Nah.  I save that kind of fun for Sundays, right after church.

I&#039;m sorry, Charlie Sheen, but were your words supposed to have meaning, or did you just cram a bunch of words together to see what kind of sentence they would form?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote my Congressional representatives all last summer and during the first part of this year.  In fact I wrote all of the Democrats in the House of Representatives -- telling them Obamacare was a massive entitlement program that would completely destroy this country economically.  My biggest concern, however, was the impact of the Government taking over 1/6 of our economy.  I told them I would fight Obamacare until the day I die  -- I was born free and I do not want to die a Socialist!  This message is a continuation of my battle.

I have developed a list which I would like you to reference or post on your site if at all possible.  It shows all of the opponents of the 219 House Dems who voted in March 2010 to pass Obamacare by listing the House Dems by state, district, general geographic area of district, and membership in the Congressional Progressive Caucus. This list is currently posted on the following website which you may want to link to:

      www.docs4patientcare.org

The Docs4PC website also has an interesting WSJ article written by a doctor to his patients, &quot;Dear Patients -- please vote to repeal Obamacare&quot;.   By the way, I am not a doctor nor am I employed in the healthcare field -- only a patient interested in preserving our country and our healthcare. 

If you would like me to forward a copy of the list in a PDF or EXCEL format which you can change in any way you wish to fit your purposes, please let me know asap -- we only have 22 more days until the election.  Hopefully, this list will encourage people to contribute to or vote for the opponents!

Thanks,
Joy Putnam]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I used to vote mainly Republican (I&#039;m also a Christian so I&#039;m used to being persecuted!), but in the last 2 elections voted Libertarian because I don&#039;t think the 2 party system works anymore. I strongly feel that ALL politicians are completely out of touch with reality. I especially feel the Dems are trying to BANKRUPT our country (so that China can take over---who knows?!) Anyway, great site bud. Keep it up!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve added your blog to my favorites, mostly as a reminder that there is inteligent life on this planet. My 2 cents for those trying to understand liberalism: Think of liberalism as a drug: Sometimes useful for the short term in small doses, but disastrous as a lifestyle choice. The analogy works very well in almost every respect. &quot;Why do you think they call it &#039;dope&#039;?&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow...I am glad I stumbled on your blog.  Your answer to the AgainstViolence person was very helpful.

“Liberals are not evil; however, their ideology has proven to be a demonstrable failure and incredibly harmful when administered on the body politic.”

Thank you very much for that reminder.  I need it refreshed every now and then.  This isn&#039;t against people, it&#039;s against a wrong worldview.

		<description><![CDATA[Jeff, I hate no one.  I was quite critical of Bush many times during his administration, and I feel that he betrayed us conservatives who voted for him.  He is largely responsible for the decline in the GOP&#039;s prominence today.

&lt;blockquote&gt;The U.S. is, without question, the most capitalist-, business- and corporate-friendly country in the world.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Since you seem confused, let me clear this up for you: that&#039;s a GOOD thing!  Or, if you prefer: Capitalism is good, and socialism sucks.  There.  Hope that helps.

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;...I am a small-government social and fiscal conservative who values life, liberty, and property…AND ACCOUNTABILITY!&quot;   So then, you must have hated George W. Bush?

I grew up in a loving middle-class family also, have lived in the South most of my life (now near Gainesville, FL), and also feel blessed (law degree, good job, health, friends, etc.).  My perspective is probably very different than yours.  My strong sense is that intelligent debate in this country has been warped, at least since the early 1800s, by corporate influences.  The U.S. is, without question, the most capitalist-, business- and corporate-friendly country in the world.  It&#039;s the dominance of THAT ideology which has made it difficult to address in a mature way, the various problems that our society faces.  I think that private enterprise has an extremely important role to play, but thinking that the &quot;invisible hand of (totally free) markets&quot; is going to solve those problems by itself is simply incorrect.  The profit motive alone cannot do the job.  Left to manifest without regard, it will result in the abuse of people (including children), abuse of the environment, and eventually, efforts to control entire cultural agendas.  There must be partnerships with, and appropriate oversight by, governmental interests.  If not, what you get is a Robber Baron economy/society.]]></description>
