(3,073 posts)That this is the direct result of Bush v Gore. This is how that decision has put us where we are right now with a Supreme court that is so far removed from justice and has become so politicized, they should be impeached. Terrifying.

(1,688 posts)who thinks CU is the end of the world. A good policy would do a 1000x better than all the political ads you can run on TV. Imagine if we had a single payer that was implemented yesterday, with cost controls, this election would have been over. Add ending of the drug wars and middle east wars which will help lower the deficit and Obama will be looking at a 65%-35% victory come Nov.
Landslide with the chamber of commerce and all the rethug henchmen watching helplessly
