      If every show required facts, the Right wingers would never be on television.

      This is the new RNC talking points to defeat Health Care, I think they feel it targets their Christian base, but it's totally untrue, not that the facts mean anything to them.

      It's just their next tactic to defeat Health Care Insurance reform.

      Have an idea GOP... contribute to our national discourse, but instead they are like a six year old child just saying No

      Dylan's show has become must view stuff for me, I love it when he takes down people like that anti-choice nutter.

      A Center for Family Resource Council for American Values talkbot telling a lie?

      It's what they do. It's all they do. Any lies (or murder, in some cases), is justified as long as the mass of cells is saved.

        Sharpe --

        Your kidding, right?

        If carrying a fetus is harmful to the mother and fetus - that is, it will kill her and the fetus - then an abortion is non-elective.

        I guess one could argue that if the mother wants her and the fetus to die, then she could "elect" to not have an abortion. But, then putting a gun to her head and pulling the trigger would get the same result, just faster.

      Any organization with "family" or "values" in it's name is guaranteed to be a right-wing organization.

      I'm wondering if they've actually trademarked those words.


      Good for you, Ratigan. Call it as you see it. Too bad more hosts don't call it like this.
