We dont need to change our President. We need to change the morons in Congress and the Senate. We need the Republicans who hate the People of this country and want to keep the 99% down. That is who we need to get rid of. The President would be just fine if we had more Dems in charge... We at the very least got things Done... The Bullies need to go back to their Farms and play with their Cattle and leave the Thinking to the people who understand just how that is Really done.. Because I for one have had Enough of them... To last the rest of my life.. Thank YOU..
Indeed! Bravo! Encore!
The sad thing is many on this site really do think the GOP has a "war on women!" Think about it! Do you really believe it, or is this just a ploy to have a little fun bashing the GOP? What are they doing? Really?
Most conservatives are against public funding of contraception services. I disagree with the mandated tests and procedures to have an abortion. Is that your "war on women?" That is because they are against abortion, not women! Just trying to clear that up. Are you understandin'?
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZipper. Employ it. Your's is a no sale, and no one listens to you. Are you understanding? have a nice day.
Now you know that's not true Easy. There are a lot of people that don't even post on this site that read the comments.

Add these up one by one and you get a phenomenal score that points to the fact that Barrack Hussein Obama is determined to turn
America into a Marxist-Socialist society.
All of the items in the preceding paragraphs have been put into place. All can be documented very easily. Before you disavow this, do an internet search. The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph. Will it read as above or will it be a happier ending for most of America?
If you are an Obama Supporter don't be angry with me because I think Barrack Hussein Obama is a socialist. Far
too many facts support he is indeed a Socialist.
If you seek the truth you will be richer for it.
Don't just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth.
Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Constitutionalists, and Libertarians all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society.
Pray for Americans to seek the truth and take action for it will
keep us FREE. Our biggest enemy is not China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran; our biggest enemy is a contingent of politicians in Washington, DC. The government will not help, so we need to do it ourselves.
Still looking for attention, six? Just askin'.
Seem to be getting more paranoid by the day. Just sayin'.
They might love this post over at a Faux blog. Probably, not FreeRepublic or RedState....they don't like spam. Are you understandin'?
"Stuff" like this would be better as an article on your column.....you wrote it yourself? If not, maybe seed it to your column and then seed that to the blog. Think about it.
you misspelled ALEC... I know it was just an oversight... so don't think I am being critical. you spelled it A-c-o-r-n....it is spelled like this A-L-E-C
Kathe....
None so blind as those that refuse to see. just sayin'
Six said....If you are an Obama Supporter don't be angry with me because I think Barrack Hussein Obama is a socialist. Far

I think Barack Hussein Obama is in very good company.... Jesus Christ our Savior.. was also a Socialist.. far too many facts support that.... just sayin
That also applies to you Six. Open your mind and your eyes. Mine have been open for a long, long time and I've seen much more than you. I support Jesus and Obama, Tom. Only Obama is running in 2012 and Jesus has already served his term. He was assinated by the Romans, yet he is still powerful. Just saying!
Capt; HELL NO! Abortion is Legal in this Country. Birth control is part of Women Health Care, preventative care, just like for men, preventative care for prostate cancer, viagra for sex, Men need sex and want it free, Health care should be free to all americans in this country, this is our right as a americans. No republican have the right to deny any one health care in this country. Republicans war on women Health care in this country. Remember 50% of voters in this country are WOMEN. Republicans are going to lose this one!!!
Kathe.... Typed it out in my word processing program but couldn't get it to paste like I typed it. It's not hard to know these facts.
Obama's secret agenda exposed by WND Joseph Farah - Tea Party Conv, Nashville 2-05-10

If these things weren't already coming to pass, then I would say he doesn't have it right, but after 3 years under Obama, I see these things coming to pass. Then I would have to say based on this history, he's on to something.

