candidates you’re a “token hire.” If you’re a conservative and you’re selected for a job over more qualified candidates you’re a “game changer.”
Black teen pregnancies? A “crisis” in black America .

According the US Census Bureau there are 305,290,868 people living in the US.  Imagine the type of stimulus the economy would get if every person living in the US were to receive $200,000.00?  That’s only $611,581,7636.00, much less than $700 billion.

The S Word by AM1090 Listener ML Cohen MD

Socialized Medicine is Here
 
It has become as predictable as the annual return of flu season and the August rush of sports physicals.  Mention comprehensive health care form or universal coverage to those on the political right and they label it “socialized medicine” as a means to squelch any further debate.  Little do they realize that [...]

Not Fighting Back by AM1090 Listener Mel

I just heard Stephanie Miller or one of her callers say that McCain is attacking Obama with stuff that is not true.  However Obama is fighting back with stuff that is fact.  That was followed with Stephanie saying that McCain can’t continue those tactics thru November.

Ridiculous Comments by AM1090 Listener Lisa

I turned on the radio to your station at 10pm Sunday, June 1st, 2008. The first thing I heard was a promo teaser with some man saying, “If Hillary thinks that she is an agent of change…blah, blah, blah,….”
I can assure you, as a life long Dem that I will never vote for another inexperienced [...]
