Senator Reid, IT IS TIME TO SHUT DOWN THE SENATE AGAIN!!!

[Nimrod2005]

In desperation moves, the GOP mother fuckers are bringing up more and more of their silly ass so called wedge issues, which is simply destructive to all Americans and our country.

The English as our National Language is one
The Fence or how big of a fence is another
The Immigration issue
The gay Marriage issue
The CIA confirmation where we can't know ANYTHING because it is a SECRET
Asshole Roberts saying we won't have liberty if we are dead...etc.
The $70 billion tax cut * just signed...
Talk about flag burning coming up again...

All of these things are bullshit...Reid needs to close the Senate for the same reason he closed it last time, where is the second phase of the 9/11 intelligence failure and investigation?

Instead of real issues, real government work, GOP is EXTREMELY busy with stuff that only help them position themselves for the November elections...

Will someone somewhere please stand up and help take our country back?

1. seems like hillary supports flag burning ban, if I recall correctly nt

[niallmac]

26. She compared flag burning to burning a cross..

The analogy is lost on me. One represents the darkest places of racism and hate in our country.
The other represents a political statement, inflammatory to some but a political statement.
We really sincerely need a leader in these times of national crises. If Hillary wants to pander to get
votes then she is same ol same ol. It is especially odious when educated folks like Hillary pander. Not so odious when ignorant
country bumpkin reps do it.
Pandering is what fascism thrives on.

2. Yes but . . . these (mostly) trivial issues can be turned around . . .

So they bite the 'Licans on the ass in November. How does "Do-nothing, know-nothing Republican Congress" sound to you? How about "They can't get out of Iraq, but they want to get in your bed." Or "Republicans stand for cowardice in the face of terror." Or, my favorite "50 bucks for you; millions for the millionaires."

All of these initiatives (tax handouts excepted) are tremendously unserious, and the people are coming to realize it. Even if a majority of voters oppose same-sex marriage, most of them -- at heart -- really don't care that much, compared to real issues.

I say the 'Licans are digging their graves even deeper, if we can capitalize on their trivialization of governance.

[Nimrod2005]

7. Wow, thank you, I had not seen this...I am glad the outside world

is also watching these punks......

[kaygore]

16. Thank you. Very well said and really worth watching!

[grateful581]

18. Cafferty is exactly right

Specter and cat-killer can kiss my ass. These assholes are pandering to the crazy hate-mongering right wing.
I don't want discrimination in my Constitution!

Who would Jesus Hate?

[Quakerfriend]

5. Thank you for shouting this out!

...and, you can add this non-stop polygamy news to your list, as well.

6. The republican platform is being laid out

before us and boy does it look like a divisive POS

[Virginia Dare]

8. But,

he might hurt Fristy's feelings again!

:cry: :nopity:

[Nimrod2005]

9. I can wait for Frist to get his ankle bracelet!!!

[Canuckistanian]

10. Oh yeah, I remember Harry Reid

He took a few courageous stands on some issues. What's he up to these days?

[enough already]

11. Why aren't they talking about filibustering Hayden?

That nazi oversaw the illegal wiretapping program and now we're going to roll over and put him in charge at CIA??? Bush is under 30% approval and we can't stop a dirtbag like Hayden? This country gets scarier every day.

[depakid]

12. Maybe because they really aren't interested in winning

in November.

If they let that Hayden through at this point, I don't see how they can look the public in the eyes and ask them to have confidence in the Dem leadership.

[Nimrod2005]

13. This has been most disappointing issue, we know he ran the program

to spy on us, we know he is in bed with Rummy, 70% no longer support the war, but nobody is speaking out.

I hate to see a would-be top spy, sitting there in his military uniform - Just scary.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

19. Hayden as head of the CIA has me so depressed I don't even want to blog

For the briefest of moments I thought the CIA might go after the Bushists, when that analysts publicly proved Rummy was a liar but instead a criminal will be appointed to head the agency.

[kentuck]

14. You are watching desperation in action.

They are pulling every right-wing issue out of the hat, because they see the future and it doesn't include them.

[Nimrod2005]

15. Yup, and they throwing all of it at the wall and waiting to see what

will stick...

[Nimrod2005]

20. I guess they did pass the gay marriage thing today?

How sad for all of us...

[paineinthearse]

21. Wish we had 50 more like Russ Feingold

[november3rd]

22. I say

Give me liberty, or give Roberts death!

[TankLV]

23. I support English as THE national language.

[watercolors]

24. time to shut doen Harry Reid!!!

He is making a fool of the Dem party!

[zann725]

25. Didn't realize it was STILL open on Dem side....except for an isolated,

occasioinal Durbin, Feingold, Kennedy comment. Not actual winning votes, but comments...a few.
