Re: U.S. says Palestine statehood creates ‘obstacles’ to peace

Israel creates all the “obstacles” to peace.

It's some twisted politics that allows basic human rights to be ignored. Both the US & Israel share in the perversions of an unholy alliance. The Palestinians are forced to live in an open air prison camp.
How can Israel or the US justify these atrocities?

Breitbart is clearly a very disturbed lowlife. I think Alec Baldwin had the most quotable quote when he called Breitbart a ‘festering boil on the anus of public discourse’.

"White House hopeful"... that's funny..
This guy can barely count to three, do ya think he really understands the environmental impact with the pursuit of tars sands as an energy source?
Ok that's not really funny.

Let's start with the people of Ohio who keep reelecting this ignoramus.
This guy "Boner" who passed out checks from the tobacco lobby on the House floor is their leader ? Could the bar be any lower ? Well there is Louie "terror babies" Gohmert if your search is for really really stupid.

Is it ironic or just insulting that these "posers" recite the Pledge of Allegiance and walk away?

We desperately need more progressive choices.

The Paul's libertarian idea of a minimalist government would remove some good stuff like the EPA, FAA, FDA, etc. Although many agencies need improvements we need the regulations. The free market cannot be left to it's own devises.
Parks & Recreation would go away and the national forests as well as most natural resources and such would probably be sold off to the self regulated free markets that only the deluded still embrace.
Any social safety net would be phased out. No SS, Medicare or Medicaid. The poor, aged and even those with disabilities would have to rely on the kindness of strangers.

I do agree that we need to decriminalize pot, audit or abolish the Fed, stop the foreign occupations, building bases, playing world police and bring the troops home.

Romney may be the most disingenuous excuse for a candidate in the last decade.
What he stands for depends on what day it is and which crowd/microphone is in front of him.
His stance is based on which ever way the wind the blows.
"To blow" may be an expression but Romney sucks outloud.

We desperately need some justice. My initial impulse in regards to the Bush crime syndicate is to 'hang 'em high'. All of 'em Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld & Rice.
But the thought of Rummy playing drop the soap in prison gives me goose bumps.

Uh no Gov... Congress is broke that's for sure but nothing changes till you get money out of politics.

Re: U.S. angry at Israeli settlement move

elementaljim — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 11:02:11 -0000

Cut 'em off... No more foreign aid to Israel,, This BS "super committee" should reevaluate ALL foreign aid.
After all the US is broke, right? If we can't afford Medicare-for-all health care than we can't afford to feed AIPAC and we certainly can't afford destroying then rebuilding Iraq & Afghanistan. If the conversation is all about budget deficits and huge national debt then we can't afford expanding this empire and the war games the neocons love so much.

Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Gonzales, Bybee & Woo.. Some should be in front of a firing squad and some should be held in the hell they created in Guantanamo.
Oh yeah Christine Todd Whitman should be a given a dose of 9/11 dust since she was the one that addressed the 1st responders and told them the air was "OK".

"Mr. Cheney had a long and distinguished career..." No He Didn't! He's a war criminal and war profiteer.
Each one of these sociopaths from BushCo have written a book and made the rounds on MSM's most negligent. Powell's credibility ain't what it used to be..

Good news I guess.. Deposing any teabagger despot is good.
What I would rather see is her to run for president in 2012. We really, really, really need a real progressive representative. Obama ain't gettin' it done. He has gotta be the weakest negotiator on the freakin' planet and his allegiance to Wall Street is grounds for legal separation.

Re: Boehner still insisting on ‘cut, cap and balance’ plan

I really wish that everyone (especially the media) would start pronouncing Boehner's name phonetically. It's Boner not Baner and Boner is infinitely more appropriate.

Re: Boehner still insisting on ‘cut, cap and balance’ plan

Boehner is a pinhead and huge failure as speaker. But he is the best that party had to offer? Really sad..

Re: Obama blames speculators for high gasoline prices

elementaljim — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 10:07:58 -0000

Market manipulation is a great big DUH!
More prevalent in oil markets for decades but futures trading in commodities is responsible for higher gas, food, etc... What remains to be seen is if Obama has the stones to bring about any real change? Talk is cheap and he does like to talk. History has shown when Wall Street needs an overhaul you don't place the same miscreants responsible for the fraud in key positions expecting REAL change.

Re: House Republicans Pass Obamacare For Seniors!

elementaljim — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 09:25:17 -0000

Oy...Here we have on record, a Republican budget plan, endorsed with Republican votes, to privatize Medicare, provide more tax breaks for the wealthy and defund programs that support poorest people struggling to survive and people still don't seem to get it. Why are they not out in the streets screaming "I've had all that I can stand and I'm not going to take it anymore"!

Re: Boehner Bomb Coming?

elementaljim — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 12:28:41 -0000

As far as ethics we will probably see the same response as we saw with Vitter & Ensign.
I would like to see the media slap Boner(sp-ha) around a bit so that we can watch him cry.

"Bush was sincere".. What flavor is the kool-aid you like so much?
Bush was NEVER sincere about anything except making more profits for himself, his daddy and Cheney. He absolutely cared nothing about you, me or anyone at ground zero.
I will agree with some of the others that Obama hasn't missed a photo op.

Lyin' prick. Blah, blah, blah. He is as full of shit as a bloated bull.
He gives in way too much in the name of compromise and it's a lie.
We get sold out and this idiot lives in denial.
It sucks and I'm pissed... coulda guessed, right?

She should be disqualified as a candidate. If being stupid wasn't enough to disqualify her then lying or fraud should suffice. BTW, what does this say about the people of Delaware who voted for this dimwit?

Here's a quote from a more reputable O'Donnell.
