just media ratings for profit.  media has nothing to do so they wait for something anything except something of substance that will "make news" 

 Agree racism in this article is the worst article ever written by anyone media or otherwise. 

Someone has too much time on their hands.

the moment was awesome.  Media have nothing to do but find anything for the ratings bonanza with their usual reckless, irresponsible, erratic, and unethical reporting.  meida has long since been to inform an matters of substance.

I agree with Woopi on the View we have no idea what the real story is behing the Rhianna and Chris event. We only have on side of the story what she told the police when she was very angry.

Dr. Phil said on the view even if Rhinna was hitting Chris on the head with a frying pan you cannot hit a woman.  Chris should run.

Are we sending the right message to women that we can abuse men regardless of the circumstance.  Remember the Ministers who shot him in the back took the kids and left town and is did not go to jail. That was not right and we must be careful of the messages we send to women and men.

No A man should not hit a woman and a woman should not hit a man as well.  It seems that some women are getting away with murder based on the never hit a woman theory even if she hurts the man badly.

Niether should hit the other. When I see women who murder men when they could have left rather than take their lives it’s just awful and juries are letting some of these women off.

There are two lives involved in this tragedy Rhinna and Chris’s.  Less get the the truth and remember no hitting from both sides.  Dr. Phil is wrong about women abusing men and expecting that men should just let them do so.

I’m sure that this won’t be what we women want to hear but we must learn to respect each men and women.  Absolutely no hitting.  We should not tilt this argument in either direction.  By doing this perhaps they both will think twice and not do any hitting.

We say we are independent, less be independent in our thinking, no hitting form either side.  A woman should not hit a man and a man should not hit a woman.  Who ever pass the first punch should be arrested. period.

WIth everything that’s going on in the country we have this topic?  Ok I will respond

"You Betcha"

All of this hate from WOMEN?  It’s shameful.

Women get this kind of response on jobs and have for years.  Why are women tearing women down and all from Hear Say.  You don’t know Nancy Pelosi the only thing you know is what you hear?

As hard as we fight for women in the work place the responses are just shameful.

I hear a lot about Pelosi but since I don’t know her I will not bash this woman under any circumstances.  From what I see and the truth that is written she is doing an excellent.

Men simply hate this woman and that should tell women something.

Women we have a letter from a man and a post from a man that means she’s doing her job.  Don’t let these men talk you into destroying a good woman just doing her job.

Ask your self, and I keep up with the news and particularly politics, what do you really know about the Speaker vs. what you hear?

Hurting women in the workplace, by other women is not kosher.

Take a long look in the mirror stop buying what you hear and get involved, I am an avid political person and I can assure you that what you hear is not validated.  Write to her, check out her votes on Congress.org, check her record as recorded on Congress.org.  Have you done that?

If you had you would quit buying the GOP rhetoric about you sister Pelosi.

Time to get informed. 

This guy is a DRUG ADDICT that the media refuses to acknowledge because they need ratings.  He’s no example for your family or mine. He pleaded guilty for buying illegal drugs form significant doctors and off the black market.

Do you really want this guy for a hero and representing the GOP?

It’s all pretty sad.  If anyone wants this guy as an example for their children or any family member of themselves they are in need of a padded room. 

John Made a MISTAKE, it’s time to move on. Elizabeth forgave him and that’s what’s important other than him asking GOD>  Too may folks are holier than thou and make mistakes but have a tendency to rank them into small, medium size and super mistakes.  Mistakes are mistakes and sin is sin.

 We don’t get to judge no matter how much screaming we do and how much pain we have a tendcy to cause those who do.  We have all made mistakes regardless of the type.

The heart of a person is the forgiving spirit, we would all do well to live by that.  This family has suffered enough at the hands of the media taking their private lives into the living rooms of Americans.

Gringrich, Clinton, Delay, McCain all have fallen short so move on.  Some got significant publicity and the others received none even though two of them left sick wives with Cancer and Complete and total disability.

We would hope that this family is doing great because his spouse Liz does not need the weight of America upon her shoulders she has enough to deal with taking care of herself due to her illness.

For some reason Americans don’t understand that duping on JOhn is causing Elizabeth significant streess she doesn’t need.

