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.

Watching Rush on Dittocam-- he is so MAD! He looks likke he might explode...
Thanks for the questions about Thailand. Obviously the news is very sketchy now, but the prevailing belief is that there are disaffected Army units who don't like the anti-Muslim stance taken by Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. There are also internal political problems ... but think of Thaksin as President Bush and the opposition is politically weak but have some Army support. Elections were held in April which the opposition boycotted because they couldn't win...After the King intervened, new elections were re-scheduled for November, but it is feared that disaffected Army units are taking advantage of the PM being in NY to attempt to oust him. We'll see.. In the meantime, I agree with Rush about being SICK AND TIRED of Islamo-Fascists. I've had it too...
He needs to get another one of those orange tans.
I don't blame him.
And THEN some...
Excellent rant, Rush..
the US Court of Military Justice would require us to give Miranda warnings at the moment of battlefield capture for an al Qaeda terrorist.
