The Republicans' Latest Demand on stimulus: no ACORN!
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/first100days/2009/01/27/republican-leaders-raise-concerns-acorn-stimulus-dollars/

Just in case anyone thought that anything had been gained by giving John Boehner and the RNC a victory on the family planning funds. There is no good faith on their part.

No. more. dialogue.

1. The neo-cons were right
When you appease the enemy, he just demands more and more and more.

3. No negotiations with terrorists.
Whether they're Wahhabis in Waziristan or Republicans from Ohio.

4. Obama has to understand that the GOP thinks compromise means he's weak
Theres no compromising with people who act like that.

6. Exactly!
Obama's trying to act in a fair, reasonable way with people who don't give a shit about being fair or reasonable. They don't care about the country, they only care about power.

No acorn and stfu about universal healthcare...
Not sure who the silly puke official on MSNBC was but he was happy to talk about the infamous $5000.00 tax credit for health insurance bullshit again and how anything else is WELFARE. Yall remember that crap during the GE, right? It sorta became Mccain's favorite line. Put the money back in the American people's pockets and all that :puke:.

Unfrickingbelievable!!!!
