Addendum for sake of clarity.
Posted By: More links to HJC hearings on 2008-08-19
In Reply to: Uh...you might want to check your sources on that one. - Impeachment hearings ongoing since 07/25/2008
For the sake of clarity, the hearings on the The Imperial Presidency of GW Bush and Possible Legal Response are being conducted in the House Judiciary Committee, not the House of Representatives since, like the energy bill, Pelosi's position is one of "impeachment is off the table." Just how long she can keep it off the table is anybody's guess. John Conyers is skeptical by nature and, in the past, has been lukewarm and uncommitted one way or the other on impeachment. Evidently he has changed his mind when confronted with evidence he could no longer ignore. This was discussed by him during his interview on Democracy Now! in one of those programs back in June. Though he was not willing to comment on "an ongoing investigation," he did make it quite clear that he will exhaust all avenues in "getting to the bottom" of the issues that are being raised in this HDC process and take appropriate action.

No one uses "peahen", so I insist on the "Mr." for sake of clarity.

ROFL....
Addendum to above
What I failed to mention and is an important part of the whole scenario is that in Holland, it is a personal choice. Doctors can euthanize newborns without even asking the parents. Caretakers of elderly or disabled can have a physician euthanize if they all feel that person is suffering or does not have a good quality of life. They have made it a personal decision and asked that the government stay out of it. They have already fallen off that slippery slope. I do not want to see my country fall down the same moral abyss.
Addendum
Obama visited troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. The visit to the military hospital in Germany was cancelled after the Pentagon raised concerns over political activity on that base. He also has visited troops many times at Walter Reed when stateside. McCain did not hesitate to use the soldiers for political gain, which is exactly what Obama was trying to avoid.
Ultimately, it seems removing the troops from Iraq ASAP shows much more concern for them and their families than sending them there in the first place, especially considering Bush’s lies and the hidden agendas. Some documented body count figures might help show just how concerned Bush has been over these past 5 years. Since these are only the documented cases, the actual numbers are much higher.
US 4134 killed 30,324 wounded
US coalition allies 314 NA
Iraqi military 8514 NA
Iraqi civilian count 86,457 to 94,330, depending on who you ask.
A whopping total of between 99,419 to 107,292 fatalities. Bush and Cheney and only Bush and Cheney bear this responsibility. Hard to say whether those tears Bush shed were for the families or the cameras.
Clinton went into Somalia and Kosovo as part of a UN coalition for peacekeeping purposes in countries where genocide was well documented. No lies here either. No need to conjure up a war. In this case, Clinton was a joiner, not an instigator. Demonization has nothing to do with party affiliation. It has to do with the individual’s character, or lack thereof.
Addendum to above post...
a family of 4 making $80K a year can afford to insure their children. SORRYYY. Tooo tired..longgg day. LOL.
Addendum to cutoff.

addendum to just a thought
when I posted 'i don't trust him', he is scary, etc - I was responding to what I have been reading here and elsewhere when people talk about Obama and the underying insinuations speak volumes IMO.
Just another addendum to the long list of
In the comedy arena, they should have let McC carry his own distinction which we witnessed at the charity roast. Red camp overplays their hand once again. Big surprise.

oh for pete's sake
The far right is reading something sinister into this. Even your link acknowledges that Obama voted against this bill with an intentionally inflammatory name because of technical wording that would infringe upon Roe v. Wade but wasn't opposed to the federal version with different wording. He's not in favor of leaving babies to die. For pete's sake, no one is. These kinds of bills are thrown around all the time by both sides just so they can use it as ammo against the other side later, things like Women's Human Rights bill and Anti-baby Mutilation Act, so when the other sides votes for or against their opponent can say, "you voted against women's human rights," or "you voted in favor of baby mutilation."
I hope for your sake
your brother or son are never on the wrong side of a divorce case that involves a politician. To reach down from the Governor's office into a matter belonging to the trooper's direct superiors is nothing but abuse of power and vindictiveness. That should scare the blue right off your hair.
Oh for heaven's SAKE
Hitler? Marx? You don't know what you are talking about, & bringing your religion into it gives your religion less credibility, doesn't give you more.

