Obama biggest recipient of BP cash

[scooterbug44]

Don't get me wrong, I love Obama and am INCREDIBLY glad that McCain/Palin are not in charge. That twit took time off from spreading her blatant lies to proclaim that she still thinks we should keep drilling in the Gulf.

I HATE that SC decision - anyone who thinks corporations and special interests didn't ALREADY have too much influence is drinking the Kool-aid.

I love that Obama is having a special commission investigating this spill - and no politicians or government employees can be involved!

Yes, he took a strong position on this. I, and many Americans, believe he should reveal his campaign contributors' books - practice what you preach kinda' thing. I still think the voters will have a stronger position than the Supreme Court decision, however. Rise, Independents!

Lynnie, Do you know the problem with electing Independents? The real independents don't want to belong to a group! They want to be different, like everybody else. Some will even switch from the other two parties in order to attempt to get elected.

 

[Lynnie]

Yes, the Independents will be born from Democrats and Republicans. But, this birth needs to take place if we will have a balancing third party of any consequence in future elections.

Rand Paul is an independent (libertarian) running on the republican ticket who may well end up in Congress. In addition to his win in the Kentucky primary, a number of encuments got knocked out recently, including that party switching snake in the grass Specter. Change is a comin' this November!

The republican establishment in Kentucky found out last night that they aren't as powerful as they thought they were!!!

Specter deserved that, IMHO. Here come the Independents! Very exciting!
How long do you think before a Presidential primary/caucus for The Independent Party? Think 2012 is too early? If not, certainly by 2016, we will have three parties! Wahoo~~~~~

I think that Specter would have been easier to beat in November but I sure am glad that he lost. Another establishment candidate goes down the swamp drain

So a politican is still an independent if they run on the republican (or democratic) ticket?
