Mark Sanford used state aircraft for personal and political trips, often bringing along his wife and children — contrary to state law regarding official use, an Associated Press investigation has found.<br /><br />Records reviewed by the AP show that since he took office in 2003, the two-term Republican has taken trips on state aircraft to locations of his children's sporting events, hair and dentist appointments, political party gatherings and a birthday party for a campaign donor.<br /><br />What's Sanford's take on this whole healthcare issue?

Her last hope was a $4,000-a-month drug that her doctor prescribed for her, but the insurance company refused to pay. <br /><br />What the Oregon Health Plan did agree to cover, however, were drugs for a physician-assisted death. Those drugs would cost about $50. <br /><br />"It was horrible," Wagner told ABCNews.com.

The incident is being spun by GOP operatives as SEIU thug violence--which couldn't be further from the truth.<br /><br />The SEIU Missouri State Council released a statement from Executive Director Brandon Davis today:<br /><br />[...] The Reverend, a St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter, and others who attended in hopes of a peaceful dialogue about our nation's healthcare crisis, endured the latest attempt by right-wing fringe groups to hijack the democratic process through violence if necessary. <br /><br />Last night, the Teabaggers' violent tactics broke and dislocated the shoulder of the Reverend.<br /><br />"Let's be clear: These groups, backed by insurance companies and corporate front groups, want nothing more than to preserve the status quo system of rationing, where HMOs choose doctors, and insurance companies deny us the care we need. Their dearest hope is that by resorting to outrageous charges of Nazism and euthanasia, they can make the American public too afraid to support real reform.<br /><br />"But SEIU and hardworking women and men all over this country are standing up to their bullying tactics. We deserve a national conversation about how we will fix our failing healthcare system and help make this an economy that works for everyone."<br /><br /><br />Unbelievable.

controversialpolitics.co...Obama and Hitler Compared<br />controversialpolitics.com <br /><br />Democrats manufactured the story that protestors at town hall meetings were carrying Nazi flags. Obama policies seem to be more closely aligned with the policies of Nazism, so a comparison of the two is necessary. <br /><br />Among the key elements of Nazism were Racism, Eugenics, leader principle, Government control of the industry, and of course moral relativism. http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Nazism. <br /><br />Those are also the principles of Obama's plan for a "better America." <br /><br />The shared connection of racism speaks for itself. Both megalomaniacs, Hitler and Obama, are racists. Hitler, (who possibly was Jewish) hated Jews. Obama who clearly is partially white expressed his personal dislike of whites when, lacking any facts other then race, labeled a white police officer doing his job as "acting stupidly". <br /><br />Race was the only basis for that judgment, making Obama a racist. Furthermore both dictators use race as a basis for policy decisions. Hitler designed the Final Solution to further a policies of eliminating Jews as a race. <br /><br />Obama appointed a Supreme Court Justice who has demonstrated that she uses race as a criteria for judgment rather than the Constitution. <br /><br />Eugenics, the elimination of the non-useful members of society, is another key feature of the policy of both dictators. Again Hitler used concentration camps See the rest at controversialpolitics.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-88666530868422780692009-08-09T12:24:39.390-07:002009-08-09T12:24:39.390-07:00Democrats: Anything to Avoid Meeting With Voters
...Democrats: Anything to Avoid Meeting With Voters<br /><br />After four decades of urging students, hippies, communists, and agitators to come out en masse to protest the U.S. government, protests that commonly turned to violence, Democrats are at last finding a protest they don’t like because, with the healthcare debate, this time it is a protest of them and not by them. <br /><br />Amazingly, Democrats have suddenly discovered that government should be meekly accepted, wholly given in to, obeyed without question and a lap dog Old Media has seemingly agreed. Any of you that heard only as little as a year ago that “protest was patriotic,” or that “dissent was the highest form of patriotism” are now gravely informed that to say a cross word against the Obammessiah makes one “dangerous.” <br /><br />And now, Democrat Party bigwigs are passing down the directives to their Congressional membership that townhalls are verboten from this point forward. Congressmen returning to their districts are being told to find ways to avoid their voters as much as possible. <br /><br />Instead of holding large meetings, now Democrats returning back home are trying to corral voters into small gatherings, one-on-one meetings, phone calls, or simply not meeting with them at all. These cowards realize that their efforts to back Obama’s socialist take over of nearly 20% of the American economy is anathema to a large portion of the electorate and they don’t want to hear about it. These elected officials’ minds are made up and what the voters want is immaterial.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-19625053233473415272009-08-09T11:40:15.968-07:002009-08-09T11:40:15.968-07:00"They tipped their hand too soon" Tea Pa..."They tipped their hand too soon" Tea Party vs. SEIU makes front page in St. Louis (St. Louis Post Dispatch)<br /><br />By now you know of the atrocity committed by SEIU union thugs against Kenneth Gladney, a slight, mild-mannered man who sold pins and flags at Russ Canahan's August 6th healthcare town hall in St. Louis. <br /><br />The St. Louis Tea Party immediately organized a demonstration against the St. Louis offices of SEIU, placing the blame for Gladney's injuries exactly where they belonged -- on the head's of Barack Obama and his union goons. <br /><br />See: http://stlouisteaparty.com/<br /><br />See the extended reporting on the St. Louis Tea Party here: http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/news/stories.nsf/politics/story/8F86C6EBA6731CBC8625760C00194F9D?OpenDocumentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-55596145569558076592009-08-09T11:27:18.886-07:002009-08-09T11:27:18.886-07:00Up until now the most critical discussion by the m...Up until now the most critical discussion by the main stream knee pad journalists about Obama has been whether his seman tastes too salty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-87687259251859855042009-08-09T11:22:28.664-07:002009-08-09T11:22:28.664-07:00Yes, SEIU is a pack of illiterate former hotel mai...Yes, SEIU is a pack of illiterate former hotel maids and gardeners who the Dems unionized as fund-raisers and hell-raisers.
