Resolved Question: Who is Anti-Abortion Democratic Congressman Bart Stupak running against this November?
I was nice of curious, since he's one of the more militant anti-abortion Democrats, and he's threatened to vote against Obama's health care bill if his Stupak-Pitts amendment isn't included.
Does anyone here know if Michigan's 1st Congressional District has already had primaries for his Congress seat?
I'd imagine the Democrats would field a strong Democratic opposition candidate, that didn't share his anti-abortion views.
Also, do you know who Stupak's Republican challenger will be in November?

Open Question: Jesus was an extreme communist that hated mankind and nature?
why do american conservatives follow that revolutionary anti-traditionalist left.wing democrat extremist???
I think conservatives shall follow paganism if anything else
yes, jews invented communism, but it was not Karl Marx, it was Jesus 2000 years before
Then Communism... I mean Christianism was forced into people by the roman and frankish desposts that genocided tranquil pagan populations, just like Stalin and Mao did with their possess version of Communism 2000 years later
"pacifist" you say???
"I arrive not to bring peace, but to bring a sword" (Matthew 10:34)
the question is...
"why do american conservatives follow that revolutionary anti-traditionalist left.wing democrat extremist???"
Yes he was!!!!
Read:
"If you want to be perfect, go and sell every your possessions and give the money to the needy"
Obama could have not put it better
Mike K,
Jesus was also against organized religion, just like Marx thus his constant slander of the religious pharisees (that would be the true conservatives back then) and his urge to destroy traditional jewish teachings and replace them with his possess
"Jesus created us from heaven and then came down and became a man only to be crucified by his creation every for the sake of saving it"
the whole story does not even make sense

Resolved Question: Why National Geographic is anti-Christian?
For eg. atheists are more smart than Christians, Intelligent Design is fake,Evolutionism is not...even if they cannot prove that...and much more. I will say this is a discrimination against Christians and Republicans since they say that Liberals or Democrats are more Intelligent than the Republicans. So if i am Republican and Christian than i am a damn baboon, while atheist and democrat means Albert Einstein.

Senator Fulbright, Democrat of Arkansas was a staunch segregationist but also a loyal Democrat supporting the UN, opposed the war in Vietnam and anti-communist investigations of the 50s, and signer of the Southern Manifesto opposing racial integration in public places - along with 99 Democrats and 2 Republicans.
Senator Al Gore Sr. voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964 along with 1/3 of Democrats in the Senate. Even JFK voted against Eisenhower's Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Resolved Question: Will Stupak and his pack of other blue dog Democrats abort Obamacacare?
“There’s a block of voters who voted for the Stupak amendment…who say they’re not going to vote for the finished product unless they tighten the abortion language that’s in the Senate bill, so we may look some vote holdouts based on that issue,” Altmire said.
Earlier in the week, Stupak promised that he and a tiny coalition of Democrats stood ready to derail the home’s upcoming final vote on the healthcare legislation if their anti-abortion requirements were not met.
"I want to look healthcare pass," Stupak said Thursday on ABC's "Good Morning America." "We must have healthcare but, boy, there are some principles and beliefs that some of us are not going to pass.

