all right, I understand everyone has its own agenda when it comes to healthcare reform. from doctors,hospitals, clinics, insurance companies just to name a few. we need to make sure to show our views and President Obama again has launch a campaign where all of us during the month of June/2009 can emphasize what outcomes they will like to see in healthcare reform. so please go to http://www.barackobama.com/index.php and HOST YOUR OWN EVENT OR MAKE SURE TO ATTEND ONE AND MAKE SURE YOUR VIEWS ARE WRITTEN ON THE “PROPOSAL” THAT NEEDS TO BE SEND BACK AFTER THE EVENT IS HOSTED.
THIS IS PERHAPS OUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE OUR VOICE HEARD!!! AFTER THIS THE SENATE WILL WRITE THE HEALTHCARE REFORM BILL!!!

Comment on Blagojevich Scandal the First Test of Post-Partisanship Washington by coffee fiend

Blagojevich has been so successful at making himself and his office look ridiculous that about a million people are now able to remember and maybe even spell his crazy name — that’s sort of like an accomplishment, right?

Let’s make open primaries a “natiional issue” so everyone can participate in the electins. Please sign the open letter to Pres.-elect Obama calling on him to take a series of measures to support the open primary issue at http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/independentvoting.html

Comment on Senator Palin. President McCain. An October Surprise. by Carmelo

This is a very weird analysis. If McCain would had picked a “white male” running mate, his campaign would have been loss since the start. Sarah Palin is the reason he has a good chance to win. Governors have more experience than senators. Sarah Palin as governor is more fit for the vice presidency or the presidency than any senator. If McCain wins, it would be Sarah Palin who will have better chances to beat Hillary Clinton in 2012. Or beating a desastrous one term presidency of Obama.

McCain will pull this one off. There is too many more distrust on Obama than Bush or McCain combined. 18 million Hillary supporters will come out the shadows, plus 3 million hardcore racists.

Obama’s Redistribution of Wealth/Income video:

Obama says Constitution is “Deeply Flawed”:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11OhmY1obS4

Here is the most liberal Senator in Congress, alongside the third most-liberal Joe Biden, espousing a socialist viewpoint on redistributing income of workers to folks not paying any income tax (i.e., 50% of the 95% of folks “not rich”, according to Obama’s views); also known as “welfare”.

Obama is trying to buy the presidency – he is building a coalition of people who don’t pay taxes that want something for free – and he characterizes this as some form of social and economic “justice”; i.e., reparations.

Obama is a hardened ideologue. He’s not interested in playing around the edges. He seeks “fundamental change,” i.e., to remake society. This is the change he has in mind.

Is the allure of a charismatic demagogue so strong that the usually sober American people are willing to risk an Obama presidency? And if democrats are able to control both houses of Congress – including a potential filibuster-proof majority…

Vote for America, vote for McCain/Palin!!!
