Deep Within the AutumnForest

We have some serious housecleaning to do. That's for sure. Yeah, I'll hold my breath on that one....

No one in our government - both sides of the aisle - has any right to even mention "Support the Troops".

This government has proven by their actions (or lack there of) that they don't give two flips about our soldiers no matter what words they mouth for the cameras.

I realize this isn't a 'new' problem, but this current government has done nothing to try to fix this problem either. Especially while they are adding to it by their policies overseas.

Impeach en toto!

Thanks MO. Wonder if bush has a ribbon on his limo?

Neither side has done crap that is true because one side stalls the other.In this House and Senate we have today its the your not gonna one-up me buddy system which is very stagnant and smells.I agree they all need to go and we start fresh."The Left" I am talking about is the ones who wish to put the great Obama in the big chair and change the world.Socialized Medicine,Free Community Collage,take from rich and give to the poor,my ass.Just call yourself what you really are SOCIALIST.Thats "The Left"I speak of.

This is part of why I want ALL incumbants to lose their jobs. It's the only weapon we have left.

Hussain Obama is the only hope to save the free world.


Without CHANGE we are lost.


Woe is Us!!!


The SKY has fallen and we are all on the path to perdition.WOE!!!!WOE!!!! WOE is ME!!!

hehehehehehehe..... Woe is Us is right.

cont
Persons within the United States seeking to trade key US energy commodities – US crude oil, gasoline, and heating oil futures – are able to avoid all US market oversight or reporting requirements by routing their trades through the ICE Futures exchange in London instead of the NYMEX in New York.
Is that not elegant? The US Government energy futures regulator, CFTC opened the way to the present unregulated and highly opaque oil futures speculation. It may just be coincidence that the present CEO of NYMEX, James Newsome, who also sits on the Dubai Exchange, is a former chairman of the US CFTC. In Washington doors revolve quite smoothly between private and public posts.
In January 2006 when the CFTC allowed the ICE Futures the gaping exception, oil prices were trading in the range of $59-60 a barrel. Today some two years later we see prices tapping $120 and trend upwards

Hilariously, the bushits are already showing that "The Buck Stops Here", to them meaningless since 2001, will suddenly be as important as it was from 1993 to 2000 if Obama is elected. The rose colored glasses will be out of style, for awhile anyway.

hehehehehehehe.... But, I'm a girl. Bitching is what I do best Neanderthal!

Good points. Except your ideas are based on having an accurate vote count. Unfortunately, that isn't the case.

I'd like to think eventually we will get a government that can cut through all the red tape surrounding our Veterans and actually treat them like they shouldn't have just died on the battlefield. Perhaps if every single politician had a son or daughter in the military they would make their care a priority?

Heck, how many of our Vets are still battling over Agent Orange? Why not hold Monsanto culpable? Gee, do those musings make me a potential terrorist for wanting to hold a corporation accountable for their products?

Let's not forget Depleted Uranium. That will be causing massive problems for our troops and their future children. But, you don't hear about it in the corporate news do you?

It's time our government treated our Veterans like the brave, honorable men & women they are and not freaking cannon fodder. It sucks!

I'm glad somebody mentioned that there is more than the two parties! There are more than two candidates as well. The media seems to have just written off the other parties and candidates and therefore the people don't even realize who is running.

I'm under the impression that this is the most profitable campaign ever for both Democrats and Republicans since the media has provided almost all of the coverage for free. I've only seen a very few adds paid for by the McCann campaign and only one add paid for by the Obama campaign. And it has been well publicized that Obama has made more money in contributions than ever before in America's history. Wonder what he'll do with all that dough?

The issue with our Vets goes way back. Perhaps if so much money were not being spent on health and welfare for non-american citizens we could spare some for those men and women who have made this country a place those individuals want to come too. I don't have any issue with folks immigrating here but I do insist that they work towards citizenship and pay taxes prior to receiving free benefits that should be reserved for the tax paying citizens.

All girls don't B....

Politicians loose site of the plight of the working citizen due to the fact that they have the very best benefits including retirement and health insurance. So why would they care about the working folks?

There is so much good input on this blog, it's impossible to cover it all on one post. Perhaps the best approach is to underscore the root cause of this national tragedy. The "cause" comes directly from the top of the armed services medical chain of command..."the buck stops here." Why not the top government officials you ask; it's because our top "officials" can not be held accountable for their inaction.

Until the labyrinth of bureaucratic stagnation is restructured, this national shame will go on forever. In its current form, it is the prime example of socialized medical care gone mad. Take heed because the same fate awaits all American citizens if and when National Health Care is enacted into law.
