Christine O'Donnell in 2007: "They are -- they are doing that here in the United States. American scientific companies are cross-breeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains. So they're already into this experiment."

It's beyond shocking how people like this vault right to the top of the GOP.

GOP Tea

AP: Tea party favorite O'Donnell wins GOP Senate primary in Delaware over longtime congressman.

Sharon Angle admires Pinochet and advocates gun violence against the government if the GOP doesn't win in November. Rand Paul thinks the Civil Rights Act is unconstitutional and panders to people who want to replace the constitution with the bible. And Christine O'Donnell actually campaigned against masturbation. These people are the new Republican party and they are to the right of Atilla The Hun. If you want a racist theocracy that tells you how to live your personal life while selling out to the corporation, looting the economy, destroying the environment, and shredding the constitution, vote GOP.

Could Be Worse

Think Progress: I spoke to several of the delegates here, and some of the speakers, who said — including Newt Gingrich — who said it might come down to a budget battle where the federal government might need to be stopped temporarily to force President Obama to the table. What do you think about that?

COLLETT (R-MN): I think if the stakes are high enough, we might have to do that. Now that has real consequences to real people in lots of different ways. So, certainly that is not the first best option, but what’s at stake is very important so that decision will have to be made at that time.

Well, hell, at least she's not advocating for war against the country if the Republicans don't "win at the ballot box." But still, no government is a government only the corporations could love.

The Party Of Traitors

A surrogate for Nevada GOP Senate candidate Sharron Angle is saying that advocating "Second Amendment remedies" in order to effect political change is going too far and revealing that he was pressured to push such comments by some Republicans while running for the Senate. In a Sept. 8 interview on the Mike Wiley Radio Show, Danny Tarkanian, who lost the GOP primary to Angle, said such statements -- which were floated by Angle -- were "a little bit extreme."

We need investigations and hearings into to exactly who in the GOP was pressuring Danny Tarkanian to advocate for taking up arms against the United States. Once we find out they need to be arrested.

Bin Ladin Arrested

A man who compared himself to a Christian version of terrorist leader Osama bin Laden was in jail Saturday after being arrested for allegedly helping plot an attack against an abortion provider, according to published reports.

We've long said home grown right-wingers are every bit as dangerous as radical Islam. We wouldn't be at all surprised if Sharron Angle was posting bail for this guy as we speak. The whole bunch of them need to be put on the terrorist watch list. And they damn sure don't belong anywhere near our government.

Dam Bridges

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) opposes the the Obama administration proposed 50 billion infrastructure program, even though one-third of his state’s bridges are structurally deficient or functionally obsolete and the state has 178 high hazard dams (which is a dam where failure “would cause a loss of life and significant property damage”). He does so while at the same time pushing for an $830 billion tax cut for the richest two percent of Americans.

You would think rich people don't drive on bridges. As you can see from the picture it's clearly dangerous to have Republicans in government.

A Million Reasons

Pacificare faces nearly 10 billion dollars in fines for nearly a million violations.

These companies make massive profits and pay their executives robber baron compensation by taking in more money than they pay out in "health care." They do this primarily by unjustly and illegally denying claims. And people die as a result.

Our health care dollars should go to our health care and not private jets, yachts and multiple mega-mansions for "heath care" company executives. These companies should either not be allowed to exist or if they do, the law should mandate they be heavily regulated and non-profit.
