Not true, to pass something only requires a +50% majority so long as the President agrees. The only time it requires +66% is when the president attempts to veto the bill. No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. |

Originally posted by qazyman Am I MAD, thats debatable...but I've certainly been called worse. The problem being that we have a more corrupt congress than ever right now, they throw out the people from meetings that stand up for the people, THEY HAVE NOT DONE THIS IN THE PAST. They care nothing for the people, it is all about their agenda. ask Marcy Kaptur.. she knows "wassup" and she isn;t afraid to tell the people either. The problem is there are very few Kapturs fighting for us, and we have to clean these others out before we can get more in there. The balance is way off that is why these things have been able to happen, the balance will be farther off if Pelosi has absolute power. Obama does what pelosi says ... and that isn't going to be good for anyone. We should have been saying "hello" to a third party for a while now, but see they have corrupted the system to such extreme that no one even gets to hear what the third parties are offering. They are not even allowed in the main presidential debates, and they very well should be. Unless that changes there is no way any 3rd party will be able to "buy " their way in because that is the only way they can get there. They get no air time, and the majority of the country doesn't even know about the 3rd party. I do not think they will be "moderate" in their decicions, far from it, this is the most liberal congress and presidential candidate this country has ever seen. I don;t think they even care if they get reelected, they think that as long as they get the uneducated people out to vote they can win via media blitz. It works for power rangers why not the white house? You see they have propaganda on their side, what do the people have? Nothing.

The American people want real change. If Obama and Pelosi don't deliver they will be in the same boat Bush is in right now. I agree that they try to fool the voters to retain power; I just don't think this has proved to be a good way to govern. If your views are correct, the Dem's will go down if flames and voters will start to look to other options. A media blitz will not cover up lies and failure for very long. BTW you keep saying politics is about individuals not parties. If this is true why didn't McCain run as the Maverick he has been his whole career? That was a Joe I could have voted for.

well, you see how far Bob barr got on his own.. why do you think Ron Paul went republican?, ( which I still wish they had chose him instead) without the backing from one of the parties you don;t have a snowballs chance in hell of winning. You get no advertsing, no press, no debates, no televised speeches.. nothing.. so no one even knows you ran at all. To me it is about indviduals, I cannot understand how anyone could vote straight ticket ever without even knowing what or who they are voting for. I actually look at each and every person runnig for office in every position so that I can make a sound decision. The majority of voters do not and that is a problem. |

Did you notice how they came after him with that racism charge after he raised all that money? I think your wrong to think Ron Paul's views don't have a place in America's future. If the Dem's fail, thats where people will turn. Ron Paul was the best candidate in the race IMHO. |

I fully agree, and the republicans would have taken this in a land slide if they had nominated him instead. |

Originally posted by qazyman Thank You! I hadn't had a good laugh today until I read this On a side note. We have just witnessed the greatest redistribution of wealth since the 20's and 30's. All of it going to the wealthy. This is why the middle class is hurting so bad, they have been bled dry. Why is there such an emotional response when they use politics to strike back? Lets just hope Obama can help. I'll let you in on a little secret....America's middle class is far more important to global stability than America's wealthy could ever hope to be. We are the one's who do the work; we are the ones who pay the bills! I was laughing at this too. The only Tickle down I want to see is out of Palin's ***.

Paul/Palin '08! Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL! |

I call it as I see it.... and I called it as I see it when you make a call out for everyone to report someone over something COMPLETELY unconnected. I stand by the statement. |

Hyperbole. If McCain wins, we'll go to war with every country in the world. If Obama wins, the USA will be just lke the old Soviet Union. The world won't end if either one gets elected. |

Wow, I can't stand how people have no idea what the true concept of racism is. Instead you tout this 'new/reverse racism'. This ain't racism, reverse or otherwise, and to think so is plain stupidity.

I think it's a statement of what the percieved motive of Dems nominating him were. Concidering the delegate selection, I wouldnt be suprised if they were right, actually.... |
