62. He always was just another politician.
He's taking care of those who ensured his election and to hell with everyone else.
Just another politician.

74. He was merely the lesser of two evils.
His change is in tiny increments not degrees.
He lost me before the election when he backed the TARP.
He has surrounded himself with oligarchs and his COS is
an Israel First-er.
Same tired old stuff... look at what they do not what they say.

92. Its a good bill. We all saw how enraged
the arab world was over Abu Garib. This bill helps prevent this.
I'll bet you wanted them released when President Bush was in office.

65. What a choice that was.
Sadly, Obama/Biden are better than McCain/Palin.
"Hope" and "change" are for suckers.

52. and?
The hate crime bill was a step backwards in equal rights and was only meant as a smoke and mirror play.
We need Universal healthcare for everyone and those photos should be released immediatly..
I am sorry, but victims of assault because of "hate" DO NOT deserve more justice than anyone else who is a victim of assault for whatever the reason. ITS CALLED EQUAL RIGHTS and justice.
This is common sense and what america is supposed to stand for.
Punish the crime not the reason behind it.
ITs simple.
and before you start, I have gay family members and love them more than anything.
I would be outraged if my brother was assaulted because he is gay, but I would be equally outraged if my straight sister was assaulted for her pocketbook.
There is no legitimate arguement why my sisters attackers should get a lesser sentence than my brothers attackers in this situation. And my brother agrees with this.
Get with the program, thought crimes are the cornerstone of the left.

54. You really don't understand the nature of a hate crime, do you?
if I kill Mr. Goldstein because he pissed me off, or slept with my wife or something, then i'm a murderer who had a beef with Mr. Goldstein. odds are, after doing my time, I won't be a repeat offender
if I kill Mr. Goldstein because he's a Jew, then i'm a murderer who has a beef with an entire community of people. odds are that i will be a repeat offender after doing my time.
In the latter case then, because of the greater danger I present to society, there do need to be laws that extend my sentence accordingly.
Welcome to DU. Hopefully it'll be educational

I agree, these "special" laws are dangerous.

104. Thought should never be a crime.
I agree with the poster above.
More severe punishments for "hate crimes" should be banned as unconstitutional violations of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment.

Rofl, Obama is losing the support of moderates for being a left-wing kook. And he's losing the support of the left-wing kooks for being too moderate. Democrat cannibalism, love it. Methinks Mr. Healing Light didn't see this one coming.
