they deserve major backlash

getting cancer (and a slew of medical bills)
should make them rethink their shenanigans and games with peoples lives.

Last year my friend was Dx with stage 4 cancer, lost his job (and insurance) and now has millions in medical bills. 55 radiation treatments, Chemo (5k for one dose)...and he needed four.


The healthcare marketplace /Obamacare was the only thing that saved him from suicide. This is a true story and I'm sure any cancer patients have experienced similar. A cancer patient does NOT have to be tearing his hair out worried about paying 1,000.00 a month for meds (not counting drs and hospitalizations, he was in hospital about 5x in a year to be re-hydrated)


Repugs are surely the most clueless and inhumane.

Then

why didn't he speak out in 2002?

Sorry, I like him as an actor but: American Sniper misses the point on SOOOOOO many levels.

I think Americans with a brain are finally exhausted from propaganda and lies.

And God bless other artists who spoke out right after 911.

The divisiveness and Rove-like vitriol will hopefully be dead and buried in a few years. I cannot even watch mainstream propaganda anymore. The only part of Oscars I could watch was Patricia Arquette speaking out for the disenfranchised American workers. I am so tired of network trash, spin, and "corporate "news" ".

Its circling the drain.

Yellow cake

in Niger...as per crooks from 2001.....


I was happy to see H'wood's propaganda ("American Sniper&quot by Eastwood which is yet more disinfo, and ZERO accountability for the frauds who started wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, were snubbed at Oscars ceremony last night. I have not watched the Oscars in years, but it gave me a semblance of hope that maybe some Americans are no longer buying the pap and propaganda that some with an agenda crank out to justify illegal wars for billionaires and big oil.


Sean Penn: kudos...can you write a film someday about accountability in the US .....people need to start speaking out against injustice.

OP love ur handle similar to me.

just bcs

Veterans Today was infiltrated, doesn't mean questioning things is wrong. It saddens me the point we are at now in The US "media". I honestly am done with believing any of it.

linktv.org at least discusses social issues, and doesn't spew 24/7 capitalist propaganda.

I will NEVER forget "just go shopping" quote from GWB, after 911 occurred.

Very sick and sad.

Graham Greene's "The Comedians"

saw the film ages ago, but the book is just amazing.

lol

If downloading stupid youtubes is immoral, then what do we make of war criminal Donald Rumsfeld, Cheney, et. al.


I am personally sick of the lame discourse in "US msm" and "free social media" like fakebook, owned by In Q-Tel/cia.

....Producers make tons of "immoral" money off Hollywood garbage. as do war criminals.

Youtube is the LEAST of Americas problems.

I sorry but the fact that stuff like this is discussed in our nation these days is just , extraneous. Its what corporate media wants. weapons of mass distraction, and garbage reality trash tv

reality check for politicians feeding at public trough

"its really a problem with decline in marriage rates"

.....yes, because women work and have to feed their kids, and some divorce because marriage in a bad economy crumbles.

woops, I forgot reality has nothing to do with white rethug male politicians who live in a bubble.

good job

Good job Obama...

Rethugs will now start discussing abortion .

lol @Boehner, I wont sleep tonight with that image in my head. He is a symbol for everything in the GOP, angry, nasty, sell-outs and corporate wh*res.

excellent thread thank u

For some reason, in the past 13 years, I have seen a culture of hate and intolerance increasing at an alarming rate.

It is a disgrace what is happening to our environment, fracking and corporatism etc.

As a female I don't blame it all on a patriarchy, BUT the rage and vitriol, for some odd reason always seems to come from the "religious" right. PNAC neo-con pigs.

Cheney for example. What a disgusting human being. People like that will surely have karma coming to them someday. I could never live with myself knowing I sent millions to death and u$ele$$ wars all for lining my wallet.

I have a conscience though, sociopaths don't.