That's why they continue to change the institute, people or persons regularly.
Steve..... For most of us or at least I've found it the case for me, nothing is free. Someone is paying for your free benefits whatever they are if you aren't.
Tea party agenda? That is what they would want everyone to believe and I see you swallowed it hook, line, and sinker. You know there are lies to be had and they can make them up and pass them along with no regrets to their outcome as long as it suits their plan for your bleak future.
You love to accuse Obama as being a socialist. yet you fail to connect a name to the corrupted right, who are only interested in themselves and not the people of this country. They wish to own it all and turn it into a dictatorship with laws like stand your ground and no real law and order.
Bend over and get your mandated exam. How would you like that bag of marbles. That's not war on women? And now Walker repeals the equal pay act? He's an idiot repub/tparty. And it appears anyone voting for a repub/tparty is more into fairy tales than real life. The ciminal regime of bush/cheney was just a beginning. If the repub/tparty gets into the WHouse, we will have war with Iran, Palestinians will be at the obscene mercy of the Zionists, the internet will be policed heavily and anyone not agreeing with the head honchos will sit in jail. Wait and see, IF they should get in the WHouse through trickery, as bush/cheney did, and not because Americans voted for them.
re:94.2
Sixpick, I gotta say I stood up and applauded your post. Every sentence was spot on. Thanks for taking the time to write it and post it.
Kai.... You're comment will be the only compliment I receive, promise. Thanks. I don't mean to be sarcastic to anyone here. How can we deny the facts and I believe I have stated them above.
Tom..... I would love for you to show me in the Bible where it says anywhere Jesus was a Socialist. I'll check back tomorrow. Thanks in advance.
Jesus did not check your ID or your bank account before He died on the cross. ALL can be saved, the poor, the widow, children, parents, unemployed, business owners, kings, pawns and even the 1%, if you are more like Buffett. He went through towns and healed all, NOT just the insured. He broke bread and fish and shared with the multitude, NOT just the elite. He instructed his disciples to give your extra clothing to the ones in need.. to share your food and your home with the homeless.
But He did give warnings to the owners and to the 1%, he said it was as hard for them to get to heaven as it was for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. And James 5 I think has much to say about people who hire workers and do not pay them a days wage.
You judge Obama by his deeds and call him a socialist.... let's judge Jesus also by his deeds
It's funny that socialist wasn't even in the human vocabulary back then so people can deny all they want. Gee, if a person wants to be so literal....Jesus was a Jew....not a Christian. What does that prove? Nothing.
But, how do they justify their behaviors to the words written? Does it compare favorably?
I wonder what the Bible would look like if it was revised in political terms. LOL

Facts and your belief are at opposite ends of the truth. You KNOW that some of your "facts" have been discussed and found to be fraudulent as in the case with Acorn. Some are a stretch, others twisted, out of context and spun around and of course lied about. so why do you believe that stuff?
Tom: See #94.5. <s>
Its a United Front Occurrence! Six & Capt. UFO get back on board and go back to where ever you came from!
Kathe,
Isn't that funny? Condemned by his own words.. hahaha

#94.10 - Tue Apr 10, 2012 1:44 PM HKT
Your thought to Steve was nothing is free and I wanted to further point out that Jesus was a true Socialist.... He took from the boy fish and loaves of bread and He gave it to the multitude
SIX: Nice story, What's it called Whent's Upon a time!
Jesus advocated and modeled giving to the poor, Tom. He was apolitical, he never advocated taking from some to give to others! Let's be careful not to twist scripture to fit our particular political mindset. Jesus advocated personal actions, never encouraged his followers to work through government!
Six, thanks for the great post(.2) and link(.9). We know there are many misguided believers that will question someone's faith based on a political belief. I get it all the time, "how can you be a Christian and want to kill babies?" It shows we interpret everything as intelligent individuals, are ya understanding'?
Cappy:There are two things that make no sense at all You and SIX!
Thanks xxxooo! It's pretty easy for me to understand you, typical liberal spin-master! I disagree with almost everything you spout, but will defend your right to say it! Guess I will just have to remain an enigma!
Six...
I have tolerated your political viewpoint, because otherwise, you had shown yourself to be a relatively decent fellow, semi-tolerant and willing to listen, with a pretty good taste in music...
But, when you spew so many lies, so many half-truths, such unmitigated, unsubstantiated, disproven GARBAGE while claiming anything we say in rebuttal is democratic PROPAGANDA... You just showed me your true colours, and they are UGLY...
'IGNORE'... Buh-bye...
How self-absorbed do you have to be to announce you're ignoring someone every time you do it?
Nobody on your ignore list is losing any sleep over it.
Buh-bye

