A Personal Fight for Health Care Reform
Commented Nov 06, 2009 at 18:24:43 in Politics
“What does it mean anyway to have "certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness?" Your brother, Veronica, was supposed to have those rights in this country. LIFE, for God's sake! It is a fundamental human right.
Congress cannot leave the American people at the mercy of the same insurance companies that deny care and claims now. I hope people are moved to call--especially to demand a public option that prohibits discrimination based on preexisting conditions.”

“The Government did not take his life. He took his life. It was either his genetics, how he lived, or what he ate that most likely caused this to occur.
I hope people call and demand freedom FROM the Government. You want to sell your freedom for some perception of getting better health care. This is complete folly.
I fought for this country for freedom, and I detest your wanting to give it away for such a small gesture. You should ask the forgiveness of all the men and women who have fought and died for this country to give you your freedom.”

Journalist's Contempt Charge Unsettles Fellow Reporters
Commented Mar 10, 2008 at 06:41:06 in Media
“Exactly. I mean is this another case of the Government spoon-feeding a Judith Miller to forward a dirty political agenda? Hatfill was to anthrax what Iraq was to 911. I don't feel particularly compelled to have the press protected if it's serving as a propaganda arm for the governments lies. This ain't deep throat.”

Karl Rove: Don't "Hussein" Obama
Commented Mar 03, 2008 at 18:46:02 in Politics
“So, Karl Rove is posturing as if one can sink too low? This from the man who invented John McCain's illegitimate black baby with a prostitute, no less, Ann Richards' and Hillary Clinton lesbian rumor, and wanting to take naked gay pictures of Alabama's Democratic governor.

Mukasey Refuses Probe of Bush Aides
Commented Feb 29, 2008 at 20:00:53 in Politics
“Better yet...Inherent Contempt.
Under the inherent contempt power, the individual is brought before the House or Senate by the Sergeant-at-Arms, tried at the bar of the body, and can be imprisoned. The purpose of the imprisonment or other sanction may be either punitive or coercive. Thus, the witness can be imprisoned for a specified period of time as punishment, or for an indefinite period (but not, at least in the case of the House, beyond the adjournment of a session of the Congress) until he agrees to comply. The inherent contempt power has been recognized by the Supreme Court as inextricably related to Congress’s constitutionally-based power to investigate.

“Her name was on the ballot, she did not campaign there.
They're not allowed to campaign there and Obama spun her staying on the ballot as a slap in the face the DNC, but yet he's doing the same thing.
Politics as usual coming from the person who renounces it.”
