A U.S. Senator from Alaska. Murkowski was the incumbant in the 2010 election, but she was defeated in the G.O.P. primary by tea party candidate Joe Miller.
After the primary she mounted a write-in campaign. After some dispute and a recount, Murkowski won re-election in the first sucessful write-in campaign in 50 years!
It was a glorious slap in the face for Sarah Palin when Lisa Murkowski defeated her favored tea party candidate!

THE MOST OVERRATED PRESIDENT EVER! His reign (1981-1989) was marked by a huge shift in wealth from the middle class up to the rich. Reaganomics was the nuclear bomb dropped on the middle class in the class warfare battle. Reagan was very anti-union and during his reign working class wages fell as C.E.O. pay soared.Reagan cut taxes on corporations and the wealthy, by almost half, shifting the tax burden to the middle class. The resulting reduction in revenue, along with an insane peace-time military build up, lead to a tripling of our national debt.
Reagan also sold weapons toSaddam Hussein during the Iraq-Iran War and helped establish the Taliban in Afganistan to fight the Soviet Union.
The G.O.P. idolizes Ronald Wilson Reagan and want to continue his destruction of the American dream. The lasting legacy of our 40th president is: reganomics, the huge national debt and the rob-the-poor-to-feed-the-rich policies the GOP holds so dearly 20 years later. So many repubitards worship Ronald Reagan like a god it's no wonder they never get endorsements from unions, teachers or anyone with any sense of compassion.

M&M Party refers to the Republican Party and the two groups that support it. Millionaires and Morons! The Republicans only care about the richest 10% of the population and act accordingly. If you are not super rich and vote Republican you are in the moron faction of the M & M Party!
The big corporate execs are Millionaires and vote for the M&M party for the tax benefits, while Joe the Plumber represents the moron faction of the M&M party!

This "league of American voters" is a pro-business political organization trying to appear as a "non-partisan" government watchdog. They claim to be in favor of "the people" and opposed to congressional malfescence. They support people that work towards their agenda. Their web site sounds all rosey but it's rather vague.
The true character is obviously similar to the tea party, their first big campaign is to preserve Bush's tax cuts for the rich!
Fred Thompson is using his name to fight to "save the Bush tax cuts." How can anyone take ol' Fred or the League of American Voters seriously when they want to continue one of Bush43's most fuckwitted ideas?!

A highly inappropriate term for the extension of the Bush Tax Cuts!
In December 2010 the tax cuts were set to expire. President Obama and the Congressional Democrats wanted to let the tax cuts for the richest 2% expire and extend the tax cuts for the other 98%. Also at this time, the federal unemployment payments were set to end. Congressional Republicans didnot want to extend the unemployment benefits because it was "too costly," so they held the long-term unemployed hostage until Democrats extended the tax cuts for the richest 2%!!!
Obviously, the Democrats went along for the sake of the unemployed and to keep the tax cuts for those that actualy needed them. Republicans showed their true colors (caring only for the rich) while the Democrats were again the ones showing fiscal resposibility!
Some fucking idiot actually called the extension of the Bush Tax Cuts the Obama Tax Cuts!!! WTF?
Obama was opposed to extending the tax cuts for the rich!

In 2010, Tony Hayward is the C.E.O. of BP. While presiding over the worst environmental disaster in American history, the bp oil spill, this money grubbing scum showed not only his incompetence but his total lack of conscience. The Deep Horizon oil rig blew up and killed 11 people working there and then the millions of gallons of oil set out to ruin the Gulf Coast and the lives of thousands of Americans!
Then after several weeks of "trying to find a solution," Hayward actually had the gall to say "I just want my life back!"
Tony Hayward will go down in history as the leader of the company that ruined the Gulf of Mexico and devastated the lives of thousands of Americans!