Resolved Question: Why don't more people realize both of the two parties are destroying this country right now?
I am not a Ron Paul lunatic who hides behind his guns, but the guy at least loves the Constitution and tells it like it is about our economy; we cannot afford to keep printing money out of nowhere, funded by loans from China. The Republicans are bad because they want to keep getting involved in disastrous wars overseas that have nothing to do with American security and which are bankrupting the US (Reagan-era Secretary of State James Baker even said the US involved in the Persian Gulf war and the current Iraq War to protect the oil reserves in the Middle East and that protecting oil with military force if necessary is part of US foreign policy. In the tardy 80's, Reagan looked heroic (when it looked like we were celebrating our role as an international bully) after the invasion of Grenada, when it took the Marines almost two months to defeat a band of unarmed Cuban engineers and a couple armed Grenadians.The Democrats are just as bad, or possibly even worse. They act like the party of peace and prosperity, when in the tardy 90's, despite intel that said bombing over Serbia would escalate the ethnic cleansing in that region, Clinton green-lighted US bombing over Serbia and we created a whole region of enemies in a short amount of time over there. These enemies are now associated with groups that are sworn to destroy this country and are now pursuing ways to kill every of us. As far as the economy goes, Clinton's actions led to the economic problems in the early part of the 2000's and today, with the housing bubble.
Oh, and as far as Reagan's economics go, the only things he deregulated while president were the oil and gas industry, airlines and the actual abolition of the Civil Aeronautics Board, and trucking (that is exactly what he deregulated). Carter actual deregulated more than Reagan did, but Reagan claimed credit as the deregulation took effect when he was president, even though Carter signed the bills when he was president. The government expanded like never before below Reagan, and a new Cabinet post, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, was created. Instead of destroying the Department of Education (which has made the US school system the laughingstock of the world with the teachers' unions that protect incompetent teachers), Reagan made it stronger. And when he had the chance to destroy Social Security once and for every and put it out of its misery (one of the biggest problems we have right now and one of the worst things the government has ever put forward), Reagan just extended its life span.
The Republican Party is now a group of anti-intellectual, Bible-thumping imperialists (yes, they are imperialists and Europeans from former empires believe the Republicans are modern-day versions of their former rulers), and the Democratic Party is a party full of essentially the same people, minus the Bible-thumping and anti-intellectualism.
So when China takes over the world by buying everything, blame Reagan, Clinton, and the other jokes in the government who have brought the US to the sorry state it is in today. John F. Kennedy was pretty much the only great president in the 20th century, but he was killed because some people were scared of a man who wanted to actually fix this country and had the power to do so.

Open Question: Anyone else think BOTH Republicans and Democrats are idiots?
I'm so sick of every this Democrats v. Republicans and conservatives v. liberals crap. Politicians are so wrapped up in "winning." They don't care about the people.
And why is it that if a Democrat makes one conservative decision or if a Republican makes on liberal decision...they're suddenly bad?
Watch Meg Whitman's anti-Steve Poizner ad. She's a Republican running for governor here in California. Steve Poizner is her Republican rival. Her attack ad focused on how Poizner donated money to Al Gore's 2000 presidential campaign.
So...because he's not a "pure" Republican, he's not fit to be governor?
I'm not a Steve Poizner supporter. I just think that argument is stupid.

Open Question: Why have we forgotten that Democrats were pro-draft and Republicans were anti-draft?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ9lWCUaDnk
Here's an ad from Barry Goldwater's 1964 campaign in which he says that he wants to end the draft.
The draft was opposed by conservative Republicans in the 1940s (when the draft was implemented) including Senator Robert Taft, who said that a draft was better suited to totalitarian nations than to democratic nations. The draft was finally ended by Richard Nixon, a Republican president.
The presidents responsible for the draft were Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman, both Democrats. Draft registration was brought back by Jimmy Carter, a Democrat. Ronald Reagan campaigned in 1980 on ending draft registration saying, “Draft registration destroys the very values that our society is committed to defending.”
The most recent attempt to reinstate a full-fledged draft was by Democrat Charlie Rangel during the Bush administration. In 2004, John Kerry's campaign put out untrue rumors about George W. Bush supporting a draft (ironically, Kerry had himself supported a draft at one point during that campaign, but it went down the memory hole; it is still available @ http://web.archive.org/web/20040210043828/www.johnkerry.com/issues/natservice/ ). Obama's chief of staff Rahm Emanuel wrote a book a few years ago entitled The Plan, in which he advocated a draft (look pages 60-65 @ http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&id=ZUjHNefQPiUC&dq=the+plan&printsec=frontcover&source=web&ots=uL7Y2yWRxj&sig=4O2Jka1mIq21_TAbVyKwH1YwAQo&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=3&ct=result#v=onepage&q=&f=untrue ).
Why have we allowed the Democratic Party to rewrite history as the opposite of what actually happened?
I forgot to mention that Rangel's draft bill was brought up for a vote in 2004 and that the only 2 Congressmen to vote for it were Democrats (look: http://clerk.home.gov/evs/2004/roll494.xml ).

