every dime I have and volunteer time to get some of these arseholes out of office. I particularly can't wait until 2012 because if Obama thinks he's getting a second term he's WRONG. Obama lied, Lieberman lied, they all lied. They wanted 60, we gave it to them. Now they want to use every excuse in the book to prevent a public option. Well they can try and get me to buy into this insurance game or fine me. I'm not paying. Take me to jaail. Lock me up. I'm not paying it. And Obama sitting up there in the White House meeting with everyone except his base. Making deals with big pharma, bank and insurance execs and lying to the public that he's not making backroom deals. He's a snaake not to be trusted. I hope Dean decides to run again because he has my 100% support!”

GardenerNorCal replied on Dec 17, 2009 at 09:05:17

“I am not paying either. Not that I can afford to, but neither am I signing up for the subsidy so my government can funnel money to private for profit insurance companies. I wouldn't mind paying payroll taxes to support a national plan, but I will not add to the coffers of the top !% just to boost the phoney economic model.”

“Yes, QT is above making endless sequels, he instead, prefers to rehash his same old dog and pony show while referring to the endless bits stolen from obscure or foreign films as his “homage”. Inglourious Bastard’s has the same merit and relevancy as Hogan’s Heroes when comes to commenting upon war or World War II.”

“You don't have to but if they were smart, they'd come to the table with a REAL public option plan next year and beat it down the Democrats throat until 2012. If they did that, damm right I'd vote for them because when they say they're going to do something they do it!!! None of that "We need bipartisan support" or "We need a 60 vote majority rule" or some other bee sss. I need someone with bawls running my party. And the Republicans has bawls. And YES I AM a lifelong Democrat and YES I am willing to give over power back to the Republicans. I have been giving money and time and votes since President Carter and every Dem president they have sent has been more conservative than Republicans. And no, Bill Clinton wasn't a true Democrat. Why am I voting Democrat when all I get is Conservative policies wrapped in a Dem's body.”

“If this bill doesn't include a Public Option, President Obama will be a one term president and the Democrats will loose Congress and the Presidency in 2012. How do I know this? Being a lifelong Democrat I will work my hardest against them, even donating and voting republican. This 1st year of Democratic control in office showed me one thing. They asked and got a 60 majority rule because they needed that to push their policy through. But they have shown that even with this they won't stand and fight for anything. So if the Public Option fails, I'm switching parties. Adios beeytches. At least with Republicans they get things done. Even without majority rule.”

jadeba replied on Dec 09, 2009 at 23:21:43

“What you seem to forget is that the public option you hold so dear was lost largely because of gop opposition. If you really want the public option or any form of health care reform, I'd not hang my hat on the people who denied you the possibility of ever having it. I understand being frustrated and even angry but your retribution against dems by going to repubs makes absolutely not sense. Vote green party, vote Nader, whatever, but the repubs?”

“You would vote republican? You're not much of a dem then anyway. If what ends up being better than the watered down public option that has been dangling by a thread, then it is semantics you are cursing.”

“"They asked and got a 60 majority rule because they needed that to push their policy through."
-----

60 votes for cloture is not a new rule that the Democrats asked for.

Has been part of the rules of the Senate for over 100 years.

Before that, the requirement was for a 2/3 vote to invoke cloture”

“"His critics -- including the government of the United States -- have portrayed him as a huckster who gets millions of people to pay for worthless advice based on impossible claims."

You mean the same government that allows fast food restaurants to sell cancer causing grilled chickens. Or the same government that lied its way into Iraq. Or the same government that stole $700b of taxpayers money to fund CEO bonuses. Or the same government that allows monopolies to form even though we know the consequences of monopolies. I wonder who the huckster is.”

Well the only good thing that's come from this is we see who's really on the side of everyday people. Next cycle we can focus on getting Joe Lieberman, Evan Byah and all those other obstructionists out of our party.”
