What a magnificent day

Watching those wonderful democrats today take over the majority in the congress, for the first time in twelve years, gives hope that the people now have control of the government, not evil-doers and warmongers.
One could just see in their eyes and actions the sincerity of purpose that we are to experience. I certainly plan to vote democratic in two years and complete the job of taking back our country from a group of selfish, destructive, and ignorant know-it-all liars.
In just twelve short years we have managed to practically destroy our national prominence; our trust in political officials, and corporations, and our military and their families, now making a draft necessary in order to defend ourselves from numerous atomic powers, created recently, along with our crazy alienation of a large religious segment of the earth's population.
Just think, even before all of the neocons are booted we will have passed ethics laws, made it easier for everyone to attend college, raised the puny minimum wage, stopped large and small companies from hiring illegals---giving us a chance to either sanction or deport 15 million here now. Women will be able to mind their own reproductive business without interference from the government,
and best of all, blow-hard self righteous religous nuts from governmental influence. Everyone then can begin to eliminate the Limbaughs, the Hannities, the O'Reillys, and the blonde bombshells, and all of the other "entertaining," overpaid dopes from the air.
I can hardly contain myself! The US of A is back.

You make me laugh my friend. Here's to the new boss, same as the old boss is more like it.

The new majority is ramming things down the throat of the minority. Nancy forgot how she whined and sniveled about minority rights. Typical liberal do as I say, not as I do.

Let's look at your rant a little closer:

"made it easier for everyone to attend college" Great goal, where in the CONSTITUTION is that function of government stated.

"raised the puny minimum wage" If you believe in freedom, what gives the government the right to set market labor rates, that power of government is missing in my copy of the Constitution. People that earn minimum wage are LOSERS. Now they will be slightly higher paid LOSERS. Oh and you will be paying slightly higher prices where they work to pay for thier raise!

"stopped large and small companies from hiring illegals" We already have those laws on the books, what is needed is a National ID card, or a way for employers to verify name/SSN match.

"giving us a chance to either sanction or deport 15 million here now." Do you rally think the Democrats will deport 15 million voters?

"Women will be able to mind their own reproductive business without interference from the government," they hve been free to kill their unborn fetuses for the last 12 years with no move to overturn Rowe V. wade. Again that right to an abortion was not in my Constitution. The founding fathers must have missed that inallienable right.

"Everyone then can begin to eliminate the Limbaughs, the Hannities, the O'Reillys, and the blonde bombshells, and all of the other "entertaining," overpaid dopes from the air." Sounds like sensordship to me, what do you have against free speech.

Me, i'm going to sit back and watch the "most ethical congress ever". Put up or shut up time.

Why are you against students getting lower loan interest?
As to where in constitution every law we have is found--well, as an example, your pension isn't there is it?
Minimum wage is the taking advantage of: kids, poor women, retarded, students, food preparation, and starting retail employees. Competition doesn't solve every problem. Ask Halliburton.
Abortion rights not in constitution: neither is whether or not I am left-handed, whether or not I want a sex change, VA hospitals, and no end to other rights.
If you want to continue to support those radio jack-asses and TV neocons, then by all means do so. Makes it easier for the other side next time.
As to congressional ethics, there aren't many. Just the amount of dollars each occurence: big crooks tend to go after personal millions instead of spreading millions around.
By the way, I don't have a side. Too much wrong with both sides.

Do you actually vote? Do you have a job or somethin'? Maybe being on welfare would explain your idiotic comments - how about that? Are you on the dole? Do you know what that means?

I think you should turn in your TV and get a job - maybe McDonald's start slow - don't get a hernia or anything.

And no, please do not get a sex change, I suspect you are one of us and I don't want you to be one of them.

BWD - bloggin while drinking and
LTTR - listening to talk radio
Both will become a crime under Nancy P.
Wean yourself now before it is too late.

As far as I'm concerned, LTTR should be illegal. Better yet, TOTR, (Talking on Talk Radio) should be illegal.

I have yet to figure out why people need to be told "how they should think" and "what they should find offensive" by someone else.

Can't people think for themselves anymore?

I find it amazing how people make a living doing this.

Makes me think that Ted Turner, "The weak need to be led", had it right.

You said both should be "Illegal" Are you serious? Why?

Free speech is a pretty basic part of our culture, don't you think?

Talk radio is all about free speech, isn't it?

Maybe you have a problem with the content instead of the process. Please explain.

