Comment on White calls on Perry to put students before politics by Tim Donovan

I am a lifelong Democarat of 30 Years (I’m now 48) yet I became a registered Independent in Aug. 2009, because the Democratic party I belonged to has become an exclusive haven for extremists: “pro-choice for abortion without restrictions”; broken promises (the President sent an additional 30,000 troops to Afghanistan despite his campaign p[ledge to “end the war NOW”; and recently allowing off-shore drilling, despite his pledge to “go green).
By the same token, as a consistent ethic of life advocate, I oppose abortion, capital punishment, and support war only in VERy limited circumstamces.. Therefore, neither the Republicans nor Democrats represent my views (particularly as one who has worked 20+ years with disabled people, which the Republicans show little interest in. Tim Donovan

It seems that Bill McCollum is doing nothing more than trying to score political brownie points.

YDA Women’s Caucus Rejects Discriminatory Amendments to Health Reform Bill
Posted in October 2nd, 2009
by Kevin Bondelli in Caucuses, YDA Takes on Health Reform
On the first day of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Young Democrats of America (YDA) Women’s Caucus announced their opposition of amendments to Sen. Max Baucus’ health reform bill aiming to marginalize women and prevent access to reproductive and maternity health care.
While the YDA Women’s Caucus supports comprehensive health insurance reform, the Women’s Caucus opposes the following:
• The rejected Hatch Amendment and any amendment that seeks to eliminate public or private plans that cover abortion care
• Any plan for reform that does not provide women with satisfactory maternity care
• Discriminatory provisions that seek to charge women who are 40 to 64 years old five times the average premium charged to younger women
In addition to ensuring that women have fair and equal access to health care, the YDA Women’s Caucus supports a health care bill that will no longer allow insurance companies to discriminate against women for “pre-existing conditions” such as C-sections and domestic violence.
“The only pre-existing condition here is the health insurance industry’s self-prescribed policy of discriminating against women,” said Rachel Farris, spokeswoman for the YDA Women’s Caucus. “But Young Democratic women are the children of baby boomers. We’re not afraid to burn our bras to influence change.”
“Equal health care rights for women are the torches that this generation has been passed from the pioneers of Roe v. Wade, and we’re prepared for the battle.”
Members of the YDA Women’s Caucus will be participating across the country in the YDA’s National Day of Service on October 20th in support of a health care reform bill that promotes women’s health.

Comment on Daschle on CBS: GOP “comeback” just a throwback to failed old ideas by rnk

Consider the source. A failed LEFT WING POLITICIAN belonging to a party that is responsible for FAILED POLICIES such as the NEW Deal (New Deal legislation PROLONGED the Depression and DID NOT end World War II!), and the Great Society, which was not so great (With the exception of much needed and long overdue Civil Rights Legislation). Daschle is a political has been and an idiot! Then again, all LEFTWING Dimwitcrats are idiots. Good luck you leftist dolts! Hope you’re enjoying the change you voted for.
