  • I just registered because I love the level of comments that this site provokes. I look forward to contributing when anything piques my interest.

  • Is it a stacked deck?
    Best Hand in POKER = 4 race cards beats a royal flush. If you're white & express your opinion you're a racist.. If you're a person of color w/ an unpopular black opinion, you're an uncle tom. Makes the race card quite the popular play these daze. Guess we all need to play 21, I'd say blackjack but then I'd probably get the dreaded a racist/uncle tom card. Woe is my black a$$!

  • Can we take a media poll? Which of the television "news media outlets" will be the first to fall off the CramaJamaBamaShama Show?
    ABC
    CBS
    NBC / MSNBC
    CNN

    • CNN will most likely be the only one. Namely because they have "racist" Lou on. Even though he married a hispanic woman, it's not enough for critics. He's against ILLEGAL immigration Olbermann, He's not anti-Hispanic (obviously), and not against LEGAL immigration. 34 million on food stamps, 40 million people here working illegally. Kick them out and put the food stamp people to work, and we'll have a damn 6 million job surplus!!!!!

      NYT has had some negative pieces, so anything can happen. But with the doctoring and editing of videos, MSNBC/NBC seems to move father to the left.

      • I wish Fox News would grab Lou Dobbs, and swap out the bloviating, pompous O'Reilly.

        And while they are at it, move Glenn Beck into Hannity's spot.

  • Another clear example of the Obama administrations' failure to operate from a center of gravity is their "outrage" over the release of the Lockerbie bomber while they release the gitmo detainees with complete disregard for their crimes against America including 9/11 and tell Michigan, shut up and take one for the team.

    • Personally I think Ted Kennedy's longevity has had more to do with the pickleing effect that all the alcohol in his system has had than it does with our health care . . . but that's just me.

      • You may be right Kip - and it may have even slowed the growth of that nasty old tumor growing in his noggin! Bartender - shut that guy off, would ya?

        • Kennedy..> "Oh pretty please change the law for me: it benefits me now, & it didn't before when I opposed it. Remember Gov't is for the pleasure, benefit & convenience of CONGRESS, deficits & taxes are for Stupidly UnAmericans"
