Republicans don't care about the U.S.

Congress has only one goal and that is to get Obama out of office. Republicans don’t care who has a job, who gets health care, who gets social security or how the banks handle your money. They will vote this country into the ground to achieve their one and only goal for 2012.

REPUBLICAN GENOCIDE

REPUBLICAN GENOCIDE. Hitler took down 6 million people but the republicans are going for 30 million working class Americans who are suffering without Health Care. As long as the republicans have their spray on tans, starched collars, perfect benefit packages, big houses and Tea Party cruises why should they worry about the unemployed they created under Bush? Republicans under Bush could afford two wars, billions of dollars for military contracts, tax cuts for the rich and business/banking deals without regulations. Now the republicans and the insurance companies turn the guns on us, the voters. The U.S. can afford Health Care. It is the insurance companies, not the government that have gotten too big. As the clock ticks republicans want to debate caps on lawsuits (Tort reform) while Americans have tumors growing, conditions worsening and prescriptions unfilled. Everyone should be very suspicious about any democrat who doesn't vote for Health Care (my guess an insurance company donation fixed that). Fight back, speak up and support Health Care for all. If you think it’s too expensive wait until you see what happens without it. Marty@CoffeeForDC.com

A Cup of Coffee for President Obama

Cheers! President Obama gets a cup of coffee for doing a great job presenting the Health Care plan. Better late than never but in the process he showed great style, manners, poise under pressure and the best of worst of all the politicians around the table. I have nothing against republicans that show up with a logical argument, which I have to think about but I’m exhausted with Mitch McConnells, John McCanes and John Boehners who show with memorized “talking points”. It really dates them to the Bush years and puts them out of step with what America is looking for in today’s lawmakers. At the end of the day the Republicans were unmoved that 30 million people suffer without insurance and are one illness or accident away from a ruined life. As long as we can fight cave people in foreign countries we can afford Health Care for all Americans.

CNN did a poor job letting us get the real story

I watched the debate all day as the President held an informitive open meeting with Democrats and Republicans over issues with Health Care. CNN interrupted with their interpretation of things and frankly I could do my own thinking. The lawmakers were right there and speaking well on the points they had to make. Wolf and his crew actually thought they had more important interpretations to offer while other speakers were still at the mic. The only way to hear it all and understand what led to what was to watch it all on your computer. Wolf Blitzer was really in the way.

To Hume: Freedom of Religion is a Costitutional Right

Fox News continually oversteps boundaries and fails to stick to the news, which they don’t report anyway. Commentator “Brit Hume has publicly called for Tiger Woods to convert to Christianity to find forgiveness and redemption following his sex scandal. And even after Tiger's apology — in which he reaffirmed his Buddhist faith —Hume still thinks Christianity is the best path for him”. This is America, Hume, where we are free to practice any religion we want. To make this fair Tiger should ‘publicly call for Hume to become a Buddhist.

It’s none of Hume’s business what Woods does in his private life to heal his marriage. There all sorts of definitions of Buddhism and whether it is a religion or a philosophy of life Woods is doing what is best for him. In all the explanations of Buddhism there is a code of morality, a meaning of life, a desire to improve one’s situation, cultivation or life by doing good deeds and purification of mind from mental impurities. Buddhism does not generally involve worship of a supernatural entity but there is an acceptance of a higher power. If all this is good enough for AA why is not good enough for Hume?

A Rare Bipartisan Breakthrough for Jobs!

It's about time somebody showed some courage.

In a rare bipartisan breakthrough, the Senate pushed a $15 billion measure intended to spur job creation over a crucial preliminary obstacle Monday night after five Senate Republicans broke ranks to back consideration of the Democratic leadership initiative.
