But this is how you people operate. You’ll burn down the house when you don’t get your way.

GO ahead, print that post by me. Say that I want the country destroyed. Your republicans are turning that rhetoric into action! How proud you must be!

As the desperation to stymie Obama increases, look for conservatives to become more outrageous.

Awful people.

Chances are that the subject of the countries shaky financial state came up in a casual conversation so what was Kirk supposed to do, lie? Than he would have been just like any Democrat.

Honest in politics is a rare thing so we shouldn’t get on Kirks case when he was being so.

“I am fighting to extend the assault weapons ban, close gun show loopholes, require trigger locks, enforce the Brady Bill and protect our children from drugs and gangs.” – Congressman Mark Kirk

Continue the Assault Weapons Ban
The 1994 assault weapons ban expired on September 13, 2004. Congressman Kirk supports extending the assault weapons ban. On July 8, 2004, he joined three of members of the House of Representatives in a letter requesting that Speaker of the House, J. Dennis Hastert, bring this critical piece of legislation up for a vote. He also urged the Administration to push for renewal of the assault weapons ban. On May 5 and June 18, 2004, he co-signed letters to the President and Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge urging action on the assault weapons ban.

Close the Gun Show Loophole
Congressman Kirk co-sponsored H.R. 3540 to close the gun show loophole. This bill requires criminal background checks on all firearms transactions occurring at events that provide a venue for the sale, offer for sale, transfer, or exchange of firearms.

An evaluation of gun trafficking investigations showed that gun shows rank as the second leading source of illegal guns recovered by federal law enforcement. In 1994, Congress passed the Brady Bill, which required gun stores to perform criminal background checks on all gun buyers. In just five years, these background checks have blocked 536,000 convicted felons and other illegal buyers from purchasing a gun. Congressman Kirk supports the Brady Bill because it keeps guns out of the hands of criminals.

Because the Brady Bill does not apply to private gun dealers, criminals who cannot buy at a gun store can skirt the law and obtain guns from private sellers at gun shows with no questions asked. Congressman Kirk supports closing this loophole in the law. This legislation would close the gun show loophole nationally.

You can go FUCK yourself Kirk, you anti-gun piece of shit. You’re no better than any other gun hating shit stack from Illinois.
All this assholes info comes straight from the Brady Bunches web site.

Just like the Dixie Chicks, people should stop buying this guy’s records and going to his concerts. Justice.

To the dumb potato who whines about Barry. If you are not aware, the world financial system as we know it for the past 100 years or so was on the verge of financial collapse as a direct result of Bush’s policies and inaction over the past eight years.(Look up Bank of England head Mervyn King’s comments and check out how much money was withdrawn within hours after W let Lehman Brothers(?or was it Bear Stearns) collapse. Obama was elected due to the fact that the republicans destroyed the middle class and the economy with it. All we need is for you rubes to grow old quickly and die off along with your party so this country can get back on its feet. Unfortunately it won’t happen quick ebough.

Sorry guys but politics should stop at the border. If this had been a democrat bashing bush you guys would be singing a different tune.

Here’s the difference, Rob: The Dem would be trying to bring down the US by downtalking the economy, but this guy is trying to prevent Obama from bringing down the US with his insane economic schemes. Like most arguments, both sides are not symmetrical.

The best thing that could happen to America is that everyone would stop loaning our government their money.

I don’t see anything wrong with what Kirk said. He didn’t blast or criticize Obama. Congress passes the spending bills and as a member of congress he’s informing China that he feels we will be spending more than what has been budgeted, and assigns the reason for it as health care. Why can’t that be said? Its true and everyone knows it. Why should he lie just because the president does?

So two wrongs make a right?

I don’t think it’s that simple. You say this is a fight that needs to be fought here. How’s that working so far? Obama controls congress, he controls the majority of the media, the majority of the country’s voters seem pretty oblivious to what the consequences of his actions are going to be. What course of action would you suggest? This isn’t the conventional political battlefield anymore. The liberals have taken extreme measures to get a inexperienced community activist put in charge of the greatest country on the planet. Maybe extreme measures are needed to get him removed from power.
