If he had as much money as Romney as many world series rings as Guiliani and George Bush's old email lists like McCane - would he get the equal time? And while we are on it - where is the balance on immigration to Loud Dobbs. Be real newspeople please.

In actuality they are being more prejudice because they are separating people into categories. This shows that they have a mindset of segregation-isn't that considered racism or bigotry? Ron Paul is right. Each person gets his rights individually by God. Each person has rights not because they are women, men, straight or gay, but because they are a human being. Martin Luther King wanted ALL PEOPLE TO BE EQUAL. He spoke the same vibe! Some liberals think that they are fighting prejudice by talking about rights of groups.

The issue was floating around the state house long before Willard arrived and without the leadership of House Speaker Sal Di Masi and former Senate President Robert Travaglini (and countless aides and knowledgeable staff people, consultants and healthcare workers) the bill that finally passed would never have happened. My fondest wish is that all news outlets use a little pressure test when it comes to sweeping comments like "he got all Massachusetts citizens insured through private health insurance." Dear CNN:
