Pretty funny, actually, because Bunning and some of the GOP is like a teenage boy being dragged to a shotgun wedding trying to claim it's not all his fault and that he was probably tricked into this situation. That besides, he _can't_ marry her because he's already married to someone else and that as an old-school Mormon, he's standing on principle -- _his_ rights are being violated because given his druthers, he'd be a polygamist. The fact that hypothetical teenage boy doesn't have a job and spends what little money he DOES have on playing World of Warcraft online is just an inconvenient detail. -Kerry O. ??????????????? The above paragraph makes no sense......... I cannot decipher what is trying to be stated 
It's simple, really-- like the lad who has to own up to paternity under the shadow of a 12 ga., the the GOP strategy for this fall is to filibuster everything in sight (they've already threatened to do so/have done so 40 times this year already, a new record that looks to triple the old one), so as to hem and haw their way out of responsibility for obstructing needed legislation. Their aim is to blame the gridlock on the Democratic party while being pretty cagey about what they'll do, hoping people won't notice. Oh, they'll strike up the Tax Cutz Fer the Rich Band and claim tort reform will make medical care so cheap and plentiful we'll be giving dogs, cats and hamsters MRIs with all the excess capacity it'll generate. (Laff.) It might even get them a few seats, but after it's all done, they'll still be like Mark Sanford of S. Carolina. -Kerry O. Well, try as I might, I cannot comprehend how you came up with this comparison.......nevertheless......Bunning was not 'filibustering' he was, in his own words 'OBJECTING' to the democrats NOT having a plan to pay for the UCC benefits extension, which, by the way, was temporary and only extended benefits for 30 days to some 400,000, whose benefits, including all of the Tier 1, 2, 3, were already used up. The bill also included other provisions for other projects, NOT just for the UCC benefits. Be that as it may, it was quite obvious that Bunning had no intention of never voting for the bill, he was making a last stand, as he is retiring, to point out the fact that Harry Reid, who partook in initiating the 'pay as you go' policy, was totally going against his own policy in wanting to pass a bill with NO provision for paying for it. A bit on the hypocritical side for Reid and the democrats. Point in check that Bunning made quite clearly. End result is 'voila' pull out of the magic hat, a new bill was quickly packaged together (perhaps the democrats already has this on the back burner and just want to score some desperate last minute political points to use against the Republicans for the November elections?????), which bill is even bigger, but my oh my, all of a sudden there is a way to pay for it.......and all shall vote for it and live happily ever after........ P.S. Oh, this was on the news tonight, FOX of course, what else would I dare to watch? FOX is not a news outlet....try CNN or remain ignorant. "Bunning relents; jobless benefits deal reached" http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/03/02/jobless.benefits.bill/index.html?hpt=T3 BONUS SITE: Proof that FOX is a GOP/corporate shill station that only appeals to the lower end of the IQ ladder in America...well, and racist morons as well...clueless people basically. 
www.outfoxed.org "Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know." Oh, my, what an ugly, hateful, nasty, meaningless statement filled with a bunch of words equaling a bunch of nothing.

I guess the truth hurts...that network has done a lot of damage. Seems like too many Americans blow that stick. FOX draws a lot of racists and other haters...and that usually indicates a low IQ as well..I mean one would have to be pretty thick to follow them for news...I could post their lies all day here and not one of their viewers would be able to acccept that they are being lied to...constantly. 
Its been estimated that 11 million Americans are idealogical and/or political sheep, totally blind to reality. But back on topic...the emergency bill was passed...but again, an indicator that we have a long way to recovery and it may take years to undo the damage. |

Well, try as I might, I cannot comprehend how you came up with this comparison.......nevertheless...... Quite alright, I'm sure some of us don't understand how Hannity and Limbaugh come up with some of their material either, but I seem to recall your saying on here recently that 'the other side' is just afraid of their opinions. I'm sure you're still trying to figure out why Rick Santorum could have possibly gotten the electoral size 12 boot out of the Senate in 2006, too. :) Bunning was not 'filibustering' he was, in his own words 'OBJECTING' to the democrats NOT having a plan to pay for the UCC benefits extension, which, by the way, was temporary and only extended benefits for 30 days to some 400,000, whose benefits, including all of the Tier 1, 2, 3, were already used up. The bill also included other provisions for other projects, NOT just for the UCC benefits. Oh please. Jim Inhofe is ranked THE most conservative member of the Senate and even he said Bunning was single-handedly causing a lot of grief and called him to tell him so and quit doing it. Google up 'Bunning filibuster'-- it's all over the news. Be that as it may, it was quite obvious that Bunning had no intention of never voting for the bill, he was making a last stand, as he is retiring, to point out the fact that Harry Reid, who partook in initiating the 'pay as you go' policy, was totally going against his own policy in wanting to pass a bill with NO provision for paying for it. A bit on the hypocritical side for Reid and the democrats. Point in check that Bunning made quite clearly. Whatever. In those immortal words of Dick Cheney, "Deficits don't matter." -Kerry O. |

Sooooooooooooo, what point are you attempting to make? LOL.......... Oh pretty much that when many conservative Republicans are presented with facts that they can't or won't debate on the merits or are reminded about the past behaviours of their conservative brethern, they'll pull their own version of the Senate filibuster with trash talk. Bunning did this by flipping off the newscasters and telling the Democrats 'Tough *expletive deleted*'. You're doing it by not even attempting to refute facts by doing much the same thing with your veiled insinuations attacking my sanity or ability to post a coherent rebuttal. You're not fooling anyone. Your whole debating strategy is based on ad hominems. How do the lawyers say it? "When the facts are against, you argue the law. When the law is against you, argue the facts. When the law and the facts are both against you, pound the table." -Kerry O. |
