I actually liked his comments on healthcare and there seemd to rapport between Issa and Huffington.

Fat inmate hides gun in the folds of his fat:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/200....._hides_gun
In the past, I have asked obese people if they like to hide snacks in the folds of their fat, instead of using their pockets. Sometimes they would become angry at my question. The above story proves my suspicion right. Fat people store objects in the folds of their belly fat.
YLB spews:
3 – Marvin Stamn has spoken out against heavy people in these threads. In fact he called Obama’s candidate for Surgeon General, a “fat ass”.
But combine a heavy tea bagger, the second amendment and a health care townhall – you have a potent “conceal to carry” strategy to use against “union thugs” when it’s screamin’ time against the lib-leaning Congress Critter.

Susan Hutchinson says “my lips are sealed.”
Finally some honesty from her – about her campaign for county executive, which has been notable for what she’s refused to say about things voters want to know.
Like: is she a Republican?
She has fought for months the release of public records that were improperly sealed.
She won’t answer questions.
She avoids candidate forums.
Yes, her lips are sealed, unless her lips are reading from a script prepared by her campaign staff, which she does quite well.

Hutchison Another Lying Republican spews:
Susan Hutchison lied to her employer and got caught. The thing is, when you’re caught red-handed, you should own up to what you did. She might would have been able to salvage her job if she’d told KIRO, “I was wrong,” and apologized. People can relate to calling the boss cause you were tired and just wanted or needed a day off. But lying and taking a vacation, then covering up the lie, makes the employee look untrustworthy to the employer. Hutchison claims to be a “Christian” but she went around lying to her bosses and spreading vicious gossip about her fellow workers. What kind of “Christian” is that? And who would want to work with someone like that? Or, who wants another LYING REPUBLICAN CLAIMING TO BE A CHRISTIAN running the government. Can’t trust Hutchison to tell the truth.

Ekim spews:
And lost. Just saw on NWCN that the judge unsealed the records.
Marvin Stamn spews:
Is she not obese? You can make the call. Look up what is considered obese and just like you judge people you hate, judge her. Yes, SGs in the past have been obese, does that mean she should get a free pass?
An obese surgeon general giving health advice is a joke. Would YOU spend your money on a CPA that just filed bankruptcy for himself? Or maybe invest your earnings (oops, you don’t earn, you live off someone else’s work), would you invest someone elses earnings with someone that is piss poor?
If you don’t know, obesity is one of the big problems with healthcare, people have such little respect for themselves they allow themselves to get fat. Of course, it’s not all black and white, thereare a few people that are fat due to no fault of their own. But for the other 99.9% of the fat population, the blame lays on their plates.
Would you think it’s fair if you paid more for car insurance, not because of your driving habits, but because others drive drunk.
Why are you offended I am pointing out obesity is a major problem in amerikkka?
Obesity, which disproportionately affects African Americans and other minority groups, is a risk factor for a number of chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease and some cancers.
Strange how the planks of the democrat party works out. For abortions, which blacks make up a disproportionately number of those aborted. Now you are whining about me raising the issue of obesity while once again, blacks suffer disproportionately. And lets not forget how in the same school district (democrat controlled of course), blacks drop out disproportionately to the white students.
Funny how the democrat agenda works out for the black population.
And if being called fat is so offensive to you, why have you never said anything when your fellow left-wingnuts call rush fat. It’s kinda looking like you have two sets of rules, one for the democrats and one for everyone else. Pretty fucking pathetic on your part isn’t it.

I took a look at Lee Stranahan’s site. He had a bit on “unschooling,” that is, what he called home schooling.
I have a friend who home schooled his kids until the eight grade. When the oldest went on the public school and the ninth grade, the kid got straight A’s. Now he’s a CPA, and the other kids in the family have done well in their studies, too.
So, home schooling is not necessarily bad, particularly when it produces good results. I personally don’t have the talent or inclination to be a home educator, but if it works for someone else, then I have no problem with home schooling.

Roger Rabbit spews:
According to an AOL poll, 54% of AOL subscribers agree with Palin that President Obama’s health reform is “evil,” and well over half those responding to the poll have a “positive” impression of Palin.
I’ve long suspected these AOL polls are being hacked by rightwing operatives who use computer programs to stack the numbers. Given that AOL’s (ever-dwindling) subscriber base tends (or, at least, historically tended) to be better-educated, upper middle class professionals, these numbers simply aren’t believable.
Roger Rabbit spews:
AOL News carried an article this morning about Eunice Shriver Kennedy being in the hospital. This woman has never been a politician or held public office, and has devoted her life to good works like the Special Olympics, but you wouldn’t believe the vitriol being posted in the AOL comment thread under the news story by the rightwing haters. I swear to the Great Mother Rabbit Spirit we have a rampant epidemic of mental illness in this country. Or maybe all the wingers were bitten by bats and have rabies.

