US Government owns the mortgage companies, is in the process of taking over another 15% of economy with Obama care, and owns 33% of GM and there are knuckle heads who think we live in a capitalistic society? Some people even believe we have a laissez-faire type economy and it could not be further from the truth. Our education system is much worse than I was lead to believe.

You are a bigot. Using a homosexual slur as a name for a political movement that you disagree with is still bigotry. So, voting against banning same sex marriages gives you a license to hurl homosexual slurs? I'm not sure what state you live in, maybe Tennessee, but your vote wouldn't mean squat unless you lived in a state where it could have made an actual difference. Voting for a cause that you know will lose at the ballot box is nothing more than a way for you to feel good about yourself without making a difference. Congratulations...

I thought most of us were taught at school that our true economic system is a mixed model. I'm on the "wrong" side of 35, so maybe education changed that much between the time I graduated from middle school and high school until today.

The right conviently forgets that they were the first to SELF DESCRIBE the tea party as "teabaggers". They wanted to tea bag DC before DC tea bagged them. Maddow was one of the first people to turn the table on the them.

Show proof that the tea party self described themselves as teabaggers. But let's say this is correct and a local tea party chapter did that. It is still not what the tea party calls itself, and on top of that the progressives to use this term for the tea party is showing their bigotry by describing them with the a homosexual slur. I'm sure progressives (Rahm Emmanuel excluded) do go around calling people f@ggots just because they hold a different political view point. So why is the term "*********" acceptable to progressives? It just shows that bigotry can be found everywhere, especially within progressive circles.

I vote for what I believe in. Banning same-sex marriages is wrong and I would've voted that way no matter which state it was in. It just so happens that I live in a state with a bunch of retarded conservatives (of course, that's being redundant).
A conservative calling a liberal "bigot" is the height of hypocrisy.

You're a stupid racist, although I'm pretty sure you didn't vote for Obama.
How can voting for or against a mulatto be raciest. You know being a half-breed has it's advantages. theOtherChit4brains is just acting mendacious again. Fool.