For once ladies those naysayers, just wish the couple well and pray for their happiness.

We dist

She definitely needs psychological help.  I don’t believe she’s insane and I believe she’s doing all this for publicity and to get rich quick.  Unfortunately this young woman does not care about the adverse impact she is causing her parents since they have always taken care of her and all these kids financially and otherwise.

The hospital should not release these children into her care as she does not have a home equipped nor the help needed to take care of the kids.  Hopefully a family member wills step in.

These children deserve better and this woman is all about SELF period.

How do you shop with 14 kids?  Her priorities are totally screwed.

I saw Liz on CNN and as another reader said on this I agree she did a great job.  Finally something we can agree on.

Funny you weren’t saying all this when George Bush and the Republicans were causing the current economic Crisis.  UH?

The Republicans have been in power 20 of the las 28 years and this has been building for a long time and finally the crisis hit.

 President Clinton was the only one in 28 years to balance a budget and left President Bush a Surplus which has been more than doubled with his and the Republican leadership.

Republicans never take responsibility for anything.

President Obama assumed responsibility for this mess the day he took office he didn’t need your approval to do that.

McCain who readily admitted he knew nothing about economics, thank goodness the country saw through him

Millions of us don’t have doubts about our nation an we did vote those money grubbing, not only future stealing but they actually stole billions and we voted them out of office.

We have more hope now that your gang is out of office and we can now look to a great future for our children you know those who can’t even get college loans because of this debacle and thohse grauduating from college who can’t find jobs because of the mess the last administration and Republican congress created.  yes our children are feeling the brunt, but, it will get better because that’s what we do we are Americans.

 

As the President says, our fate is not written for us but by us.

We the People make the decisions, perhaps the Republicans will remember that in the future.

Glad to see you were not affected nor your friends, family or anyone you know.

"What alarms me is that the president appears to have no confidence in private enterprise and, instead, enormous trust that the government can solve our problems"

Your party has become the party of "NO" Red Meat, Class, Failed To Include Particular Classes of Americans, The party who drove the country to this Economis Crisis through Greed, Power, Corruption, Hiring withou Quals, Favoring Wallstreet, Big Corporations, Refuse To Give Minimum Wage Increases To Ordinary Americans but Kept Taking Our Money For Wage Increases each and every year, Sent Us Into A war without cause, Put Out A Contract On The Government, Favored Hedge Funds, Bundling Of Mortgage Backed Loans to the point that homeowners haven’t a clue as to who has the papers on their mortgage to allow them to fight to stay in their homes, promoted Significant CEO, Wallstreet salaries and bonuses, Look the other way when Banks pushed ill conceived loans on unspecting Americans, changed their salaries and ignored credit ratings knowing these folks were not qualified, all in the name of making a bundle,

Now you have the nerve to come to us and complain about the very President who has been saddled with your mess and is doing everything he can to get us out and you are complaining?

Your party has no ideas, just complaints, they are living in the 18th century and we have moved on to the 21 century with new ideas and innovation.  You did not offer one solution, which is a typical Republican.

That’s why your party is in the wilderness and will be for the forseeable future.

you made up  the following like Republicans always do.

Obama also wants the government to end the subsidies available to companies like Sallie Mae that facilitate low-cost student loans. Instead, he wants the federal government to take on that job. My guess is that, before long, we’ll be graduating people in their 30s, taking into account the years they will need to wade through the bureaucracy in search of funding. Never mind that meddling with the industry has already driven scores of companies out of business and severely constricted the availability of student loans.

This is so not true. You should be ashamed but Republicans are never that.

The President to rescind the tax cuts for the Wealthy so there are no surprises here no matter how you SPIN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But you are having you say and we are having ours, that’s how Democracy works!

So glad the President is making this decision.  Also glad to see the Military Commanders give him their advice which he is in complete agreement.  Those naysayers are not military experts and would do well to stop commenting on areas that are not within their areas of expertise.

Pelosi should have not uttered a word.  I was dissapointed in her.  Neither should Reid.  The President is making the decisions as he should with no favortism.  Good for him

Our President has inherited a huge mess and it would be nice if these Pundits and Media so called know it alls would back off and just let him do his job.

