Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

Bigotry is a social disease.

Legalized same-sex marriage almost certainly benefits those same-sex couples who choose to marry, as well as the children being raised in those homes. - David Blankenhorn is president of the New York-based Institute for American Values and the author of "The Future of Marriage."

"I'm not going to be able to go the distance, but that's primarily for financial reasons." Snow said. "I've told people when my money runs out, then I've got to go."

According to The Washington Post, Snow makes $168,000 as the White House spokesman.

It's not just you. I was thinking the same thing.

One would think that with that salary and the best health insurance in the country -- Federal employee insurance -- that he could make ends meet even if he does have cancer.
Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this.

Whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute! Are you trying to say to me that the federal employee health insurance and all it's red tape, bureaucracy, and super low-quality socialism is better than the glorious free market?!?

I don't know, man. My mother and oldest brother have Federal insurance and it is better than anything else that I have ever seen.

I wonder if it's any better than the free health care that suspected terrorists get at Gitmo...
Obama is a Socialist, racist Muslim who will tax us to death and McCain is a senile warmonger who will start WW3- Failtards.

"Sooner or later, people are going to figure out if all you run is negative attack ads you don't have much of a vision for the future or you're not ready to articulate it."-Sen. John McCain, February 2000.

I miss the old McCain...

Yeah. My grandmother worked for the government all her life and it is the best I've seen without having to be rich and pay a fortune for a special plan.
