WOW. Just, like, um, you know, WOW. This just in "House of Representatives Comedy Hour" coming to you Live from the Capitol!

An iPod is a basic right. Unreal.

i think we should add to the constitution you have to have at least 2 brain cells to be able to run for office.

It sounds like he was reading from FDR's Second Bill of Rights speech. I'm sure you guys are sharp enough to know that (...not in a million fucking years) and have actually seen the whole film of FDR's speech so you know the context and the facts (...no, you just followed the Pied Piper whining about the iPod comment like conservative lemmings).

Yeah, you balked at the idea of providing modern school supplies to all kids in school...while you were using your laptop or iPod/iPhone to do something important...looking for hookers on the Internet. Shame on you.

How can a non-mental illness be "rationalized" to a sane person? Explain. Wouldn't a sane person also be rational, and therefore capable to figure out reality for themselves? Your passive sentence structure hints that you are used to being told what to think. In your view, things have to be "rationalized TO" you.

PS. STFU

Rather bold of you to tell someone else they are being told what to think, while telling that same person to "STFU" isn't it? Pot, meet kettle.

Barcode, welcome to the board. When politics is the topic, its a bloodsport. Gird you loins, and dive in!

PS. Back to Longer, Junior may have based his speech on a speech made by FDR but that does not lend any more rationality to his sentiment. Changing the constitution to provide health care will magically create more doctors when we already have a doctor shortage? Really? In what universe? A laptop and an iPod is a necessary school supply? Really? I managed to graduate Magna Cum Laude without either. I agree that our education system is broken and needs to be fixed, but when the DC school district simultaneously tops the list of most money spent per child, and lowest graduation rate, we need to consider the possibility that simply throwing more money at the problem won't fix anything.

Dress it up however you like, Jesse Junior sounded like a flaming nutjob in that clip. Absolutely no grasp of reality, or possessing a single real solution to anything.

"It sounds like he was reading from FDR's Second Bill of Rights speech"

FDR gave a speech saying that kids should get IPOD's?

LaCrew..................shame on you for not knowing that speech.

At the time it was lauded as a look at the future by a visonary President.

Some Republican tried to capture the topic saying; "an ipod in every pot."

FDR could simultaneously go back in time, while using futuristic gadgets.

"When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed," Biden told Couric. "He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'"

monger just got his ass handed to him...again.

La Crew anyone interested in history and politics has the Video Recording of that FDR TV Broadcast.

Thanks to John McCain for pointing out that all the cell phones and ipods are made in America.

Whew

...and we've come full circle:

JJ JR: " How many people would be put to work building roofs and designing classrooms and providing every student with an iPod and a laptop"


....ummm...thousands of people in China.

You know the cell phone was invented in the US by Martin Cooper at Motorola.
What is a right? That is the nasty question that liberals don't know don't want the answer to. J. S. Mills and Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. both agreed that the best definition of a right is anything you want to do except when it causes someone else inconvenience or harm.
Jesse Jr. wants to give laptops to everyone... okay, someone has to make them and to provide the raw materials. Someone has to pay for that and to take the time to process the materials. Those people have to be paid and the materials have to be purchased. If you force people to provide labor or materials then you are endorsing slavery. So you decide to take money from other people and pay for the labor and materials... This is called theft. So for Jesse Jr. and his supporters (that's you Monger, stand up and take a bow) you have to support either slavery or theft maybe both. Jefferson had several words to say about the using the public treasury this way. He also called it theft.
So all hail slave master Jesse Junior and his thieving cohorts of crime (yes, I watched Batman in the sixties).

I also have to point out that the constitution prohibits treating one group of people differently from others. So it is unconstitutional to give anything to "ghetto" kids but not the rest. That is another aspect of a right. Everyone possesses them.

I knew FDR, FDR was a friend of mine. Mr. Jackson Junior, you're no FDR.

And before Longer jumps into another rant, I never met FDR. It was a lie. But it is still a good line. It's frightening to know there are people like that in Congress, and he isn't even close to being the stupidest one.
