I am so friggin sick of them all. Oh yeah, guess we should feel sorry for them. They have hundreds of thousands to millions and it isn't enough for them.
Talk about really getting the blood boiling. They care nothing about the people of the country and what we are going through and this shows it! They'll sit and spit in our faces and say, so what, what are you going to do about it. They really need to take the power away from them to vote themselves in their own pay raises.

One word: OUTRAGEOUS!!
xx
Im thinking those outrageous remarks
of pat Robertson about Sharon's stroke might just put a kink in this deal..
I agree it's outrageous that guy is still drawing breath
He should've been tried years ago, and if found guilty should have assumed ground temperature many years ago. However, it looks like four subsequent administrations share the blame for this not just the Bush administration, but yes, more should've been done especially by the Bush administration to be sure justice was served in this case..
Outrageous remarks made by Clinton
The DNC should dismiss H Clinton IMMEDIATELY due to her offensive and despicable comments about why she is staying in the race (the assasination of Bobby Kennedy - in other words the same could happen to Barack and so she should stay in in case that happens). I think it is a disgrace for her to continue in the race at this point. There is no doubt in my mind (and others I have talked with) that she wants something dreadful to happen to Barack, but to blatently come out and mention the assination of Bobby Kennedy when referring to Barack Obama is the lowest of all time lows. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE should call for her removal from the race. This is why we CANNOT have her as VP. If so Barack would have to constantly be looking over her shoulder. If nobody believes that they need to read the history of the Clintons and what they have done to people in the past. It's fact and people need to wake up! This is not some "right-winged" thing against her - it happened and you can read about it.
Then she tries to cover up her shameful statements with lies. The media is treating her too kindly by saying they are sure she didn't mean that she believes something would happen to him. I just want to scream - Don't you believe it. Look at the past! Yet once again another reason I'm not voting for her.
And what part of NO doesn't the Hillary supporters understand that she is NOT going to be VP on his ticket. NO NO NO NO NO!!!!! If, and I doubt that would happen, but if she was to be on the ticket I would not vote for him. I will write in Ron Paul.
She goes on and on about all the people she has that will vote for McCain and not Obama if she doesn't get on the ticket - yeah, well there are an equal number that if she is on the ticket will absolutely not vote for her and will either go for McCain or just not vote. I was watching the exit polls after the election on Tuesday and they said that its about a 50/50 split with Hillary supporters and Barack supporters saying they will not vote for the other.
There's no way in the world I want that XXXXX anywhere near the white house. I am just outraged that she made such a dispicable, appalling, shameful and vile statement. And I don't even want to hear any Hillary lovers try and defend this. If there is a meaning of evil she fits the description to a T. This just confirms she is XXXXX in my books.
Those prices are OUTRAGEOUS! Bad plan, Obama!
According to the table on the website you linked, in my state their insurance would cost nearly $800 a month! Holy KRAP, Batman! I pay a little over a quarter of that.
So Obama thinks some welfare family should get an $800/mo policy for free and I, because I can afford my own inrance, have to pay for lesser coverage.
This is a joke, right? He can't be serious.
And those rate tables were from 2004/5. Lord only knows what they are today.
This is what I wrote in my message below called outrageous
Their blatant glutton is so sickening I could just puke! Families losing their jobs, homes, 401K's, retirements. People are in such hard times right now, bailouts after bailouts after bailouts and congress (all pretty close to millionaires if not more) goes and just gives themselves a pay raise. I'm am so sick to death of the whole political scene.
Denounce Fox News Outrageous Rhetoric
Fox News Crosses the Line
Target: Fox News Sunday Host Chris Wallace
Sponsored by: Media Matters
For news coverage to be "fair and balanced," there has to be a line separating news from political activism – a clear boundary between legitimate commentary and demagoguery.
Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace repeatedly characterizes his network as "fair and balanced" – a source of news that should be taken seriously. However, several recent actions on Fox News illustrate that the network is contributing to a culture of conservative paranoia and anti-Obama political activism.
For example, since launching his Fox News show, Glenn Beck has engaged in increasingly outrageous rhetoric that promotes a culture of conservative paranoia – from imitating President Obama pouring gasoline onto the "average American" to mocking Obama's aunt's "limp."
If Wallace wants to continue to portray his network and influential Sunday show as a credible source of news, he owes it to his viewers to speak out publicly against Fox News' recent behavior. So please join us in asking Chris Wallace to publicly denounce Fox News' recent actions and repair the damage done to his network's credibility.
