Another example of why letting the Democrats ever again controll any portion of the Federal Goverment is insanely risky. The notion that once in they would easily be routed out of power again is nonsense.

Secret plan alleged on campaign financing Sacramento Bee ^ | 9/19/6 | Jim Sanders

A California Nurses Association publication indicates the group is pushing the Proposition 89 campaign-finance measure as a Trojan horse to get what it covets most: universal health care, opponents said Monday.
Allan Zaremberg, president of the California Chamber of Commerce, said the strategy basically was spelled out in a document that appeared on the nurses association Web site.
"They have a two-step process here," he said. "One is to eliminate the ability of business to communicate with the voters. The second step is to have government-run health care on the next ballot ... and deny voters the ability to hear the other side."
Proposition 89 would allow public financing of campaigns for state offices, an overhaul touted as a way to discourage undue influence by well-heeled special interests.
The measure, crafted by the CNA, is on the Nov. 7 ballot.
Chuck Idelson, spokesman for both the CNA and the Yes on Proposition 89 campaign, said the nurses group has supported universal health care for many years but that the campaign-finance initiative is not specifically linked to that goal.
Universal health care is a bitterly controversial concept to replace California's system of private health insurance with a state-run system to provide medical care to every resident.

Excellent, Mr. President, just excellent. Not that you'll convince any of those U.N. thugs, but at least you're getting the message out.
Why not? Kruschev,Castro, Arrafat,Chavez, the list goes on.
Any further news.
I was inclined to think so...but there are a LOT of Muslim radicals behind the Army...I'm not sure who has the guns and the loyalty of the military. The other thing going on is that Thaksin doesn't pay the customary baksheesh to the army generals and colonels and the Army feels its power is threatened. Plus, the Army doesn't WANT to fight the Islamic terrorists. Buddhists typically don't like to fight even though they will be consumed if they don't. In that, the Army is like Democrats...
LGM!!
Or more'n likely just some debris.
Oh they're being rude, all right. They'd be booing him if they thought they could get away with it.
Thanks for the ping...listening and working!
Where is any evidence that anyone is caving to McCain? McCain is the odd man out in this. The overwhelming majority of Republicans support Bush and oppose McCain and McCain knows it.
That dog just scared Ern's Poms!
Isn't there an Iranian woman on the shuttle? Maybe it's pages of the coran!!!
Oh good, now he's getting ready to bash McCain. Says the DBM is rallying around McCain and that he's getting heat, which he'll add to in a minute! LOL....
McLame is scared. He's the one who will cave.
And you are using Thailand for your retirement community?
I am so sick of this useless, impotent, corrupt organization. When will we wise up and get out?
Imadamnutjob is boycotting because President Bush won't debate him or appear with him. The games petty tyrants play.
I'm a Steeler fan and they sure sucked last night.
Iranian American woman. She hs an American flag and an Iranian flag on her space suit.
Yes, Thailand stages peaceful coups. Just don't go into downtown Bangkok and you wouldn't know anything is happening. The countryside is calm...likely things will settle down shortly. This is a bit silly because I don't the coup makers are in control of anything but a few buildings right now.
