Any comments on Sarah’s HELLthcare facebook comments?
When did they stop caring?
That depends on if you really believe that the libs or the media care about anything but their own power and influence.
Citizens ain't nothin' but the suckers who get those last two rights: Pay Up and Shut Up.
“FNS panel now talking about “historic” confirmation and swearing in of Sonia Sodamizor.”
I have a Filipina friend who is trying her best to learn her English better and bless her heart, she is really trying. She can read English wery well but has trouble, sometimes, with her spelling. Well, one night, while chatting, we were talking about Sonia Sotomayor. I was using the words; new supreme court justice, and she wanted to use Sotomayor’s name. So, she decided to spell Sotomayor. She spelled it as Sodoamayor. I couldn’t help but LOL.
The market rallies are tied to the O approval ratings.
The lower his ratings the higher the market.
It’s a scenario that has been proven out for decades.
LOL! OMG! I completely forgot that little detail. ROFL!
LOL.......Gen Jones not giving all the credit to the measiah?
Suddenly death care is off the radar?
National security is now important to the ostammer administration? LOL!!!!!!!
“There’s a Youtube video of them blowing up a perfectly good Olds Aurora engine.”
I saw the one with the Volvo.
BTW this conference call was made after the SEIU beat up Kenneth Gladney and roughed up another lady at the same meeting. And she expressly told those SEIU members who attended that meeting to "keep doing what you're doing" (according to MM on her blog.)
You can see this in context here: Are you paying attention now?
and here: Are you paying attention now? ver. 2
A lot of people are mad that they are being lied to. Local talk radio here has all sorts of people calling in upset about this health care program.
I am beginning to think that they should go ahead and pass this health care turkey. Let them put down what they want in an actual bill, so that they can't dodge questions by saying "we don't have a final bill yet." Then everyone could run against democrats by promising to repeal the bill.
They know that the nation has to be torn down before it can be rebuilt on a socialist model.
The far left could’t care less how badly the average American is hurt by their policies. They have the power to wound capitalism enough in this two year period, that it may never recover.
I believe they will do it. Watch for the Dems in the Senate to bypass or eliminate the filibuster for Crap and Trade, the Health Bill for now, immigration later. That has to happen for their agenda to succeed.
Based on what Jones is saying on Fox, the plan for Afghanistan seems to be declare victory and leave.
Watch for the moves after the Afghan election.
“When did the media stop caring about the powerless vs. the powerful?”
About 35 years ago?
Do you believe stuffinguphisnose s being gregory in the ratings.
Who’d a thunk it.
Mayor Bloomers can contribute nothing to the recovery operation on the river.
That's a very good observation. The first question then becomes, how many people out there agree with us? The second question then is, for those that do agree, are they turned off by the so-called antics, or getting more frustrated by the driveby media's and democrats attempt to portray us as a "right-wing rabble"?
I'm hearing that many of the people protesting are democrats, or vote democrat. Are we all hearing the same? Is it true?
If it is, then good, they won't be happy by the smear they're organized by the GOP. If it's not true, then where are our organizers?
And Chris Wallace, if you're reading this, an email--one that very few of us FReepers, for example, heard of--is NOT organization!
Byron York on Fox News cable discussing the fishy we site.
Points out that the Presidential Records Act requires all e-mails to the White House be saved. Also points out that the White House is exempt from FOIA, so you can’t subpoena records to see what they do with all of those e-mails.
Also says that there are huge numbers of people e-mailing the site either with their own personal opposition to government health care or sending in prank stuff or Obama’s own speeches, so he doesn’t know how they are going to be able to sift through everything.
Jamie, the current anchor, points out the shutting down of town halls and this web site seems to be a push back against free speech.
York says that the president could walk this back by saying that they didn’t mean for people to turn in their neighbors and that although they are required to keep the info they won’t do anything with it.
He then points out that Obama has not done so, which he says pointedly.
Jersey City police officer shot to death a few weeks ago. The nutcase Mayor went berserk against guns guns guns.
Next week a crazed man with a knife attacked the police.
Silence from the Mayor.
That said, it seems there is criticism of the plan to send police officers into a home where a known gunman was hiding, rather than trying to talk the man out.
Liberals ARE The Establishment - but the MSM wants to pretend they're hippie kids needing protection.
Either - the power shifted and the MSM was too stupid to notice, or they were always in the bag for one side...
Wallace deliberately misrepresenting the emails. They are advising where and when the town halls are being held.
There are NO instructions to disrupt.
