“CHRIS MATTHEWS IS SO OUT OF TOUCH. OBAM,A CARES ENOUGH TO MAKE SURE THAT HIS DECISION ON AFGHANISTAN DOES NOT WASTE ANY MORE AMERICAN LIVES IN VAIN. SO FAR THE LIVES LOST WERE AS A RESU;T OF A FALSE AGENDA AND BAD PLANNING. WE STILL DO NOT HAVE THE ARMS OR ARMAMENTS REQUIRED. AND THE GOVERNMENT IN CHARGE IS SUSPECT. I THINK ,MATTHEWS IS TOO LOUD AND TOO LOOSE WITH HIS THOUGHTS. HE APPARENTLY DID NOT LEARN FROM HIS PAST POLITICAL ASSOCIATIONS. I THINK ONEIL, IF HE WAS HERE, WOULD TAKE HIM TO THE SHED.”

Some Dems Vow To Block Final Health Bill If Anti-Abortion Amendment Stays
Commented Nov 09, 2009 at 17:02:02 in Politics
“Nobody wants to be sick or hurt. But being pregnant is a choice. Having an abortion is a choice. And thats where medical insurance stops. If a female wants the abortion rider she should pay a premium for it.
Why should others be asked to pay for something that can be avoided. Where extenuating circumstances arise then the medical coverage is there to cover it. I believe that the abortion problem does not belong in our laws. Pro choice should be the unwritten law of the land. Pro life is both political and religious or just plain " I want it my way " thinking.”

“So you must be in favor of some sort of government panel to sit down and evaluate ALL medical procedures, both on morality and necessity, and decide which we will have access to and which we won't. Does that sound about right? I hate to say it but that sounds kind of like the infamous death panel.”

Pelosi Joins Attack On Insurance Industry's Anti-Trust Exemption

“The State lines have always been open. All they need is permission of each state and that requires licensing in each state. No cross over without qualifying. As for the anti-trust provision they should never have had that protection. Big business does not like two words. " Oversight and transparency ".
We are in a mess because for the past eight Republican years we did not have the benefit of those two words. And thats the way it is. ( thanks W.C.)”

cholden replied on Oct 16, 2009 at 01:51:53
“You are correct. Insurance is regulated at the state level so we have 50 different sets of regulation. I worked for a life insurer for 20+ years. Getting approval to sell a new life insurance product was very, very, expensive. It takes, on average, 3 years to get approval in all states, NY having the most rigorous regulations.
I have to laugh when people think selling insurance across state lines is just a matter of saying it's so. In practice, it will be very difficult to do (not saying that it's not a good idea) but it is no quick fix by any stretch of the imagination. Here's an article that explains the challenges of selling HC insurance across state lines.

Israel did not exist until it was "created" in 1948. Palestine on the other hand has been in existence for centuries. If Jews had wanted to live in what they now refer to as Israel why did they leave?”