How about the war on UNBORN women that the DEMS started in 1973. Yes the Dems have favored the slaughter of MILLIONS of unborn Women by abortion Not only that but they refuse to let their mothers know of the harm that abortion is doing to their lives to both physically and emotionally. That is THE REAL WAR ON WOMEN
About the war on babies... that you force into this world that need hospital care and you say no, because of no insurance.. they need food and you say no more food stamps... they need shelter and you say no more free housing.... instead you shout out to LET THEM DIE! But you saved an unborn child.. God bless you.
Carl: Fiction. Fox report. Abortion is not murder. Read science fact not fiction. You have been brainwashed with manipulated rhetoric. At issue is PRO-CHOICE. Get it. And from now on, you are to buy only blue cars to match the sky - no choice for you, Carl.
More Unemployed Have Stopped Looking Than Are Finding Work
http://www.upjohn.org/node/725
I know the March had an increase of jobs but there were more people that stopped looking for work than were added. That is a pretty dismal thing to overlook and brag about how many jobs were added. I'm not retired and am out there with the people every day, don't have time to sit around and make a lot of comments, but things are not getting better under Obama. I know it may seem good to people that are getting monthly checks and have plenty of time to cheer their leader on, but his policies are killing this country. By the way, I don't watch Fox but every once in a while, so you'll have to inform me of what they're saying, since it appears people on this vine watch Fox a whole lot more than I do. I have plenty of facts I could put on here, but I just don't have the time and no one wants to here it anyway. Facts are no apart of the agenda, I guess.
six
what is funny is we are always being accused of watching fox but the accusers always know what is on and being talked about. I don't watch fox for political stuff i watch C-SPAn it is on in the background all the time. Our accusers are why fox beats MSNBC . if they would actually WATCH ED like we do instead of Hannity his ratings would go up.
Yup...you got something there, TC. LOL!
High gas prices are killing the economy and the GOP is obstruction of everything that could be done to help, meanwhile the deficit and debt grows at a faster pace! Thanks GOP Kochsuckers!
Have a great day tomorrow. This should give you something to nibble on until next time.
Hi Tom!
So nice to see you so early. Doing a great job I might say since it looks like MD and xxx took the night off. LOL
Hi Easy!
Haven't seen you much. I hope all is well with you. <s>
We got us a grumpy little one tonight....eh?
Hi earthgirl!
Long time no see. I see you've rolled up your sleeves. Good girl. <s>
Good to see you Kathe and you're holding your own..
Is there something on this page that doesn't have to do with the usual attacks on Obama and Progressives? Sheeeeeesh.
I refuse to engage with incoherant ramblings. I think I made my terms of engagement clear and reasonable and all I get is called elitist. Can't win 'em all. <sarc>
I think they come here at just feeding time... they thrive on muddy water...
Are you part catfish? I know a Tomcatfish! Hee Hee Hee!
I've missed reading your comments, David's poems, and etc. There are so many putting in such great posts. You all do a great job - presson.
The more the GOP pretends that there is no War on Women, the more moderate Republican (an endangered and dying species, given that the GOP has been invaded/infected by the Nut-Wing Fringe - aka TEA Partyers) women such as Sens. Snowe & Murkowski feel obligated to set McConnell, et al., straight, to no avail.
Then there are those members of the GOP who are doubly deluded, for rejecting the idea that there is a War on Women, while asserting that Obama is engaged in a
War against Religion. Given that Hospitals & Schools operated by organizations such as the Catholic Church or the Jesuits, for example, were relieved of the obligation to pay for practices against their principles and that the Insurance Companies will pay for contraceptive pills, etc., directly, the idea of a war against religion is reduced to a red herring. Even so, there is an overriding obligation dictated by Federal Labor Law where Healthcare Insurance is predominantly Employer-based, such that the legal obligations as Employer supersede moral principles as a Religion.In any case, there is a simple solution, albeit difficult to put in place, that would relieve the employer of all obligations to provide healthcare insurance. Expanding Medicare from a retirement-like program to Medicare for All, would be good for numerous reasons. One of the most important reasons to transition to something analogous to Medicare for All is that it would remove the Economic burden from all employers, thereby making American Companies with American Labor more cost-competitive. That change would also improve the healthcare insurance dilemmas that often arise for people (and families, id applicable) - no loss of insurance or change of insurance due to changes in employment status or employers. A single-payer system and bulk-volume discounts on pharmaceuticals would be other benefits. That would also go a long way towards driving down the cost of healthcare, as the healthcare industry would no longer be able to get away with obscenely large profit margins.
But, we all know that the GOP - and far too many Democrats as well - are legally bribed by healthcare corporations to represent their interests rather than the interests of their constituents. So that's yet one more policy that won't change until money is removed from the political processes associated with election campaigns.
CC: Got that right! We must get rid of the spitting cobra first who blinds the people than we must throw out the rabid monkeys and the old rouge elephants!
SIX: One would think you got a bug up your ass?
Maybe a whole hornet's nest?
What would fix six....BeeBop or Preparation-H?
Better bee the music he would look funny with a shrunken head!
After reading the "list" I can only come to one conclusion Obama has identified the GOPs weakness and has exploited it! There weakness is his strength! I know as well as you do what that weakness is!?!?NO HEART in there chest& NO BRAINS in there HEADS! GOP take a guess WHO IS PULLING YOUR STRINGS? Only one thing I can say! I DO BELIEVE IN SPOOKS I DO I DO I DO BELIEVE IN SPOOKS! WHO IS PULLING MY TAIL? And there is no snow in the forecast!
You got to love the one that said Obama "refused to produce a birth certificate". He produced two birth certificates.....the State issued one when he filed to run for President *and* the original filed in the vault. Two birth certificates....do you suppose that's a first?
