Hard to even respond to your drunken rant....

Not that facts matter, but first gun walking started in 2005 under W as Operation Wide Receiver.

The President that set the record for most vacation days is George W. #2 on the list of most vacation days, Reagan. Obama will never come close to the thousand plus days of vacation taken by both these men.

Czars? The President that started the position of Czar was Ronald Reagan. Bush had over 20 Czars.

It is NOT an actual title, it was actually a title assigned by a Reporter when Reagan created the position of Director of Drug Policy...It became known as Drug Czar...

Leading Administration for Corruption? Is your brain to alcohol soaked to remember Nixon? And what about the 22+ Reagan administration officials CONVICTED of crimes, the majority being crimes of fraud???

I am assuming God gave you a brain, try using it.

Wow, thanks Miss Drama! The act of letting "small fish go to get to the big fish" has been a staple of Law Enforcement for hundreds of years! When gun walking started in 2005 under Bush, then it was called Operation Wide Receiver, the thought was we needed to stop the flow of 50 to 60,000 guns a year to Mexico. The couple thousand guns that "walked" under these two operations compared to the nearly 1M guns that have gone across the border is less than a drop in the bucket!

The thought was to let Bob and Fred buy their guns, follow them to the Big buyer and shut that enterprise down.

Yes asshat, gun walking began in 2005 - 2006 as Operation Wide Receiver under Bush. But that doesn't matter to your tin foil hat sensibilities. Facts mean nothing when you are a partisan hack..

Jeeezus, Reagan had 22 member of his Administration convicted of crimes, including his Secretary of the Interior, and we know he used arms to negotiate the holding of the American hostages in Iran until after his inauguration in a little deal called Iran-Contra, and we didn't impeach him!!

One thing we know for sure that Hillary knows about Fast and Furious, she knows that gun walking started in 2006 as Operation Wide Receiver under the Bush Administration.

Guess we could bring back W and his staff to discuss how they decided to initiate the gun walking policy.

Wow, on the day before Veteran's Day, a 35 year old US Veteran shoots himself and you people CELEBRATE it as a score for the ignorant Right Wall Street apologists?

And a kid gets in a gang related fight at a Bus Terminal in downtown Oakland and it's another victory for the Wall Street first right?

Amazing...

So 50,000 Israeli's participated in an Occupy Tel Aviv protest and it's an anti-Semite movement? You people need to get brains and get outside.

Have you EVER been to Israel? What makes you think for a moment that Israel is a Democracy? In what Democracy is it law that you can only own land if you are a certain race? Where you can only work certain places based on your race or religion? Where if you are a certain race you are not free to move about the Country?

So a Flotilla is blocked, the group calls for a sit in at the Embassy, and you blindly accept that it's about OWS? If it is an anti Semite movement, why were there over 50,000 Israeli's attending an Occupy Tel Aviv protest???

Use your brain.

The whole strawman from the right blows me away! And we hate the rich? Come on. Success is the national religion, and almost everyone is a believer. Americans love winners. But that's just the problem. These guys on Wall Street are not winning – they're cheating. And as much as we love the self-made success story, we hate the cheater that much more.

In this country, we cheer for people who hit their own home runs – not shortcut-chasing juicers like Bonds and McGwire, Blankfein and Dimon.

Apparently on the right, they cheer more for the steroid driven home run hitters....

Update: The following Tuesday, she was fired from her post as a substitute teacher. LAUSD superintendent John Deasy released a statement yesterday that emphasized the district's condemnation of McAllister's remarks and announced her dismissal.

In the release, Deasy acknowledged her right as a citizen to air her views but emphasized a teacher's responsibility to serve as a role model for students.

Conversely, it was good to hear the hedge fund manager b-tching to the Washington Post that Congress needs to understand that Wall Street is their Constituency, not the Americans protesting.

Wonder why after Obama was elected every single GOP Senator, Congressman and talking head rushed to get in front of microphones to say that "it's the right of Americans to protest and they should take to the streets to express their concerns." Why was it American and patriotic to protest about what Obama MIGHT do, while it's unpatriotic to protest what actually did happen, the greatest global financial collapse in history, fueled almost entirely by greed and mismanagement on Wall Street.

Agree with the writer, ONE LINE DOES NOT THE PLEDGE MAKE.

So get off the "Under God" rants! At least the line Ellison is referencing is part of the Original Pledge and not added due to hysteria similar to the anti Muslim hysteria of today!

Then it was the 50's and the Right was ranting about the take over of the World by the Soviets and Commies, so their solution, add "Under God" to the Pledge...

How'd that fear ranting work out for you guys? Did the Commies take over the world?
