Barbara Boxer is indeed a complete bitch. She is proud of it (remember how she treated the Exon CEO). Any attempt to shame her is wasted effort. Unfortunately her constituents elect her for that very reason, after all, they provide the porch she lays under.

Since trying to reason with her is not a viable option and thinking she won't continue in office is no more than wishful thinking, the only solution is to fill the Senate with enough people of integrity as to render her totally ineffective.

The 2nd amendment is NOT a privilege; it is a right. Hence the term "Bill of Rights". Maybe you should sign up for Level 1 classes.

While I would very much support every citizen being better versed in civics, any restriction is an "infringement' As I read it, I have the right to hold and bear arms without restriction (includes a cannon, if I want).

Yes! PETA would NEVER suggest a couple adopt a baby (human) - well, maybe if it's a homosexual couple, that's OK.

They're pretty close now. What do you think the abortion issue is all about?

Why didn't PETA go after Biden? Oh yeah, he's a Democrat-can do no wrong. It;s not that Joe should have gone to a shelter to get his dog, it's that the breeder should not have existed to tempt poor old Joe into doing wrong.

These were not Performance bonuses, but Retention bonuses. Do you see the difference?

Put this in perspective - 165 million is 1/1000 of 170 billion (chump change - we're the chumps). The feigned outrage over the AIG bonuses is primarily a ruse to get (keep) people riled up and suspicious of business. If you gave your neighbor $1000 to bail him out of a financial mess, would you really be all this upset that he spent a dollar on a lottery ticket (and you knew he intended to buy the ticket to boot)? It's just "much ado about nothing".

What's scary about this is the action of government to punish individuals for breaking rules that didn't exist. For politicians to use their power to force the citizens to comply with arbitrary rules weather stated or not (remember the threats against The Exxon Mobil chairman for daring to oppose the party line in the global warming ruse).

To say the politicians are hypocrites (scum was a much more accurate description) is like saying a snake crawls on it's belly. Certain politicians (their names are legion) have committed acts so outrageous and heinous as to be criminal. They are the ones who should pay with their careers, at least.