Besides Obama, they've called the Governor of Hawaii a liar. He's *too* old to remember such an event happening to friends. Probably can't even remember if he has grandchildren....if you ask an r/tp. They are the *only* ones that can judge what's true or false. And, with two birth certificates, many r/tp's still deem Obama's US Citizenship to be......false!!
Have the GOP "candidates" produced two birth certificates? Will they ever be asked?
I had no idea six was a birther *and* a tail puller. Have *Courage*, my friend!!
Its hard to tell what's going on around one, when their heads up their ass.
Its about time for MD to take over the next shift I hate working the midnight shift!\
On November 7th the cock will crow three times for the GOP.
James Cameron is just waiting to explore his next sunken ship in November! The SS Teatanic!
Is that what you guys do now?
I felt bad for Tom. He shows up early and he's got festering wart's nephew going all nuts on him. My hero.
Easy was hard hitting.
I think I'll play with the puppies. How's kitty? I keep meaning to tell India that I've had 4 cats in my life. No.'s 1, 3 and 4 were Manx.
Actually the president isn't throwing the heavy weight punchs against the GOP, it would seem that the obama team is not using all their legitimate lines of attack
they need to not be reactionary toward the GOP we must talk about this
destroying the effeciant postal service
challenging equal pay for women by making it harder for them to file investigations or complaints
the fictional appeasement of dictators. GW took Libya off the states of terror list because Qaddafi said he didn't want nuclear weapons. The colonel contained to sponsor terror, that is appeasement. The GOP have denounced the arab spring where populist factions have overthrown the illegitimate royals and clerics. The GOP under Bush allowed Iran's nuclear program to progress to its current form. They did nothing to stop them, they were too busy weakening our millitary and getting our people killed for Iraq and Afghanistan's problem
Folks like Romney should be called out by the team for claiming obama will raise our taxes when it is his tax plan that increases taxes on the middle class and allows more crony loopholes and lowers the already historically low tax rate on the top 1%. You can make up whatever "the rich pay most taxes" bs. 1% of the population contributes 40% of the wealth.........now this sounds soooo unfair(sad face) until you factor in the that top 2% have 40% of all the nation's wealth
the obama camp can also reveal the roots of the conspiracy faction and birther blowhards of the republicans which are rooted in subversion theology
the gop uses the constitution as a prop....I'm sorry a "guide"..........and then celebrates the patriot act
the repubs lie about oil production
the right has declared muslims unamerican.....which of course some hair brained person would try to deflect with the "is islam capable of existenting in our society" crap as if the answer isn't self evident
the GOP wants to send more soldiers to Iraq and Afghanistan. Afghanistan the country having a civil war that the GOP has gotten us into with no plan. the republicans got us in bed with leaders like mubarak, mushareff, karzai, the Al Saud's
Wouldn't it be cool if the whole crew got ship wrecked in November?
All they've shown is that they intend to throw People's Rights overboard. Hand over the other 7% of the money to the ones that only have 93%. There's nobility....Scrooge style.
MD is erratic about the times he shows up me I will get some shut eye, Fell asleep earlier....Cat out cat in Fester is okay. What no tail to tell about #2? Why did you cut #2 off!
Hi Cynical!
So agree! I think these will come up over and over again in the Fall during debates (the best) and advertising which I don't think as negative when it's truthful and on the issues....not deflecting from what matters to the Country's well-being. It's hard for me to wait. I'm tired of the clown show and lying.
How come why? MD used to be Old Faithful. Not going to spout so much?
LOL! No. 2 was "normal". I named her Lobby because she was found by my step-dad in the Federal Building lobby when she was a little kitten.
There is a War on Women and neither Romney, nor the Republicans will make it go away by claiming it doesn't exist. Romney and his wife says women are concern about the economy. Guess what, women can be concern about more than one thing, and seeing their personal rights being attack and taken away concerns them too. Look at the bills Gov. Walker of Wisconsin just sign into law the other day. Look at the bill Gov. McDonald and other Republicans Governors sign into law concerning women right to abortions. Look at their attack on Parent Plannedhood, where alot of women depends on for their healthcare. Mitt Romney supported the Blunt Amendment, he supports Paul Ryan's budget, which would destroy Medicare, Medicaid. Women are not stupid. And these Republicans are really saying that they are. They are saying women don't have sense enough to know when their rights are under attack. They are just imaging it. Well we will see who is imaging things November 6th.
LOGOUT: Here today gone tomorrow & tomorrow never comes...So much like the GOP.
Romney and the Republicans like saying women care about the economy more. If that's the case then why haven't Boehner, Canter, McConnell and the Republicans been helping President Obama try to fix that economy. Instead of obstructing, filibustering, out and out sabotaging the economy in hopes of winning in November.
The war on women was trumped up by the liberal media to divide this country by gender,class and race.To distract from real issues because our Pres can't run on his own merit.
No offense, takers, but there is no war on woman. This is a complete fabrication, a lie ! Isn't it ironic that you takers idolize men who molest woman, like Kennedy, and Clinton, then you mak things up about the Republicans.
Do something, learn how to take care of yourselves. Stop looking for the government to take care of you!
reagon,
we all know about the history of our political democrats, and other democrats, but there is no shortage of repubs who do the same thing.
as a general rule, gay democrats/liberals like Rachel Maddow, Barney Frank and others live openly as gay.
larry craig, mark foley, sheppard smith (fox news) and other repubs who are gay live "closeted" lives, and only come out if they are caught, or they might lie about what they were doing in the minneapolis airport bathroom.
other baggers or repubs on this forum always accuse of lying if we bring up things they do not want to hear. the repubs have used the scandals of Bill Clinton to the utmost extent, impeaching him because they hated him so much. newt gingrich who led this assault was a serial cheater.
george h. w. bush had a longstanding affair with jennifer fitzgerald. as far as is known, this affair started when he was ambassador to china, and lasted throughout his presidency. as ambassador and president, he traveled everywhere with her.

