Dear SeekandFind, you took the words right out of my mouth. I trust them about as far as I could throw a freight train. Like Jesus said, “you will know a tree by it’s fruit”. Take us home LORD.

It would be better to capture him than to kill him.

Wouldn't that be true in both cases?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Unnecessary fear my butt. If the govt has their way we will have 10,000 drones flying overhead everyday spying on everything we do. Its a nightmare just thinking about it.

When they are doing stuff in the US that they are not doing in Russia you know you are screwed.

[Terry Mross]

First of all, if a president has the power to say he WON’T used drones on Americans, he apparently has the power to change his mind and kill anyone he wants.

I don’t call it a victory when a muslim is CIA Director.

Graham is the one who saved Clinton’s butt during the impeachment. He voted with the democrats on the most serious charge. The talking heads were shocked.

Man, I hope he got it in writing. Holder LIES about what he says as often as the LIAR IN Chief.

The man is a idiot.

That’s not even the main point. And there are exceptions to the rule.

Thankfully, this grandstanding jerk will never be President.

• ...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said. [Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften [immigration, gay marriage] stance]

• One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]

Then why did it take so long for Eric Holder to give a straightforward answer?

I think the reason why Holder gave a quick reply after the filibuster is that the filibuster got a lot of people’s attention. People woke up on this. This is the beginning.

Crystal ball time...
