Obama is a joke. The entire healthcare reform is a joke. If it passes the senate with the public option, shit is going to hit the fan. ---

Tell me this… out of all the smart people in the general public how come NOBODY came up with a cunning way to ACTUALLY MAKE A CHANGE??? I am telling you we need more rallys and riots and shit to get them to pay some fucking attention. And HANK IS RIGHT. I am supprised it hasnt happend yet. ---

How many of you did anything proactive to try to prevent any of these things you find so terrible? I did. How about besides vote? No one should be allowed to just whine about it when they watched it happen from the start. ---

the bow wasn’t the bad part, he bowed to far, that showed a sign of weekness in the japanese culture. and they have research that shows that manograms at 40, which is what they currently recomend, can do more harm then good. so they want to push the recomended age back to 50. ---

But some women are at high risk, and self exams only show you so much. Every two years is garbage, and they can also do a CT scan instead of a regular mammogram if they’re worried about doing damage. It costs no more, and it’s also covered under insurance. Jerks. SAVE THE BEWBZ! ---

Why are you guys so surprised? Did you think that anyone can get the country out of the shit hole it’s in? I called it. During the elections I said that whether Obama or McCain wins, it won’t matter. Neither of them will fix anything. This country is in too deep. There is no way to fix this. Politics is engrained in our society. Meaning: no matter what, people are looking out for number 1 (lobbyists/people who vote them into their positions) instead of everyone (the US of A). Who the hell needs a political party. Just one party, one common goal, for one peoples (Americans). That’s IT. EDIT: Political discourse should still be present, meaning what Obama says isn’t what goes. We should still have senators, congress, etc. but they should all be working towards the same goal and not the goal of their respective parties, etc. They should still be able to voice their opinions, increase spending here, decrease spending there, etc. This would effectively still make it a democracy, but I think, in a perfect world, would reduce corruption/bickering between officials/parties, etc. ---

Meaning: no matter what, people are looking out for number 1 (lobbyists/people who vote them into their positions) instead of everyone (the US of A). Who the hell needs a political party. Just one party, one common goal, for one peoples (Americans). That’s IT. I look at it a different way. It’s not who can fix it, but who can not make it worse off than it already is. I don’t see this country’s problems getting fixed anytime soon, if ever. At the time of the elections (and now) I believed that McCain would be better than Obama. And I think that the shit Obama has been doing so far, other people will agree with me now. I haven’t been following the news for a while but I hear bits and pieces of things. And of course I hear my dad curse the everliving shit out of that, and I quote “fucking ass hole n!gger”. :rofl You can never have just one party, you have got to be joking. ---

I would like to know this as well. I voted, but it wasn’t for Obama or McCain. As far as what I have done? I have attended a tea party march. It’s not a bullet to the head, but every one counts in the fight against this BS. If there is something more proactive that I can do, mailing senators, reps, w/e, I will. Because if we don’t stand up for what we are arguing against, we will lose. ---

no matter what you do there will be corruption and dickheads. white, black, red, yellow - corruption knows no prejudice. to fix America you need to clean peoples minds. people need to get back to not standing for corruption when it happens. unfortunately this is only going to be accomplished with a massacre. ---
