4. Democrats are so lame.
Did you see the You Tube replays of how Ron Paul's supporters chased Sean Hannity about for days. It was a mob scene. He got his morning jog, escaping from the Ron Paul supporters. Its rare that Fox news gets such harassment. And not from Democrats either. And where are we. I'd love to be able to interrupt Brian Williams while having his breakfast .

36 'Democratic' Senators Vote For Credit Card/Banking Industry's Bankruptcy 'Reform'
...and they wonder why so many Democrats voted for Ralph Nader.


GW Bush and the credit card/banking industry won a huge victory last night as 36 'Democrats' joined their Republican 'colleagues' and voted to pass S-420 - the Bankruptcy bill.


I've never seen a bill that was so one-sided. The cries, claims and concerns of vulnerable Americans who have suffered a financial emergency have been drowned out by the political might of the credit card industry.


former Dem. Senator Howard M. Metzenbaum now head of Consumer Federation of America
Consumer groups and unions have been aggressive in opposing it, contending that the changes in bankruptcy law will take away an important means of relief for families hit by job losses. Former President Clinton vetoed last year's similar version, saying it would hurt ordinary people and working families.

"This is the most anticonsumer piece of legislation that the Congress is considering," said Edmund Mierzwinski, consumer program director for the U.S. Public Interest Research Group in Washington, D.C.

"Among Senate Democrats who may vote for the bankruptcy bill are Minority Leader Thomas A. Daschle (D-S.D.), whose state is home to a Citigroup Inc. credit card operation in Sioux Falls that employs several thousand people. Daschle has received $45,000 in political contributions from Citigroup in the last six years." -- Washington Post 3/11/01

The Associated Press is calling it a big win for Bush and "the second business-friendly measure to pass both houses of the new Congress".

And they wonder why Ralph Nader got so many Democratic votes?

10. Fat chance.
You'd find a greater sense of fairness among starving hogs.

14. Whoever does would get some good P.R. out of it.
Although, I am not saying that NBC would allow it.

But it would be nice for one of them to say something about it, maybe go so far as to say how unfair it is.

A real leader would.

6. Wow, that would be awesome
But what I would REALLY like would be if John Edwards talked about it.

I've read some opinions tonight that JE wanted Kooch out, so they don't expect him to bring it up.

Disappointment if that's the case.

Oh and.....FUCK NBC for doing what they're doing

12. That's what I expect they'd do to him also
I'm not sure he'd be interested in putting himself in that position. It would just give more leverage to those who wish to end his political career.

11. Me, TOO!
I hope that Edwards will interject the fact that DK has been ABUSED by this corporate cartel. Another example of how corporate powers are ruling our lives!

However, I'm NOT holding my breath!:eyes:

15. According to New York Times coverage...
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 08:50 PM by ColbertWatcher
"...NBC had argued that it had a right, as a privately owned network, to determine whom to invite to the debate."

(Emphasis added)http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/01/15/nbc-wins-battle-over-debate/index.html?hp">New York Times


And yet the airwaves belong to the public. The networks are licensed to them under certain restrictions.

I guess corporations can define their own limitations.

Bastards.