Get a life, for God's sake!

For heaven's sake
What's next, that pie he was eating looked exactly like Elvis? Good grief.
Oh for Pete's sake, it won't work.
It will go underground. Like it or not, it is tied now to big business. You quoted it. This will not induce responsibility. You stand by your beliefs because you feel it just and it makes you feel good without much thought about the ramifications, the immediate and the future.
It is this kind of behavior that drives me nuts. This is the same behavior of why we as the United States are looked upon with such scorn pretty much around the world because we keep pushing our beliefs on others because we feel it just and it makes us feel good without much thought or regard to the people and the possible outcome. Not to mention, it tends to prey on the weak.
I think the method of abortion is what gets you all riled up. Would it make you feel better if abortions were all done chemically? Probably wouldn't be near as adamant about it, the vividity of it is what gets your attention. Too bad the site of bloodied, mangled, bodies of men, women, and children of those who die during war doesn't ignite the same fire in your heart.
George Carlin said this back in the 70s and it always stuck in my head. "Religion is like a lift in your shoe, just don't nail lifts to the natives feet".
Oh for Pete's sake. Why should this be an issue? sm
The one that springs to mind is John Edwards $400 haircuts.
I mean, really. Of course they want her to look good while she's on the campaign trail.
Why don't you ask who pays for Obama's , or Michelle Obama's wives wardrobe? Oh wait, maybe those were paid for by the gazillions of dollars he gets donated by anonymous donors overseas....or wherever.
This is really a nonissue for most people. You all are just trying to rile things up.
For goodness' sake, where did critical thinking go?
It's an editorialized article that includes many statements and facts meant for the reader to consider. It's not something intended to be only true or not true. You're supposed to THINK about it and measure it against what you know and come to your own opinion about it, and if it jars you, check out the facts for accuracy yourself. What has happened to the right's ability to think soundly?
For heaven's sake, READ THE ARTICLE.
the part about charges dropped WITHOUT PREJUDICE. It means that the charges can be brought against him again AFTER the review has concluded and the new policies are in place. Also, pay especialy close attention to the part where it says that Abd Al-Rahim will REMAIN IN CUSTODY. Does that sound like a free pass?
Oh, for pete's sake, stop with the Palin bashing... sm
We know that you hate her. Big surprise.
The more you bash McCain/Palin, the better they look.
Makes Obama look bad, the way his supporters trash her continually.
Get the facts - not fear - and for pete's sake stop being so nauseating
you probably don't know who I'm addressing it to and I want to keep it that way.
It's good you support your candidate, but this rhetoric back and forth, mine is more experienced than your, you'll be crying all the way to the polls while I'm laughing, blah, blah, blah.
Truth is we don't know who will win. One thing I'm seeing is most don't like any choice, but you hate one so much that you belittle the other side to prop yours up.
Also I'm not seeing anyone do any research. It's just mine has more experience than yours but no facts to back it up. Again - yada yada yada.
To me none of them are overly qualified. Some I can't stand, but I don't have that "I love this candidate or that candidate".
I just say stop belittling others until you can come up with hard facts as to why one is more qualified than the other. (well even then don't belittle others - just state the facts).
For Pete's sake, I agree. Let me say, CARE PACKAGES ARE A GREAT THING TO DO!
Let's all send care packages. I will check out the web site you provided and if it's legit my heart and pocketbook will lead me. Trust me, to your surprise I'm not a stingy old witch sitting here not willing to give a dime to the troops but yet preach about how much I love them. Don't believe that, well then it only rains under your cloud.
Where the disconnect is, is that you think that people are not allowed to be against this war, against this administration, and still be for the troops. When you come here and tell us what the troops are asking for in the form of care packages, it ticks me off even more with this administration for putting them in this situation, but you have reminded me that they are with needs and wishes and for their sacrifice we all should give to them.
In discussing this, our conversation can not be limited to care packages. Let me applaud you in all sincerity for being proactive and on top of sending the packages you have put together. I know you will make someone in Iraq's day brighter, a big hats off to you! I just happen to think they shouldn't be in this predicament anyway and on that we may never see eye to eye and that's fine.
