		<description>Doug  reguarding your post of 2:45 p.m.  I have to differ with you.  My daughter went to school with his kids, he was strange and very self serving. 

His mother was in a care home here and a friend of mine worked in the home. He never went to see her, his wife did, but he didn&#039;t.  The poor old lady told my friend that she wished he would come and take her to temple, she hadn&#039;t been in a very long time.  My friend took her to her church apologizing that it wasn&#039;t temple but at least it was a house of God. Elder Mrs. Wellstone was grateful.

It would not suprise me a bit if franken were elected that&#039;s how far down the tubes MN has gone.  There are a few of us fighting but it is hard!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I have watched minnesota go right down the tubes over the past 15-20 years…the same thing has happened to michigan and houston also. What a shame!

No kidding.  Houston is going downhill fast. The illegal immigration problem is rampant here.  Every other car has 8 people in it and paper licence plate. Our mayor wants no bounds when it comes to flooding the city with more people than we can properly deal with.  We already got hundreds of thousands of new citizens from Katrina to work in.  When coupled with the all the millions of illegals, that is a ton of people to absorb.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

Me too.  As a Minnesotan, I love the state itself, but the politics can be unbearable.  Still, not nearly as bad as San Fransisco, et al.

Also, your assessment of MN, MI, and Houston seems to be the case of America in general.</description>

		<description>DrW-&quot;that very weird senator who was killed in a plane crash as examples.&quot;
I have to take issue with you here, DrW. I am the polar opposite of Paul Wellstone politically, but I respected and liked him as a person. He wasn&#039;t weird, just passionate. 
He was a good man.</description>

		<description>What in the world happened to minnesota?

It used to be 99.99% Christian Scandinavian immigrants and a very good state to live in..


What happened?


In the last 20 years it has gone straight down hill.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that millions of somalian muslims immigrated to minnesota..followed of course by every anarchist/socialist/commie/militant gay atheist group you can find in the USA.


I have watched minnesota go right down the tubes over the past 15-20 years...the same thing has happened to michigan and houston also.  What a shame!</description>

		<description>It shouldn&#039;t be surprising, since The Left is more concerned with their result-of-the-moment than with principles.  Yes, they speak of principles with great affection and proclaim loyalty to them, but they also change principles readily.  Many do so habitually; as soon as they have done as much as they can in service of one, they look for another.  Or they get bored, or discover that this principle is no more loyal to them than the last one.  

&lt;em&gt;If you change your principles like your laundry, you have no principles.&lt;/em&gt;

This is why il-liberals give up public safety for free speech, give up free speech in the name of equality, give up equality in the name of comity and abandon comity in order to advance their next agenda item.  Of course, some do marry one cause or another; that&#039;s how you get Code Pink, the ACLU, and so many other conflicting groups that support each other because they see people with strong central principles as being a greater enemy.

And why this whole business surprises nobody except the il-liberals themselves.  The rest of us have either seen through it or just grown used to it.</description>

		<description>Yeah, no offense, Ed ... good stuff ... but not exactly news. 

Liberalism is defined by its hypocrisy. You cannot be a liberal without being a hypocrite; if you cease being a hypocrite, you won&#039;t vote liberal. 

Now if you can find one of them actually living according to the rules they preach - that&#039;d be a story. I drive by Al Gore&#039;s Nashville house every day of the week, so liberal hypocrisy doesn&#039;t much surprise me anymore.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Both Democrats seem to have gotten caught at not following the dictates of the bureaucracies they impose on others.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 

I&#039;m sure when they leave office all of the old codgers are on top of receiving their undeserved inflated pensions  dished out by the bureaucracy.

Money in pocket, easy as pie.

Money out of pocket, call my lawyer.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;You’re being wa-a-a-y to parochial here, Ed.

eeyore&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I don&#039;t think this is too parochial since, if this Franken creep wins, we&#039;ll all be subjected to him endlessly.  My opinion of the senate is so low that Franken is one of the few things that could drag it lower.  The senate is a disgusting collection of bribe takers as it is but the addition of Franken would greatly increase the amount of stupidity and lies that will be spouted from the floor.  The more people know about Franken the better.</description>

		<description>Anybody who runs a small business knows that you are required to purchase workers compensation insurance. If Franken is actually telling the truth that he didn&#039;t know, than that just shows how incompetent the man is. It also shows that he is unqualified to serve in the Senate and vote on matters that affect business since he does not even know what government burdens small business already faces. If, as I suspect, Franken simply did not want to pay the premiums for workers compensation insurance, it shows what a louse he really is. If his workers were injured on the job, Franken had no plan to protect them from lost wages or to help them with their medical bills. Franken is all for other taxpayers taking care of the &quot;little people&quot;. He just feels that he is a big shot and so the rules don&#039;t apply to him. After all, he was on television.</description>

If, as I suspect, Franken simply did not want to pay the premiums for workers compensation insurance, it shows what a louse he really is. If his workers were injured on the job, Franken had no plan to protect them from lost wages or to help them with their medical bills. Franken is all for other taxpayers taking care of the &#8220;little people&#8221;. He just feels that he is a big shot and so the rules don&#8217;t apply to him. After all, he was on television.</p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;…..Vote McCain ‘08….

adamsmith on March 7, 2008 at 10:06 AM

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The way McCain pandered on the illegal immigration issue was an utter disgrace.  If he is not willing to protect and defend America and our citizens any better than that performance, I will not pull a lever with his name on it.

The way I see it, no matter which of these three get elected, we are in for a train wreck.  The good news is it will hasten the day when a real leader will come and deal with the political mess we have now, because the country will demand it. 

I&#039;m sick of McCain telling me what we can&#039;t do on illegal immigration.  Obama says &quot;yes we can&quot;, and I say &quot;yes we can&quot; when it comes to getting rid of the illegal cheaters.

McCain wants to reward cheaters, and I don&#039;t like any cheaters in school, in sports, in business, or in immigration.  Rewarding cheating is fools folley, and McCain is knee deep in it.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Both Democrats seem to have gotten caught at not following the dictates of the bureaucracies they impose on others. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Hey, Al--  Try this argument:&lt;/em&gt; Conservatives have always opposed these bureacracies.  Is it not then hypocritical of these same conservatives to expect liberals to adhere to their asinine dictates?!

&lt;em&gt;It&#039;s just confusing enough that it might work!!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;But lefties tend to throw around nickels like man hole covers, when it comes to their own money.&lt;/blockquote&gt;   I spit out my coffee as I laughed at that one, made up for having to look at Al Freakins mug.</description>

		<description>Please read Jonah Goldberg&#039;s book &quot;Liberal Fascism&quot; for a nice history on the Progressive movement in America. You&#039;ll never look at the word &quot;Progressive&quot; the same again. Great job Jonah!!! Would love if your next book addressed Communism in the U.S. the same way.....Vote McCain &#039;08....</description>

		<description>This reminds me of a story today on HA about Schwarzenegger. Is it possible it&#039;s not just Minnesota and CA progressives that are hypocritical liars, but actually most progressives?</description>
