“Well dear, the Stupek bill is trying to fix it so that you could not do in with your own money even if you could/would. So don't get too high and mighty. I remember very well the 'clotheshanger' days and hearing or reading about the results of that. I think young women had to go to Sweden to have a legal abortion. Now could you do that.”

“Abortion is often a medical procedure in a life-threatening situation. And the fact that you cannot pay for an extended hospital stay, or for a catastrophic illness, kinda says something about your own life. It says, you'll be living off us one of these days. So... no pain meds for you... they're really just optional, after all. Scream quietly now.”

“Even without Stupak Pitts, taxpayers would not be paying for abortion. The point of Stupak Pitts is to keep women from getting insurance that covers abortion even when they are paying with their own money. As it is right now, and as it was in the Capps amendment, no federal taxpayer money was to go to abortions. Stupak Pitts is a blatant attempt to keep women from getting abortions they have paid for with their own money.”

“Refreshingly realistic and responsible! What's happening to our country?”

“This is America? These fools on Capital Hill are making laws that go hand in hand with drug companies and healthcare insurance companies. This is America? Go to Canada! When you need that Bilateral Modified Radical Mastectomy, you'll be back. If you don't have breast cancer, you won't get it because it is considered an elective procedure there and if you do have breast cancer, by the time you get the surgery, it will metastasize to your lungs by the time you get it. This is the problem, people like you rattle off at the fingertips without knowing what the hell you are talking about.

Do your research before you post.

Do you really think that this bill is going to help you? This bill is going to handcuff all of the working folk financially.

Since we are talking about these countries that provide free healthcare, let's talk about Britain.

Guess who doesn't do surgery after 4 p.m GMT? The Brits. You people kill me with your rhetoric. Do you really believe that John "Check My Pulse" Dingell really has an answer for this? Absolutely not! "I've been trying to get healthcare reform passed since 1955", says Dingell. Why don't you look at this fool's voting record and legislation introduced over the past 54 years. One good question is this...Why the hell has this guy been in government for 54 years?”

“It seems to me the choice is clear, do we bring them home now or after they are further wounded, maimed and killed?”

“No, they've already moved on to the next thing.”

“No, Obama has been reduced to a caricature in the mind of most conservatives. It does not matter if he is right or wrong , the right will attempt to sabotage anything he attempts to do no matter how noble it may seem. It's sad, it really is…”

“They will NEVER be embarrassed. Their only aim is to throw as much dung as possible. Truth, reality and logic have zero connection to this and are of no interest whatsoever to them. Don't you remember the last eight years?”

“No. What actually happens never embarrasses the Reality Deficit Disorder crew.”

“He could get a lot done if the democratic party didn't also include racists and bigots like the blue dogs and others. With majorities in both houses and in the white house, he shouldn't have any difficulties putting America back on solid ground. The disease of racism is going to overwhelm this country to the point of no return! The sickness of Fox News and people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck k k have no foreseeable antidote, leaving the country susceptible to the spread of their infection. If you want to get an historical view of what their pseudo religion offers, Google September Dawn. This gives an accounting of what took place on 9/11/1857. That's right! Another 9/11 date to remember!”

“You forgot to put "Christian" in quotes.”

“Amen brother!”

“Southern Iconoclast, Atlanta Native:
I'm amazed that you could find so many mindless Amerikans to follow your name-calling rhetoric.
But, we should never underestimate the level to which Amerikans will stoop to prove themselves fools. "Enough1" - And about the oath? Your buddy, Obama. His oath? Meaninless. Most Senators and Congressmen? Oath? What a joke. God Bless the Founding Fathers - seeing the Republic destroyed by idiots placed in office by other idiots who vote them in - must be spinning in their graves. Forget Democracy, screw Socialism, go to Fascism!”

“Probably.”

“the dude is probably a sex addict. Those addicted to power frequently are addicted to sex.”

“"they do pay high taxes". You hit the nail on the head. How else do you think the US will pay for this health care reform? You better believe your take home pay is going to be cut in half to begin with and eventually (if you live long enough under rationed healthcare) be eventually cut to a 40% take home pay. Can you pay your living expenses on that? Course, you will be able to take public transportation all over for free (since you won't be able to afford a car) and when you are a senior citizen there are all kinds of senior centers offering things that might appeal to you. (England tax rate = 65%, Sweden (cradle to the grave) 75% tax rate (and some even pay 105% unbelievable!) but cradle to the grave take care of you but no money in your pocket to invest. Total socialism to the max!! That isn't my style of life. Maybe you might like it.”

“OH that's it, "I'm a greenie" but only when it suits my purpose. I bet you still drive, cook with gas, use other petroleum products, use electricity, use make-up, use a cell phone, etc. etc..

The sky is falling, the sky is falling. I bet that compost bucket really smells good after a few days. Just like you when your saving water and gas from not bathing everyday, RIGHT??? Just like a good lib. spout the group mantra but don't follow your own parties words. Why?? Nobody is watching what your doing in the privacy of your own home. OH WAIT, Obama is here to the rescue government is in my life!!!!!!”

“Why don't you look up each of these "earmarks"

you would learn something.

Mormon crickets are a serious crop threat, like the biblical plague of locusts.

Look up the rest.

Remember the conservatives Lie. They make stuff up.

No doubt they either made up the numbers and items, or misrepresented what it's actually about.”

