If we want to talk about fear. The AP puts 11 people to read a book(Palin) about 400 pages. They put 2 people cover the healthcare bill. Over 1000 pages written language not meant to understand. That is balance. What is feared most?

joe r. boo!. Stop the drib, drab drivel epistle of "joe r." version of the facts. You can make all the false accusations and statements you want which only makes you irrelevant to the conversation. Again, look behind you , the crowd has thinned fast and the support you once had in January, 2009 has evaporated. People are seeing thru the takeover of this country by people who want control, not anything beneficial to all of Americans. The American people are seeing this country go down the wrong direction but you seem to have blinders on. Your solution to problems is to reply with accusations based on the past. We can't do anything to correct the past but we sure do not want the mistakes that are occurring now.

Joe- Ya I'm radical. I blame Rush for a 84 million dollar hogwash priogram. I refuse to down the Iraq and Libby thing again we have been there enough times. You cannot take blame for anything and changing the subject is your shallow way of handling this. Lets rush this healthcare bill through now becuse we need it so bad. Pay for it now. Start it in 2013. Makes sense to me. Haha I'm Radical

Bob K maybe you need to open your mind and your eyes because I never made any predicitions that can even be remotely on the scare tactic side. I made one predicition and that would be Obama would win the presidency. Bob K it was you who backed McCain and Palin, and it is you and those you follow such as Rush, Beck, Hannity that guide you as you enforce some of these scare tactics. Also Bob K, NORAD rebuffed Palins false claims of airspace violations. Now we are being told one of Palins accounts written in her book of hunting from a helicopter, have been said to be false by the AP which states her accounts don't match some of the facts she has written. Now whether the AP is wrong, I think Palin would have been better off writing fiction. She seems to be better at making up stories then anything else. Sam I may be on the left, but no way am I radical like yourself, who hears whatever oxy Rush tells you, and believes it. Sam you talk of lies, lets see the war of lies, who was behind this? How about the coverup involving Libby? Who claimed Obama was running with terrorists, and is a Muslim? Who sent out the pathedic emails against Obama, time and time again until he was elected? How about the coverup involving our beloved private military company Blackwater, who was accused of gunning down innocent civilians in Iraq? One of the better lies was Mission accomplished, and where are we still? Also when you speak of using tax payers money what is your take on the 150 billion we have been giving Pakistan? How about all the money sent to Iraq over the last five years, not including the military costs. OMG can we say GOP hypocrisy? Sam you have little to stand on but your countless accusations, so just let our president work his term.

joe r. it is a government site put out by the Recovery.gov people who are in the administration of President Barrack Obama. When you get enough spine to admit your side of the aisle is somehow not telling the truth, then people will probably believe you. Until then everyone believes you post nothing but drivel "facts" , made up by you, which have no authenticity nor honesty. You have the gall to accuse people who post facts and links of not telling the truth. joe r. get real, you are nothing but a scaremonger trying to convince yourself and those who surround you as having the truth. Sorry to tell you but everyone can see thru your facade and deceit. Until you have something to say that is fact or truth, people will ignore you. Better look behind you, joe, the ranks are getting thin as only about 20% of the people believe you and they have been brainwashed.

It is funny to listen to liberals back away from thier lies. If it was the GOP they would know every fact but now they have not even heard of this. Why would one blame Rush? Yes this whole thing of tracking "saved or created" jobs cost the tax payers 84 million dollars. For hogwash. The created jobs are almost all public sector jobs. Which means tax payers must pay for them as well. The created jobs can be tempory and many are lasting for even one week. If you add the interest to the stimulies bill it was over one trillion dollars. Do you see why so many were against now? Now some wonder why we don't want to turn over one fifth of our economy(healthcare) over to these same folks.

Bob K you have been the finger pointer even before Obama became the president, and like others on the right I recall you running around repeating the scare tactics. I can honestly say that you and others of your far right party have been on the one-sided track for some time now. Bob K you work the internet looking for whatever negativity enforces your opinion, but I can also find just as many positives on Obama when I search, and some of it contradicts your find. Bob K your also the guy who tunes into oxy Rush because it continues to feed your far right ego. Things must get lonely for you especially when the scare tactics never come to be, it just makes you work harder to try and prove a mute point. The president is here until 2012, and Palin can write 100 more books, and nothing will change, except she can throw more gernades, as she steps on more landmines. Bob K did you even buy her book, or are you waiting for it to be discounted in a month or so?

bob d., your party has control of the Senate, House and the Administrative branches. They are reporting the information - all we can do is question the authenticity, correctness,and honesty which seems to follow pretty much the Dem/Liberal way of running government. Pretty much the same of the comments attributable to you. If you cannot tell how many congressional districts Minnesota has, wow, civics class must have been a no brainer for you. Based on your comments bob d., I can now see how they counted those absentee ballots in the last Senate Race.
