Why it's expensive to be poor

Newt Gringrich: we can't trust Federal Government to administer our health insurance. Jon Stewart: then can we trust them to administer our military and national security?

Keynes "Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone."

Military Attorney: Waterboarding is 'Tip of the Iceberg' ... “They Would Come In With A Scalpel Or A Razor Type Of Instrument And They Would Slash His Genitals, Just With Small Cuts" Monthly

What a Mindfuck. Micheal Steele dedicates an entire speech to how "Reagan never looked to the past for solutions." Hmmm, If he can't see the contradiction there, the GOP really is doomed.
