San Fran values alert.
>>socialist-leaning Progressive Caucus
"leaning"- heh. That's putting it mildly.
The Progressive Caucus is the Congressional affiliate of the Democratic Socialists of America.
The efforts by the radicals to get Pelosi and a number of other Far Left female Reps in here in the Bay Area go all the way back to the 80s. There was a wave of them who got elected between 1985 and 1994.
Needle exchange????? Eeewwwww
No diabetic has ever contracted AIDS from injecting insulin, because it's legal for them to buy clean needles.
I'm against the government paying for the needles or running the program. Heroin users should pay for their own needles at private stores.
Pelosi--BARF!
Christian news and commentary at: sacredscoop.com ...
You said -- "The dems ran a lot of conservatives this time around in order to take the House and Senate. Could be some of them do not want this nutjob for speaker, only one heartbeat and a pacemaker away from the presidency."
This is the same kind of stuff (and "thinking") that was going on *before* the election, which said that we were not going to lose the House and Senate and how the Democrats were "running scared" and that Rove had his "surprise" ready and waiting. This is *all more of the same*.
It's more *denial* and it's going to work just as well as the election worked (for the Republicans).
I posted the warnings from many sources where they were saying that it looked like big-time losses (just like what did happen) -- about a month prior to the election. All I got back were denials and denials and "gobbly-gook" type of details, designed to re-inforce those denials. Those who didn't want to engage in political "gobbly-gook-speak" -- simply referred to Rove and his "surprise" (some rabbit he was going to pull out of his hat).
We can see what all that did -- absolutely nothing.
And likewise, I can see more and more -- this board is simply going the way of denial, gobbly-gook-speak, more denial and some sort of "twilight-zone-politics" designed to make the losers feel good (or "whatever").
It's going to be the same way with the Speaker of the House. I'll simply keep this thread for *reference* -- and be back again to comment on it *when* they get their Speaker of the House. THEN, we'll see what was more *reality* and what was *figment of the imagination*.

Is Anna Eshoo still in Congress?
Needle exchange programs are akin to providing free razor blades to suicidal people.
And I don't give a hootin' holler if you don't give a hootin holler.
Comprende? Good.
But what does the needle exchange program do? Let them just exist? Wow, what a life they will have.
I read your post a couple of times, but I can't seem to find an alternative. You would prefer more AIDS?
What do you think should be done? The needle exchange program gives them clean needles so they are less likely to contract HIV.
I'm against the government paying for the needles or running the program. Heroin users should pay for their own needles at private stores.

Call me a prude, but I feel the same way also. Why should the government pay to support an individual's drug addiction?
prude... : )
Too bad most democrats haven't awakened to discover the socialists have hijacked their party.
Not to sound callous, but if they already have AIDS, why do they need a needle exchange program?
