Health Care 2010: The Pelosification of Politics
Posted to Nancy Pelosi,  Health Care Reform,  United States,  by: DrReason...[3/16/2010 9:40:00 AM]
This is what it has come to. A couple thousand pages here, a couple thousand pages there. This version, that version. Dealmaking masked as debate. Winks and nods. Backroom bribes, nepotism, and favors for constituents. And by constituents, I do not mean voters or that salty old notion of “the people”. I mean the real constituents – those whose bidding the politicians do. The big insurance companie...

Questions for Goooh.com from an American Federalist
Posted to Elections,  New York,  United States,  by: tpaine2009...[3/16/2010 8:56:00 AM]
Whatever Goooh is, by that “mission statement” it has just united both parties in opposition to Goooh and I suspect provided supporters of both parties with the motivation to get out the vote! Since Goooh states it is not a party, I don’t know what benefit an independent would derive from supporting a movement that clearly has no agenda other than “change”. Doesn’t solve problems, doesn’t move us ...

Posted to Economy,  California,  by: Indie...[3/16/2010 8:48:00 AM]

So, does that mean Los Angeles can expect to get paid back for his funeral from last year?

One L.A. resident, Jose F. Vallejos, filed a petition in court in January asking that the estate pay back $3.3 million to the L.A. City Treasury. Los An...

Presidential Reunion Video from Funny or Die - Hilarious!
Posted to Barack Obama,  Economy,  United States,  by: lucre...[3/15/2010 2:53:00 PM]
I had to look past the new agency (Consumer Financial Protection Agency) they are pushing for in the video, but one thing is for sure - this is one of the funniest presidential satire videos I have seen in a long time. Reminds us that sometimes it is important to just laugh about politics and politicians every once in a while.

Time to put my money where my mouth is!
Posted to Government Corruption,  New York,  United States,  by: tpaine2009...[3/14/2010 7:37:00 AM]
It’s very easy to take pot shots at, or criticize others who are trying to find a political solution to the corruption in Washington and regardless of the rhetoric others may use, we Americans are not being deprived of any Constitutional rights or freedom by what is happening in Washington today. We are, however, having our property stolen and our vote nullified by the special interests now contro...

As an “Independent”, politically am I relevant, or not?
Posted to Elections,  New York,  United States,  by: tpaine2009...[3/13/2010 1:46:00 PM]
Before anyone gets a burr in their shorts, I too, and my entire family consider ourselves Independent in our politics. But speaking for myself I know that as an independent I do not have a base of similar minded voters that can represent in a cohesive and organized manner my views and values. As such, I am forced to choose between one of the two corrupt parties or else I can’t participate in our d...

Congress / NYState legislature / Taxes / Health Care
Posted to Taxes,  New York,  United States,  by: Uncle Sam...[3/12/2010 7:41:00 AM]
I recently attended a public meeting with my NYS representative and responded to a survey by my Congressmen. In both cases their attitude appears to be that they will help me by obtaining some of MY tax money by bargaining with other representatives, or by eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse in the system (bureaucracy) they support.
