Free Republic

I personally don’t think a two state solution will work. Israel was told to concede land and the attacks on Israel will stop. Israel complied and the land was used to escelate the attacks. This has happened continuously throughout history. I believe that if two states are formed, it will be demanded that Israel give up more...and more...and more. The attacks will continue.

Liberalism is a mental disease that eats and corrodes the fabric of society. I strongly believe this charade with the bank fallouts was orchestrated by the libs and their strong ties to these banks (thus explaining the uncanny timing of all three to come out at once right before the election). Being so, this resulting administration entered on a premise of lies to the American people (it’s all Bush’s fault, i.e.). We are going to have to face up to this soft tyrany or be squashed by a hard tyrany before long.

Well, not always. I am agnostic, and I don’t do anything just because the Bible tells me to do it. However, the Bible and christianity teach good morals and upstanding behavior.....very good virtues. I try to follow those teachings, but it’s by my own moral compass.

Our leftist media went hay-wire with Sara Palin. A couple of things they used to destroy her on were (1) the clothes loaned to her for the campaign, and (2) that she has kids and should be at home because she doesn’t have time to be in politics. Talk about hypocrisy to the max !!!

Michelle Obama spends all her time galavanting around the media and living it up....away from her kids. The claim that Palin needed to be with her kids doesn’t apply to a liberal. It’s OK for them to abandon their kids...not for a President’s post, either...but for a first lady that lives the life of a celebrity movie star. Compare her to previous first ladies. She’s a disgrace.

Secondly, Michelle has a very large collection of extravegant clothes. She behaves like a movie star getting ready to walk on the red carpet....but she does it every day. This is apparently OK to the liberal media, but Palin’s loaned clothes were over the line on extravegance.

Our media has become an extension of the liberal party, and they are no better than state run media full of propaganda. FOX does have conservative propaganda on it, but they also air the rebuttle arguments of the libs. The libs DO have a voice on FOX. Can anyone say that about the mainstream media concerning the conservatives? I don’t think you can.

Exactly, and I think it’s going to happen faster than what anyone ever believed...including myself.

People laugh when this is mentioned, but they better wake up. Obama’s behavior before the elections was one sign. In Missouri, he got with the liberal prosecutors and formed a “truth squad”. They were threatening to arrest anyone speaking out against Obama that they decided skewed his actual positions and past. That’s politics, folks !! It’s also protected under our freedom of speech laws. Politicians have always put a spin on their beliefs and policies, and if anyone tried to point out the Obama lies he wanted them arrested.

Tyrany is on it’s way.

I loved your response. It’s a threesome that needs to disband in my opinion. Even though the company gets perks out of it, too, it obviously still winds up collapsing in the end. The rest of society should not have to pay for the gains of union employees, the Democrats, and a business that can’t make responsible executive decisions. Of course we should pay for it if we want to buy their cars, but with a model like that the price is too high and they can’t compete. They deserve to fail and let the void be filled by more responsible players that aren’t polluted by political involvement...or greedy unions.

The collusion between the libs and the UAW is so great that the unions won’t back down and the libs won’t let the unions die because the company dies. Their solution, make everyone else pay for the excesses of the union workers and keep the company alive. The libs are beholden to the unions that donate massive amounts of money to the DNC. In effect, the libs are forcing all citizens to support their party by using tax dollars to keep a company alive that is strangled by the union that feeds the Democrat party. Let the company die, let the UAW die, and let the libs find a legitimate source of revenue.

The same thing is happening with ACORN and the libs. An obvious fraudulant Democrat organization that is supported by everyone’s tax dollars. The libs have pushed billions of dollars toward this criminal group that benefits Democrats only. The Democrat party have become experts on how to force the public to pay for their political contributions....via unions, ACORN, etc.

I agree with the previous comments. The UAW is what killed GM. Even with the company going under, the union refused to budge, and with good reason. Liberal politicians are very, very big union supporters. I’m sure the UAW knew that the Democrats would (and will continue to) take money from every other working citizen in the country to pay for the bloated salaries, wages and benefits of GM employees. The only way to salvage a company that has a terrible business model like GM is to let them swim or drown. The void will be picked up by other auto manufacturers that are more responsible and don’t let the union destroy the company in a self indulgent manner. Unions can be good if kept small and under control, but the UAW is way out of control and demands more and more no matter how much it damages the company.

That was stupid. I’m new to the site and my previous comment was to the video that was on this page. I didn’t even stop to think that the video had nothing to do with the article until after I came back to the page and it had a different video, different topic. Sorry for the confusion....you can stop wondering what I’m smoking now, lol.

I don’t believe for a second that higher taxes coupled with higher government spending is meant to jumpstart the economy. Liberals are VERY big on control, and the best way to do it is through taxes and redistribution of wealth (socialism). I’ve been laughed at for saying that government uses taxes to control people and/or businesses behavior, but look at the upcoming cap and trade. It’s a very high tax designed to curb the output of CO2 by businesses. Also, Obama has said that he wants to raise taxes on gas to curb our oil consumption. One last example is how Hilary said she wanted to take away $20 billion from the oil companies unless they invested in alternative energy. I don’t know about you, but all of the above are taxes designed to control business.

There’s only one woman on the show with any common sense at all. I like watching ONLY to see her try to handle the leftist idiots on the show. Joyce (Joy?) is dumber than a box of rocks.

I don’t think any of us are surprised, but Obama’s cult followers are actually getting what they think is a good idea. Obama isn’t going to follow the normal channels of conducting business. He has already told the Democrats and the Republicans (separately) that “he won” and HE was going to make the decisions. So much for checks and balances. Has anyone noticed how heavily he is using the executive order? He thinks he’s God,and no one else has a say in anything.
