“SNL is comedy but some people are not that bright and take what SNL states to heart. They can fact check all they want because behind every joke is some truth. What I find funny is all the complaints that President Obama has not done anything especially since its obvious that he is working on a daily basis. How many vacations has he had? 1, maybe?”

“I know I shouldn't be but I'm always amazed at the callousness of people regarding such pain. I wonder how many of these people have experienced extreme abuse whether a child or adult. No, she should not have kept it secret, thats how abuse continues because of silence. Many who are abused are always silenced and her speaking out publicly may help someone who is being abused currently or has been abused. Hopefully, this country will start making harsher penalties for these abusers.”

“An abusive parent has a captive prisoner and they bully or manipulate the kid into not speaking out about the abuse.
If the kid does speak out the abusive parent invariably throws a major tantrum and tries to make the kid out to be the bad guy.
Its a shame she didn't write her book when her John was alive, he should have been outed for all his wickedness and irresponsiblility as a parent.
The sad thing is that one of the music greats of our lives was such a bad man.”

“And you don't consider possible emotional abuse, mental illness, and neglect occuring in the home they are already in? There are 14 children all very young with only two people raising them. Very little finances, mentally unstable (by appearances) mother, three children with disabilities already, and you think this is great? I have sit and read all of your comments and you quote wikipedia as a source to back of your statements and any time someone mentions that you send checks you respond with "false dilemma".
I wonder if you have children at all.”

“The "system" has a terrible track record with children. No matter how poor and cramped their situation is, it's better to be with family and a mother who loves you than to have bureaucrats run your life.
A false dilemma is when someone insists that there are only two alternatives when in fact there are infinite alternatives. It is a logical fallacy used by propagandists as a rhetorical device to sway an audience fraudulently with specious reasoning. Its a common device used on fox news.

I use wikipedia as a source for two reasons:
1) We are online and it's easy for everyone to access
2) It has been found to be as accurate as the Encyclopedia Brittanica.
A fact is a fact no matter the source.”

“I don't think true Americans have problems helping our fellow Americans. However, this woman was irresponsible and it should not be the burden of other Americans, her idiocy. To truly help the children, it would be best to take them out of that home and put them in a more stable environment with parents who are mentally stable. But sending her money, feeding her babies, essentially taking care of her may lead her to continue this behavior.”

“According to the 14th amendment (due process, equal protection under the law), as an American she has the right to the same services as any other American and the right to to bear children and raise them unimpeded.
Do you have every right to disagree with her decisions and criticize her harshly? ABSOLUTELY.
Does anyone have the right to single her out and deny her her rights as an American? ABSOLUTELY NOT.”

If the banks were allowed to fail.. the depositors would lose everything .. the FDIC would end up becoming insolvent. . the stockholders would see MAYBE a few cents on the dollar of their investments (if anything at all) & the ripple-effect on the general economy would be devastating.
Even the immediate loss of employment .. the tellers, the low-level bankers.. the guards, the janitors.
The luncheonette across the street... the waitresses, short-order cooks, cashiers.. . the laundry services & the drivers.. the other vendors.. food suppliers, etc... the tax revenue would dry up, etc, etc, etc.
It's unfortunate that their malfeasance should be ignored (for the time being)... but the alternativeis unspeakable.”

“Think under the radar, it has more to do with pressure from international sources than anything else. Too many wealthy non-Americans have a lot of money ties up in these banks.
As for the reason of trying to get the banks to lend more money to consumers to presumably generate economic activity, you hear a lot of voices coming out of the woodwork now saying that was never the intention of the bailout. However it certainly was sold to the public that way.”