The Seattle Times has the Suzie story for all to read.
Reason she lost job? She was a lousy news anchor few people wanted to watch. Reason she sued? Sour grapes.
Marvin Stamn spews:
I completely understand you don’t understand the difference. Let me try once again to explain it to you.
I have the choice to not listen to rush, and the choice not to support his sponsors. I don’t listen to him. Rush has no power to enact any laws or regulations that I have to obey by threat of force by the government.
The new surgeon general has the power to change my life choices. I have no choice with her.
You only call people out of the other side of the isle.
Did you ever criticize teddy kennedy for his drinking problems? How patrick kennedy when he was caught under the influence of drugs when he crashed into the steps of congress? JFK for his “home tours of the stars” sex romps?
Why do you have more anger about rush the private citizen getting sex when john edwards not only had sex, was unable to figure out how to force his girlfriend into having an abortion was running for president. WHy don’t you hold democrats to the same standard as republicans.
I’m sure you were one of those that supported clinton and said it was only about sex and sex is a private matter. Yet now you have flipped-flopped talking about the private sex life of rush. Why do you change every single position you hold sacred when it comes to republicans? If you believe the democrats are that much better than republicans, shouldn’t you hold them to a higher standard?
That’s a question you can answer best with a few moments of honest self-reflection.
Marvin Stamn spews:
Probably the same kind of hate and vitriol that was spread about palin and her kid trig.
Why didn’t that offend you?
Oh yeah, you never claim to be fair. You admit you’re as partisan as one can be.

Sigh. Yet another dumbassery dump from Stamn. Let’s see what we got:
Uhhh.. Yeah right. Sure.. He just exhorts his zombie listeners to scream at Congress Critters trying to explain their positions to their constituents.. A real advocate for civil discourse that greedhead.
What she going to do? Recommend eating right, exercise, no smoking, moderate alchohol consumption, stress reduction and safe sex? Hell, Everett Koop recommended that. And you certainly have the “choice” to vote for idiot Congress Critters that will obviate anything she’ll do or say. The tobacco industry has done it for years.
Who was in charge the last eight years? More than that actually. You a big fan of how the last crowd ran things?
1) Teddy was never my Senator. I couldn’t vote yea or nay for him. Far as I know he never took money like Jefferson and served his State well – they kept sending him back. Some people can handle the bottle and some like Tower of Texas not so much which cost him the SecDef job. Again the people of MA kept sending Teddy back – your feckless right wing bullshit had no effect on them and yet you still believe repeating it here would bring you some comfort – as good a definition of insanity as I’ve seen.
2) Pat Kennedy? His constituents can recall him if they like. I don’t know anything about him beyond what right wing fools bloviate here and of course I take that with a shaker full of salt.
3) JFK – way before my time. The man is dead alright?
4) I supported Edwards. He screwed up big time. His career in politics is over.
There are Republicans in Congress right now OK? After 2006 they blocked the wind down of the war in Iraq after the American people had had it up to their foreheads with it. They stood to a man/woman behind Bush to block SCHIP, support Military tribunals for detainees, immunize Telecomm companies from violating our rights – down the line on the WRONG side of the issues. Yep, spineless Dems helped as well, but many Dems also voted correctly – can’t say that for hardly any Republicans.
To the best of my knowledge, Clinton has never gone to the Dominican Republican on a sex tour packing viagra. But even if he did I don’t recall him trying to buy votes or in Limpblow’s case radio ratings with any holier than thou rhetoric about traditional family values.
Limpblows is a hypocrite!!

Nobody said it was. The problem as I see it is setting a uniform standard for these independent settings. Unfortunately I’ve found that for every success story, like the one you described, there is another about a socially stunted failure.
Like you I think if it works go for it, but my concerns are while many people use it as an alternative for bad school systems far more others use it to shelter their children from the parts of reality they don’t like.
What sent this home for me was this: My mother makes educational games for dyslexic children (anyone curious you can see them here anyway one of the places she was displaying her wares was a home schooling convention. At the time I thought that would be the perfect market for her. But it turned out she hardly got any sales from it mainly because the average response she got was: “Oh I pray to Jayzus, there ain’t nothin’ wrong with my kid!”

I think Lee Stranahan, on his blog, was inferring that all home schooling was bad and inferior to public education. I don’t think that’s necessarily so, IMHO.

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read. Rush Limbaugh (and dozens if not hundreds of other highly public Republican lawmakers, media personalities, activists, and pundits) took it upon themselves to moralize, tut-tut, and often flat-out lie to condemn Bill Clinton’s affair. Calling them out on their on indiscretions is justly exposing their hypocrisy, which they asked for in spades. This is regardless of my or anyone else’s opinion of whether these indiscretions should result in some sort of official sanction, which affirmative response is the only event that would render your argument valid.
What do you call a straw man when it is not just misleading but completely and utterly irrelevant? Maybe “Marvin.”
I would definitely call out Bill Clinton on HIS hypocrisy if he attempted now to moralize about someone else’s sexual peccadilloes, but you know if you’ve paid attention that he hasn’t.

