Comments on: Consumer Safety Chief Says She Won't Quit

Acting CPSC Head Nancy Nord Under Fire For Handling Of Toy Recalls

To those who don''t vote: Voter disenfranchisement and apathy infects the heart of our Republic. Get off your couch, put your remote control down, and become active in your nation''s political process. The pathetically few people that do vote in this country, a.k.a., "the ruling class", who currently get to decide under what kind of conditions (and Laws) you and your family will live, are certainly involved. I can assure you of that. In fact, the ruling class would be much happier if you would just continue to stay home and watch TV in your pleasantly distracted and brainwashed, stupor. That way they can continue to elect their political ****** to office, and continue to maintain their grip on 100% of the political power they currently own in this country. If you voted (God Forbid), it would cancel-out their vote, and they would lose control. They can''t have that. Can they? If you don''t vote, my friends, you''re nothing but an unwashed "Pleb" to those that do, and the ruling class should rightfully consider themselves superior to you in every way. They do, after all, have all the power, while you have none. If you''re too apathetic and powerless to do anything for yourself more time-consuming than driving down to Mickey D''s to buy a milk shake in order to sieze control of your life, and your country''s destiny, then perhaps you deserve to be ruled over like the "Pleb" that you then are. The time to act is now. The time for political revolution has come. The time for Ron Paul is NOW!

Pelosi, like Hillary, is just another governmental buffoon the American people can do without.

For those who have posted negatively to the democrats so-called competance or lack thereof, I would like these same "posters" who are obviously republican minded, to name one single, solitary competant thing this administration has accomplished. Just one, anywhere, that''s all I want. It can be an agency, a policy, a person named to head a department, ANYTHING OR ANYBODY. Simply YOU CAN''T. Total, complete abject failures everywhere and YOU have the unmetigated gall to say democrats want to "control everything"....PLEASE, when can they?

They have 100,000 private blackwater types in Iraq protecting 50-100 diplomats and military at what cost ?

And we have 300 million people here being exposed to the garbage these American companies are importing from China and Nord thinks she is protecting us and is on top of it ??

Actually I was describing every Republicon that I have ever met in my life, and I repeat:

Ever met a Con that did not have the personality of a used car salesman? You know them; tell ya anything that they think you want to hear, smiling and lying all at the same time. This is the real character of every Republicon in the USA.

Sounds like you''re describing Bill Clinton, the Icon of the Democrat party.

Don''t quit even then.

In Congress, Paul is not only known for his lack of ego (a rare quality in Washington), he''s widely admired for his resistance to the influence of special interest groups. They don''t call him "Dr. No" for no reason. He consistanly votes against pork-barrel spending. In a rice-growing, cattle-ranching district, Dr. Paul consistently votes against farm subsidies. In the very district where, on the night of Sept. 8, 1900, a storm destroyed the city of Galveston, leaving mor than 6,000 dead, and where repairs from Hurricane Rita and refugees from Hurricane Katrina continue to exact their toll, he votes against FEMA and flood aid. In a district that is home to thousands of employees of the Johnson Space Center, he votes against financing NASA. I don''t know this for sure, but my bet is that he''d consider the Consumer Product Safety Commission an unnecessay waste of taxpayer dollars as well. So do I. Ron Paul is a man with Presidential-like integrity and frugal spending principles when it comes to taxpayer money. He has my vote.

What drives Nancy Peloozy the craziest is the suggestion that the government actually REDUCE spending on ANYTHING. Democrats don''''t know what that means.

And we have spent how much on Iraq?
And this idiot running the ocuntry WANTS how much more for "bullets"?

Do we really believe he wants bullets? hahahaha that much money for bullets?
More like more money for his "special interests" and them ain''t our troops pal!

Toolmangler is right--we had most of the current debt before Pelozi joined forces with Bush--she hasn''t done anything that has been expected of the Dems as yet, so I figure she''s one of them now--along with Kennedy etc.
