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.

Ahdidajihad should be held as a "guest" for 444 days.

As if the poor people of Darfur haven't suffered enough, now they want to send more UN troops. Heaven help those poor folks.

Last I heard the UN was fighting over whether to refer to the murdering hordes there as committing genocide. Kofi didn't want that designation.

The UN needs to fall into the East River.

As a Steeler fan myself I gotta say, folks, there was another team on the field last night. A good one at that. (but I still hate Jacksonville)

I love the president's voice-of-the-oppressed-people approach in his speech to the U.N. general assembly right now.

It also seems appropriate that a representative from Sudan appeared to be laughing at Bush's talk of the genocide there.

My guess is that Dubya is a Dallas Cowboys fan!

Great idea! I would love to see the Muslims go apesh*t.

Maybe she used the coran for TP??

Who is replacing Kofi?

"My guess is that Dubya is a Dallas Cowboys fan!"

I'd be very surprised if he wasn't. He's a Texan, through and through!

Get your barf bag out.

Poms shouldn't smoke. It'll stunt their growth.

Bill Clinton. LOL

[MaestroLC]

Dem reaction: "Lies. Provocative. Halliburton."

[American Quilter]

I had to duck out for a minute. Who's that speaking--Kofi?

[jackv]

Haul that ballbaby out in cuffs. He makes me sick!!!

[ChicagoConservative27]

Yes, Kofi.
