I don't get this did he promise them that they were on the top of the agenda above the economy or something?

Its funny though and sad all at the same time. Who was it again that put the DADT policy let me see Clinton whom all of these folks supported religiously.
They can boycott and boycott their way to a republican administration.

“Aravosis made it abundantly clear over and over again that he's a racist and has lost his damned mind, just like Jane Hamscher.”

I recently learned that a dear friend of mine who is gay and black has been acosted and attacked physically because he is gay, never because he was black.

Of course, conservatives are tearing Steele up over the bit about white Republicans being scared of him (lol), which is nice.

I don't know how it's going to turn out, but I have to say that Muslim Americans are being sort of aggressive about this Fort Hood case. they're trying to get out there on tv.

Chemicals in Our Food, and Bodies

Your body is probably home to a chemical called bisphenol A, or BPA. It’s a synthetic estrogen that United States factories now use in everything from plastics to epoxies — to the tune of six pounds per American per year. That’s a lot of estrogen.

More than 92 percent of Americans have BPA in their urine, and scientists have linked it — though not conclusively — to everything from breast cancer to obesity, from attention deficit disorder to genital abnormalities in boys and girls alike.

Now it turns out it’s in our food.

Consumer Reports magazine tested an array of brand-name canned foods for a report in its December issue and found BPA in almost all of them. The magazine says that relatively high levels turned up, for example, in Progresso vegetable soup, Campbell’s condensed chicken noodle soup, and Del Monte Blue Lake cut green beans.

The magazine also says it found BPA in the canned liquid version of Similac Advance infant formula (but not in the powdered version) and in canned Nestlé Juicy Juice (but not in the juice boxes). The BPA in the food probably came from an interior coating used in many cans.

Should we be alarmed?

if some Black folks decided they want to go on vacation and hiking, in say, THE CONGO, and got 'falsely arrested', what kind of outcry would there be?

The CITIZENS can do what the F*CK they want to in this country. The CITIZENS tell the govt. what to do. The CITIZENS make demands not the politicians.

He better open up them rest stops and fix the potholes on the interstates before even pronouncing the word “spa.” Those rest area better be open and running (and NOT with prison labor) by April 16, 2010.

I am convinced people like misery. Their actions are self defeating. The health care reform debate is being taken over by an abortion debate.
PBO, someone who states he wants to help gay people is being demonized by gays.
WTF!
