I would rather police focus on serious crime. Its good to see Chicago take this step.

Its just amazing to me this is happening. Libyan citizens had a really good society with free education, healthcare, and good treatment of the people. They had the highest standard of living on their continent.

Congrats!

I've already gone and voted straight republican ticket. It really does matter and it is so important! Don't just leave it up to others because that will be Obama Dems.

We are now going to have higher co-pays and lower maximum benefit. I'm voting TEA Party so hopefully we can fix this. Why does every concession have to come from those that work? Tue, 19 Oct 2010 13:50:33 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9IUFNLG2&show_article=1#IDComment104783904 http://biggovernment.com/capitolconfidential/2010/09/15/shock-audio-facing-obligations-from-leadership-democrat-house-member-puts-the-squeeze-on-lobbyist/#IDComment99153955 This is unethical to say the least. Eleanor Holmes Norton first thought of raising funds is to call a lobbyist. If she knew she was doing a good job and wanted to further the democrat agenda she should have asked for funds from people in her district. This is a picture perfect case that explains why America is mad. The democrats will likely just overlook this violation of ethics rules and her district will just keep re-electing her. This is exactly why I think we may end up in a revolution. If she keeps getting lobbyist funds to stay in office then how can we fix our country when corrupt politicians like this are in office?

I do not mean to say that to freak people out but my intention is to ask that they get serious. We can no longer have the bickering politicians doing irresponsible deeds. Our country is at a point that we could crash. Right now we need real leadership to own fixing this mess. A real leader would be transparent about what the problems are and explain the hard choices he will have to make to address them. This is exactly what I want. It scares me that "we the people" are too dumb to get it and insist our leaders address those issues.

Our situation is dire and we need a dynamic and experienced leader to get us back on track. There is no one in either party right now that I believe can do the job. It will take someone who is supported by the people to go do the hard thing. I think we all know that hard thing will be to cut budgets and make our country fiscally responsible again. The bickering has to stop so we can work together to fix our country before it does turn into a third world country.

Since I pay attention and read I can clearly see the resulting crisis. I really wish we had a genuine leader step up and take charge. Even if that leader is not formally in government but has enough sway with the citizens we could force our leaders to fix the situation. If that fails, I am ready to do so forcefully. I've had it with irresponsible and unaccountable government.

That is a person that works for a living. Pete Stark just seems to be a leech. The freakin idiots in California that elected him need thier heads examined. On second thought maybe we should do a sociology experiment and find out what is going on there that they care so little for their country.

I have a sense that those wanting everything to be free and cared for cradle to grave have never had skin in the game. Once you have had to work for it then you know what we mean.

Seriously, this should be the headline news until it is addressed. Imagine that murky mess sitting at the bottom of the Gulf killing everything in its wake. There must be a dead zone of hundreds of miles. This will catch up with us someday soon. Wed, 21 Jul 2010 13:12:48 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9H324OG1&show_article=1#IDComment87863420 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87596809 If Obama gets his way the Mexicans will be prioritized over the black people. I have often wondered if the black folks even consider that. I also think that if Obama cannot see his way to move his grandmother out of the straw hut to better accomodations if he would even lift a finger for black people. Has he done anything at all for them since he has been in office? Tue, 20 Jul 2010 02:02:08 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87596809 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87588834 I was thinking the same thing. Something is wrong with her story. A poor farmer about to lose his farm is not going to insult the very person that he is asking help from. If he did then that is unacceptable but it still does not give her the right to seletively help only black folks. I know many black people and the thing is none of them behave like her. Tue, 20 Jul 2010 01:22:53 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87588834 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87588047 Anexio, You might well be an unintentional racist yourself. If you cannot recognize it then I bet you do not even know when you are doing it. Because Ms. Sherrod is clearly racist she may have been reading in racism listening to the farmer. Do you really think a poor farmer seeking any help he could get would be putting her down or treating her rudely. I seriously doubt it. If he did though, that is unacceptable. In any case she should have taken a different approach than sending him away.

He showed this exact same video. Bill wants her to resign and he is asking for an answer from the Agriculture Secretary.

Tue, 20 Jul 2010 00:47:57 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87584753 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87584574 Um, that she was the speaker makes it just that much worse. Generally those that are speakers are the ones we look up to and take guidance from. Even if everyone else in the room was not racist, she might well have influenced some to think differently from her experience and story. Tue, 20 Jul 2010 00:46:09 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87584574 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87583720 After seeing this I am fuming angry. In my profession I help blacks, whites, and every other color of skin. I am white and it has never, ever, crossed my mind to selectively help people based on their color. If anything I over compensate to make sure I am doing the right thing by all people. After seeing this I am really sympathetic for the poor white farmer that she selectivley chose not to help. It really seems that the NAACP finds ways to instigate racism in order to justify their own existence. Its the NAACP that is racist. It just sickens me. Ms. Sherrod, you should be disppointed in yourself. Tue, 20 Jul 2010 00:38:14 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/video-proof-the-naacp-awards-racism/#IDComment87583720