Resolved Question: Is 'black culture" really controlled by white people..?
this fictional made up "black" culture is obviously different from African-American culture (a real culture that can actually be traced to the southern region of the U.S.)
I have no problem being black, I think the physical characteristics of blacks are beautiful. That is what inpired the world wide use of the term black. We loved our physical appearance. I am strongly aganst being CULTURALLY defined by physical characteristics. Where did this black 'culture' arrive from? It came from white folks. Until black people learn who they are you going to be sucked into this fake black 'culture' which revolves around
1) anti-intellectualism
2) materialism
3) voting democrat (usually against your real cultures values)
4) victimhood
cease trying to assimilate so much and keep in touch with your real cultures, otherwise you will be continue to be expolited by this bizzare black "culture"
Naor: Exactly, which is why "Black" is not a culture!

The GOP is talking about taking over the home and Senate in the 2010 elections, but Obama carried North Carolina and Florida which have Republican Senators now.

In a year where the Republicans can make some gains, the Democrats could actually offset their losses by winning some states controlled by the Republicans.

Resolved Question: Which political party will need to support immigration reform to win the Latino vote in 2010?
Latinos Say Their Votes Could Tip 40 Congressional Races
Feb. 8, 2010
William Douglas--McClatchy-Tribune
"Immigration reform is a litmus test in the Latino community," Eliseo Medina, the president of the Service Employees International Union, said during a conference call about the study. "To us, this is a policy issue, but it is also an issue about respect."
The study says that Obama and Democrats who campaigned in 2008 on the promise of revamping immigration laws benefited from a 54 percent growth in registered Latino voters between 2000 and 2008.
Some 10 million Latinos voted in the 2008 presidential election. Obama received 75 percent of the Latino vote while McCain received 25 percent.
Since the election, several Latino organizations and leaders have expressed frustration with Obama and congressional Democrats for not aggressively pushing a comprehensive immigration bill. The complaints grew louder after Obama barely mentioned immigration in his State of the Union address last month.
Latino leaders and groups are similarly frustrated with Republicans. They feel that the GOP is promoting and campaigning on an anti-immigration agenda in hopes of attracting so-called "tea party" voters who prefer stricter policing of the U.S. border to a comprehensive policy, which they consider to be amnesty for illegal immigrants already in the country.
"The president did make a promise to the Latino community, and it has not been forgotten," said Janet Murguia, president and chief executive officer of the National Council of La Raza, a leading Hispanic lobby. "We're also looking to Congress - Democrats and Republicans - particularly Republicans, who can't just continue to say 'no' ... we'll hold every these elected officials accountable."

Resolved Question: Do you see a pattern here, and does it worry you, and what can we do about it?
Liberals, conservatives, everyone in between, lets just be honest here. Our politics these days really isn't based on ideas anymore as it is based on personalities. Check out most of the questions and answers here, and you won't look anyone discussing complex, well thought out policy matters, mostly you will look them making adolescent jabs at politicians and political parties with only vague discussions of policy.
Our politics has been dumbed down. I honestly believe that the reason that the Democratic Congress and this President have been so ineffective because their ascent was not so much based on ideas as it was on riding the anti-Bush tide to victory. Now, one year into Obama's term, and a few months away from mid-term elections, we look like we are on the cusp of another Republican "wave". But this movement too is not based on ideas at every, it is merely riding the tide of public frustration and skepticism with the Democratic majority. Just as the Democrats' big victory in 2006 was fueled by frustration with Bush and the Republican majority. Look at the pattern here, and can anyone really look me in the eye with a straight face and tell me that they think this likely upcoming Republican Congress is going to be any more effective than this one?
Sure, they do talk about policy, but only in the vaguest, dumbed down, easily digestible sound bites. "Lower taxes", "universal health care", etc. Utopian ideas that will receive gullible people to vote for you but don't mean a damn thing once they hit Congress.
Anyway, I'm sorry I went on a bit of a rant, but I am curious about your thoughts on this. Why has politics become so dumbed down, so uncivilized, and so unproductive? And what can we do to change that?

