So Obama accepts some more republican suggestions, but the republicans are still staying away from the package because they want the big win. Their win is Obama's demise.

Lets see. Obama adds 30 pages of Republican ideas to a 2000 plus page bill. Yeah, don't think thats going to make…

No, but then, unlike many so called Republicans, I'm actually a conservative. I was against NCLB when Bush proposed it. When Orrin Hatch partnered up with Teddy Kennedy, I knew something stank to high heaven. Back in the day, I was between the loons and the Republicans, who blinded themselves…

By the way, looting is the wrong word to use. It refers the spoils of war, not to surviving after an earthquake. If some people take advantage of the quake to profit, that is called taking advantage of the situation.

Whether its during the chaos caused by riots, floods, fire,…

Even the hardcore conservatives now are saying that the program was a huge waste.

Give us some credit Zurc. Most conservatives said it was a waste the day it was passed. I should point out, that it was passed with broad bi-partisan support. However only a very few conservatives supported…

All this points to that many Americans need MORE government control, not less. You seem to support a hands-off government. Sorry, that will only make the current situation worse.

And printing more money to throw at the problem will solve it. I don't think so. Less government is almost always…

In my opinion, it must be that many are rendered in speechless wonder by the demonstration by right-wingers of how little they understand about anything.

Way to spin Yabits, Way to spin! If Obama tells a blatant lie, you are the type to find an excuse. Conveniently set aside the…

Has Obama made any changes to the Patriot Act as it was written when he took office? I really don't know the answer to that question. Maybe someone here will.

The answer is no. He has made no changes since he took office. Only thing he has done, has been…

Scientists deal with Knowledge. Deniers argue from Ignorance.

And Hysterics pad their numbers, and ignore or make up data when they don't get the results they want, and quite frankly lie to everyone in order to get more funding to continue their "research". So, are you a denier, or a…

After the economic wreckage Obama inherited from the conservative-backed GOP, I'm half surprised he hasn't already quit his job. But he's got more guts than that, and way more legs to stand on than the conservatives, who are the last people who should be slagging off the president. That said,…

The claim that Obama "campaigned on repealing the Patriot Act" is an outright and unsupportable falsehood. On such preposterously ignorant claims do the loony right-wingers build their strawmen.

What was it you said... Ah yes. I am not here to get between the hopelessly deluded and their delusions, nor the…
