these people are completely nutz

do they not understand how taxes work or do they just hope that their base doesn't?

Considering that the TEA Party doesn't understand that they are paying less taxes under Obama than they have been, I suppose asking them to understand this is a bit much....

do even the repugs think that this stale, dumb joke is funny?

Considering that every repug who tells this joke is reading it from a teleprompter, you would think that they would be embarrassed by it. But, I guess nothing can embarrass a repug...

yeah sure, that makes sense

It is too bad that our own citizens have to suffer because of the actions of the government - especially bush's administration.

Wouldn't it have been nice if Obama had done what he promised and closed Gitmo and forcefully denounced this type of action from our military?

mind-bogglingly un-Constitutional

Nevada anti-women's rights nutcases

Group wants to put abortion issue on Nevada ballot

LAS VEGAS (AP) -- An anti-abortion group is trying to get a measure on the ballot so Nevada voters can ban abortion.

The Nevada Prolife Coalition filed a petition filed with the Secretary of State's office defining a person as all stages of biological development before birth.

The Las Vegas Sun reported Thursday that the petition would prohibit "the intentional taking of a prenatal person's life."

To get the question on a statewide ballot, the group must gather more than 72,000 valid signatures from the state's three congressional districts.

A coalition of abortion rights groups is opposing the anti-abortion effort.

A similar effort last year to ban abortions in Nevada failed after a district judge ruled the petition language was too vague.

"Prenatal person"?! You mean a clump of cells?!

Jeez, I hate these unconstitutional, women-hating assholes....

So, no taxes at all, except for the taxes that we need. Makes perfect sense - if you're an insane repug....

insane repug bigotry

MICHIGAN SENATE CANDIDATE WANTS TO CAP THE NUMBER OF MUSLIMS ALLOWED INTO AMERICA | Businessman Peter Konetchy, one of five Republicans running to face Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D) in 2012, told attendees at a forum today that he supported capping the number of Muslims allowed to immigrate to the United States, the Grand Rapids Press reported. “The Muslims are setting up their own little groups that don’t want to assimilate,” Konetchy said. “Right now, we’re at war with Islam.”

10th anniversary of bin laden and bush destroying our country

I always say that bin Laden must have gone to his grave a happy man, since he was able to succeed beyond his wildest dreams of destroying everything that America stood for - with George W. Bush's immense help, of course. Bush destroyed any good will that we received after the attack and destroyed our standing in the world by his pointless wars, destroyed our economy, destroyed the rights that our country was founded on, etc etc etc.

I would have hoped that the lesson learned from all of this would be to not over-react to attacks - and fight only those who actually attacked us - and not to lose ourselves in fear, hatred and bigotry, but it seems like that is a vain hope.

If only we had a president that was committed to reversing all the evil that those two men committed against our country, but, sadly, it does not look like we will have that any time soon, either.

The attacks were horrendous and unspeakably evil, but we could have and would have come through them stronger than ever if we had not cowered in fear and given away all of our rights and everything that the country stood for in order to let bush "protect" us.

Gawd help us all if we get another insane repug as president next year...

Obama pivots to jobs - and dares GOP to follow

It's not like the repugs care about what happens to the people of this country - as long as the ultra-wealthy can keep their tax breaks (that should have expired long ago and if they did, we wouldn't have the deficit problem that we currently have).

If he'd stop acting like a republican - who will always hate him, no matter what - and actually show some spine and accomplish some things that he said he would when he campaigned, then maybe he's be doing better in the polls!

why doesn't Obama just run as a repug in 2012 and let us elect a real Democrat?

He does any and everything the repugs want as it is - why doesn't he just call himself one so we can get someone who will act like a Democrat in the White House.
This really is sickening.
