With around 60% of the American people opposing this reform there will be a price and I hope to god it's so high that the Democratic Party is left in a marginal position. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2411413/posts#comment Sun, 20 Dec 2009 00:41:29 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2409739/posts With a mere investment of $780,000 Soros and his allies were able to suborn free elections in the states of Montana, West Virginia, Missouri, Oregon, in 2008, and in Minnesota, Ohio, New Mexico, Nevada and Iowa, in 2006. How did he achieve so much with so little? He founded a 527 group which funded candidates in one kind of race in which the victor has the most influence over election integrity, and in which there is so little political competition: the Secretaries of State.

Yesterday the Republicans on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform held a forum to discuss ACORN and urge the Attorney General to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Democratic Party's favorite criminal enterprise.

Many of the elected representatives within the Democratic Party are no longer following in the time-honored footsteps laid down by the founding fathers of our great Nation.

Her Purple Rain outfit inspired by musician Prince was great, Klobuchar explained, but she lost the costume contest to someone dressed as a bathroom wall. Klobuchar’s legislative director, sitting in the front row, shook her head at the digression. “No?” Klobuchar asked, turning to the staffer, who kept shaking her head.

By David Kahane It’s too bad that Michael Mann’s latest film, Public Enemies, was more or less a flop at the box office — budgeted at $100 million, it’s grossed about $93 mil domestically, which means that Johnny Depp or no Johnny Depp, it’s not going to earn out — because if ever the time was right for a great gangster film, it’s now.

The Democratic chair's myopic "no matter what" support of President Obama's policy toward Israel is wrong for the United States, the future of Jewry in America, and Israel.
