I hate to break it to you Dems supporting Obama. This article is not well researched. Obama has had two votes dealing with Yucca, and he voted to fund Yucca twice. It is curious that he wasn't present for half a dozen votes dealing with Yucca though. Perhaps it was strategy ... perhaps he really doesn't care about dealing with energy issues.
Here's one link to his vote ... you can find the other yourselves. Hey, at least you're more informed now than the author of this article.

The REAL God
It's thou shalt not murder. Killing isn't a sin.
The only people who are unreasonable are the people who think cops should have to put their lives on the line to protect a knife wielding psycho. I'd rather have the cop go home to their family than some woman who felt the need to drive across town to threaten police officers because her child beating husband ran a stop sign while speeding through a school zone. Let's not forget that she made a movement that was threatening enough that two officers simultaneously believed their was a threat to officer safety, and fired their weapons.
Those who have no training always think they can be superheros. It's not that easy so put the comic books down, and look at what a knife can do in the hands of an untrained person ... http://blogidaho.biz/knifewounds1.jpg
Yeah, it's real fair to expect a cop to unnecessarily put their lives, health, and careers on the line so cop haters like you guys don't have anything to talk about. After all, they're just cops ... right? You might not care if a cop is stabbed to death, but I do. Then there is the risk of deformity and career ending injury.
The husband said he wished he was dead, and the wife said the same. She got her wish. I'm surprised you aren't applauding the police for their forward thinking on the subject of euthanasia. This wasn't murder ... this was suicide by cop.
So now that we know the police were telling the truth ... when will the Sun, and other commentors, apologize for attacking the Henderson PD as liars and murderers?
I'd also like to know why the Sun hasn't reported that the husband has two convictions for beating up young children. Was it an attempt to keep him painted as a victim?
Bottom line is the "witnesses" have never had a story that jived with each other, or the husband. Now we find out that there was a knife, the children confirmed she was making threats of violence, and every other detail the police told the public was true. There was no cover up here, or any critical evidence the police withheld. This is exactly what the police told us happened in their public statements. This article was informative, but was also a shameless attempt to blame the police for the Sun's horrible and misleading coverage of this case.

Just because the Sun endorse Obama doesn't mean they are now exempt from reporting the truth.
Where was the Sun article on the dozens of cars with McCain stickers that had their tires slashed?
Where was the Sun's article on the Obama supporters shouting and interrupting the speech, and having to be shouted down by Palin supporters so they could hear their candidate?
Those articles don't exist because the Sun has no journalistic integrity when it comes to politics.
The Obama supporters that showed up to the rally were not being polite or civil. I've watched several YouTube videos of the Henderson rally with titles like "More Racism At Palin Rally" ... only to find NOT ONE instance of a racist comment being made. Just like the Sun, those YouTube poster are lying about racism. Obama supporters are racist for not voting for McCain because he's white.
