Know what your legislator stands for

Posted: March 5, 2013 - 7:23pm

Know what your

legislator stands for

In the Feb. 28 Brainerd Dispatch’s article “Push for gay marriage under way at Capitol,” I was appalled to see in large print 10A Rep. John Ward  say he is “undecided ... on this hot-button issue.”

John has been an activist and advocate for gay marriage at our Capitol, but do not take my word for it, take his. Go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5MwhjIo3wc. Or just type “John Ward on Marriage” in your search bar on your computer and watch the first Utube video that pops up.

Be sure to watch to the end where he is yelling very passionately how we must allow “these people to marry.” John I wish you were as proud of what you believe here at home as you are at the Capitol.

Be informed on what your representative stands for or votes for, as it will affect or infect your children’s grandchildren.

Doug Kern,

Rural Brainerd

The stench of hatred and bigotry there in rural Brainerd

It appears there is a strong sense of bigotry and hatred in Doug Kern's reference to the inevitible granting of civil rights to gays, "...as it will affect or infect your children’s grandchildren."

Like the decline of the regressive GOP and what it stands for, it is only inevitible that the rightwingnuts' opposition to giving gays the same constitutional rights as other Americans.

Whether it's this legislative session, or next, it's just a matter of time. Then our children's grandchildren will look back and ask, "Why were gay people denied the same rights as other Americans? It seems so hateful, unscientific and un-American."

Jaysoffhisrocker likely won't see much of it in the jackpines

He won't see much of it in his backwoods jackpine for a while. But if he ever comes outside of his backward world, he will see that the world has changed around him.

He will never accept this reality, but gays have been around since the beginning of time, and there always will be. He will never accept the science that indicates that it is more than just a chosen lifestyle. Why? Because he and his ilk live in rightwing world.

But then all he can do to defend his primitive beliefs is to lob his abortion tverd.

Not that it matters, but what do you Echo Whakos think of this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPKKQnijnsM&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Is it a big lie from those socialist, communist Marxist fellas? Is it irrelevent? Or are you incapable of understanding it?

So What Nutty

I don't resent the 1%. Along the way, they (or their ancestors) have earned capital, and now they put their capital to work.

What I do resent is the politicians, who accept money from the people in exchange for passing laws, under the pretense of regulation, that is only intended to limit competition.

I especially resent the liar in the White House, who acts like he cares about the little guy, while winking at the top 1%. Along the way, the liar in the White House has increased his net worth over 1000%. Take Obamacare for example (the name is a misrepresentation, because Obama had virtually nothing to do with it), why are we insuring the uninsured. It would be cheaper for the society to pay the actual medical bills for those who cannot pay. Insuring the uninsured is just a reward to the big insurance companies.

I also resent the bottom feeders, such as yourself, that want the government take from the haves, and give it to the have-nots.

Nutty, can you smell that reality.

Our State Government is fleecing us.

Nutty, can you smell the reality in this state? Our State Government is fleecing us. A lot of the legislation that is working its way through the state legislature is designed to reward the unions for their support of the DFL.

Do you see all the legislation designed to add more money to the pension funds of public employees, because they aren't happy with their ROI. Why should we have to add more money to their retirement. Maybe they should add more money to my retirement accounts.

I agree.

I agree. It is quite the racket when you think about it.

I have a couple of customers that filed bankruptcy and can't pay the money they owe me. I think the government should pay me. After all, the rich aren't paying their fair share, so they should pay me that money.

If somebody wants something, they should just look to the government. LMAO.

You are so clearly stupid proxy chumps for the super-rich

You brainwashed proxy chumps for the super-rich would still be chanting your mindless class warfare rants, so clearly against your own interests, even if the top 1% in this country had 90% of the wealth. You are simply too far gone to comprehend such things.

Jeezzusss, you Echo Whackos are fricken' crazy!

Nutty, don't hate me because I have more than you.

Nutty, don't hate me because I have more than you. My high school freshman has his own business and makes more per hour than you Nutty.

If you hate everyone who has more than you, you will have to move to Somalia to find peace.

[filtered word] didn't learn history

The crazed idiot actually said, "I don't resent the 1%. Along the way, they (or their ancestors) have earned capital, and now they put their capital to work."

He never learned that our country was founded on, and has always had the principle of not being run by dynasties. He believes in royal entitlement.

He still believes in that disproven trickle-down myth, that has failed us so miserably.

What a stupid, useless POS! Oh, and obviously that applies to you other Echo Whackos.

Nutty is pathetic.

Nutty is jealous and lazy, both intellectually and physically. It has consumed her to the point that she is a "hate-monger." Her support for the Occupy slobs show who Nutty is. Nutty relates well to Occupy slobs.

Nutty is so inllectually lazy that she projects her own undesirable thoughts, motivations, desires, and feelings such as jealousy and greed onto others, psychological projection.

Nutty also has a false consensus effect, whereby she has a broad tendency to believe that others are similar to her.

Therefore, when she calls others greedy, extreme, wackjobs, etc., it's because she has those character flaws, and assumes that everyone is like her.

Lund isn't about free speech. He tried to censor Don Bye

In addition to calling Don Bye a liar 7 times in his unhinged rant of a letter, Tom Lund said he attempted to get the Echo to censor his column. Actually, Bye's column was completely correct about the radicalized NRA having an "all or nothing" mentality. There were simply no lies in Bye's column, but that doesn't stop Lund, and you Echo Whackos, from irresponsibly calling him a liar because they didn't like what Bye said.

Wrong again Nutz

first of all BYE was wrong with his blather about the NRAL and you and your Moron pal attacked Mr Lund with your attempt to damage his business with your childlike threats.

And now you are a coward just like your pal since you won't practice what you preah and post your employers names
