Brilliant!!! Once the Court became an offshoot of Political Ideologies it was time to dismantle it… I have a feeling we may all become Barbarians at the Gates soon…

The All-American Basketball Alliance

Good thing Oklahoma City stole a NBA team from Seatle or we might be stuck with the Inhofe Deniers and the Coburn Clodhoppers…

Don’t be surprised when you see these movies in next summers Box Office:
“A League Of Our Own 2”
“White Men Really Can’t Dunk”
“It Ain’t Right But Its White”
“Born To Dribble”

I wonder if they require the “Bellamy Salute” during the National Anthem?

…..Rage Against The Machine…..

Lesson learned… Next Time you vote for Change do everything you can to see to it Change occurs… I think if all Dem’s faced strong Primary challenges they just might get the message…

Maybe it all boils down to the fact we send “New Blood” to the White House, but left a bunch of “Old Blood” in place/charge in the legislative bodies.

Thank you Kalima,
I wouldn’t have voted for Brown, but I would have had a hard time biting the bullet to vote for Coakley too.
One thing I learned is that most of us view Mass. as a Liberal State when it is really a Democratic State and there is a Cultural Bias of sorts being experienced there between what it considered the “Educated Class”(Harvard) and the working class(Union) Democrats. Several “Factory” towns that always voted for Kennedy went to Brown this election.

Thanks bito, once the gap closed some and the race started coming to National attention all kinds of money flowed into both campaigns…

» Posted By Tiger99 On January 23, 2010 @ 12:27 pm

This from Washington post- “As of Nov. 18, Coakley had raised $4.2 million for the race and had $1.9 million in the bank; Brown, on the other hand, had raised just $460,000 and had $258,000 left to spend.” Browm raised his money much like the Obama Campaign on-line.
Also the GOP was basiclly ignoring Brown intil the last couple of weeks.

If Big Insurance spent bucks it would have been in last couple of weeks of campaign… From what I read both sides ran such a huge media blitz that there were no other commercials being seen almost 24/7…

I appreciate the compliment KQ. One of the reasons I wrote this piece was because many of us viewed this election as though it was a National Election more than a State Special Election,I know I did. There was good cause for that considering the consequences.
With the passing of Ted Kennedy the Machine lost it’s Patriarch and there is no Kennedy that was qualified enough to take his place. Kerry doesn’t fit the bill either.
One thing to note is that 3 Attorney Generals have run for higher office in Mass and not a single one won. Also, Coakley is from an area of the State that people in Mass. don’t vote into higher office, the last Governor from there was in the 20’s and the last Senator was early 50’s. Many people felt that Kennedy should have resigned early on in 2009 and if he had there would have been a different atmosphere and Dem’s would have kept the seat.

javaz while researching this artcle I learned that the people of Mass are quite content with the system they have in place and with little complaints.
There are some costs issues that are being addressed and issues with wait times, but that has nothing to do with the State plan in itself than with a shortage of primary care MD’s in the US. Everyone wants to be a specialist cause thats where the money is.
I wonder if next we’re gonna see people from Mass protesting with signs that say ” Keep Your Hands Off My Uniiversal Health Care”…

She Said What?!?

Boomer,
AdLib has given you excellent advice in the matter and should be your first course of action…
By singling this person out and if she didn’t mention his race outright (“the “N” should be lynched”) you could be creating a HR logistical headache for yourself… Proving this person had racial intent instead of political dissent could become difficult for you if no specific reference to the Presidents race was mentioned…

The issue for me isn’t paying Taxes to help others it is the 40% rate and that it doesn’t seem to be a universal “Fair Tax” on all…

» Posted By Tiger99 On January 20, 2010 @ 3:38 pm

javaz I watched in disbelief today as SEIU President Andy Stern defended his behind the scenes deal with President Obama on Taxing Health Care Benefits… He said that they would be phased in based on “Race” and “Gender”, let alone the fact the President supports Taxing my better halfs benefits at about 40% rate while taking steps to see that his benefits remain untaxed…
You wanna see anger let them pass the Bill that Taxes the working/middle class white guy while others with same excact benefits enjoy their’s Tax Free…

Don’t forget he drives an old pick up… 😀

Nellie remember what I mentioned yesterday about what people visualize?
You just can’t be seen sipping champagne in a Tux on Wall Street asking them to “play nice” and then insist on taxing Health Care benefits and expect the average working/middle class person to think you give a damn about them…

I am noticing that President Obama does seem to be becoming more public about defending the people against the “Big Bankers” and “Big Corps” on Wall Street instead of all the closed door type negotiations… Perhaps if this trend continues people will understand he is fighting for them…

Howard Dean is on MSNBC saying that 80% of the Dems who stayed home did so because there was no public option… One-Third of the people who voted for Obama and then voted for Brown did so because there is no public option…

Democratic Navel-Gazing, or The Circular Firing Squad – Part III

Wow !!! What a great post… I would love to see a large group of Dem’s who accepted PAC money from Hamsher make a big public display in returning it…

Marion, I have been meaning to ask,”Do you feel better now”? 😎

Democratic Navel-Gazing, or The Circular Firing Squad – Part II

I did donate to her fight for the public option fund…
I personally believe some of the “Backlash” the Dem’s are experiencing is from her and others “Catty” high profile attacks…
Having someone on Maddow yelling and threatening an Elected Official with “I dare you” and then to make a high profile attack against a charity doesn’t sit well with middle America…
As I said before I would love to see the Dem’s that accepted PAC money from her return it to her in unison on camera…

I think you might appreciate this…

“Jane Hamsher, Grover Norquist Call For Rahm Emanuel’s Resignation”

December 23, 2009

Attorney General of the United States of America
U.S. Department of Justice
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20530-0001

Dear Attorney General Holder:

I write to demand an immediate investigation into the fundraising activities of Jane Hamsher at her site Firedoglake… In the late summer of 2009 Jane Hamsher solicited funds on behalf of Firedoglake supposedly for a campaign designed to “Support Health Care Reform”… Over the last several days she is on the forefront of the “Kill The Bill” movement…
She has often refered to herself as a “journalist” but “journalist’s” do not involve themselves in raising funds for individual politicians or political movements…
As an American Citizen I would like to know where exactly does the money go that Jane Hamsher raises on her Site Firedoglake and if any monies raised to pass Health Care Reform Bill are now being used even remotely to help fund her campaign to “Kill The Bill”…
Enclosed is the receipt for payments donated to the “Support Health Care Bill” fund…

P.S.
Please forward this message to the IRS…
