Profits At Largest 500 Corporations Grew By 81 Percent In 2010 - Think Progress
It would be nice if some of these companies used this kind of money to hire more workers. Or even increased their worker pay instead of CEO pay!

I'm so pissed off right now about this. I hope it doesn't pass the Senate and if it does I hope Obama vetoes it because this thing is a load of bullpuckie.

The GOP's Stealth Plan to Redefine Rape
The GOP's Stealth Plan to Redefine Rape - Mother Jones
Well they're at it again. No means no, no matter what a woman's age is. And a 12 or 13 year old isn't at the maturity level to be sleeping with someone who's 17+ and is probably taking advantage of these young women. I guess the GOP won't be happy until all entitlement programs for the poor are cut and they make women have their babies even if they were raped.

This is really crazy. It's because of what bin Laden did to this country on 9/11 so I do understand why some of it was necessary. But still it's a bit extreme. I hope that we'll be able to put a hold on some of these programs, cut or combine them. Maybe not now but someday. Because right now the important thing to do is to stay vigilant.

I'm pretty sure that taxes have nothing to do with the Holocaust seeing as the Holocaust dealt with genocide and not taxes. I can't believe this woman is trying to run for president.

Latest GOP Crap on Facebook
Let's be clear on this: OBAMA did NOT kill Bin Laden. An American soldier, who Obama just a few weeks ago was debating on whether or not to PAY, did. Obama just happened to be the one in office when our soldiers finally found Osama and took him out. This is NOT an Obama victory, but an AMERICAN victory!! REPOST IF YOU AGREE!!!
I don't agree with parts of this statement. It was the Tea Party that was yelling "Shut it down!" and not Obama. I'm pretty sure Obama wants the troops paid, who doesn't? We really should have a law in place that if the government is shut down that the military still gets paid because I don't agree with them not getting paid. Secondly, it was US Intelligence and not soldiers who found bin Laden. Obama played a big role in planning (8 months of it) this and finally gave the go head. It's because of him we didn't just bomb the place and risk killing innocent people. It seems Obama understand that there is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people. He also knew he'd need proof that bin Laden was dead. Thirdly, it's because of Obama that we got him when Bush gave up and said that he could care less where he was.
Yes, it was US Seals who killed bin Laden with Obama's go head. It's because of their hard work and dedication that the mission was accomplished and everyone came back alive. And lastly if it's an American victory, than it's my victory, it's your victory and it's Obama's victory. Obama gave credit where it was needed and if it wasn't for his good leadership who knows if we would of even gotten him. And we already saw that with bad leadership that we didn't get him because that person could of cared less if he was dead or not!
People really should listen to the news more, or read it. And not that Fox News crap, I mean the good stuff that tells someone what's really going on.

Ding! Dong! The Witch is Dead! He Got Shot in the Ass by the US Military!
Bin Laden is finally dead and it only took 10 years! But at least he's dead. I wonder how long it'll take for us to get out of Afghanistan now. Unless someone takes his place which would really suck. But I'm really happy Bin Laden's dead!
But hey, the Obama administration got him when the Bush administration couldn't! HA!