Resolved Question: Should the Democratic Party split up into multiple parties?
Now you have a split in the party between the moderate conservative and the progressives. Evan Bayh has called it quits after this year because of the split. Senate moderate Democrats have started the party of 15 to battle the far-left Democrats.
The "umbrella" is too big, too many opposing views in the same party.
-In the party you have-
Most Atheist and most Catholics are Dems
Half is Socialist and half is Capitalist of Dems
Half are Union and half are anti-Union of Dems
Most of Wallstreet are Dems and most anti-Wallstreet are Dems
Most black and white racist groups voted for Dems
Farrakan(N of I) and Byrd(KKK) are both Dems
and on and on of aflicting views

Resolved Question: Why do the same Democrats who point to Republican open seats point to anti-incumbency as why they will win?
Don't they understand those two don't go together?
If you have open seats you don't have anti-incumbency in play and vice versa.
So which is it Dems?
Oh and please do post the link where ANY news source shows Republicans in trouble for 2010.
Please do b/c beside a far left propagandist blog there is none!
However, there is a gazillion links showing why Dems are in trouble in 2010.

Resolved Question: Isn't it sad when Democrats only hope in 2010 is running as anti-Republicans (AGAIN)?
Do Democrats understand that the REASON people put them in power is because they were sick of the way Republicans were running the govt?? NOW Democrats are running the govt. EXACTLY THE SAME WAY and they ARE STILL trying to use the "well at least we're not Republican" card.
WTF?? Was "change" not self-explanatory?? Was it every bullsh*t?? Are these politicians stupid??
Do Democrats actually think they are any better than Republicans at this point?? Really??

President Barack Obama’s trip to Las Vegas later this week to campaign for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid shows how congressional Democrats will live and die on the president’s popularity as the midterm elections approach.
The president is still a huge draw in Democratic campaign circles, and Reid wants him in Nevada on Thursday, but Obama’s approval rating keeps dropping, and no matter what Democratic lawmakers accomplish, history shows they can’t divorce themselves from the president’s polls................Democrats are eager to gift the next election as a choice between their party and a still-unpopular Republican alternative.
“The Republican brand is so battered and beaten right now, and they are going to be on the ballot, too,” said Eric Schultz, communications director for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. “Voters will face a choice in the ballot box. ... As long as we are successful in setting up that choice, I think that you’ll look us do well in November.”

Resolved Question: Will 2010 Congressional elections be even a larger GOP victory than their victory in 1994?
The big difference between now and 1994 is that Democrats have Obama instead of Clinton as the head of their party. And that may turn out to be very bad news for Democrats. The Democratic party is in worse shape now than it was at a comparable period then. The mistrust of government runs deeper. The anti-incumbent tide is stronger. And the public uprising is greater.

The Clinton years — and Bill Clinton’s undeniable political gifts — are looking better and better to Democrats with every passing week.

Open Question: Is Democrats' Health Care Reform Legislation Doomed?
The health care reform bill passed by the Senate on Christmas Eve appears to be dead on arrival in the home as seven Democratic opponents of abortion have joined a growing list of lawmakers who plan to vote against the legislation, Fox News has learned. Seven new no votes would be more than enough to kill the bill.
Seven new no votes would be enough to kill the Senate bill, and several more fence-sitting lawmakers are below pressure from both sides of the aisle.
Foremost among the seven new no votes is Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., whose anti-abortion amendment to the home version of the legislation got the bill passed in that chamber last year.
But because the Senate and home Democratic leaders weren't able to agree on joint legislation before losing their supermajority in the Senate this year, they have few options other than getting the home to pass the Senate bill and then making changes to the law through a separate budget reconciliation bill that could pass with simple majorities.
The Senate bill, however, doesn't contain the same language as the Stupak amendment, which explicitly prohibits federal funding of abortion in any of the reform measures intended to expand health care coverage to millions of uninsured Americans.