there are many repubs who have done horrible things in regard to sex. remember david vitter (R) who is still in washington, even though it is well known that he saw prostitutes, and had a diaper fettish.
and while it is believed that reagan remained faithful to nancy, she had an affair with frank sinatra.
c'mon. repubs, who have family values, and campaign on the bible, god and hatred for homosexuals are the biggest offenders of sexual offenses. not that democrats don't do their fair share, but democrats as a general rule just don't drag this sh!t out for the american people. did you know that W. bush was a philanderer, and that daddy bush had a long standing affair? probably not, because democrats, as a general rule just don't do this to repubs.
there are many more repubs and democrats i could name. they all do it. but the difference between repubs and democrats is that repubs don't seem to care that they are doing the same things themselves when they call out a democrat.
there is a war on women. if women feel that they have to start all over fighting for the right to take birth control, or to have an abortion legally, or to get paid the same, if women feel that they are being discriminated against. then they probably are.
listen to what the repubs are saying, and there is probably alot they want to do that they don't DARE say.

I am curious when Bill Clinton or JFK were convicted of rape, that is a nefarious and various serious baseless charge
as St. Rick of Pennsylvania if I see it it's bull----, just sayin'
What's made up
personhood proposals
rolling back those who have suffered unequal pay to bring their claims in court. FACT: unequal pay disproportionately effects women
the forced ultrasound to have an abortion even if you don't need one
trying to defund women's health clinics
politizing birth control
guess these things aren't real then
ha yeah right my drone like friend
This is all such BS, there was never a war on women and all you dopey Edheads really should move out of your parents basements and into the real world.
Maybe that is what you shoud do ......it is unreal that some one drops in here does a hit and run and acts as if he knows all about all who post here. Take your bs and go insult someone else.....in other words look to your own self......
Speaking of which........
Guess that is because all Obama wants to do is create havoc AD(112)! They are standing up for the families in this country that want a better tomorrow! Just look at all the damage Obama and his fellow congressmen had done since they have taken office!
Write on, Jeff(113)! The only way they can win is distracting us from all the havoc they’ve created!
Hey Rgnmcs1, JFK and BC took care of the economy, unlike Nixon and Carter! Just sayin’
Hey guys – beachsand & UR – the liberals have taken off, too much logic goin’ on!
I passed a couple of young liberals on the beach this morning.

