The GOP manifesto sounds remarkedly like The Nazi Party Manifesto.
Who in their right mind would want an endorsement from Cheney or Palin???
As a Nixon crony, Alexander sure oughtta know. Dare I say its another case of the pot calling the kettle black?
Limbaugh wouldn't have passed the NFL's Drug Test.
It's the "CONTRACT ON AMERICA", not the "Contract With America."
Dad releases balloon himself after stashing kid in attic. Calls police and all news outlets, then waits for calls to roll in regarding a reality TV show about his family. The oldest 21st century trick in the book.
there will be few States that opt out of a public option because if they do they will face the wrath of their voters who will see the benefits of an option from the States that do have it. Of course, even a nitwit (GOP excluded) knows that co-ops and non-profits are worthless. One need go no further than look at Blue Cross to see how a so-called "non-profit" would run.
I wish he were my congressman. Where I live we are saddled with that loser Cao who like this congressman says, really doesn't care about the welfare of people after they are born.
What I love about Nostradamos is that his style is so BS that historians can only predict the past from his writings.
Yet another reason to support the fact that religion has no place in the Affairs of State.
It is amusing to see Joe Wilson talk about taking the high road, a road he has never traveled on before. Unfortunately for Joe, he has given us a paper and verbal trail of "off-color" comments throughout the years. They are not hard to find.
"I emplore you to find a quote from Joe Wilson where he mentions race. Please, show us." YOU MAKE IT EASY! JUST DO A GOOGLE OF "JOE WILSON STROM THURMOND" AND SEE WHAT COMES UP.
If the country didn't know Wilson was an asshole last week, they do this week.
Did anyone NOT see this coming? I really do not know what Universe Baucus comes from but it's not the one the United States is in.
So is he going to run on the NAZI ticket?
Wow! A Republican with common sense?! Amazing!
I think the GOP calls this the Sore/Loserman Syndrome. It's funny that Kayne West and Joe Wilson have so much in common.
Sanford is the white Ray Nagin.
Unfortunately for Wilson, this is not his first "emotional" outburst. About 6 years ago he came down hard on the daughter of the 16 year-old African American girl that Strom Thurmond raped and impregnated. The story is floating around on the Web.
Aw, what a kind, sensitive asshole Sttele is...I never knew...
The biggest contributer to Joe Wilson's campaign of lies is the American Hospital Association. At least we know now who he really represents. It's hard to imagine the AHA would want to have anything to do with him.
Rob Miller's website is
www.robmillerforcongress.com
It is currently down- whether that is from donation overload or sabotage I don't know. But a good way to show your displeasure with Joe Wilson would be to donate to Rob Miller.
Man, does that fool look uncomfortable. I guess it's because the only lie from last night came out of his mouth. It is amazing how people speak and don't even know what they are speaking about. Maybe his outburst was to cover for the Louisiana GOP politition/surgeon who gave what was supposed to be a rebuttal. It is clear from both of these "men" that the GOP has no plan whatsoever regarding healthcare other than to keep things the way they are.
As a Louisianan, I can say that Boustany is just another Louisiana hack who is an embarrassment to the State- a state which has a lot to be ebarrassed about in their politicos- from Ray Nagin to lil Bobby Brady Jindal. I do wish the GOP would find a spokesmodel from another state though- sort of spread the humiliation around.
...I was just talking to God, and God said he should go to hell.
The heckler is some prick from South Carolina- what as asshole!
Schmidt also thinks the earth is flat.
It is amusing that the GOP would pick a dude who made a fortune on other people's bad health and has manipulated the healthcare system to his maximum benefit.How out of touch are they???
- New Orleans
Gawd! I hope it's Jindal! I love when our impotent gov tries to give a speech- not to mention that Louisiana is at the top og least healthiest places in America. If not Jindal, then Michelle Bachman or a similar GOP falling star.
I guess he was for it before he was against it.
This is all so pathetic. Another attempt to marginalize Obama and no one in the Demo party speaks up for him.
It must be apparent to even the weakest, most spineless of our Democratic congresspeople by now that the GOP's plan all along is to marginalize Obama to the point where they claim, as Newt Gingrich said of Clinton, that he is "irrevelant." I sincerely hope these congresspeople learned from the 1990s experience. They need to get off of their collective asses and speak up NOW.
Unfortunately, this plan won't do much to help Americans. Here is what will happen:
The insurance industry will continue to operate as it does today, ignoring "warnings" from the Feds. They will hope to hold out until an anti-American givernment, such as the GOP, can take control again.
It's a good thing that guy has medicare! Can you imagine what he would have to pay out of pocket, and the paperwork he would have to fill out if he didn't?
Wait till they vet him! LOL
Is Robertson's "university" even accredited??? Attending that school alone should disqualify one from any kind of public office.
