  @BELLEHARBOR … you forgot — wars, lies, torture, patriot act, deficits, economic collapse, bailouts.

  In reply to TEXAS.

  America — it’s ok to criticize to make it better. :) Freedom of speech baby!! That’s what you need to embrace! Once we aren’t willing to here honest criticism …. well, we are lost.

  Sick of the wars based on lies. Sick of bailouts to fraudulent bankers. Sick of deficits brought in by the prior generation that appear to be hopelessly unpayable. Sick of the fighting and the “us vs. them” mentality and the cheap political points. Sick of hearing “death panels” and other moronic nonsense. Sick of a consumer culture. Sick of seeing muslims and atheists and latino immigrants painted as “evil other”. Sick of all the good jobs going overseas. Yeah… a lot to be sick about.

  I’m afraid the deficits started in his era will be the undoing of his legacy.

• NY Bishop: Workers Need ‘New Social Contract’

  September 3, 2010 at 5:30pm

  In reply to Time 2 Revolt.

  @KJ — I agree with most of your points… What I am arguing for is CONSISTENT ethos. In life, in work, AND in government … So often I see good compassionate people but when it comes to government and uncontroversial social programs that are GOOD they don’t support them and in fact work really hard against them. It doesn’t make sense. So much hatred… so much suspicion… so much fear… it’s sad.

  Yes, yes, yes we need to work against corruption, waste, fraud, etc. We need to be ever vigilant against that stuff. But I do think government can be a vehicle for good and compassion. Call me crazy and naive if you want to, I don’t mind! :)

  @Randomone — You can vote. It’s disgraceful to call something tyranny when there are free, fair and consequential elections. That is NOT tyranny. Always remember that. Just because one side or the other doesn‘t like it doesn’t make it tyranny.

  @TAQUOSHI

  I do not see or understand how one can seperate “good” in my personal life from “good” in my public and community life and how I vote.

  @CLOUVIERE

  I understand am a big believer in work as as a contract and being paid for what I produce and the free market and so on. Absolutely.

  But we are also inescapably in a shared society with each other, and I would hate to see us go into a completely darwinistic, survival of the fitest, libertarian environment.

  Some social safety nets like Social Security and Medicaid for the truly disabled or sick etc are really good things. I also think that things like sensible workplace safety regulations, and food and drug safety controls etc. are good and important things, whether in the workplace or out.

  Social justice to me is not letting big corporations or governments harm or take advantage of any and all people, and I will fight for that all day long.

• Barney Frank: GOP Ranks Obama Inauguration With 9/11 & Pearl Harbor

  September 3, 2010 at 3:36pm

  Why is everybody bashing his voice/speech and not the content … bunch of hate-mongers it seems to me … jeesh, so much for “restoring honor” and “faith, hope and charity” … what a joke.

  In reply to SAXD9mm.

  While there may still have been a small deficit created under Clinton, as a percentage of GDP the national debt did go down.

  The debt was at about 50% of GDP at the end of Clinton’s term. Under Bush it went to around 90%, and now it’s almost at 100% with Obama. Which is just totally nuts. Everyone is delusional in my opinion.
