barney in town?

At least Barney came out of the closet, unlike most republicans.

[RGinWA 816]

so that's it..if we express dissent we need to move. Love America or leave it.. You progressives always do that

If you praise another foreign country for how great they are then why remain here? That's all I'm saying.

I didn't tell anyone to leave. If you love communist more power to you.

Um...you brought up the gay reference. But it figures.

a dem controlled congress approved.

Re-writing history, are we? Or just blowing smoke as usual?

108th Congress:

Senate: 51 R / 49 D

Majority leader: Bill Frist ®

House: 222 R / 209 D

Speaker: Dennis Hastert ®

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Wait, so are we or aren't we allowed to put blame on Congress when things go wrong? Or does it depend who the President is at the time?

Someone just dared to put some blame on Congress for some of Obama's failings and practically got laughed at for it.

Don't worry. Republi ans controlled both chambers of Congress when the Congress gave the green light to invade Iraq. Smoke was just blowing, well, smoke.

Interesting questions you ask, though.

Oh now Putin is super credible and agenda free?

Yes, the Obama haters have a hard-on for KGB Apparatschicks.

The suspected gunman was identified by the FBI as Aaron Alexis, a 34-year-old civilian contractor from Queens, N.Y., who most recently resided in Fort Worth, Texas.

FORT WORTH — The man suspected of killing 12 people at the Washington Navy Yard, identified as Aaron Alexis of Fort Worth, left the Navy in 2011.

Alexis, 34, was fatally shot after a gunbattle with police at the site of Monday’s shooting in Washington, D.C., The Associated Press reported. Police say they do not have a motive for the shootings.

Nutpisit Suthamtewakul, owner of Happy Bowl Thai in White Settlement, said Alexis was “my best friend.”

“He lived with me three years,” Suthamtewakul said Monday afternoon. “I don’t think he’d do this. He has a gun, but I don’t think he’s that stupid. He didn’t seem aggressive to me.”

Upon learning of his death, Suthamtewakul said, “ ‘Wait, he’s dead? I call him, but he doesn’t answer phone.”

Alexis had been in the Navy from 2007 to 2011 and was most recently stationed at Naval Air Station Fort Worth, according to Lt. Cmdr. Sarah Blansett, a Navy spokeswoman in McLean, Va.

He worked as an aviation electrician’s mate, 3rd class, in the Navy Reserve’s Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 46, according to the Navy.

Friends said he left the Navy because he didn’t like to get up early and had complained about getting underpaid.

Alexis also worked at times as a waiter and deliveryman at Happy Bowl, customers said.

Alexis had recently visited Thailand and had been to Japan with a computer defense contractor, where he worked in information technology, said Sandy Guerra-Cline, a customer at Happy Bowl and copy editor at the Star-Telegram.

“He is not a guy that talked about guns or talked about anything violent,” Guerra-Cline said. “As a matter of fact, my best memories of him were of him sitting at one of the tables at Happy Bowl trying to teach himself Thai.”

Some Thai bargirl probably took him for a ride and sent him off the emotional deep end.

Looks like the majority of Democrats in the Senate went along with it, as well as about 40% in the house. I doubt it would've mattered who controlled both houses at the time

Yeah maybe some ladyboy finally let him go south of the equator, and he got the shock of his life.
