		<description><![CDATA[Care to cite some examples of this? Let me guess...

-  Abortion? True conservatives (those you call &quot;ultra right&quot;) believe that the right to life and liberty extends to those of the unborn. We believe that Roe v. Wade should be overturned and left to state governments to decide. We are against federal funding of abortion (again...leave it to the states).
-  Contraception? We believe that its up to the individual to decide if they want to use contraception. We also believe that they can pay for it themselves. I don&#039;t need to pay for your lifestyle choices. Government mandates forcing insurance companies, and the companies/organizations (churches for example) paying for the coverage have a right to decide what they want to cover. Having health insurance pay for contraception is like having car insurance pay for tire rotation. Which leads me to another point, this is all the more reason that all federal insurance mandates need to go away. Let individuals choose what coverage they want to pay for, and let them purchase across state lines so they can get the best deal. Insurance coverage does not mean free (or nearly free) healthcare for every cough, sneeze, hemorrhoid or STD.


-  Gay marriage? Quit making an issue out of, and defining your life by, who you choose to bump uglies with and/or spend your life with. Quit expecting everyone to acknowledge you and applaud what you do with your wee-wee or hoo-ha. We don&#039;t care. Let states decide how they want to define marriage. You can also enter into legal contracts with your partner, giving them the same benefits regarding finances and healthcare decisions.]]></description>

As for the rest of your comment, keep on fighting the good fight. You are 100% correct!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Refusing to feature truths from the other side also qualifies as &quot;leaning-left&quot;...  And unfortunately, many of these institutions choose to omit things that don&#039;t meet their agenda.  Every once in a great while, they&#039;ll let one through just to make it seem as if they report both sides fairly.  And it fools people.
The only credit I will give to factcheck.org is that they reported that the allegations of Romney being a Felon is simply not true.  
Now on one hand, we have Mr. Obama, who admitted to doing a lot of Cocaine, which is, in fact, a Felony. ]]></description>

Mind your own freakin&#039; business and let people do as they wish.&quot; pretty funny considering the current ultra-right state of the republican party who&#039;s main purpose seems to be passing laws that is anything but minding their own freakin&#039; business.

		<description><![CDATA[First of all, it&#039;s Carl Rove.


Second, if it weren&#039;t for all these corporations and their BIG money, our corrupted government wouldn&#039;t have ANY money to spend/waste! Average Americans like you and me would have no jobs, and we couldn&#039;t buy our beloved Android devices. ALL of the tax income for our country comes from the top 50% of wage-earners in this country. That means that HALF of our country is free-loading off of those evil corporations (who aren&#039;t real people, according to the leftists) and the rest of us. It&#039;s funny you say that Big Business shouldn&#039;t have any say in our government. Big Business FUNDS our government!


One thing we agree on:  corporations should not be bailed out by the government. If anyone screws up, they should suffer the consequences. The financial industry was forced (by government regulations) to loan money (mortgages) to high-risk, low-income families who couldn&#039;t afford to buy a home. (Y&#039;see leftists think that everyone DESERVES to be given what everyone else has to WORK hard to get.) Banks, seeing the risk, sold these loans to unsuspecting financial investors, and they did the same until there were no more suckers to buy the crap-loans. This is when the bubble busted. The banks shouldn&#039;t have been forced into the situation, but they shouldn&#039;t have been rewarded for loop-holing their way out of it either.


Bottom line: work hard, earn money, buy Android and don&#039;t be a stupid leftist that thinks that you know what people need better than they do. Mind your own freakin&#039; business and let people do as they wish. They will learn from their mistakes or continue to suffer for them!]]></description>
