      I am a member of HCAN, and donations from members like myself paid for Marcellas and his grandmother to go to D.C. It didn't cost these rw shysters one red cent. They are the reason I support so many organizations that have helping others as their goal.

      According to the right wing, apparently, 11-year-old boys have no right to question our country's flawed healthcare system -- and if they do, it's obviously an evil Democratic plot.

      Malkin, Beck, Limbaugh: I know you'll read this, so let me say that you're all pathetic jokes and sorry excuses for human beings. And by the way, your attack on the boy is irrelevant to the state of our healthcare system. But you don't want to talk about that and never have. Hey, if rich white people have healthcare, all is just hunky dory, right? You just hate it when the less affluent put a human face on this sorry excuse for healthcare we have, don't you?

      Did anyone hear rumors that hannity may be involved in some sort of giant fraud involving his charity. They said on msnbc according to someone who is actually a right wing conservative that he stole millions from his charity. Im sure MMFA is already on the case - just wondering if this is real or not.

        There's an article at the Huffington Post about it. There've been rumors for years, about the overhead for his and Ollie north charity, but I don't think they've got the goods on him.

        Yet!

          I'm not the thread police, just wanting to head them off.
          Here's MMfA's take on it.
          Before our more conservative or wannabe conservatives start pointing fingers.

          Back to topic - I find Rush's "...your mom would have died anyway" especially heartless (but typical of Rush.)