When President Bush was in office we barely heard a word, now that we hve a good President, everyone has to give their opinion and it doesn’t mean anything. The Economist are drowned out by the daily grind of Cable TV Reporters, Anchors and Pundits.

Thank goodness Americans don’t count on these folk for advice, we do our own research on the issues and share it with family, friends, neighbors and that we have a President looking out for Ordinary Americans.

Thank you Mr. President!

It would also be great if this site would call him Mr. President or President Obama not Obama. It’s a matter of respect for the person who holds the highest office in the land.

Just my thoughts! 

 

Glad to hear the President is rescinding the rule.  When we choose professions we are well aware of the requirements.  Religion is not part of deciding on many careers.  If so then those individuals should only go into professions that agree their beliefs. 

Many of us are Christians, however there are those who simply don’t understand that the most important thing that we want in this life is eternal life with God the Father.  He made it a CHOICE.  He is not forcing us we must choose him.  As a result everything in life is a choice because God is the ultimate DECIDER.

Those choices are between the person and GOd the Father because any consequences are on them. not the general public.

It’s amazing to me that many claim to be Christians however, forget the primary CHOICE they have been given the most important one in this life.  Yet they still try to make decisions for others.  They cannot interceed for the person with GOD, it’s between each of us and GOd.  These are personal relationships.

Christian, Yes I am and I wished those who love to make choices for others would actually get this part of Bibical teachings.I might disagree with your choices but I don’t have the right to make them for you.

Only for our children as they grow because that is a Bibical teaching as well.

I am puzzled, WHY IS IT THAT WOMEN ARE NOT AWARE THAT 2 WEEKS AGO CONGRESS HELD A VOTE TO CONSIDER CHANGING THE EQUAL PAY LAWS TO PAY WOMEN THE SAME AS MEN AND JOHN MCCAIN REFUSED TO RETURN TO WASHINGTON AND VOTE AND SAID IT WOULD CAUSE WOMEN TO FILE LAWSUITS. THE PRESIDENT ALSO AGREED AND SAID THE SAME THING, FUNNY APPARENTLY THEY BELIEVED THAT EMPLOYERS WOULD NOT PAY WOMEN THE SAME PAY AS A MAN ON THE SAME JOB BECAUSE IF THEY DID THERE WOULD BE NO LAWSUITS. SO MUCH FO BELIEVING THAT EMPLOYERS WOULD DO THE RIGHT THING. THIS VOTE WAS THE RESULT OF A SUPREME COURT CASE IN WHICH A WOMAN AFTER 20 YEARS ON THE SAME JOB AS 15 MEN FOUND OUT SHE WAS MAKING 20% LESS. THE SUPREME COURT RULED THAT SHE DID NOT FILE WITHIN THE REQUIRED TIMEFRAME. HOWEVER, SHE DID NOT KNOW DURING THE REQUIRED TIME PERIOD OF FILING. SO RUTH BADER GINGSBURG REFERRED THE CASE TO THE CONGRESS AND ASKED THEM TO CHANGE THE LAW. THE REPUBLICANS BLOCKED THE VOTE IN THE SENATE. WOMEN WHY ARE WE NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT SOMETHING WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET FOR 200 YEARS. WHY IS THE MEDIA SILENT/ WHY ARE WE SILENT. THE TAMPA PAPER CALLED OUT SEN. MARTINEZ FOR VOTING AGAINST THE BILL.

It’s never too late to tell the truth. Considering the state of our current adverse economic crisis the worst in our history from loosing homes, jobs, pensions, high gas, food, our heroes dying in the thousands, their families suffering some sleeping on the street, 4,000 heroes/soldiers diagnosed with PTSD and cannot get the help they need we need to know any and everything that we can about any possible mistakes to learn from them and avoid them in the future There’s no chance that any administration will ever come forward and tell the truth, we know that. Scott came with the President from Tx and is a close personal and family friend so he is definitely an insider. We all know that had he come out he would have been fired and his family would have suffered as well. Yes, he should have come out sooner but that does not mean he’s not telling the truth. Considering our state of affairs we must read the book and consider every mistake carefully to ensure that we the people and the media are not lead down another path that brings so much destruction to our lives and others in the world.
