I think the 67-year-old proud right-wing terrorist mentioned in this video and other seniors who share his views opposing a government health care plan should turn in their Medicare Cards and be forced to deal with high health care costs on their own or with the big greedy private insurance companies as others have to. The rhetoric needs to be toned down, but will not until Conservatives can learn to behave in a civil manner and show respect for views different from their own.

These people of the Right Wing in Chico, California aren't messing around when they say these things - the local church runs pornography and pedophile rings behind the scenes. They torture, hunt "witches" and "demons," and believe it is their God-given duty to impose the Bible on everyone. This is a primitive culture up here in Northern California ruled by mob bosses.

God bless Olberman. In contrast to the right wing mouths, there is no contest. Olberman has more brains in his little finger than all the right wing jerks put together

Keith Oberman is a great expression of manhood in the face of the insanity of FOX horror monsters. Thank God for him and his like.

Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty's teeth.

That's an absolute travesty of journalism. It is my fond hope that Olbermann roasts in the fires of ass-rape hell.

Oi, liberal, the government's function is not to take care of you or tuck you into bed at night or be your friend. The government doesn't care about you. Obama doesn't give a rat's doody about you and any money he might send you was already yours to begin with but was stolen from you.
