If the government really wanted to take care of the uninsuraed they would require each insurance company to cover their fair share of uninsured people and the government would give money to each insurance company to take care of them. But Obama, Peloski and Reid want power over all of our lives. They don't want anyone else to have power over their lives so, of course, they are excluded from having to be a part of this health care plan. They want a loophole but do not want the average american to have the same.

They want us all to be sheep and follow. I for one do not want someone controlling me. This is America not Obamerica.

I can't believe most of the people on this board are allowed out of their homes. Either you are a bitter pathetic left winger or a crazy right winger. Fact is most American's are in the middle and that is who is getting pissed off. Both sides need to be put to pasture and let the average working American control their OWN life and no one elses.

The rants and hate talk is barely worth mentioning beyond that they don't add anything constructive to the public forum of ideas. The Party of No is joining the ranks of the no-nothing crowd and free-lunchers who have nothing but animosity for our country.

Unfortunately the GOP will just continue to be blamed for promoting pure do-nothing and continue to be framed as leaderless with only paid corporate hate radio commentators leading all the remaining GOP lemmings off the cliff.

Mr Limbaugh is no more righteous than Father Connelly during the 30's who had many Americans petrified that Roosevelt was a

Communist, Jew-lover, etc...

He is only dangerous as long as people ignore his rhetoric.

So Pelosi thinks we who do not agree with this absurd health car plan are Nazi's. My Father fought in The underground in Europe against Nazis.He has only one leg and 60 plus years of pain for fighting against Nazis.Many of my family members died in Poalnd and Russia Fighting Nazis.NANCY PELOSI YOU ARE A DISCRACE TO MEN AND WOMEN WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES TO FIGHT NAZI TYRANNY.YOU OWE MY FAMILY AND MANY OTHERS A APOLOGY FOR YOUR REMARKS. BUT THEN AGAIN YOU ARE A COMMUNIST INFILTRATOR.YOU ARE THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE .YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!!!!!!!

pelosi was the first tocall the people who are at the town hall meetings nazis rush was just defending these people i am sick of all the mis information from the liberal media and i am a dem or was a dem iam turning to fox news and the heck with cnn and msnbc

If a hate crime bill becomes law, I doubt it will be in the lifetime of Rush or most of us. Such a law would make DA's charge with murder anyone who successfully incites someone else to kill a homosexual or abortion doctor, etc. People have been convicted of being accessory to a crime , like providing a weapon, etc. But a hate crimes bill will focus on historically-targeted victims. Rush often quotes Scripture as if he actually is himself "an avenging angel speaking from on high." He is so compulsive that I wonder if he would do his broadcasts free. How must it feel, to think "If I make this fellow mad enough, he may take a gun and go after the clinic in the next town, hoping he won't be recognized or caught." I wonder which faith counselors shaped his personality. The old liars who wrote Scripture are long gone, but their incitement against homosexuals and atheists have had centuries of terrible consequences.

Robert - You must know but chose to ignore that Rush was responding to Nancy Pelosi's attack on the American people, calling them Nazis. In the same spirit of fairness, here's your blog post reproduced, using the same rules of context you are using for Rush Limbaugh:

"DEMOCRATS ARE LIKE NAZIS. I wrote earlier today. It's mind-numbingly non-sensensical. Democrat/Nazi comparisons are justifiable. The White House is compiling some sort of enemies list from forwarded e-mails. The health care reform is going to empower the government to murder old people.

New Majority revenues have declined. They need to get crazier just to keep raking in the bucks. They actually do indulge in paranoid fantasies. Wingnut demagogues Nazis have seized power."

Loosen the bowtie and try a little honesty. Thanks.