Van Jones said there's nothing Obama could do to lose the black vote. He said, "I don't believe Obama could lose the black vote if he came out gay" paraphrased. Personally, I'd take offense to that remark if I were black or gay.
Nothing has changed since 2008 about Obama supporters according to him, but I see people everyday that have changed their mind. Some have actually educated themselves and realize how stupid the video below was.

US Attorney General Eric Holder's ballot to vote offered to total stranger. He probably doesn't even know Eric Holder, but if told who he was would probably agree with everything he has done.

Flaming are you? Obama is still our man and we will not be changing our minds. We do have them you know, and we know that what people say and do is for their own agenda, not ours. Thanks to you if I wanted to take the time can find as many derogatory arguments against the loosing There is no such thing in the human world known as perfection, but if it could be measured the left comes the closest.
I WILL TAKE OBAMA any day to anyone you might be able to produce on the right. We have watched their line of circus clowns for the last year and guess what they do not out shine OBAMA. He just is an example that they fear so much they stumble all over themselves and look even more foolish all the time. gop good bye.

I like the reply of the person taking his ballot:
"Hey, as long as you say you are who you are, I am fine with that"...
wow...
and we don't need voter ID???
Have a great day! I don't need to go to a right wing blog or vine. They will vote Republican whether they act like idiots or not. Facts, history, potential harm to our way of life and Obama's record is what we need to know. Not blind faith.
http://www.youtube.com/user/pajamasmedia?v=Y-FGgoReyNE
Obama has a very good record my friend, especially when you compare it to any of the right wing brainwashed blind. I take my faith in Obama.....at least I know that he is kind, smart and will beat any righty on the map. Oh by the way all those on the right have stopped supporting the republican party in many states and they can not even set up supportive republican offices in their communities......can robmy, rove, Alec and the koch put their money in the local offices to get people to vote for them?
Even Coke, Pepsi, and Kraft have deserted the ALEC group and don't want to be connected with them. It just isn't good business.....so you have a nice day and take your blind faith and give it a think.

