Republican Brown wins Massachusetts Senate seat

[Hardrock69]

Why do you think Obama was in such a hurry to get healthcare reform taken care of?

Well, now is the time for the Republicans to step up to the plate.

All they have done so far is try to stop the Democrats from doing anything to help America.
And have NOT come up with ANY suggestions to try to help out.

If the Democratic plans are so bad, WHERE THE FUCK IS A REPUBLICAN PLAN?

NOWHERE IN SIGHT!

So if they want to do something positive for a change, now is the time.

Though I am quite sure they are dancing around the house now, as they can continue getting huge sums of money from Corporate Healthcare Providers and Insurance Companies everywhere, and, just as with the Chimpy Administration, they can ignore the People Of The United States Of America, and they can continue to allow us all to be assraped when it comes to healthcare.

They have their chance now.

Let us see if they do anything with it.

That's the problem....The Republicans think there's nothing wrong with our Health Care System.

The Democrats even losing this one seat still have a majority and like Jon Stewart said.....they have 18 more seats than Bush had when he did whatever the fuck he wanted to.

Is it Reid and Pelosi are completely useless, yes, is it the fact that the Democrats have been whining for so many years about the Republicans that when finally given a chance to do something about it they are like......Oh shit! we spent all our time bitching and never put a plan together as to what we'd do if we actually had the power to do something.

What the fuck is in the water in Boston? This all reminds me of Dukakis in 88 and Judas IsKerryot in 2004.

Weak candidate runs a pathetic campaign, loses to someone even worse and then concedes before the fucking votes are even counted.

Ted Kennedy deserved better.

There goes Teddy's legacy being Health Care Reform

Ted Kennedy deserved better.

So did Mary Jo Kopechne.

You kill one woman and does anyone ever give you a break over it...?

So did Mary Jo Kopechne.

She sure did......

It's like a bad reflex with these Repukes

You could say that you met Ted Kennedy waiting for a cab outside the Capitol building and mentioned it was raining, and a Repuke would probably respond "Yeah, we'll too bad he didn't fucking drown in the rain. Like Mary Jo Kopechne".

On a brighter note......I can now know exactly what it was like for my grandparents, having most likely, lived through a Great Depression, myself.

Are you for real, clown?

BOSTON – Republican Scott Brown has won the Massachusetts Senate seat held for nearly a half-century by Democrat Edward Kennedy.
Brown's victory in the special election gives Senate Republicans the 41st vote they need to block legislation favored by majority Democrats and President Barack Obama.

In retrospect, it may not have been a good idea that Obama publicly backed Coakley. The general opinion right now is that it sealed her fate.
If he wanted Coakley to win the seat, he should've backed Brown.

The American citizens have sent another clear message to the current administration that yes they wanted change, but not the kind of change Obama and his cabinet want to impose. The dems have not learned a damn thing from Bush's mistakes and continue to ignore those who pay their fat bloated salaries, the Middle Class!

[Nitro Express]

It just goes to show you both Democrats and Republicans are greedy bastards. To be honest, the American public got more concerned with getting rich in .coms, living well on easy credit, consuming, and flipping real estate than paying attention to the politicians.

I wonder how many bills got passed that hardly anyone even read the bill. These people were just used to getting away with everything and they are out of touch. Now with the economy biting everybody in the ass, we are paying attention now. Now we realize the banks have fucked us, the corporations have fucked us, and the politicians don't care about us, they only care about the special interest money which of course is the banks and corporations.

[Nitro Express]

We need to break up the monopolies like we did a century ago. The healthcare prices are monopoly prices and the drug prices are monopoly prices. Sadly, much of the financial abuse happened because we repealed the laws that were put in place to avoid such. Also, our Alaskan oil is owned by British Petrolium and it isn't coming here, it's going to China and Japan. There used to be a law that said only US companies could drill Alaska and all the oil had to go to the US. We've repealed all those laws and we are being raped by the multi-national corporations.

It's a bigger issue than just healthcare and we need to pass laws to stop the abuse. Maybe instead of socialized healthcare we can take over abusive companies and break them up into competing interests using anti-trust laws as the reason to do it. It's a complicated problem and it's not going to be fixed in one big sweep.

Has Obama done anything for the American people? He gave the Federal Reserve and Wall Street a blank check. What he should have done put all the failed financial institutions under receivorship and and investigate them. Then give financial aid to institutions that look like they are salvagable but do so under strict guidelines.

Then he was supporting a horrid healthcare package that rewards the industries responsible for the high prices to begin with.

He also is esculating an unwinable situation in Iraq and Afganistahn. We are accomplishing nothing over there and it will only fuel more terrorism.

The best thing any president could do right now is set a goal to get off of oil in ten years. It would be a huge effort and it would create lots of jobs and have positive future spinoffs. The big corporations are going to not only destroy the US with their greed and stupidity but they just might set off World War III.

The Republicans better realize it's not business as usual. The Democrats blew it because they continued to march down the reward the corporate interests path. The American people are pissed and want real solutions. Not more abuse desguised as a solution. Thank's to Bush, Republicans have a real image problem but the Democrats have been such a huge dissapointment that the voters had to throw a wrench in their machine.

If this situation doesn't change the country is just going to rot away. We need real solutions instead of "taking advantage of the crises" like Rohm Immanual so smuggly remarked.
