Gee, what could be more surprising…a regressive tax on “sin”…sounds like a Repunk dream and indeed it was.

Where have you been this year, muckhead? Bonehead Boehner, a Republican, is not House Majority Leader? Or are you so senile that you forgot which party won the 2006 election?

You’d better take it first, suckdog. Pete’s telling the truth. Bush is happily murdering american soldiers for oil profits, and nobody should ever join the armed forces while republicans are around. republicans can’t be trusted with national security, that’s always been the case. cowards and liars, otherwise known as republicans, don’t have any ability to defend the USA. 9/11=Bush failure!

Having him on the side of the angels will only besmirch the angels!

There was no outrage from his fellow Democrats in 2003 when Stark hurled an obscenity referring to homosexuality at a Republican Ways and Means member during a legislative mark-up.

• Silence was also the reaction when Stark said California state welfare director Eloise Anderson would “kill children if she had her way” in 1999.

• Nor was there a peep out of his party colleagues when in 1995 Stark called then-Republican Rep. Nancy Johnson a “whore” for insurance companies, and that her knowledge of health care came via “pillow talk.”

• Not even the Democrats’ Congressional Black Caucus complained when in 1990 Stark called President Bush’s black HHS Secretary Louis Sullivan “a disgrace to his race.”

But during Thursday’s House floor SCHIP debate, he managed to outdo most of his past venomous gaffes. Stark said Congress was going “to blow up innocent people if we could get enough kids to grow old enough for you to send to Iraq to get their heads blown off for the president’s amusement.”

House Majority Leader John Boehner of Ohio said Stark’s outburst dishonors “the thousands of courageous men and women of America’s armed forces” and he called on him to retract his remarks and apologize to the House, the commander in chief, and the families of our overseas forces.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s official Web site once stated that “Pelosi has pledged to restore integrity and civility to the People’s House and preside over the most honest and open Congress in history.”

If Pelosi really believed those words about civility and integrity, she would take away Stark’s plum senior seat on the Ways and Means Committee. She and other House Democratic leaders will soon find that reacting with cowardly silence to someone who would insult U.S. troops will not be an option for them. ”

More on “Crazy” Pete Stark. Somebody needs to give Pete a senility test!

Truly, Barnes is the most obtuse unit I have ever beheld.

Krauthamer is a smart SOB, though. I know his politics are right wing, but dumb he is not.

Kick Pelosi out. She’s with ‘em.

a mischaracterization at best, a bullshit lie at worst.

I watched O’Reilly and Hume, with a proviso that the first lie, off goes the show. I did that several times, never once got beyond the first ten minutes, not once, with either one. they ahve soeripously hurt democracy and free speech in htis country, and the court case giving them free rein to lie was it. Not only do they lie, they spent a lot of money to fight for their right to lie. Nobody should watch them, and anybody that believes them is either a fool or an enemy of our country. Take your pick.

yes, she did… explained the whole incident during the first segment of her show when she came back on wednesday…

it would be best if you heard it yourself, though…
her show is podcast… start here… lots of interesting and informative “homework” at her site also… should keep you quite busy…

Possibly, Mitch, but then again, anyone on TP who isn’t left of Kucinich or at least sympatico with him is considered far right.

The most lefty types on Fox are Ellis Hennigan and Juan Williams. I don’t watch Hannity and Combs cause it is too painful, I guess Combs is a lib, but he is a “Happy Lib”, collaborating with the enemy by talking with them and taking their dime.

Honestly now – how many of you watch Fox, ever? I listen to Air America, at least I did before the radio in my car died. I watch Olberman, it hurts but I do it…do any of you watch Brit Hume or O’Reily or do you just assume the worst and believe everything you read on MediaMatters?

Comment by Keltoi at Night — October 19, 2007 @ 8:06 pm

Bwahahaha. “Number of people on the left” is true is by “on the left” you mean, “not as far right at Pat Buchanan.” There is NO ONE employed by FoxNews that can honestly be characterized as “on the left.”

Comment by Ret. Col. Jack Ripper — October 19, 2007 @ 8:03 pm

This is what passes for “criticism of Bush”:

“Bush is not being tough enough on them immigrants.”

“Bush should quit farting around and just invade Iran!”

’nuff said

Is that some kind of a joke?

Comment by Ret. Col. Jack Ripper — October 19, 2007 @ 8:03 pm

No! Honest, Colonel, I know O’Reilly is anathema to folks on TP, but I have heard him rip Bush on a variety of issues. Dead serious, I don’t lie, I have heard it.

Fox really does employ a number of people on the left. I would agree that they are the most conservative of the cable nets, but they are not monolithically so.

Out of curiosity, did she give her version of what happened with her getting hurt earlier this week? Heard from the cops, heard from her lawyer….did she say anything?
