The phrase in the headline was shouted by the keynote speaker Larry Kilgore, at a Texan who was a supporter of health care reform.
Because Republicans never do anything like that, especially on the day of Kennedy’s memorial service.
Inhofe could take a lesson from this guy, you want to fire up the base? Joke about hunting Obama like an animal. With a gun.
The first thing anyone would notice about this outrageous liar’s hateful ranting is how it seems to be, in this atmosphere, endorsing violent treason. But I’d also like to point out that even though he is saying this, his fans are going to be sorely disappointing in Jim Inhofe himself, when he refuses to lift a finger to help in this “revolution.” He’s a tough-talking coward who will never make a tangible move to back up his treasonous, anti-American rhetoric.
Check out Howard Beale as he cries into his “purity of essence” flouridated water.
The lovely story behind the guy carrying an AR-15 in Arizona to the Obama event.
At this hour Ted Kennedy’s casket is in a huge motorcade to Boston. This was the Senator two years ago, speaking in the US Senate in January 2007 as the Republicans tried to block the first raise in the minimum wage in a decade. I highly recommend that you take the time to watch these, they are much more valuable and informative than another rehash on the tube about the glamour of either of his brothers who were killed, or any of the other “Camelot” stuff that will be on the tube in the next few days. Ted Kennedy joined the Senate in 1962 and has been there passing legislation that favors most working people, for a time period that has spanned the whole life so far of 186 million Americans. It may be a long time before we see speeches like this again in the US Congress, and they are needed.
From July 2007, this is Senator Kennedy on health care and the obstruction of legislation to help Americans. Kennedy sponsored the bill that finally got mental health care treated by the federal government as being on the same level as other kinds of care for the first time.
Read this so you can remember when there used to be both a Boston Globe and a Ted Kennedy. Here’s what his longtime colleague Vice President Joe Biden said.
Here is the eulogy that Ted Kennedy gave for his brother Bobby Kennedy after his assassination in 1968, which I think is appropriate now as well.
The ghost of Orval Faubus is smiling somewhere. Of course don’t count on expatriates Bill and Hillary to ever lift a finger to educate the people of their state. The significant political difference between Oklahoma and Arkansas is that the Republicans in Arkansas have a (D) in front of their names.
