I am curious why people think this is acceptable public behavior. I know on the frontier 150 years ago people shot each other over politics. I thought we had gotten better. Perhaps not. What is WRONG with people?

Why is being anti lindsey graham a “nutwing.”
He’s a traitor to America – not just to the GOP
I’m a democrat by the way.
When those “collaborative efforts” mean our economy lay in ruins? hell no.
I would think that it would be better to have a Democrat and a Republican working together.
To hell with the tea partiers. Let them scream and holler. They’re only a handful of people. The rest of us will make our feelings known on election day.
but our economy does not have to be in ruins.
Why is everything so partisan, and yet nothing gets done.
Energy independence – how come our cars do not run on natural gas – like other countries?
Why do we resist nuclear plants? There is one down at Lake Anna for about 30 years, and never had a problem.
How come the rest of the world has moved to the metric system, yet we here in the US have been changing for 30 years. Other countries change currencies, regimes, economies – yet, we get nothing done.
Sometimes, it takes the Gov’t to make a change into a direction that the money makers do not want to go.
Read the book Someone moved my Cheese – it is about change, and people do not like change even if it benefits them.
example – http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/pets-save-taxes-congress-debate-happy-act/story?id=8811927 – here is an elected official wanting tax breaks for pets. Instead of simplifying our tax code, he wants to make it more complicated.
This type of a Congressman is like a Lawyer filing frivolous law suits.
I’m glad you brought that up Pat, ‘Why do we resist nuclear plants’? As I’ve stated before, look at France, a country who has no real natural resources. They get about 90% of their electricity from nuclear and hydro. In fact, electricity is their number 1 export.
Why don’t we look at nuclear? Because of the left wing radical environmentalist, period.
Hello,
So I guess you are willing to have a nuclear power plant in your back yard AND store the waste there?
Please, just answer that one question for me.
@Pat.Herve
Excellent questions, Pat, especially the one about partisanship. Obviously it doesn’t work. So why do we still have it? Are we, as a country, that stuck in a tradition?
So will NOVA’s nuclear waste be dumped in Fairfax of PWC?
in the end even the most staunch Neo-con will be calling for Illegal immigrants to take care of the waste.
@rod2155
Arlington. Isn’t that a “sanctuary city”?
With today’s technology Elena, YES! You obviously have never looked at what France has done with nuclear technology or the advancements they have made in recycling spent nuclear fuel. They can recycle up to 96% of the spent fuel and they have made some pretty big advancements in storage as well.
You have the same emotional and uneducated thinking about nuclear energy as most here in the US. It’s not your fault, we have been taught for years that it’s evil and will kill us all for decades.
So Elena, I guess you are willing to have a COAL plant in your back yard AND store the waste there? (just a heads up, that waste is in the air, water, etc…)
Please, just answer that one question for me.
Starry, I suppose I strive to live in a civilized world where that kind of behavior is simply unacceptable.
The Tea Party people aren’t the ones ruining America.
Elitists like Graham who don’t share the same values as the “common people” they ostensibly represent are.
The Tea Party screamers or Ron Paul supporters aren’t the people who oversaw all of the corruption and lobbyist-authroed law of the last few years that manifested itself in financuial crash, and bailout at our children’s expense.
Yeah, we’re gonna get taught a lesson on election day, huh?
Must I have either elitists or Tea Party Screamers? Isn’t there a happy medium?
Slowpoke and Starry neither one should count their chickens before they hatch. In terms of an election cycle, Nov. 4 is still light years away.
Glenn Beck is also taking a few shots at Lindsay Graham. He says he is caving in to the progressives. Actually he goes on a rant at him. He says he has turned his back on conservative values and has sold out the Constitution. What a nasty little deranged man he is!
I thought about you today, Moon. Some guys at work put on PMSNBC and some of the hatred they spew got into my earholes. We need Glenn Beck and Fox News to balance out the extreme leftist hatred that spews out of PMSNBC!
BTW, I’m going to agree with you that after watching Fox and PMSNBC, I’ll go along with CNN being as close to the middle as one can get.
What? Chickens Hatch? Of course not! I readily acknowledged that lessons will be learned on Nov 4!
@Moon-howler
>>>Glenn Beck is also taking a few shots at Lindsay Graham. He says he is caving in to the progressives. Actually he goes on a rant at him. He says he has turned his back on conservative values and has sold out the Constitution.
He hit that one out of the park! Indisputable home run!
>>> What a nasty little deranged man he is!
Absolutely! Truer words were never spoken about Lindsay! He should join McCain, Snow and Collins and join the Democrat Party. The GOP should purge all RINO’s.
Perhaps the RINOS should purge the people making the GOP look deranged. Interestingly enough, they were there first.
Obviously, you are trying to twist my words. I was referring to Glenn Beck being a nasty little deranged man.
I thought you had already been taught one last November.
Hello,
Coal is dirty and and an environmental hazard. Go visit communites that have been desimated by the sludge created from mountain top mining. I’m not even sure what your point is to be honest. There is clean renewable energy. Solar/Wind/Geothermal may not solve all our energy needs, but right now we are utilizing very little of all these measures. Nuclear is one small component. Yucca Mt. is going to cost at least double of what had originally been forcasted, almost 100 billion to store nuclear waste that remains active for 1,000 years. If we are going to invest in the future, why not use our innovation to forward think and creatively solve our energy demand. In the interum coal and nuclear are still two components, but they should only be the stop gap to more long term solutions.
I know when we built our home my husband wanted to use geothermal methods to heat and air condition our home, but the cost was simply prohibitive. We still are working on ways to be more efficient and using a wood burning stove, extra ordinary insulation measures, programmed zones for almost every room, CFL bulbs in all our lights, and other methods has definately made an impact in our energy consumption.
Coal will always be part of our energy cycle I fear. The mines and the coal mining unions are too firmly entrenched in American life. Too many people living in areas in Appalachia would be unemployed and displaced were the coal mining industry shut down. Other than this reality, I agree, it is dirty and an environmental hazard. It is also a very dangerous way to earn a living.
My brother has geothermal heat is his house and it is prohibitive in cost. He bought his house from some woman who had had a very lucrative divorce settlement before she built her home: imported Italian tile, geothermal heating. It was very expensive to fix when something went wrong with it also.
My husband worked for a renewable energy company back in the 70’s. The Department of Energy was all over renewable energies. What happened? Reagan was elected. Everything that was on the front burner got moved to the back burner. I feel like we are having to reinvent the wheel.
The technology has gotten much better. Just compare solar yard lighting today to that sold even 10 years ago. Compare CFL lights from 5 years ago. However, we should be light years ahead of where we are now.
@Starryflights
> Yeah, we’re gonna get taught a lesson on election day, huh?
>> I thought you had already been taught one last November.
Right. By all measures, it’s not working out all that well, is it?
It’s working out ok for me. I didn’t expect miracles though.
But I am not sitting around thinking how awful things are. Same thing happened when Bill Clinton was elected, too many people spent too much time trying to play ‘gotcha.’
