Patrick Kennedy is right about the MSM no matter how he said it on the floor of the U.S. House!

Leave it to the right wingers of this country to AGAIN refuse to listen to the words of a Democrat, but instead, concentrate on how the Democrat is saying it.
Here’s Patrick Kennedy melting down on the floor of the House because he’s pissed that the MSM is still missing in action about Afghanistan (and Iraq):

Dick Cheney’s lies about President Obama
by, Eugene Robinson
It’s pathetic to break a New Year’s resolution before we even get to New Year’s Day, but here I go. I had promised myself that I would do a better job of ignoring Dick Cheney’s corrosive and nonsensical outbursts — that I would treat [...]

How do you rate President Obama’s Afghan war speech tonight?

Out of a possible 10 points I give tonight’s speech a 5. What stood out to me the most was “9/11, al-Qaida, win”. TIRED OF THIS KIND OF SPEECH! PRESIDENT OBAMA, YOU ARE NOT GEORGE, SO STOP ACTING LIKE IT! THE RIGHT WING WILL HATE EVERYTHING YOU DO NO MATTER WHAT! STOP PANDERING TO THEM [...]

Michael Moore writes an open letter to President Obama reminding him Americans do not want a new war president!

An Open Letter to President Obama from Michael Moore
Monday, November 30th, 2009
Dear President Obama,
Do you really want to be the new “war president”? If you go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war [...]

President Obama! End the wars in Iraq & Afghanistan! Osama bin Laden is dead! Al-Qaida is on the CIA payroll!!! Stop the farce and the money laundering!!!!

NO MORE TROOPS IN GEORGE BUSH’S & DICK CHENEY’S WARS/FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS!!!!

Thank a veteran today any way you can and then tell President Obama bringing our troops home from Afghanistan and Iraq is the only way to show them we care about them (can’t feel good being in illegal occupations where there is no winning to be achieved!) and then remind him [...]

Open Thread…

A good friend of mine is in the hospital and is on life support after a guy he knew for years waited for him to leave his building and then ran him over with his truck! He tried to kill him….and he may succeed. Bail has been set at $1,000,000 right now. Good gawd. I’m [...]

QUOTE OF THE DAY:

GLENN BECK AT CPAC 2010: ‘Hello, my name is the Republican Party, and I’ve got a problem. I’m addicted to spending and big government…I’m addicted to spending and I just don’t want to spend today.’ (CLICK HERE FOR LINK TO QUOTE)

"If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.” ~ John F. Kennedy, 1960
