Orthodox Christians, Catholic Christians, Protestant Christians, evangelical Christians and Pentecostal Christians all believe in the Trinity.

**************...Lanny Davis plays the purity card:<br /><br />*********************<br /><br />Among the most hypocritical aspects of certain purist Democrats who call themselves liberals is their willingness to attack any Democrat who veers even slightly from liberal orthodoxy.<br /><br />Sadly, their attacks almost always turn personal, substituting name-calling for thoughtful analysis of the facts. <br /><br />Oregon Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden is one of the Senate’s leading progressives, with a voting record on every major issue defining liberalism that is second to none.<br /><br />Yet he has also been a target of attack by purist liberals — because he has shown a willingness to mix liberal approaches (relying on government to assure social equity) with conservative principles (relying on private market competition and individual choices) to achieve traditional progressive social goals.<br /><br />In 2010, Wyden introduced the Healthy Americans Act (HAA), co-sponsored by Utah conservative Sen. Bob Bennett.<br /><br />It combined a commitment to national healthcare coverage and the individual mandate with allowing everyone to cash out their employer-provided insurance to exercise their choices to purchase insurance among competing private insurance companies. [An alternative reform I supported.]<br /><br />[skip]<br /><br />But it never gained traction among the liberal base of the Democratic Party, and the Obama White House never seriously considered it.<br /><br />Now, in recent months, Wyden has joined with conservative Republican Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.) to come up with a Medicare reform proposal that reflects a similar mixture of liberal and conservative principles.<br /><br />It combines the “Medicare Guarantee” — ensuring all seniors access to Medicare as we know it — with providing seniors an option to purchase private Medicare policies that would compete for their business.<br /><br />In short: If you want to keep your Medicare, you do. If you want to shop and, with some federal subsidies, purchase private insurance, you can.<br /><br />What could possibly be wrong with that?<br /><br />*********************<br /><br />http://thehill.com/opinion/columnists/lanny-davis/217469-wyden-ryan-plan-deserves-a-lookMax (short for Maxine)http://url.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-26489672787763878172012-04-09T14:14:47.394-04:002012-04-09T14:14:47.394-04:00Showing your ID -

Essentially, Montana is arguing that Citizens United only applies to federal laws and elections, not state ones.</i><br /><br /><i>Two Montana corporations are asking the court to make a summary judgment to the contrary; their lead counsel argues that otherwise, "free speech will be seriously harmed," because states anywhere could "ban core political speech." But Ginsburg and Breyer earlier wrote that the case "will give the Court an opportunity to consider whether, in light of the huge sums currently deployed to buy candidates' allegiance, Citizens United should continue to hold sway."</i><br /><br />http://www.newser.com/story/143671/supreme-court-agrees-to-reconsider-citizens-united.htmlMax (short for Maxine)http://url.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-34120877997268849312012-04-09T11:35:15.309-04:002012-04-09T11:35:15.309-04:00When the people fear their government, there is ty...When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.<br />Thomas JeffersonJoe Xnoreply@blogger.com
