Members DRW50 Posted January 22, 2013 Members Share Posted January 22, 2013 Ron Fournier, who has moved his agenda from AP to National Journal, gets the divide and conquer ready. The media loves this type of story, so we may hear a lot more of it. http://www.nationaljournal.com/thenextamerica/politics/will-obama-s-nod-to-gay-rights-irk-black-backers-20130121 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted January 22, 2013 Members Share Posted January 22, 2013 I think this article is hilarious. It's been blowing up all over the social media sphere about Michelle Obama, a goddess, rolling her eyes at Boehner. She should've punched him IMO. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/michelle-obama-rolls-eyes-john-boehner-sets-internet-222930624--politics.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted January 22, 2013 Members Share Posted January 22, 2013 Barack seemed to be laughing at the time she did it... so to me, her eye roll probably was one that meant "Men!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 Georgia senator Saxby Chambliss is retiring. This was a surprise, but the seat will likely stay Republican. http://www.politico.com/story/2013/01/saxby-chambliss-to-reitre-86720.html?hp=f3 I'll always remember him for the ugly ads he ran against Max Cleland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 31, 2013 Members Share Posted January 31, 2013 This makes me very angry. If this passes, there are few better ways to guarantee teenagers will kill themselves. http://thinkprogress.org/lgbt/2013/01/30/1514051/dont-say-gay-tennessee/?mobile=nc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Money Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 So what are people's takes on immigration reform since it's been thrust to the spotlight again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AdelaideCate007 Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 While they're working on the illegal immigration issue, they need to also work on the legal immigration issue. Trying to stay in the US as a legal immigrant is an extremely tedious process and getting a green card and then trying to become a citizen is an even worse issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 RIP Ed Koch. He was a great Mayor, often very funny, and a perfect fit for NY. He had political foes as varied as Jesse Jackson and Rudy Guiliani. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 I dunno if Jesse Jackson was so much a foe as someone Ed Koch ruthlessly attacked for no reason... Ed Koch definitely had a sense of humor I find appealing but I find he is being whitewashed to an annoying extent now that he's dead. An era of politics that is bizarrely so recent but seems so long ago. When war-crippled Democrats and people who actually served could be easily swift-boated as un-American by Republicans who did not serve and refused to defend themselves. I am happy that era has passed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
