Now they should sit down, shut up and quit getting in the way. Bring back the Clinton tax rates and quit playing politics with the American people.

You might ask D-Barney Frank and D-Charlie Schumer,,,who in 2006 got the passage way cleared for all of those 'no money down, 125% ARM, no qualifying' mortgage loans flying in high gear,,,,resulting and creating the 2008-'09 crash as the housing bust cut the knees out from under the financial system and the auto industry nearly collapsed. There lies your answer, but you can't identify with it or are unwilling to accept the blame.

Thank the liberal whackos D-Barney Frank and D-Chuckie Schumer, both who lead the push for allowing lending institutions to get more unqualified home buyers into homes, which they (the buyers) couldn't afford. Credit default swaps among lenders and investors soon followed,, and the rest is history..... < - $ >

HOPE & CHANGE > moving FORWARD,,,FOUR MORE YEARS!

A LESSON IN IRONY

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 46 million people.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

This ends today's lesson in irony.

"It's not my job to support you as a politician, Mr. President. It's my job to support you as Commander-in-Chief," McChrystal replied.

Not satisfied with just accepting McChrystal's resignation, the President made a cheap parting shot. "I bet when I die you'll be happy to piss on my grave."

The General saluted: "Mr. President, I always told myself that after leaving the Army I'd never stand in line again."

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), now up for reauthorization, is in major need of revision. Its billion-dollar-a-year price tag spent by the radical feminists to pursue their ideology and goals (known as feminist pork) make it an embarrassment to members of Congress who voted for it.

For 30 years, the feminists have been pretending that their goal is to abolish all sex discrimination, eliminating all gender differences no matter how reasonable. When it comes to domestic violence, however, feminist dogma preaches that there is an innate gender difference: Men are naturally batterers, and women are naturally victims (i.e., gender profiling).

Starting with its title, VAWA is just about as sex discriminatory as legislation can get. It is written and implemented to oppose the abuse of women and to punish men.

Ignoring the mountain of evidence that women initiate physical violence nearly as often as men, VAWA has more than 60 passages in its lengthy text that exclude men from its benefits. For starters, the law's title should be changed to Partner Violence Reduction Act, and the words "and men" should be added to those 60 sections.

The law should be rewritten to deal with the tremendous problem of false accusations so that its priority can be to help real victims. A Centers for Disease Control survey found that half of all partner violence was mutual, and 282 scholarly studies reported that women are as physically aggressive, or more aggressive, than men.

Currently used definitions of domestic violence that are unacceptably trivial include calling your partner a naughty word, raising your voice, causing "annoyance" or "emotional distress," or just not doing what your partner wants. The law's revision should use an accurate definition of domestic violence that includes violence, such as: "any act or threatened act of violence, including any forceful detention of an individual, which results or threatens to result in physical injury."

Women who make domestic violence accusations are not required to produce evidence and are never prosecuted for perjury if they lie. Accused men are not accorded fundamental protections of due process, not considered innocent until proven guilty and in many cases are not afforded the right to confront their accusers.

Legal assistance is customarily provided to women but not to men. Men ought to be entitled to equal protection of the law because many charges are felonies and could result in prison and loss of money, job and reputation.

BJ,,,,,Thanks for posting,,,you beat me to it,,and probably stated it better than I.

Don't think women are abusive, aggressive, domestic violence perpatrators? Case in Arizona court right now, this jealous gal had a sexual encounter with her EX-boyfriend, and while he was showering afterwards, stabbed him twenty-some times in the chest, shot him point-blank in the face with a gun, and finally made triple sure he was dead by slitting his throat wide open

This is NOT one isolated incident......women attacking men, happens every day!

===========================================================

If there is ever going to be a law, it should be entitled:

Violence Against HUMANS Act

and not be discriminatory against either men, or women, only!
