Pharma Deal Shuts Down Senate Health Care Debate
Commented Dec 11, 2009 at 14:06:03 in Politics
“I say GO DORGAN. If the White House has made agreements that are not in the best interest of the American People than I hope this works. Since the Public Option died without Obama uttering a word? I could now care less if he winds up with egg on his face.
I still support my President and think he has done a great job in many areas but he let us down on Insurance Reform.”

“and credit card reform
and wall street reform
and banking reform
and government reform
what exactly has he done that's been so great.
All i can see is he abandoned us in our hour of need the minute he took office.
this bill has no teeth and the insurance industry will just use it as an excuse to raise the premiums even more just like the Credit card industry did with that supposed reform bill.
How much is the interst on your credit cards now vs. before that bill.
It will be exactly the same with insurance.”

“IT'S THE DRUGS PEOPLE. NOT THE LIFESTYLE, NOT THE NEW HUSBAND AND NOT PAST MISTAKES THAT PUT HER IN PRISON. THE DRUGS THE DRUGS THE DRUGS.
I hope Sandra and Jesse win because for this little girl to be subjected to a drug filled life? No way. Yes they can test her all day long but that would not remove the enviroment she would have to live in with regard to the people around her.”

“No, it was not drugs that put her in prison. She went to prison for "willful failure to pay taxes". She didn't go away on a drug charge. Drugs may be a problem, but you don't know that. You don't know what drugs she may or may not be doing, or how often she may or may not be doing them.”

“Prisoners or "trustees" work in the govenors mansions in most states. Most consider it a privilege. The slavery remarks are extremely silly. Most prisoners would love the chance to get out during the day, of course, there are some people who would rather lay on their buttts all day.”

“Actually, those women were probably prison trustees that were clearly taken advantage of. That's still no excuse for rape. But they were probably afraid that their sentences would be lengthened if the rapes were reported. In essence, they were slaves of the state.”

“you are not sentenced to labor anymore for crimes dude. work done in correctional facilities is usually for the management of the prison, cooking laundry license plates whatever and allows the prisoners a very small amount of money to buy equally small items.
One could argue that this is just a way for the state to avoid it being called slavery. It could also be learning a trade. I think it is a lot closer to indenture servitude than teaching them a trade.”

“Wrong, completely wrong. It is considered punishment if you can't perform labor. Think about it. You are right about the kind of labor that once had to be performed (chains and whips), but almost all inmates badly want to work.”

“Indeed, CA would not have a prison overflow problem if they put these people to honest work for most the time they serve. There is much to be done, and learning to work means learning to live in this society. Work realigns priorities, so you can release folks sooner.

“My best friend was a gay man but I would tell him the same thing. Sorry but there are more important issues on the Presidents plate at the moment that must be attended to and sooner or later he will take care of some of the other issues that dont involve banks failing, schools closing, people losing their jobs, 2 wars ect. If you want to be mad at someone? Be mad at the Republicans and George Bush who created this mess that Obama is now having to clean up.
IF he had walked into a trillion dollar surplus, no wars and a fantastic economy, such as Bush did, then he would be able to just go right to work on his campaign promises. Sadly he cannot and now he has to put up with the verbal abuse from people wanting him to help them. Grow up gay people and get in line.”

The idea that we should be grateful for someone who has already broken his promise to end DADT is ludicrous. He could end it immediately, and I wonder if President Truman gave a flip about bringing the Generals on board when he integrated the armed services!

ALL Americans should be immensely proud that their Prez won such a prestigious award. The fact that some are blubbering away about whether he deserves it or not is based on race. Some of these lunatics will never accept a black man in the WH. To go from the good old corrupt Bush/Cheney days to a democratic majority with Obama as leader is just too much for these racist SOBs. They pose a grave threat to US security and should be charged with treason.”

Ummm, no, not yet, not by a long shot. Talk is cheap. We have to actually DO something first.
For starters, let's see Guantanamo closed -- and let's see whether America complies with the International Conventions Against Torture, to which America is a signatory. The ICAT requires signatory nations to investigate allegations of torture which may have taken place in their country or at the hands of their country's people. Failing that, we have to let international inspectors in to do the job. Other signatory nations have been holding their fire for now, but how long can we expect them to wait?”
