“Republicans: Trillions could be cut from budget if we eliminate empathy.”

“Everyone knows how fast you can wreck something compared to how long it takes to fix it. The GOP’s heavy hitter Dubya took a baseball bat to the economy for seven years. They expect someone to fix it in record time, and won’t even provide a roll of duct tape without using the GOP cop out battle cry, ‘How are you going to pay for it?’ ”

“I’m curious as to why Sheriff Joe sent his own deputy to Hawaii on the birther garbage instead of using Dog The Bounty Hunter, who is currently out of work. Sounds like excess employees at MCSO to me.”

“We should remove the warning labels from everything and let the stupidity problem take care of itself.”

“Abortion when you don’t want to deal with a pregnancy, aborting a baby when he or she isn’t the sex you desire; can it be too far down the road removing mom or dad if they become a crimp to your lifestyle?”

“HARP 2.0 helping Arizona? I am $50,000 underwater, never paid a mortgage payment late, have a Fannie Mae owned mortgage, and two and a half months after starting the process am still waiting to lower my payments. I had to write letters of explanation over items they found on my credit report from 10 years ago! They can change the mortgagee clause on my homeowners policy effective April 29, 2012 but can’t fund my new mortgage yet.”

“Looks like in Obama’s ‘new military’, you not only have to have take a soap-on-a-rope to shower (don’t drop the soap is no longer a warning just about slipping and falling) but now our military men and women must wear safety glasses 24/7 so they don’t get any body fluids (breast milk) accidentally shot in their eyes by breast-feeding sisters-in-arms. With the new regulations allowing women on the battlefied, maybe someone at the Pentagon should enlighten our Taliban/al-Qaida opponents not to shoot if they hear gurgling noises.”

“Mitt Romney claims his experience at Bain Capital qualifies him to run the country. Thats kind like the Undertaker saying he’s qualified to run the hospital because he knows his way around the graveyard.”

    Vent #5, that would be unprecedented, not to mention evil. Abortion is murder. I look forward to the day when EVERYONE will look upon abortion as repugnant and evil, especially infanticide.

    If some Democrats had their way, abortion would not only be legal (as it is now), but also mandatory. I believe David Axlerod is one of them.

    (Pardon me if I speed Mr. Axlerod's name wrong; I'm not sure how to spell it.)

    All fetus' are human beings in embryo. Engaged Voter, please engage your mind and take your "heart" off of your shirtsleeve.

    Where is the justification of accusing a caring person of bullying. Bullies do not care one whit about such issues.

    I, and most of those who protest abortion-on-demand, are very pro-choice--- and also pro-responsibility. You make the choice, you accept the consequences of that choice.
    Please consider the inconvenience of only nine months when a life of 70-80 years is in the balance.
    The time to choose is when you say "No, I value myself more than to allow intimacy without commitment." And that is for men as well as women!

    I'm curious to know if any of you anti-choice people would support abortions if the gender orientation of the fetus could be determined.

    Or would you still fight to save a gay fetus, only to bully, torture, attack, and kill it AFTER it was born?

    Just curious...

    I'm curious to know if any of you pro-abortion people would support your own abortions, or better yet, the abortion of your loved ones (particularly your children, if applicable).
    I wonder if Obama would support killing his own daughters before they were born. My guess is that he would not, but he would support it if it was somebody else's children. I sense quite a bit of Henry F. Potter in our president.

    When the Soviet Union pulled out of Afgahanistan in 1989, it left behind a 160,000- strong Afgan army, propped up with a $3 Billion a year in aid from Moscow. That experiment " in a government collapse, civil war, and the ultimately vaccum which enabled 9/11". commentarymagazine.com

    China can go straight to the Treasury Department when buying U.S. Government debt. Since last summer, the U.S. has allowed the People's Bank of China which holds $1.17 Trillion in U.S. debt to bypass major Wall Street banks when purchasing U.S. Treasuries. No other central bank has similar access. Reuters.com.

    Vent #1: What's empathy got to do with it? Balance the budget or otherwise there won't be a country to provide any "empathy".

    Vent #2: Your wrong! It wasn't Bush that took a bat to the economy, it was the housing bubble bursting that started the recession. Our present administration has had over three years and spent trillions of dollars and we are still teetering on the edge of more recession.

    Vent #3: Go Sheriff Joe, enforce all the laws all the time.

    Vent #4: As Forrest Gump would say, "Stupid is as stupid does".

    Vent #5: Abortion is still legal. But it's still illegal to kill mom and dad thank goodness. LOL

    Vent #6: That dang credit report can sure mess you up. Hope it works out for you.

    Vent #7: Just wait until the military will be required to provide the cost of sex change operations for it's transgender members.

    Vent #8: With Obama, our economy already looks like it's a graveyard.

    #5: How many abortions in the US were performed because of the sex of the child. Point out one case where it happened in the US. This is simply another straw argument put up by the far-right anti-choice crowd. The reason that the bill died is that those arguing for the bill could not prove that abortion based on gender was actually occurring in the US.

    #7, Gee I guess that new "Obama" military wasn't good enough to kill Osama bin Ladin, like the "Bush" military did. Oh, that's right, Bush had seven years to find and kill Osama but couldn't do it. In fact, he after he found that he couldn't do what he promised, so he stated he simply didn't care about bin Ladin.
