And I'm the idiot? Someone's a homophobe. Don't worry sweetie... if you're gay you're gay... no one is going to "turn you on " to the "dark side". Sorry, but we are here and still queer so whether it be the person selling you your house or the person in the next Army bunk in Iraq... we are NOT GOING AWAY, so get used to it, get over it, and get a life.

Idiot, if you tax oil companies you only raise the price of the gasoline they sell causing your money to be spend further. Where do you think the oil companies will go to in order to pay the raised taxes, your fuel tank. By the way, We didn't ask Gay people to fight in or military and frankly, WE DON'T WANT THEM IN IT.

I truly believe that Americans are fools to believe that we are a two party system. There is only one party in Americad; Republican and Republican Lite! The Republicans nor the Democrats run the country. Anyone with half of a brain knows that our country is run by the lobbyists and the wealthy corporate elite!

Nice... Ahhhnold wants to cut welfare and government programs, but does not want to implement new taxes on oil and tobacco companies to help diminish California's defecit... hmmm is that because these companies are former and potential future campaign contributors??!! Also, why is it that gay citizens are good enough to die for their country as long as they do not admit that they are gay... that makes no sense!

When people petition their state governments for Instant Run Off voting ballot iniatives.

Nothing like people that offer nothing except

blame on the two parties instead of trying to

make them better. Libertarian's, Paultards,

green party, what do you guys offer except

complaining? If you guys wanted a real,

fair, social democracy, you would get involved

in something positive to change the existing

parties instead of just bitching from the

sidelines.Shit, get rid of the two party system

if it will help our country.

Dem/Reps different sides of the same bent coin, when will people learn?
