The long and short of it is that conservatives developed a sense of entitlement over the last year that is beyond stupid, and has reached a level of dangerous.

They lost Congress in 2006 and the presidency in 2008 and they are going to throw a collective temper tantrum until…

"If McCain would have won...blah, blah, blah."

He didn't.

"If conservatives wanted to speak directly to school children....blah, blah, blah."

They don't. They want to stop the president from speaking. (Come to think of it, they didn't even ask to have time equal time for a rebuttal or to to…

Blue Tiger,

There was outrage. It was just limited to the free speech zones, so you probably didn't hear it unless you were near to the cordoned off areas in which one could practice free speech without being arrested for what was on your t-shirt.

Hope that helps.

Tigermoth,

I DO favor higher taxes to go toward education and agree with you on its importance. I also favor things like increasing the fines given out to corporations that throw the moral compass out the window to further raise funds for education programs. Companies like halliburton and kbr who…

Gosh, why do you think Pres. Obama would care if halliburton is "hatin" on him. Their company is responsible for the wiring that got 18 Soldiers killed. They were fined for serving out troops in Iraq contaminated water.
Isn't killing American Soldiers and poisoning American Soldiers an act of war?…

Ted Kennedy was crucial to crafting the bill.

Indeed he was. You leave out the important fact that it was no where near funded to the degree Kennedy had asked for. But, you wouldn't be you if you didn't leave the important parts out.

Anyhoo... Many of you in Japan…

A surge in troops is also going to create in support services, which is what halliburton (poorly) supplied.

The draw down, combined with them serving the troops contaminated water and getting several electrocuted in the shower due to their shoddy workmanship has lead to halliburton being fined hundreds of millions…

GJDailleult,

beezlebub could also have added that each mercenary, sorry "contractor", is paid a salary far higher than that of US military personnel, and that they are usually ex-US military, meaning the US taxpayer has paid for their training. Great value for the money!!!!

Not necessarily. When you factor in…

USARonin,

I'm very aware of the difference between literal and figurative. I do think that mr. rommell was joking but, much like pedophilia and sex slavery, I don't find the subject of shooting the president, regardless of who he is (have to put that disclaimer in these days), to be…