TM, Bill Gates has also disconnected from the ALEC group. It isn't surprising that John Boehner is a member of ALEC and a spokesman for them. They are putting out millions to pass through their egregious legislation. Citizens United is insuring that this election will be a forum on their right-wing values and that Obama will have to fight harder than ever to win. We all need to get behind him and support him in every way we can. The lies their money will bring to the table will stick to many who are ill informed about what a fine president Obama has been. He cares about working people and women more than any president in recent history.
The Republicans can lie all they want about the "war on women" in their sound bites, but their legislation is on PAPER for all to see. In addition, "Obamacare" will make the women's health care insurance prices equal to men's. As it stands now, and will stand if it is not repealed, women pay way more than men for the same coverage. Obama ends that in 2014.
I doubt that anyone noticed my absence for two days, but a tree took down a power line here and we were without electricity for some time. I missed Ed's show last night as we sat playing dominoes by candlelight! It was 42 degrees out, and chilly inside! No heat at all. We ate by using the charcoal grill outside, even made coffee on it. When you live in the woods you must be prepared.
That sentence should read, WILL STAND IF IT IS repealed. If they repeal Obama care, women will go back to paying more than men for the same coverage.
There's a Republican in congress who wants to repeal the equal pay for equal work bill, also. Excuse me for thinking there's a WAR ON WOMEN!
Now that all this is being EXPOSSED they don't like to be known about.
Obama is stumping for the Buffett rule! Good. Also, I predict that the AARP will eat the Ryan plan for lunch and spit Ryan out at cocktail hour. They have lobbyists, too, I believe.
Ryan's plan is a real budget buster and raises NO revenue. He doesn't want to raise taxes on the almighty "job creators". Well they've had low taxes for decades: WHERE'S THE JOBS?
When the tax rates on the wealthy were in the 70%, we had jobs galore! We had jobs galore under Ike and taxes were around 90% on the rich! Facts are facts. That's a fact!

Check out post #12.5... You should also check out post #17 in my Movie Acronyms game...

David, did it. GOOD! I liked it.
Really, ED??? REALLY??? another day of asking the same question in a new way???
"Is there a war on women?"
"WIll the right be hurt by the war on women?"
"Will anyone on the right step up and denounce the war on women?"
"Will they make the war on women go away by pretending it doesn't exist?"
have you noticed, ED, that the response threads over night get shorter and shorter when you spend too long on a topic??? when you ask RELEVANT questions, you get 6-700 responses in a 24 hour period...when you pull this cr*p, what are we at now, 300??? and we'll MAYBE add 100 today???
this is a classic example, ED, of, JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY SOMETHING OVER AND OVER DOES NOT MAKE IT TRUE"....
there
is
no
war
on
women...
I guess it what your perspective is.....as a woman I see it differently
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-VZLvVF1FQ
you are entitled to your opinion...but this isn't really an issue of opinion...its like 9/11 truthers...they could say "it depends on your perspective- I think 9/11 was an inside job, I see it differently"...thats fine, they are entitled to that opinion, but it doesn't change the fact that we were attacked by 19 Muslim terrorists sponsored by Al Qaida...
same with the war on women...you can see it differently, but it doesn't make it real.
If anything, the "War on Women" will be kept alive by the myth perpetuators like Ed.
I predict that based on last night's show, Ed will recycle his "war on workers" theme, and we'll see that as a question again before too long...

