Senator Scott Brown is on defense, desperately trying to hold off challenger Elizabeth Warren in Massachusetts. In their second debate, Brown defended his allegations against Warren for her claimed Native-American heritage. Watch it.
Iraq was all about oil, and guess what. We didn't get the oil. Many of the Iraqi oil wells were blown up by pissed off Iraqi tribal factions because of our occupation of their country. Bush, Powell, Rice and Co lied to the United Nations and to the Congress to get us into that war.
Ron, I never bought that "he tried to kill my Daddy" line that W thrust upon us. His Daddy has tried to kill alot of people too in all his CIA black ops and fun and games.
It has also been proven that the first Gulf war was started by a false premise of supposed Iraqis invading Kuwait and throwing babies out of incubators. It has been proven since to be a complete lie. The Kuwaiti woman claiming to have witnessed this turned out to be the Kuwaiti ambassador's daughter. Look it up.
Former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara in a book written before his death, admitted that the Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened. It was a made up lie to get us into the war.
And people wonder why I don't believe 9/11.

Linda I have put that behind me but these people in the gop=tea baggers sent our younth to war and then by the actions do the same thing that was done to the viet nam era vets. I think this is worst as these people went to war because we were attacked and they wanted to protect the country. People should think of the morals and values these people have by their actions toward the vets,. Bush put us into two wars one I was in favor of as I knew if we didnt act we would be attacked again, but the second one I knew as fake from day one , You dont go to war over something that was proven false and gw bush saying he wanted to rid us of the man that tried to kill my daddy. Well we got him and at what cost. The gop=tea party cheer for war but dont go themselves and then spit on the men and women who do go to fight for our country but denying them care and jobs.

Ron thank you for your service to our country and I am so sorry that anyone could be callous enough and coldhearted enough to show you disrespect.
Re Scott Brown, I can remember dating a guy or two (jerks) who used that same smartass line on me "I'm not one of your students". Idiot men say stuff like that when they feel threatened by anyone better educated or in a position of superiority over them, as Ms. Warren I believe has a slight lead in the polls and is obviously better educated. He's really showing his true colors, and using race baiting and thinking it will gain him an advantage, probably a fatal blow to his campaign.

I love all of your remarks, and totally agree. I think both, Cantor, and Brown are aware that they could be in trouble, so what do they do, they, double down on the rederick to try to save their sorry asses, nothing else! I Nothing, would please me more, then, to see them lose, big, right along with Bachmann, and the deadbeat Dad Walsh from Ill., and Allan West -Fl, and a few others. This election is all not only about the 47%, and jobs, and helping the country, but it is also about the Supreme Court, and who will replace some of the aging judges, and there are three of them in there now!

My high school math teacher, Mrs. Barton, would have grabbed Scott Brown by the ear and marched him to the Principals office for a little quality time for being such a wise ---! I hope the voters in Mass will give him a little time out for being a ----- and shilling for Wall Street.

Linda the old saying is old men declare war, but the young men fight the war. I think only a few of the men that are rattling the sabers for war with Iran have never spent a day in uniform. It is easy to have others do you fighting while you are sitting on you fannies living a good safe life. These men and women who vote for war then vote against fully funded bills for the vets and cutting funds for the VA are the most ungrateful jerks I can think of. I have said I served 63-68 USAF and was lucky and didnt go to asia, but I was spit on and called names, but I find what is happening to todays vets a bigger disgrace. These men and women call these young people HEROS and Patriots, and then wave the flag in our faces while kicking all the men and women who are serving or have serve no matter when or where in the fanny. This to me shows them for what they are tratiors to the service people and to this country as they dont follow oath they take. The people who support the rightwing are adding to this disgraceful as they do the samething.
Sandy I must disagree with you about the repubs and tea bagger view on women. They dont disrespect women who are independent and educated the FEAR THEM as they wont be good littles wifes and servants to them. You notice how all the gop tea bagger women look alike. Have you heard of the Stepford Wifes!!!
just my humble view

I would love to see every one of these arrogant SOB Congressmen defeated by someone who was sent to fight the wars that they voted for, then turned their backs on the veterans when they come back home. Either that or be defeated by a woman. It would serve every one of them right. They have shown no respect for veterans or women either one. God knows we need more women in Congress but I would love to see more veterans there too. Then maybe these jerks wouldn't be so trigger happy and stop their macho saber rattling.

Cantor and Brown are part of the three stooges John #3. These men have sold their souls to the greed of the wealthy and corporations. They have records and now they are trying to hide them. They both follow the party line which is dictated by the likes of rove and kochs. and the people who they say they serve be damned. Brown is about as independent as romney and ryan.

I jjust don't know how 18% could still be "undecided". Perhaps it's time to quit pandering to the wishy washy. To me the choice has never been clearer. Dump the tea in the harbor, and turn the ship to the left. Today's Republicans are paid shills for their wealthy donors. They sure as hell don't care about the lower classes, and have made that abundantly clear. Vote for the wealthy, or vote to bring the middle class back from the ashes. What's to decide?

I agree as I watched both of them last night. There's an arrogance about them that makes them feel privileged and entitled. I couldn't believe it when Brown spoke over Warren saying that he wasn't one of her students. This guy has a real disrespect for her as she's an educated woman. In fact, all the Repub men have a disrespect for women unless they're air-heads like Ann Coulter and those on FOX News.
