lol... Now you did it I'm going to preach.

We need to get our elected representatives to be beholding to the voters rather than special interests through lobbying and corporate donations.

There is only one way... make lobbying illegal with a strong penalty and limit political donations to individuals with a small limit. I know people are tired of hearing me say this but it is the ONLY thing that will work.

We are third now...behind special interests and then party donations and affiliations... then if nothing interferers with the first two or it is election time they may pay us lip service.

By the end of this one, Mari, probably as low as anything we've ever seen.

It makes me sad. However, I'm not going to stop pointing out the President's regular need of a "do-over" as he goes about the job he was elected to do.

There is plenty of nasty on the right, I know, but there are legitimate concerns and questions to be raised as well. Those can't be answered with distractionary rhetorical slurs forever. Are you sure it's best to be shooting them off now?

Rich, I am beyond just typing on this keyboard.
I live outside of D.C. and I have been in marches and protests before.
I am prepared to start getting involved in protesting in the near future, and I suspect that many protests will be on-going.

I am not a spring chicken, and cutting medicare and social security will directly affect ME, if I live long enough to collect, and you can bet your last money, many people are not going to accept cuts to medicare and social security without a fight.

This is the last straw, the United States spends zillions all over this world, and we can't even control our own damn borders, and now they want to cut/make drastic negative changes to Medicare and Social Security.

Rich, you ain't even seen ugly yet.
lol
this is just a warm-up

Simple solution: Since everyone has to 'take a haircut' to fix the budget, ditch the 'golden parachute' retirement and healthcare bennies for members of Congress, and enroll them in Social Security and Medicare. They really aren't all that special or deserving, after all.

Just watch how fast this shit would get fixed if that ever happened!

Medicare is pretty fucking awesome! It lacks dental and a well defined drug plan. They are working on improving the drug plan.

I would gladly take Medicare part A & B today, drop my health insurance and have no Medicare Supplement. I would be more than willing to pay all of my deductibles and co-pays straight out of pocket.

Medicare pays for the majority of all big ticket items.

and you know that, but still lie,
I amended my comment about two days after that was posted, it went on for some time, but you know that, nice try but only a whoopee cushion
of course such fine points just fly over your head

That means you are not allowing ABC, CBS, NBC or MSNBC programs either? Especially Bill Maher and Rachel Maddow?

The drug plan is a joke.    And so are rx prices.   $12 rx in the 80s now over $300.

The state insurance commission ought to de-license them!

Sweet jesus do you always have this much trouble comprehending my posts???
They (ABC,CBS,NBC,orMSNBC) are not broadcast from canada, and yes we get them on our tv the same we do with fox.
Maher is a comedian, Ive never watched him on the local tv, , and I have never seen Maddows show , Ive never looked for it, so I dont have a clue
The law is against broadcasters in canada knowingly telling lies.
got it?

Whats really scary, and its nothing anyone is making up is what happens to granny after we crash the economy with the unthinkable debt we are amassing. No one is being kind to granny in any way through this irresponsible spending, and I am not pointing to anyone in particular. The debt is seriously killing this country and if it keeps growing as projected a lot of people of all ages are going to suffer in a very big way

quote:



I can't believe I agree with you!!

We have to fix the debt created by the great minds that created /profitted from the financial debacle without starving granny. Clawback, anyone??

There is a huge difference in wording there. Certainly seems like, for federal funding, the definition of rape was being redefined. It also seems that a child who was not a victim of incest, or forcibly raped, would have no recourse if her parents didnt have enough money to pay for the abortion. The text of the bill did not take into consideration drugs.


Tazzy,

Isn't it ALWAYS rape to have intercourse with someone under the age of consent? I think that there is even a special term for it. "Statutory rape."

Aylee, yes, but the way the original bill was written, that would not have been considered rape.
