How do we turn back the power of the Corporations to dominate the government?

And reclaim Lincoln's vision of government of, by and for the people.

Natural people, NOT artificial people.

Thanks Kate the time is correct now.

Can you ask them to stick around. Or can someone else ask them for me how the hell people who order and commit torture which results in death are not even being charged when under US law that crime carries the death penalty or at the least life in prison? This is one of the most serious crimes listed in US legal code and yet it isn't being enforced! WTF?

Don'tcha know, the court system is way too busy filling for-profit jails up with folk who smoke the devil's own weed. Until the unspeakable scourge of marihuana is eradicated from the face of the planet there will be no attention paid to trivialities like torture, mass murder and other war crimes.

Jeez, Terrible, where's your perspective? Get a grip, man.

I went and forgot about the Devil! Better get my ass to the Talibanvangical Church ASAP! Wouldn't want those corporate jail CEO's and investors hurting for cash!

It says, "And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so."

I love hitting the right wing Bible thumping wackos with this one...They always say, "Humina, humina, humina..."

But seriously, I'd like to ask Rep. Sestak and Mr. Lamont how they feel about the Obama Administration's recent ruling regarding states rights on medical marijuana and most specifically how California law should be handled in 2010 if it passes a law LEGALIZING MARIJUANA AND TAXING IT.

..BUT, YES please ask why we haven't persued torture investigations with more vigor and then have them and all the rest of the Politicians read this:

Effing makes me cry!
Where is the United States of America?

Sirs,
I support an Nuremburg 2.0 and nothing less.

How do you purpose to do to address this, our major problem, the Torture/ Murder and cover up of this vile behavior, has changed our country to the only one promoting and applying torture as routine.
ENOUGH glad handling WAR CRIMINALS such as dick cheney!

Anything less is a shameful disgrace.

I'm off to milk the moo's. Will check in when I get back to see if Sestak or Lamont have anything meaningful to say about that.

:p?

Why's his tie red? And where's his flag pin?

Those are my questions

)O(

When can we restore Civil Rights and privacy with no data sweeps, wire taps, listening into lawyer/client interviews in prison, habeus corpus etc?

And has the Patriot Act entirely replaced the War Powers Act of 1973?

And is it already too late for HR 676?

And can we bring back the Fairness Doctrine in broadcast and include cable.

And can we have a new version of the Glass Stegall Act, a revocation of Gramm, Leach, Bliley, and a reversal of the Garn St Germain Act, as well as the McCarran Ferguson Act?

And even though it was a Supreme Court Case from 1886 cam we place restrictions on the Santa Clara County vs Southern Pacific Railroad?

And what about viable Campaign Finance Reform? Since when did conservatives accept the concept of symbolic speech as per Tinker v Des Moines?

Sorry for so many questions and so many Ands but I'm at work and can't participate, and soon have my 1.5 hour trip home.

Is Obama the anti-Christ and when will the GAWD-fearing gun-lovin white folks get their country back?

(/snark)

appreciate the work that these men are doing and to keep up the good work. Thanks for being a voice of the people and keep on speaking the truth.

To second Yas...

And can we have a new version of the Glass Stegall Act, a revocation of Gramm, Leach, Bliley, and a reversal of the Garn St Germain Act, as well as the McCarran Ferguson Act?

Ditto.

How about getting out of the WTO altogether and start implementing trade sanctions for goods and services that we can make in this country so we can put this country back to work?

It appears that the Stock market is going into bubble mode again... The Dems are going to get blamed for the coming Depression if they don't do what Roosevelt did to re-regulate the banking industry.

Are investigative journalism, respect for truth and real debate gone forever in America?

Or is there something that can be done to stop the corporate monopolization of the media?

at what price will diesel fuel be too expensive for farmers to make a profit? This seems to me to be our biggest challenge, feeding the world with $8 diesel fuel.
