  • Why would Windshield wipers only move up a little and stop?

    They were stuck on ice on windshield and Ever since I moved them manually - now they won't work properly? If I push them all the way down- they come up a little and freeze up but I can hear the motor trying to work?

  • Why did the GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN COST 24 BILLION?

    Isn't that number a little conservative in terms of costs caused by Republicans? What about all the jobs lost from the Sequester and lives lost from 2 illegal wars?

  • Will you OBEY your NEW SUPREME LEADER TEA CRUZ in 2016?

    A GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE......................... You must succumb! to all his demands after all! TED CRUZ and his Tea's destroyed the Democracy as you know in 2013.after he crashed the economy and turned Obamacare web site into OBAMACAT web site ( a site for his strange desires of cat love) Made sure that no one receives any government health care or any type of government aide. Left millions to die. Of course there were riots and fires and wholes cities destroyed but you can never find that on him state controlled News Station ( only one on) of course- Fox News.

    Dr Seuss is still on book shelves - in fact the ONLY ones your kids are allowed to read. No one is allowed to gay marry or be a democrat and Tea is the National Drink!

  • Are the Teas trying to purposely create crisis and chaos in government?

    So they can overthrow the American government? Kind of like what happened in Germany in the 1920's and 1930's - but they have to push us into default to make it happen?

  • THIS SHUTDOWN IS NOT ABOUT A BUDGET?

    In short, this shutdown is not about the budget.

    So what’s it about?

    Well, maybe constitutional democracy.

    The guys who set up this constitutional democracy 224 years ago deliberately established a system in which it is hard to make major changes. First, the faction that would make the change (or, in this case, unmake it) has to win elections, usually at least two of them, enough to take control of both houses of Congress and the presidency.

    The Republicans who want to get rid of “Obamacare” did win part of one election in 2010, taking control of the House of Representatives. But they didn’t win enough. Then they lost last year’s election. Their candidate who promised to repeal Obamacare lost to the president after whom it is nicknamed. Under the constitutional democracy established 224 years ago, then, they don’t get to make their major change.

    Some of them seem to be in denial, not only about the elections that did happen but about the elections that will happen. In this constitutional democracy, they come around every two years. If the health care law is a failure – if people cannot get affordable coverage or companies start laying off workers rather than provide health insurance for them – then Republicans will almost surely win control of the Senate next year and the presidency in 2016.

    Then they’ll get to make their major change.

    That’s constitutional democracy. What’s happening now is … well, not quite an attempted coup d’état, but a step in that direction. It is an attempt to impose the losing party’s policy preference without going through the process of putting that policy preference into the form of legislation, getting it passed by both houses of Congress and then approved by the president (or overriding his veto).

    That process is called constitutional democracy. This shutdown is an attempt to subvert constitutional democracy. Some of us who knew him suspect that Ronald Reagan would not have approved.