“What is it with the religious craziness from that region? Judaism, Islamism and Christianism, the scourge of our lives. All human beings originated from Africa, so lets all go to Africa and claim our inheritance.”

“EXCUSE ME! I'm writing a "book" that will prove God gave all the land and water between the Jordan and Mississippi to me.”

“But did they get Title Insurance?”

“That attitude isn't religious extremism? Oh yeah, I forgot - only Muslims can be accused of religious extremism. It's perfectly fine for Jews to believe that they are God's chosen people and that God promised them the entire land of Palestine (of course Hamas are extremists and terrorists for believing that the entire land of Palestine should belong to Palestinians - what an extreme and fanatical belief they have that European Zionists should not have come and kicked their grandparents out of their homes in 1948).

So tell me how about if I claim that my God promised me the land? And then a bunch of other people of different religions come and claim that their Gods promised the land to them also? Whose God should we listen to?”

“Policy should not be dictated by religion- If it was God would be here telling us now!
The dogma of Native Americans says this is their land-so do we leave? no
Many different religions state different beliefs. This idea that an old book that was written by men and revised by men hundreds of times should dictate policy is a joke!!
So what next do we not drill holes into the ground because we might disturb Middle Earth?
If you want to have discussions about policy than dont quote fiction! Is evolution a lie?while God said he created humans and all of Earth so....
My point is you are an idiot!”

“Ever read the book of Micah? The prophet Micah fortold the invasion of Israel by foreign armies as Yahweh's judgement on the decadence, greed, and land grabbing of his contemporary Israelites in 700BC.

So, the bible says that too. But you never really read the Bible for yourself, now, did you? You let somebody else read the parts that supported their agenda, and, since their agenda blended consistently with your own, decided it was God's whole truth.

What a joke.”

So tell me how about if I claim that my God promised me the land? And then Tom Cruise comes along and says the God of Scientology promised it to him? And so on and so forth. Whose God should we listen to? Should they all battle it out and the winner's people get to keep the land?”

“GOD .....GAVE.­.....!!!!.­.give me a break man..”

“Who are you kidding? There is no God. When your brain is dead, you are dead. Nobody is favored by fate to a better existence then others because of a book that has been rewritten several times for political reasons. Isrealis and Palestineans desearve better then what their getting as of late. What are you going to pull next, telling me the easter bunny is real. Get over your ridiculous delusions, or at least don't embarass yourself further on this lefty blog.”

“And what if you do not believe in God.. is that right still a valid arguement?”

“If you read your Bible you would see that since the time God gave Israel the land there have been very few years that they actually ruled it. It has been under many many rulers. Some were benign some were oppressive. Nowhere in the old testament and certainly not in the new testament does God ever say "why are these Romans hanging around here?". He was more concerned about them keeping the Israeli nation/Identity intact. That means abiding by the laws and edicts that have been passed down.”

“I did read the bible and realized that it was not ordained by God. Had it been, God would have told those ancients that the world was not flat but spherical. What is obvious is that so called guys that designated themselves as being divine were, psychologically, fooling themselves. We humans made God in or own image, then Jews ,conveniently, suggested that this, so called God, designated Jews are God's chosen people and that their land was Israel. How ****** convenient.”

“And he also said: Thou shalt not covet your neighbor's property, Thou shalt not Steal and Thou shalt not k i l l.”

“This post instantly disqualifies you from calling out the other side for religious extremism.”

“Enough1, if your daughter had been living in Gaza or the West Bank, I think you would be telling the exact opposite story and choosing the exact opposite side.”

“So just how many people have to suffer and die so you and your family can feel safe? How many Palestinian lives does it take to equal the worth of your own life, in your eyes?”

“Open up your mind and educate yourself with the facts. There are reasons why the Palestinians are fighting back, they are retaliating against their oppressors. The Israeli's are the occupiers, saying they are retaliating is the western propaganda that we have been fed. Israel has US billions and a full complement of military weapons, including WMD's. They are the attackers. People who retaliate are typically NOT the same people who are the occupiers, think about it. They don't call it the Occupation for nothing!!!

Look at the statistics, many many more Palestinians are routinely killed compared to the numbers of dead Israeli's. Human Rights violations are a way of life for the IDF. Why do you think they are fighting back?? Israel collectively punishes people by withholding medical care, electricity, food and water. Look up water rights in Gaza, it's all very eye opening and sad.”

“I'm glad that your daughter is safe, but did she understand that while she was living in Israel persumably because she's Jewish and can immigrate there, Palestinians are regularly kicked off their ancestral land to make room for new Jewish immigrants? Is this fair?”

“"...picks and chooses...­" ???

I see no evidence that she obeys any of them.”

“enough1 - Wonderful term - cafeteria christian.
They are only there for the wine, loaves and fishes but leave before the collection plate is passed.”

“I, too, think that Obama would be more receptive to passing medicare for all. He talked about what his mother went through with her insurance company not wanting to pay in her time of need. When you need these insurance companies the most, they don't want to know you. They only want to know you, for the most part, when you are young and healthy. If you have a pre-existing condition, they will not cover you. The only way insurance companies make money is to deny care. The term "insurance" shouldn't even be used because when you need them the most, they're not there. Passing HR 676 is the only way to go.”

“Did your husband experience some kind of brain trauma during his injury? Why in the hell did he vote for McCain? Another case of someone voting against their own best interest.”

“I would love to understand the reasoning behind your votes or more precisely your husbands vote.You did seem to explain your position.”
