At least he seems willing to fight the Progressive/Socialist agenda of destroying the USA.
Sue Lowden's health care record is a disgrace.

Where do these whackomoles get their ideology from anyway? Destroying America? They want "their America back." Where did it go? Towards evolving? "Their America" A segregationist country that THEY control? Tell them the dryer has stopped and their sheets and hoods are ready
It's called the land of the free moron. If you want socialism go to a socialist country. You pulled the wool over the eyes of the people, but for only a very short time. Reid is going to pasture.
go_rebels,
Question for you - if you hate 'socialism' so much, how exactly do you justify being a supporting fan of an outright 'socialist' institution such as UNLV?
Aa a teabaggin neoCon, all the wealth redistribution, affirmative action and minority entitlements should make you sick. And let me guess, you wear your UNLV gear proudly, attend games, cheer them on, and see absolutely no hypocrisy or irony in your actions, right?
Put your money where your mouth is, Con. You should be standing outside the Mack with your ignant signage protesting, instead of inside cheering on the marxists...errr...socialists....errrr communists. You can't be anti-socialism and support UNLV athletics. Well, that is, unless you are a complete hypocrite. Which you are. Congrats!
I love it how the right-wingers pick & choose what they consider socialism...
We have had numerous socialistic leaning programs for years and yet suddenly the "save the nation from socialism" group come running to the rescue. "Baby Tark" is one of those people...
I believe "danny boy" is much more concerned about getting elected to the U.S. Senate that he is in actually saving us from socialism....
I wonder if "Little Tark" protested regularly against federal money that UNLV received during the three plus years that he walked the campus & attended classes at UNLV? I think we all know the answer to that question, don't we?
"danny boy" appears to be 100% Republican....he has "selective amnesia" and "cherry picks" his facts & information to try and justify his stance.....Nothing new there!
Once again "El_Lobo" Talk's and Talk's and Talk's
AND THEN SAYS NOTHING!!!
Why doesn't the registration form for the ballot advocacy group reflect its affiliation with the Tarkanian campaign?
POWERPLAY....
It's a real shame that you're still locked in middle school when it comes to reading, writing, thinking and comprehension. I guess I could write my post in "pig" Latin for you....you're use to reading & writing that!
Don't get discouraged my little friend. One must learn to stand before they can walk, and they must learn to walk before they can run...
Keep working on standing.....it will come sooner or later!
>>>go_rebels,
Question for you - if you hate 'socialism' so much, how exactly do you justify being a supporting fan of an outright 'socialist' institution such as UNLV?<<<
LOL!! JahReb nailed it!!!
I wonder if go_rebels uses the roads, drinks the water, has ever called for Metro's help, needed the fire department, or any other of the innumerable social services provided by the state? Maybe it (go_rebels) has no connection with reality just like all the other regressive/repressive/Republican/tea baggers?
go_rebels Who the hell are you to tell anyone to go anywhere? As you write about your views you want to deny others thier constitutional rights to do the same . Spoken like a true Fox News,Rush,extremest right wing media idiot. Being a rebel fan kind of explains your deficiencies. Nit wit.
Tark would not know a socialist if his towel chewing dad explained it to him. He is one of the most underperforming people alive.
The most anti-Obama, anti-socialist, Glenn Beck/Teabag loving person I know - their spouse works for the U.S. Postal Service.
I don't think they realize if all 'socialistic elements' from our society were eliminated, their spouse would be making 2 dollars an hour working 16 hour shifts with zero benefits. That would mean lower taxes for people like me, but what kind of society would I live in as a result? And how high would my insurance premiums be with uninsured indigents that they would become clogging up the hospitals? And on and on and on and on.
People like this person, and Lil' Tark, etc. never get it and they never will.
Does littletark suck on wet towels like his dad? If so, that should disqualify him from running for any public office.
Hilarious MWCRob! Hilarious. The hypocrisy is mind-boggling
JahReb; Ok, I don't get it. How are you a socialist if you attend UNLV? How are you a socialist if you support the Rebels?
"How are you a socialist if you attend UNLV? How are you a socialist if you support the Rebels?"
How are you a Socialist if you receive subsidies directly from the government to help pay for your health insurance, but not a Socialist if your employer receives government subsidies, in the form of a tax deduction, to help provide you with health insurance?
"At least he seems willing to fight the Progressive/Socialist agenda of destroying the USA."
Ok, two little bits here... The root word of Progressive is Progress. Doesn't that mean to move forward?
And the other... Who exactly is destroying the USA? Of course you must be referring to greed in the public sector that caused the financial crisis that lead to the melt-down of our economy. How exactly does that relate to a Socialist agenda?
Be specific and spelling counts for 50% of your grade.
I love it! I don't have to buy insurance and the state still has to take care of me.
Oh, wait, Doesn't that sounds like socialism?
If we could all think alike, we would all agree.
There would be no dissent. The Liberals and Progressives would agree with the Conservatives.
Hey, would could have one political party and if any one speaks a disagreeable sentence, they would be sent to a rehabilitation facility.
Is this the Conservative vision of Freedom?
I disagree with what you say, so you must be demonized!
Thanks Rush Limbaugh, Thanks Glenn Beck.
Thanks Rupert the Aussie Murdoch. I appreciate your coursening the dialogue. Now all the Crazies that you have been stirring up for years are going to commit crimes in your name. Maybe Americans will wise up to your democracy destroyin' ways. One can only hope.
It doesn't matter if the GOP nominates Jeremy Strohmeyer or Dipak Desai, Harry is going to lose. All of the emotion and energy is against Harry, and Harry has never been particularly popular to begin with.
i thought little danny trying to squeeze every last drop out of daddy's name tark was lawyer...
seems to me he is a pretty dumb lawyer...
you can do whatever you want to the nevada constitution danny boy...
doesn't matter even a tiny bit...
what a numb nuts...
this is even more pathetic than monkey boy gibbons and his lawsuit...
what the hell is wrong with these stupid pathetic ugly lying always making threats or fear mongering republicans???
It's obvious that most of the people that have commented here don't know what socialism is.
Also comparing right wing conservatism to "brown shirt" or national socialism is incorrect. National Socialism, Facism, and Communism are left wing ideaologies. One of the main bastions of right wing thought is less government control which obviously doesn't apply to any of those three.
My reasons for opposing the healthcare "reform" is that it isn't going to reform anything. It's not going to be deficit neutral. Those cuts to Medicare aren't going to happen. The previous cuts to doctors fees will be recinded. I think we achieve a better end with less radical legislation. We need tort reform. We need to cut the interstate barriers to insurers, making a bigger marketplace. There will be a sliver of people that will fall into the crack that is leftover. That's where I think the government needs to step in. Again you don't need to do all this big legislation or spend a ton of money to help those people.
Government certainly has a role but it should be kept to a minimum. If anything involving healthcare can be called "minimum."
My big problem with the whole deal is that Republicans were absent from the actual decision making process. It was a self-imposed absence, but an absence none the less. I believe Republicans had some great ideas the could have been added to the bill to work in favor of the general public. Tort Reform was the biggest one. I still believe doctors should be under the umbrella protection of the government against civil suits. If they are criminally negligent they can still be prosecuted, but it eliminates the get-rich lawsuits.
The two party system works best when we have two parties working together.