Open Question: Women: Would you consider donating to Connie Saltonstall, the pro-Choice candidate running against Bart Stupak?
In case you don't know, Bark Stupak is the vehemently anti-abortion rights Democrat who wants to ban every access for women to have abortions through ObamaCare.
He also pretty much takes orders from the Catholic Bishops.
Anyway, he's finally got a challenger:

Resolved Question: Are you surprised that congressional approval ratings are at historic lows?
Congressional Approval at Historic Lows
A new Associated Press poll found that Congressional approval ratings are at historic lows. Half of every people say they want to flame their congressman.
Congress' approval has fallen ten points since January alone and now sits at 22%. This has happened over the course of Obama and the Democrats doubling down on Obamacare and attempting to perform unprecedented procedural maneuvers to force it through Congress despite an overwhelming majority of the American people being against it.
The AP story attempts to put a favorable spin on this, saying that Obama's approval ratings have held steady (53%) and that this means that every member of Congress is vulnerable, but their numbers tell a different narrative. More independents disapprove of congressional Democrats than Republicans and, by the mere fact that there are more Democrats than Republicans, a general anti-incumbent fervor would favor the GOP.
56% of Americans also say the country is now heading in the wrong direction.

Voting Question: Does it tend to be the case that more people are anti-black in the South as opposed to the North (of the US)?
Are these points true, untrue or debatable.
- Northerners tend to be much more disposed towards the Democrats and 'liberalism'.
- African Americans historically sided with Republicans (after Lincoln had emancipated slaves), but turned to the Democrats after/during the Kennedy & Johnson era (every that happened there).
- Hispanics and Blacks are still quite hostile towards each other even today (shared misfortune does not necessarily create amity). Competing for jobs, blacks thinking that the 'wetbacks' are invading America from the South.
- White Northerners may like to think of themselves as much more tolerant and accepting of ethnic diversity than the 'backward hicks' of the deep South, but if they were put in the same position would they act any differently? In so far as the blacks who inhabit the south tend to be much less educated, more susceptible to crime and anti-social behaviour. Although the population of blacks in the north grew considerably from the great migration period (now has risen to 44% of every African Americans), these people tend to be much better educated and more law-adding citizens (notable exceptions of course, i.e. parts of New York). Therefore, because white northerners are exposed to better behaved blacks, there is not much need for them to become a subject of resentment.

Resolved Question: When The Republicans Regain Control Of Congress Should They Use Reconciliation For This?
The Democrats want to use reconciliation for Health Care, does that open the door to the Republicans to use it for Anti-Abortion Laws, Gay Marriage Laws, Gays in the Military Laws, and other types of sweeping regulations? Do You think this could be a dangerous game the Democrats are playing?
Jack: The purpose of reconciliation is budget issues, not sweeping legislation, and yes, I know what I am talking about.

Resolved Question: How come the Democrats are suddenly anti-feminist and pro tobacco?
All the anti-women crap the Democrats were saying about Sarah Palin and Hillary, and Obama's "sweety" comment, plus sexual remarks and rape remarks as well as looking the other way to Obama's disgusting tobacco use.
Have the Democrats gone back to there KKK, pro-slavery backward roots?
Well if you say something about Michelle then "you be racist" but you make sexual remarks about Palins underage daughter an it's just humor apparently

Resolved Question: Why don't Republicans understand that being afraid of terrorists is just anti-American?
The Bush administration (and certain democrats) had us living in fear of the "next attack." Now Dick Cheney and the relax of the Neo-Con fear mongers are trying to keep that fear level up by saying that putting the 9-11 conspirators on trial in New York is just inviting an attack. As if NY has ever been anything but a target for Islamic extremists anyway...
We are a strong and resilient Nation. The passengers of Flight 93, the passengers that thwarted the shoe bomber and the underwear bomber, every acted out of courage, not the fear that the Republicans want us to cower below.
If we change the way we live our day-to-day lives below the assumption that some crazed extremist/reactionary, like Joe Stack, or Eric Robert Rudolph, or Bruce Edwin Ivin will act out their frustrations with the Federal government, or another Islamic terrorist will put a bomb in a truck, then the terrorists have already won.
We need to stand strong, NOT give into the fear tactics of the terrorists, or the fear mongering of chicken-hawk cowards like Cheney, Tancredo, O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck or other member of the GOP fear and smear campaign.
NO WHERE IN THIS QUESTION DOES IT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT NOT USING SECURITY!
