Interesting that huge bills that are ripping freedoms are not even being discussed here. SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) would effectively kill aggregation sites like DailyKos as anyone could submit infringing material, get the site immediately blocked (which there is little to no recourse), and then the burden is on the site to get back online.

Maybe I am blind, but Rep. Lynn Woolsey (Ca), Jan Schakowsky (Il) and Pete Stark (Ca) and a group of 128 House Congress Reps co-signers have a new bill to revive the Public Option. Not seeing any discussion on Koz?

As it can break the bad private health care strangle hold and lower the deficit by billions I would think people would be all over this.

Why wait? Start a primary challenger against Baucus RIGHT NOW!

Max Baucus wants to force health care reform to fail in his committee so that two or three people with gold rolexes can profit while the rest of us suffer. So I thought to myself, what can folks do about it? How can you go over Max's head to make progress? Sit and wait all recess for something to magically happen? Not going to. There is only one answer, rally people and start now to get rid of him.

And there is no time like the present, this recess is a perfect time. We need to identify a challenger to primary against Baucus and start to run against him now. If we start now (and I mean today), he can have a huge war chest and build the needed name recognition needed to win the primary.

Last night I saw Iron Man (fantastic movie by the way) and during the film, Iron Man is faced with a dilemma that is in his best interests to lie and chooses to tell the truth. I thought about that. Almost all Superheros are like this. Superman is not even capable of telling a lie. So these characters are popular, because these Superhero characters have this capacity to do the right thing and tell the truth. And many times it is not in the Superhero's best interests to do so. So I thought about that and then the Presidential Candidates. I decided that only Barack has this quality. When Barack promises something I actually believe he is going to do it. When I look at what he does, he keeps his promises. Why do people hear what they want from other candidates and then ignore that they do? That other Presidential Candidates fail to deliver over and over? People make Superheros popular, because they want the qualities of these characters. It is to bad that there is not more attention paid to Barack's ability to do what he says he will and to tell the truth, as it will actually help people in their daily lives with issues that matter.

Since Jan 2008, how did Clinton blow it so badly?

Clinton has had the deck stacked so heavily in her favor at the beginning of this contest one has to ask how she has managed to run her campaign into the ditch so badly. Clinton had Bill's name recognition. Clinton had lots of money. Clinton had lots of connections to political insiders. The list goes on and on. I am a strong believer in looking at what people actually do and focusing less on what they say. If you look at this extremely strong position that Clinton started the Dem Primary process from and to what Clinton has done to end up where she is at now, how can you think that she would be a great President of the United States? And, also taking into account what the next President will be inheriting a mess from Bush? Now, while Clinton tries to somehow make everyone forget that she proclaimed that her nomination would be wrapped up by Super Tuesday, I have to ask why Clinton's inability do anything right and to stop Barack is not getting more attention.

Before almost all of the primaries, Clinton has had some kind of a sympathy stunt to pull votes. What will it be this time?