The main issue I have with either LTTR and/or TOTR is that nothing they say is the real, unbiased or the unabridged truth.

They babble for the benefit of their sponsors not the listeners.

Case in point: Hannity Won't Admit He Was Wrong About Terri Schiavo

News Hounds, "We watch FOX so you don't have to."

"Rush" the self proclaimed God of news going on about Mickel J. Fox

Rush may know a thing or two about Dr's. and perscriptions but I hardly think he's anywhere near qualified to discuss the dibilitating effects of Parkinsons desise.

The crap they spew hangs right in there with Pat Robertson and Jimmy Swaggart.

My problem is that I can't deside if Jimmy and Pat should be on before, during or after some type of "Pro Wrestling" show to lend creedacnce to what they have to say.

What really scares me is that there are people out there that truly beleave what these baffons are saying is accurate and/or true.

If people can be led that easily/nievely then I need to start my own church and make some money off of these fools like the good Reverend $.

Did you know that when $ does a "show" he brings his own ATM's because "Jeasus only takes cash"? I know this because a friend of mine used to fly the cargo plane that carried them.

Understand you object to what is being said on talk radio as opposed to their right to say it. That is at least honest and I hope that same honesty surfaces when the Dem's in Congress try to stifle talk radio for the same reason.

I understand completely how Limbaugh and Hannity and others may offend you. I am not particularly offended by them, but I am horribly offended by TV preachers, Entertainment Tonight, CNN (especially Lou Dobbs), all reality shows, Katie Coric, all AM shows, etc. My solution is in my own hand with one of the several buttons on my remote control - mute and off being my favorites.

Targeting conservative talk radio (I assume you'd be ok leaving liberal talk radio alone) or any other media outlet is the first step to huge oppressive government - as if it is not big enough already.

To my knowledge there is no liberal "talk radio." All the "entertainers" are actors who happen to be republican.
Limbaugh must have ran out of oxicontin pills the day he criticized Michael Fox. Hannity has never gotten over the paint fumes he inhaled when he was a house painter.
You are correct about the others you mention except Lou Dobbs. The only thoughtful, honest talker on TV.
The thing for you to do is to continue to support such false, low moral people if you wish the executive branch, and the congress to be nearly 100% democratic soon.

I'm referring to all forms of propaganda. Conservative, liberal, left, right, black, white and green glow-in-the-dark, it makes no difference to me.

These people and others are flat out lying to the public.

Maybe they should be held to the same standards as advertising.

When they make false claims that are clearly intended to harm/defame someone, not to provide accurate information, they can get fined by the FCC.

In other words, they should get their facts straight before they speak.

I also use the power of the remote.

I decided long ago that the radio is only good for traffic and occasional weather reporting. CD's and the iPod have long since replaced the need for a radio in my book.

It's the people who get there information form just one source and believe everything they hear are the ones that really scare me.

I just can't fathom that there are people who really give a damn about what "The Donald" and the "fat lady" have to say about one another.

What you ask has nothing to do with anything. Yes, I vote, have for many years---both parties at one time or another.
Never have gotten a dime of welfare or any other kind of unearned funds.
Don't you watch TV? Fox maybe? I like old movies.
About the only thing Pelosi can do about the stupid war is find out where the trillion dollars, so far, has gone--it is not in the budget. That is $1,000,000,000,000. Oil didn't seem to pay for the war!!!!!!!!! Die-hards just don't seem to understand how bad our situation is. Caused by poor planning and hard-headiness.

Sounds like a lot of whacko fun. Where do we start DollarD? Public Hangings? Firing Squads? Ooooh, ooooh...how about a gas chamber. Or better yet how about you we turn them over to the Iranians for a little beheading fun.

Enigma and My Word Mark..... would you do something with this guy. He claims to be from your side.

OK people.....as you can tell the next two years should be verrrryyy interesting. Smiling

Just get them out of politics--that will kill them.
Our bombs have killed about 100,000, mostly innocent, Iraqis---maybe if we could gather the blow hards into one place we could drop some tonnage there? Bombs do more damage than beheading but it doesn't make us sick like a knife does. We are more civilized than to use a knife! Did you like the big hanging rope?
Do you know if we plan to bomb again when we send in the additional "surge," of troops, or will we go door to door and shoot everyone inside? When they move out of Baghdad to say Fallugah, will we send another "surge there?"

Both parties are very much in favor of controlling too many aspects of our lives and taking away too much of our hard earned money.

Your milage may vary.
