“Odious” is a word that could describe 50 Democrats who occupy some seat or another in Congress…..The last Republican I remember who belonged to the “Odious” club was Pennsylvania’s Arlen Specter. He was so “Odious” he decided to prove it by becoming a Democrat during his last, and final term in office.
Dick Durbin was less odious until Barack Obama became president. Dishonest and devious, untrustworthy demagogues breed odiousness throughout clans of on sort or another. It is endemic among people who have forgotten the meaning of Truth.
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough interviewed Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer, asking him about the charge by Majority Leader Harry Reid that the conservative philanthropist David Koch is “un-American.” Scarborough asked Schumer whether he associated himself with Reid’s statement.
Senator Schumer began his answer by ducking and weaving, shifting attention from Reid’s claim to Schumer’s disagreement with the Kochs’ preferred policies.
“But, senator, can’t we have a disagreement about how charity is funded without calling somebody un-American?” Scarborough countered. He continued to press Schumer to answer his question. “Do you think David Koch is un-American?”

It is difficult for me to understand, coming from Australia, how dissent equals treason even if only be called it rather than charged with. Here you can hate the government or not, like policies or not but overt jingoism seems less prevalent.
It exists of course those who tote the stickers ‘if you don’t like it leave’ and other bits or worldly wisdom but all in all I think the only thing considered un-Australian is distaste of the Aussie barbeque and boxing day cricket match and even then it is looked with pity – poor fools don’t know what they’re missing.
The disgraceful state of affairs in the US Congress, and the White House, should be as embarrassing to all Americans as it is to Jenni. That steady stream of self-serving, idiotic, malcontented, misguided, and dishonest political buffoons we have elected to serve the people, has our country wrapped around the axle. They are nothing to shake a stick at. Unlike our founding fathers, they are responsible for the downward spiral of America’s moral values and its overall decline in the quality of its education; they have gravely compromised its founding values and ideals.
Any sane and morally sound person should applaud the Australian societal model; particularly, when it comes to immigration. Undoubtedly Australia, which was once used by the English crown as a place to house its criminals, is a country worthy of emulation. There is no misguided compassion down under. You do the crime, you do the time.
“The wise are glad to be instructed, but babbling fools fall flat on their faces.” Proverbs 10:8
