Democrats are FAIL. Now that we have a jobs crisis, they hold a summit on health care bill that won’t apply until 2014.
Will the new jobs bill help hardest hit areas?
I agree with this blog except for the call to respect the government.
Why should I have confidence in this congress to create a real jobs policy?

The Black Church Is Dead
yeah agree with above comment. And also the message of the church gets drowned out by the 24 hr media assault.
and i don’t know for sure, but leadership is a problem.
looking back, and i’m not black btw. it’s funny to see the church disappear so effectively. Just like horse drawn carriages or something.
I have to consider my church as rzim.org

No conservatives are replying to candc. It’s obvious why. Conservatives can only talk when their myth of the “cadillac-driving welfare mom” is visible in the mirror.

As a progressive- I agree with Linda. Those are jobs with dignity. Now we have to get that first person to pay off the credit card, cancel the cable tv, and hire someone.
America's Dirty Little Secret: Who's Really Poor...
You are really wondering out loud why so called poor people w/o money are not seen out shopping. Hard to compose a civil comment to you. But I’ll try. You can only take a job loss if you have a safety net. Most people don’t. Your argument seems to be that the recession doesn’t exist because it doesn’t affect you. Well it will, when poverty strains social services you...

Public Education Gone (Absurdly) Wrong
man this blog is 100 times longer than the letter it criticizes. And the blogger doesn’t really prove the existence of the supposed roadblocks to reform. incompetence and negligence yes. Hope the blogger can clean up the post next time. Cheers!

The Media's Billion Dollar Ad for Evan Bayh
Whn Bayh said “i’m leaving because of gridlock” The news has no damn brains. They can’t peel a layer off the onion because they couldn’t get to the truth if they had it served to them on a platter.
because everything they say has to be balanced, they’ve lost the ability to think.
Help Wanted: Jobs for Low-Income Working Families
Mr. Roberts in this blog:”For the good of the nation, it is time to act. “
Thanks Mr. Roberts.
This crisis is a defining moment. Although poverty is at a manageable level, we’ve chosen to shut our neighbors out and send them into the wilderness. The truth is that poverty won’t go away. By choosing not to fight poverty, we’ve just created more of it.
Zachery Kouwe RESIGNED: New York Times Plagiarist...
This dude plagarized a few sentences. literally short to medium length sentences, and in 1 case, 2 sentences. why is this called plagarism with a big p? those sentences are standard sentences, if you have a fact, there’s 1 standard way sentence is a standard way to write that fact in english. Management are fucking cowards, you screwed the help.
