Revisionists are at it again! This time it's with the Holy "Liberal" Bible of all things. Evidently the word of God isn't good enough for some of these wing-nuts, so they're recreating the Bible in their own image. What was it that God said to Moses, you remember the one about "Do Not Use The Name of The Lord Thy God in Vain," which should include don't change what I had to say to suit your own desires. If you truly believe in God and the Bible, then you have to know that a helluva lot of conservatives in today's world are making things up to suit their own wants, needs, and desires. They ignore the tenets, the real truths we were once led to believe!

"In a Special Comment Hour, Countdown's Keith Olbermann explains how the American health care system is broken and why it's so important that the government..." Without a doubt this is the best commentary ever on the reasons and the need for healthcare reform! Keith Olbermann has outdone himself in his one hour long passionate "Special Comment Hour" -- 'Healthcare as basic as life itself,' 'America's widening health gap,' 'Companies betting on employees' lives,' 'Respecting pain and patient,' and 'a wake-up call to Washington'." Thanks Mr. Olbermann from someone who worked in the healthcare field long enough to know that America is definitely in need of Reform! The "pay up or die" that has become the all American healthcare delivery system is not acceptable to those Americans who really do love their neighbors, who really do care about others.

"Subject: Why Chicago Lost the Olympics" It's all that and more -- actually mainstream corporate media from the time it was aired that President Obama was going to Copenhagen to put in his bid for the Olympics in Chicago, the media also aired that the people in Chicago didn't want the Olympics. There was negative publicity surrounding the whole deal -- "it wouldn't benefit the people of Chicago," "it would cost the Illinois taxpayers too much money"! Do you really think the Olympics would want to come where the media made clear (rightly or wrongly) the Olympics weren't wanted!

"The vast right-wing conspiracy is back" There's only one way to get rid of down and dirty politics, and that's to GET RID OF REPUBLICANS, every last one of them, VOTE THEM OUT! They lie, they cheat, and (remembering the Repuglican appointed United States Supreme Court of 2000) they will steal to continue their quest of fleecing the American people! There isn't a Repuglican left in Washington, D.C., or the rest of the country for that matter, that gives a damn about America or the American people! They wrap themselves in a facade of patriotism in order to continue raping and pillaging America. Theirs is an ideology built on power and greed, they use religion as a prop to hide the truth of their need to control! There is no dealing with the devil incarnate, there is no dealing with a Repuglican, negotiation for them is MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY or to just say NO to everything good for the American people!

"SEN. JON KYL (R), ARIZONA:... the people in the White House need, instead of being armchair generals themselves, need to consider what the expert has recommended. And it's not just General McChrystal but also General Petraeus... we need to have a surge of troops, as we did in Iraq,..time is of the essence...In the middle of a war, you frequently have to make decisions quickly." Yeah sure, we can see where that split second decision to leave Afghanistan and invade Iraq got us! Don't forget when these Repuglicans are offering up their looney toon advice, that they're the ones who got us all into this mess in the first place, it was their incompetence that brought America to the brink of disaster. So why in hell would anyone want to take their ridiculous advice all over again!

"Republican lawmakers have been pressing Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) to apologize." Tell the Repuglicans to stick it where the sun don't shine -- there is no need for Rep. Alan Grayson to apologize, he's been telling the God's honest truth, and the truth does NOT require any apologies! The Repuglicans are nothing more than a disgusting bunch of lying thugs posing as statesmen and it's about time they've been called out on their miserable despicable methods of governance! Just say NO is not acceptable anymore! Hooray for Rep. Grayson!!!

"Dems in Despair Finally Find a Champion Who Won't Back Off Defending Sanity: The Unlikely Hero is Rep. Alan Grayson of Florida" Leading by example, finally a Democrat with a backbone! If more Dems were like Rep. Grayson, then maybe we'd get some real healthcare reform! We need to do everything we can to support REP. GRAYSON'S efforts!

If the Repuglicans ever manage to get back into the most powerful office in the world, the Oval Office, will they then start actually start "pulling the plug on Grandma"??? "Pawlenty told MSNBC's Joe Scarborough that worries about death panels 'are not irrational concerns'." The Repuglicans bring up the idea of "death panels" so often you have to wonder if it's part of their overall plan to assist the insurance companies bottom line, is this how they plan to pay back some of those millions in campaign contributions?? In the end, is it the Repuglicans who really want to get rid of all the old people??? After all it was the Repuglicans overwhelmingly voted for it when they first introduced it to America! "You would think that if Republicans wanted to totally mischaracterize a health care provision and demagogue it like nobody's business, they would at least pick something that the vast majority of them hadn't already voted for just a few years earlier. Because that's not just shameless, it's stupid... that's right. Remember the 2003 Medicare prescription drug bill, the one that passed with the votes of 204 GOP House members and 42 GOP Senators?....want to guess what it provided funding for? Did you say counseling for end-of-life issues and care? Ding ding ding!!"

Repuglican logic is insane! "during and after yesterday's House admonishment of Rep. Joe Wilson's (R-SC) outburst of 'You lie!' during President Obama's speech to Congress, GOP House members have been emerging to say that it was Obama who started the breach of decorum." The Repuglicans lie about anything and everything, from healthcare "death panels" to Obama's not a bona-fide citizen of the United States and this latest fabrication is without a doubt one of their most insane! They will lie at the drop of a hat if they think it will stir up those lunkheads making up their base! It's a sad state of affairs when politics mean more than country, there are NO AMERICAN HEROES in the Repuglican Party, just liars one and all!

While these guys have been called "blue dog" Democrats, they're really nothing more than Repuglican collaborators, scoundrels, Zell Miller villians! Selling the American people out, for personal gain -- Max Baucus has received more money than dirt from the healthcare industry! Did you really expect, a statesman???? Forgettabout it, their are very few statesmen left in Washington, DC! None on the Repuglican side of the aisle and just a few on the Democratic side, certainly the "blue dogs" are proving themselves to be as worthless as the Repuglicans!
