The Party of NO

[bentley williams]

I find it sad that the ordinary citizen boo birds from each party are doing exactly what they claim to be so frustrated about by their elected representatives - calling names and acting like children, doing nothing constructive and thus being part of the problem instead of the solution. This has been going on for decades while the wealth, life, and spirit of our nation is being sucked dry by corporate vampires. Vampires who own the political machine.

It is so transparent that the folks on this forum attacking each other have no mind of their own (cue the outrage) and are re-spewing the manure they are told, so easily manipulated by political spin masters. And don't blame the media for swallowing the garbage fed them by the political machine and then crapping it out into the trough if you are lined up at that trough gobbling it down.

The ultimate irony is that these fools regurgitating the crap think they are the enlightened ones because they are part of the media charade. The same media that is telling them they are the smart ones for listening to them.

Bottom line - our educational system has failed us because that is ultimately what the corporations and their power-hungry political lackeys want. America has become ignorant cattle so easily manipulated and hoodwinked. This is what you should be outraged about.

Saved by the other party of.....NO

Congressional Republicans are holding fast to their role as the party of NO. After their failure to act on Health Care, they are fighting like their Country Club memberships were at stake, to prevent any meaningful action on the Health Care Reform bill now before Congress. After refusing to be a part of the process and progress of the Bill, they are now in a snit claiming they don't know what's in the bill. I am so tired of immature, adolescent men dominating our legislative branch of government....

Let see, the democrats are trying to pass a bill that:

1) forces every american under threat of punishment into purchasing something from private industry.
2) places the entire middle class on a medical form of welfare.
3) expands entitlements that currently threaten the financial stability of every state and the federal government.
4) balloons the current federal budget.
5) provides very little actual reform in an industry that seriously needs it.

..and you're complaining about... the republicans? :scratch:

The issue has just became moot. Sen. Ben Nelson (D) Neb. has announced he will vote for the Senate healthcare reform bill, thus sending it to conference committee between the House and the Senate. It is my firm hope you all enjoy what you are about to get.
A bill which hasn't been seen, hasn't been read and one which no one except Harry Reid and his compatriots know what is contained in the bill.

This is a bad bill. It is nothing but a stimulus bill for insurance companies. I am 100% in favor of healthcare reform, but this is not it.

A paycheck deposited Friday PM in Peoples Bank was available at the ATM Saturday AM.

Just one example of a benefical goverment program.

Exactly how is this a "beneficial government program" because it sounds like a good business practice of People's Bank to me.

Think they were referring to the FDIC.

Regulators shut down Peoples First bank | pnj.com | Pensacola News Journal

Peoples First Community Bank was shut down Friday by federal regulators after struggling for more than a year against mounting financial losses.

Peoples First is based in Panama City and has three branches in Pensacola, one in Gulf Breeze and one in Pace. Before several branch closures this year, the bank had 33 locations stretching from the Panhandle to Orlando.

The remaining 29 branches of Peoples First will reopen during normal business hours today as branches of Hancock Bank, according to a press release by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., which is orchestrating the takeover.

FDIC would have kicked in, but if receivorship in FL is similar to GA, when a bank is being 'taken,' the banking division acts as a liaison for another institution to take over the assets and have no break in service.
