  • Bush and Cheney walk, too

    Bush commuted his sentence and did not pardon so Libby can plead the 5th if he is called in. So he has it both ways he's protected Libby and himself (and Cheney). Just goes to show that republicans are just corrupt like the rest of them (including some of the Democrats and others) and it is time for republicans to stop acting as if they have the moral high ground because they do not. All men are corrupt perhaps but the Left has a lot more compassion, that's more than can be said of the right wingers.

    I do not care what party you are from, if you are a liar you should be punished. Funny thing when my 14 year old walked up to me and said why the hell are you so strict about lying when it obviously pays off to be loyal? Can any member of the GOP answer me? Bennett? Where are you?

  • Pundit trials

    I found the pundits at the last debates on ABC outrageous. The “debates” should be renamed "Pundit Trials." The fact is that these overpaid pundits, who are part of the intelligentsia, do not have the same concerns that regular citizens have. It’s simply impossible due to the fact that they do not live among the citizenry but live and are part of the elite. Do you think that with their fat salaries they are really affected by the rise of oil prices? Do you really think they are concerned with the state of public schools when their kids are mixing with the elite in the safety of private schools? I was so offended by the fact that I had to watch over half the show before they finally dealt with the issues that concerns most people. This is the only way we can get a real idea of where the candidates stand. I mean, who cares about the pins. The pundits certainly were not wearing them. Does that make them less patriotic? Meanwhile, the Media is having a love fest with McCain and his life story and forgetting once again to deal with the issues. If they did, it would be clear that McCain’s policies are the continuation of the Bush and Neo-cons agenda. Last time I heard the citizenry rejected this agenda – clearly the Media has not. It is time for us to get our house in order - it is not ok to go to war and not pay for it. It is not ok to go to war and lie about it. It is not ok to talk family values and not support health care and job security. It is time to change the status quo! Shame on these pundits and their cohorts. Be aware that the masses will rise and be heard whether through the ballot box or their pocket books, but rise they will. It is only a matter of time. Meanwhile, I am shutting off my TV for good. I just cancelled my cable. I cannot take this propaganda trash any longer.

  • Obama's anti smear site

    No matter what democrats do, whether they defend themselves or let themselves be taken to the cleaners by the right wing smear machine, someone in the Media will ALWAYS find a way to spin it negatively for the democrats. Don't LISTEN to them. Just keep the anti smear sites, emails, and comments going. FIGHT BACK! DESTROY the mean spirited, incompetent, right wing conspiracy NOW!!!!
