Hey SanChonino....for once I agree with you 100'%! Throw da bums out!

It's time we tell klink....."Hell NO"!
Once again, President Bush has vetoed a bill regarding funding for stem cell research, calling the research "unethical". I've gotten into this before on this site, and I still don't understand President Bush's position. These stem cells are going to be flushed down the toilet. Put them to good use. I already know the reaction I'm going to get from the majority of the people on this site - "why should federal funding go to any research, regardless
Taking away their ability to respond to a terrorist threat seems somewhat counter-productive to me. That's the whole point. They're NOT responding to a terroristic threat. They "are" saying we don't care if you're here illegally or a criminal, it's okay to stay in our city.
I also pick D.
While I don't agree with the notion of 'sanctuary cities' I'm not sure this is the way to deal with them because it interferes with State's Rights. A similar situation would be the witholding of highway funds to those States who did not vigorously enforce the 55MPH speed limit, or more recently, California's attempt to legalize medicinal marijuana being squashed by Federal enforcement. Sorry LW but I don't see it that way. I don't agree with "sactuary ci
In a way the GOP does control congress, as long as they tacitly endorse Bush by ensuring that legislation cannot get past the veto margin of 60%, they control the fate of Congress. Republicans have a vetted interest in protecting Bush, even if it means we continue on the same destructive policies. Sorry but that dog won't hunt. By your standards, the democrats have controlled congress all the time it was being led by the GOP.
AAADD- KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ! Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder. Somehow I feel better, even though I have it!! Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This is how it manifests: I decide to water my garden. As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide it needs washing. As I start toward the garage, I notice mail on the porch table that <br
SC, I apologize. It would seem that what I was taught in school is now considered incorrect. From Wikipedia: Liberal Democracy Liberal democracy is a representative democracy along with the protection of minorities, the rule of law, a separation of powers, and protection of liberties (thus the name liberal) of speech, assembly, religion, and property. Conversely, an illiberal democracy is one where the protections that form a liberal democ
our democracy is NOT all about voting. Hey SC...if you're going to talk about America, do it right. America is a representative republic not a democracy.
All of what GWB has done is with the support of the GOP in Congress. shut up MORON!!!
I didn't say you couldn't call yourself that, I simply said that you really didn't do anything to earn the title . Some people seem to think it is some label of quality or idealism that we can't allow to be watered down. In reality, prisons are full of "Americans", and someone who has worked here for ten years and contributed to their community is deemed unworthy of the title. If I had to choose between the illegal working 12 hour days nailing shi
At least Col Gene has the goddamned decency to confine this crap to his own blog, and doesn't wander around trolling for opposition yes,,,you might learn from that. So might you.
Nope, they aren't. They're still Muslims, though. Kind of defeats your point, huh? Obviously, if Islam was the problem, the indoctrination would be anywhere the religion was found. Instead, you only find it in places where the people are politically and economically oppressed, and radical Islam is a tool that is used. Again like he said...NOT ALL MUSLIMS, just the radicals and fundamentalists. And he's right you do seem to keep missing that.
Boy skyjack, you are a major asshole. and for the record, jet fuel has to have a certain mix of air with it in the pipes to ignite, no air in the pipes, so no explosion. the same reason why oil well fires don't blowup all the way down the pipe. they only burn when the air-oil ratio is correct. Hey "jerk-off" When you blow the pipes guess what happens? You expose AIR AND JET FUEL to a humungous FIREBALL! Which means what to your little brain? <d
Problem is what I posted is not one-sided but the truth. If you are saying that Maliki is an effective leader and the Iraqi Government is coming together, you are living on a different planet then this one. You just have no response because what I have stated is true. The points made by Ned Parker accurately describe what is going on in Iraq and is the reason the Bush policy is not working. "If" this was the "absolute" truth like you claim, then "why" ha
OK, danielost. I issued this challenge on another topic on another thread. Go back and find one post where I agreed with Col. Gene. If you look at posts where he and I share space, you'll see that we are CONSTANTLY at odds. Yet you chose to lump me with him. Why? why should i waste my time when i never said you agreed with dictator col gene just becouse your both liberals doesn't mean you have to agree with each other so if m
Where's drmiler's quote? I personally think Baker's gone off the deep end, in some respect. He and I used to get on pretty well, overall; I even got an insightful from him once about an article I wrote about my views on modern psychology. Then we later got into a discussion about immigration, and it was all downhill from there. We got into it about Islam and the war, and it was "Katy, bar the door". That was it. The comment that earned me the most caustic
Except for the part where you and Guy only "holler" about the one side, leaving the other side in beautiful effigy, without apparent blemish. Pot, meet the kettle. Then you really don't pay attention to what I do write. Because I have slammed the republicans too. "Especially" over the dumb-assed immigration bill. And yes that includes Bush with the rest of the dumb-asses.
now tell me how many people (party not necessary) were accused, indicted, or convicted of crimes against minors in the time it took you to write that non-story? 1st, you call it a non story. that doesn't make it so. to me, sex with 8 and 10 year old girls by someone who was a rising star in the GOP is a story.
What Bush wants is to reward people who have broken our laws and the cost of his comprehensive immigration bill to Social Security and Medicare has been estimated by the Heritage Foundation at over $2.5 Trillion dollars. Bush runs around telling us that Social Security is in trouble and then proposes adding yet another oblig
anybody scared yet? If you want to be scared, go check out rightwingers latest propoganda offering. It's "not" a propoganda offering. It "could" be a very real possibility. Just because you don't believe it, does not make it any less possible. I also take note that you can't/haven/t made
My point: Next time you feel like insulting a group of people (like liberals) or bashing approximately 1.3 billion people (Muslims), do a little research ( it will keep you from looking like a 12 year old kid ) or keep you mouth shut. "Now" who's the 12 year old?