WOW, what a stretch to come to those conclusions...she is really out there...she is a great example of what i said above: she is entitled to her opinion, but it doesn't necessarily reflect reality...
the title of her article should have been: "1 reason the rest of the world will think the U.S. is nuts: reading this article"...
SORRY, CATT, Their legislation is on paper for all to read. We are hardly capable of "conjuring" up these egregious bills they've passed and are trying to pass. They are against women, the poor, and minorities and their bills reflect that quite clearly throughout history.
There is an indisputable paper trail that no one can deny.
Scream on Catt, they aren't messing in your business are they?..... but possibily someones daughter, wife, or mother?
Come_And_Take_Them!
Even the Republican female representatives are calling it an "ATTACK ON WOMEN". Slammed ole McConnell under the bus... hahaha
Tom, There's a turtle I wouldn't stop for and remove from traffic: McConnell!
I used to stop on Florida's back roads and remove the big turtles from the road. For that big two- legged turtle, I'd pass on by! LOL
India-
good day to you. I don't see any historically detrimental bills by the GOP towards women, minorities and the poor. who's legislation was it, TWICE, (once shot down by a liberal) that turned into the "Civil Rights Act?" Shot down by LBJ in 1958, passed by him as President, BOTH TIMES it was Republican legislation.
can you send me a link to this "paper trail", or to a few of these supposed anti-woman acts going on in the U.S House right now? thanks. I'd love to have a look at them for myself...sorry, i don'tt rust Ed- I've learned not to trust TV personalities without doing my own research.
TM- they aren't messing in my business. they also aren't messing in my mom's, my sister's, my wife's, or my daughter's...it just isn't happening...and again, repeatedly saying that it IS, doesn't make it any more true...
Tom- i know you are signed off, but if you see this later, can you send me a source for that? which GOP rep is saying that? again, see above- I don't trust the media, i like to learn for myself. thanks.
Oh, CATT........................hopeless. No cookies for you. A ton of anti-women legislation has been passed just this year in state after state by the GOP. Go to your history books, starting with 1900. We were chattel then and they are trying to make us chattel again!
I read the article posted by TM. I understood most of it but I thought part of it was particularly telling. To paraphrase her she said that when pregnant she did not fell empathy(this would be a surprise i think to most men.) She felt permeability. this I do not understand not the lack of empathy part i take her at her word but that alone is telling but the other part I admit i just do not get.
she felt permeability all I was able to find is below. could someone please enlighten me. No snark honest confusion.
Hey TC, Here's the one who rules our house. I recall what a cat lover you are. You should meet this one! LOL He'd look at you with those big golden, intelligent eyes and you'd.........run the other way! Ha!
Hope you are well and enjoyed Easter. On Monday we suffered a power outage here. Very unpleasant. We played dominoes last night by candlelight! So romantic, with a good Malbec! LOL
Sorry, India...thanks for the response, and I actually jsut had cookies with my lunch. :) so I am good...
Well, if you do have any federal legislation that you can send me to, I'd be more than happy to read it, and keep an open mind...until then, I just don't see it...but thanks anyways...
I'll never see women as "Chattel" (nice word!)...
but do you find it at all ironic, that the founder of Planned Parenthood (Margret Sanger) was an avowed racist and eugenisist, and one of her primary missions of planned parenthood was to "eliminiate black babies", whom she called "human weeds,' 'reckless breeders,' 'spawning... human beings who never should have been born." ...and this statement doesn't exactly seem very uplifting to me either: The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it...
sorry, i could never back an organization born of such hatred towards women...i love and respect them too much.
CATT, I am a pro-life Catholic but I can see where planned parenthood helps many women with issues other than abortion. I don't recall any women being forced to go to PP for an abortion. That would be their choice. You and I may disagree, but Roe-V-Wade is legal and I do not force my morality on others as the GOP seems to like to do. Ditto my religion. I love women and babies, too. I am a woman and the mother of three. I do not want to be discriminated against for any reason!
And now I must do that which goes against my religion and my morality: Go to the dentist! LOL (Oh, I hate that!) Catch you all tonight.
ugh...the dentist is miserable....
India, we would largely agree...I am not a Catholic...and I am even pro-choice... andyoua re right- no one forces women to go to PP...i don't try to force my morality on anyone either, i think you know that about me by now. Abortion is not for me, but I understand Roe-v-Wade and its significance. My only concern is the federal level of the law. I'd be happier if its were a states issue, much liek gay marriage. I am personally not for it, but if the state votes to have it, then party on, gay people! I am a father of 3, 2 girls, and I don't want them discriminated against either...but thats just it- I do not believe that there is any legislation that is doing that...
have a good day, if thats possible with the dentist...good luck...ugh! talk to you later, I hope you see this response..
CATT, Thanks, actually I got very lucky. In and right out! No drilling required! Whew! I do appreciate your thoughtful comment.
