Grant Funding Supercedes Truth Flush with success in creating an atom bomb, the U.S. federal government decided it should start funding nonmilitary scientific research.

I guess Howard Dean forgot what 1850's Republican platforms were all about.

Or what party they were opposing that wanted to support slavery.

Re: Marine and and Code Pink

Oh cry me a bucket of tears. If I was that marine, I would have told her "tough titty sister". She stepped in it and now she will have to just live with it. As the old saying goes "What goes around comes around" and she has spit on the people that she did not agree with many times with impunity. Now that shoe is on the other foot, she cries foul. Now she wants the help and protection from the very outfit she despises and wants to throw out. Typical left wing moonbat.
