Insurance Requirement: Borrowed From GOP

Posted By Rod Kaufman
So the socialistic, marxist, fill in the blank, sinister government requirement mandating health care insurance actually came from the Republicans. Who'd have thought?

Fortune Teller To Lose Head

Posted By Rod Kaufman
A Saudi Arabian TV show host who claimed to to be able to foresee future events will have his head chopped off for "sorcery." The religious police saw the show and decided to bust his chops.
And here I thought Palin and the Tea Party types were nuts!

Palin, Fox News & Toby Keith

Posted By Rod Kaufman
I suspected, I just knew, Toby Keith had nothing to do with Palin and her Fox News deal:

Glad to know they're turning a profit and they're not owned by the Obama administration as has been reported by various posters in this forum...

Obama Responds to Gangster Party

Posted By Rod Kaufman
It's nice to hear the commander-in-chief telling it like it is to the amorphous entity known as the tea party:
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/04/16/obama-says-tea-partiers-owe-him-a-thank-you/?fbid=f9Gbf1i2IyA
Other than Palin, I doubt if very many of them make 250,000/year to be affected era by Reagon-era tax burdens. Do you?
So what does the tea party do? Those haters respond by calling the Obama administration, "gangster land". The relentless BS of those and their ilk that yell marxism, socialism, communism, Armageddon, death panels, you'll disconnect granny from the ventilator, etc, etc...

UK Politics?

OK I admit I don't know a lot about UK politics.

A Conservative-Lib Dem coalition in the UK in opposition to Labour. Someone explain to me how, ideologically, this works. Sounds like here in the U.S. if we had, say, socialists and republicans form a coalition against the dems.
Here's a comparo that might help a bit:

However, I've seen enough to know that at least outgoing PM Gordon Brown had the guts and, unfortunately, the obvious need to denounce blatant antisemitism in his country:

After going at it last year with the pro Islamist Jihadist opinion makers on a British News website for awhile, I'm convinced Britain is a hotbed of anti-Israeli extremists and everything that goes with it...
