is a little like comparing a bass (Bush) to a great white shark (Iranian president). 

to political blackmail -- Obama did the right thing.  He believes his time is better spent letting the entire bleppin' congress work the on the issue and then vote when they come up with a plan.  McCain is just making another grandstand attempt that has fallen embarrassingly flat.

in secret.  It's never caused such a problem before.  I'm not trying to slam Bush, but look at all the stuff we're finding out about his administration (i.e. torture memos, etc).  And to top that off, Bush was the one who initially stopped access to the guest list to the WH.  When Bush did it the news covered it, but there wasn't a wide spread panic about it....so what's the big deal about Obama doing it? 

I'm not saying that I agree with blocking the lists, because I don't, but the point is that both Bush and Obama have done it, so why the panic about just one of them?  My guess is that right wing media is pushing the issue and using it as a talking point; basically making the media being the ones who are instilling fear, not Obama.

who provides campaign funds.  Do you know why lobbyists are making the headlines?  Because they are bribing the politicians of both parties - lobbyists work for private interests (AIPAC) along with the pharmaceutical company ($280.00 for a bottle of pills?  Only in America, folks), oil industry (record profits at your expense) credit card companies and unethical banking procedures (Funny isn't it how Visa wrote the reformed BK bill, making virtually everyone end up in ch 13 (garnishing income, including SS) after raising credit limits and offering transfer balances at 0 percent to everyone with a last name and a roof over their head?  Along with mtgs that were bound to turn into bad loans when house prices dropped which they always do after a bubble.  God, I could go on and on here but I get tired.  The nation is in such trouble.  Serious serious trouble.  There is a huge loan to an unfriendly country (did you watch the Olympics?  did you ever see Bush look more uncomfortable other than during the Stephen Colbert roast during the national press conference.  lol.  

Well I want you to know what fascism.  And I want you to know that those treasury notes are backed up by the taxpayers (you) and real estate including roads and govt buildings and parks.  Have you noticed why Save-Mart Center is owned by savemart and not a community business or the community itself?  There is somethign happening slowly and surely and it is NOT going to benefit middle class america one iota.  You must know that as a poor person, you have no power, no voice.  Elections are rigged and the politicans cease to care whether you like them or not - oh wait, that has already happened. 

THINK ABOUT THIS!!!!  Your 401Ks and investments/assets are what at are stake! 

Fascist governments nationalized key industries and made massive state investments. They also introduced price controls, wage controls and other types of Soviet-style economic planning measures.^[12] Property rights and private initiative were contingent upon service to the state.^[13].^[14] Fascists promoted their ideology as a "third way" between capitalism and Marxian socialism.^[15] Fascists in Germany and Italy claimed that they opposed reactionaries, and that they were actually revolutionary political movements that fused with conservative social values.

Wasn't referring to WMD, as stated in my post.

Saddam had gotten rid of the WMDs, said his son-in-law, quite a few years earlier.  If your theory of invading a country that no longer is a threat, then would you also advise invading Germany since they used to have a Nazi regime?

I just mean in terms of the baby being passed around.  That's what people do with babies.  They share the love. 

Doncha have any babies in your family?

Biden answered each and every question very completely and very eloquently.  They were more like accusations than questions, and the whole thing resembled an ambush more than an interview.  Please WATCH THE VIDEO OF THIS INTERVIEW (link below) and tell me just which question Biden DIDN'T answer.

I wouldn't waste my time being interviewed by this woman, either.

The Financial Services Modernization Act (which really started it all).

Funny, I don't see a whole lot of "nays" beside the R's in the list.
