I suspect that W still says ‘NU-kyuh-lur’ even when no one is listening. The least one can say is that he was not a fake. Acceptance of his reality however, and Boner’s, makes one sympathetic to the Révolution française.

Boehner’s tone is bone chilling. Also, isn’t it incredibly ironic that Boehner (and many other Republicans) can carry on in such an irrational manner when the Media couldn’t criticize Howard Dean enough for his “outburst” many years ago.

I hate the Media but I love this clip.

Wow, equating the opposition to a bill that literally opens up the door to making slaves out of America through their pocket books the the opposition to civil rghts of man. This is trite propoganda spout by yet another out of touch group…celebs. Who gives a f@#*k what celebs think.

I disagree. What’s really stupid is voting against universal health care for all Americans and wasting billions of dollars on wars, drugs, black sites, “nukuler” weapons (as Bush used to say) and vicious video games.
