it is disgusting. Unless you were there or lived there, what those 1st responders went through, indescribable. But by all means, lets send money to other countries suffering from earthquakes and other gastly natural disasters, but not give medicine to those who didn't think about themselves on a horrific day. Sad just Sad

I guess the Republicans didnt suffer at the election for this as some people foolishly predicted. Im wondering where thier insurance is on this. Should we set up a fund for every public servant who risks his life during a disaster?

blacken700 · « **Reply #4 on:** December 19, 2010, 05:43:18 AM »

it just went to vote

every Republican senator voted against the bill. The action was part of the GOP's strategy of not allowing any senate action until the votes on a bill that will continue to Bush era tax cuts, including those for the very wealthy.

You know what? Tough shit. If this matter was so urgent for the RATS they should have dealt witgh this sooner than at the last second. They have had two years to deal with this.

Blacken, I didn't see that show, but thanks so much for posting it. Those 4 men, spoke the truth and to see those fucking republicans, just make me want to bang my keyboard.

They don't want to do shit because it could/would disrespect fellow Christians on the "two holiest" days of the year. Since flipping when is new years a holy holiday...

Are you from NYC? If not, I am impressed with your knowledge of the local geography.

It took me many years of chicken skin, beer and sleeping 14 hours daily to achieve this physique.

Also, the baldness was a decision I made at age 30-- it has been shown that having a large cranium is attractive to the opposite sex. I mean, I was always getting harassed by the ladies, but with this dome I practically have to beat the broads off with a stick you know what I mean?

LMAO, streetmeat is a helluva diet Georgie. I did live in NYC for 3 years and right outside in joisey but worked in NYC for 6 years. Besides, I'm half greek so Astoria almost like the motherland

Ok. Blacken. I have listened to 3 minutes of this video. I have shut if off although I will probably listen to the rest later on. The reason I have shut the video off is that I am already been pissed off at the blatant propaganda espoused by John Stewart, and then suprisingly afterward, by these guys. Your'e showing a video of Mitch McConnell saying emotional farewell speeches to colleagues and friends, which have nothing to do with the 9/11 first responders. Im glad you posted this video, because Im going to write a letter to this organization and advising them that demonizing those who are reluctant to authorize this fund is not helpfull at the end of a two year period in which we are running trillion dollar deficits. I really almost fell out of my chair when those guys took that propoganda bait that Stewart threw out to them. I really thought they would respond in more of a measured fasion.

Hmm next time some fellow americans need help then we should just keep our nose to ourselves. Got it.
No wonder this country is going to shit.

Helping the people who were the first to help out when the country was attacked? Hell no because its more important to not let the taxes rise a

So who is gonna help out the next time? Apparently nobody gives a fuck anyway so why help?

And i love how the republicans/rightwingers always talk about helping their country. This does not apply to fellow americans apparently.
I suspect this loving their country= Loving themselves and their fellow rich people and fuck the country and their fellow citizens

US politicians have made little progress on legislation that would provide more than $7bn in healthcare for emergency workers and others who became ill after breathing in dust and toxic fumes at the site of the September 11 attacks.

A bill was approved by the US House of Representatives in September, but Republicans in the Senate have consistently blocked discussion because of a deadlock over tax-cut extensions.

Al Jazeera spoke to Richard Skinner, a former fire fighter who, as a volunteer with the Fire Chiefs Association, was one of those who responded to emergency calls at the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001.