Except for my enjoyment of left-wingers insisting that sex was a private matter all of the sudden being interested in the sex life of rush, I could care less if clinton had sex with a consenting adult.
Call it what you like.
Just like you pointing out that reps have said one thing and done another, I’m pointing out that the dems did one thing (insist clinton/sex was a private matter) and now doing the opposite (being obsessed with rush/sex). Like the left-wingnuts said, moveon.org.

Wrong, it was the four-year, $40 million investigation (ginned up originally by Drudge and the Republican-owned media) that came up with exactly nothing that “got him in trouble.” And “lots of right-wingers had fun” telling us all how Clinton was morally bankrupt and had given up his moral right to hold office because of his affair. Not that they waitied for the affair to attack him, which began on January 20, 1993. And, of course, the president never said he never had sex with that woman.
Sex is a private matter. But hypocrisy is not, even if it’s Rush Limbaugh’s. It’s totally fair game. I don’t give a damn who Rush fucks, whether they are of age, or what drugs he has to use to make it possble, given his obesity. But I will point out his incredible hypocrisy, over and over, amen.
So, in conclusion, you pretending that something isn’t so doesn’t make it not so. Maybe Daddy DID leave, which led to the stunting of your emotional and intellectual understanding. It’s just a theory.
Daddy Love spews:

Ah, but we DO care. Which is why we supported our president and the Democratic Congress in 1993 raising the taxes that balanced the budget without a single Republican vote.
But take a look around. The last president left us with two hot wars and a global financial meltdown unequaled since the Great Depression. Consumer spending, the demand cornerstone of our economy, is in the toilet. The recession started in December 2007, for God’s sake. The government has to provide the spending that partially replaces consumer purchases until the economy recovers. We’ll fix things now, and balance the budget later.

Why do the pro-obama healthcare all have the same sign. Do they march that exactly in lockstep or were the signs made and trucked in for the protest.

I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.

if the Republicans win with “Just Say No To Fucking Everything” on health insurance reform, we’ll still have the present healthcare system. Meaning that we’ll have (1) flat-lining wages, (2) exploding Medicaid and Medicare costs and thus immense pressure for future tax increases, (3) small businesses and self-employed individuals priced out of the insurance market, and (4) a lot of uninsured or underinsured people imposing costs on hospitals and local governments.
Just what they want. Except for the part about Medicare and Medicaid, because aprently they cannot uncderstand what those are.
Daddy Love spews:
Makes you wonder, though, ot only why conservatives are opoposed to insurance reform, but also why they are so angry about it. Part of the anger is because of liars like MS and Cyn telling them patent untruths that they are too ignorant and too dependent on the teat of Faux News to evaluate independently.
But some of Jum DeMint’s constituents are one serious illness away from bankruptcy that republican suport for the so-called “bankruptcy bill” made nearly impossible. Some of Michelle Bachmann’s voters can’t get coverage because of a pre-existing condition. Some Susan Hutchison supporters will see their insurance companies drop them when they need their coverage most. Many of Sarah Palin’s fans already enjoy the benefits of government-run health care (hell, MOST of the people I see protesting in pics are over 65). A bunch of the same people who attended tea parties in April saw the insurance for themselves and their families disappear after they lost their job.
Everyone is getting screwed by the status quo. A huge chunk of the country is uninsured, underinsured, or uninsurable, and the system does not care how you voted in the last election.
But what it the Republican solution? “Tort reform.” It’s nuts. Suppose you’re a 52 year-old with a pre-existing medical condition who kinda wants to leave his job and start a new company. Under the current system in the United States, you have a serious problem. Republican proposals (if we can even dignify them with that name) do nothing for you. Or suppose you had good insurance, got sick, and are now suffering from “rescission” (you know, cancellation) of your policy. They’ve got nothing.
Bottom line: in GOP-land we’ll “solve” the problem of cost largely by having people not get the health care. The RNC is the “death panel.”
Roger Rabbit spews:
@27 “Since you’re an retired government employee, how’s that free government healthcare working out for you?”
What free government healthcare? I pay over $900 a month for health insurance. State retirees don’t get free anything. Our pensions came out of our paychecks; we pay for our health insurance; there isn’t a fucking dime of taxpayer subsidy anywhere. The only people who get taxpayer subsidies from the state are corporate blackmailers like Boeing. The lowly worker bees sure as hell don’t!
Is there anything you stupid wingnuts aren’t misinformed about?
Marvin Stamn spews:
In #59 I believe the point I was making was the hypocrisy of the left.
That during the bush years hitler/nazi references were acceptable, now with a democrat in the white house they feel it hits a little too close to home and want the same name calling stopped.
That during the bush years the left believed in “dissent is patriotic” yet once a democrat is in the white house dissent becomes reportable.

Mr. Cynical spews:

These KLOWNS are in denial. And this poll only includes a day or so from the Leftist plan to call the minority “Nazi’s”! These KLOWNS may know how to win elections in the new millenium…but they don’t know how to retain power.
The same Rasmussen Poll had Obama at +32 post-inauguration. He is now at -8. But according to the KLOWNS, America is strongly ehind him…NOT!
