Why Health Insurance Reform Will Pass This Fall -- It's the High Political Ground

“excuse me sir, but you are one of those pundits and when did "high political ground' accomplish anything as the concept doesn't even exist: most of it is merely rhetoric.
remember hearing about the crusades which were about freeing the spice routes but labeled as save the holy land from the infidels because free our cardamom and cinnamon would not have worked. Of course, we need health care reform but why not do it in increments. immediately provide preventative care for the uninsured making complete physicals and other testing and treatments available. Catastrophic care is available and monies like the Hill Burton funds pay for hospitals and surgery but we need more of these funds. then when we get the hell out of the middle east where we initially went in to save quait not the oil fields, hopefully we will have the money to revise more of the system.”

“we should have journalists as bright as the deadly duo: stewart and colbert.”

“We do have journalists just as bright -- and brighter. Much as we admire them, Stewart and Colbert aren't doing the legwork and the reporting. They are simply editing it. Brilliantly yes, but still an edit.”

Health Care Reform Needs an Action Hero

“no, use jack to end the wars. until that happens, figure out a way to get access into the health system for physicals and testing for the millions who do not have health care. after that when we have the money to do so fix what is broken in our health care. I lived in Canada and the healthcare system sucks. when we wintered in Italy one year we we told that people die in ambulances as there are no hospital beds for them. Our landlord said, very wisely, I thought, when it is free* you need more facilities not less.
*of course it is never really free”
*of course it is never really free”

“Living my entire life in Canada and I can say that my health care has been very efficient, timely and effective. I have used emergency services, walk in clinics and my regular family doctor. Yes, it's not really free in the sense that it is publicly supported. But then, all you do is present your health card, not your credit card.”

“'Every sadistic p s y c h o has justified his or her actions in the manner you just described.'
Be aware of absolutes and accusing people of performing acts when all they did was comment on them. And do you know EVERY sadistic psycho?
'no degree or measure that compares torture' I disagree for of course there is a spectrum of torture and it can be purely subjective. If I am going to be tortured, I would pick reading the writings of fools rather than being drawn and quartered. Or is no one but you entitled to an opinion?”

“You don't quit just because you want to pursue a new ambition. The job is bigger and more important than your own personal agenda.
I couldn't disagree more. when people, especially those senators running for the presidency (their own personal agenda), have little time to give to the office to which they were elected they should be forced to resign. when people campaign for two years they are in essense turning their senatorial jobs into no shows, perhaps we don't need two senators for each state.”

150 Years for Madoff?

“and killing the dreams and hopes of people who trusted this disgusting pig to look out for their savings and retirements is not a consideration? and how about the folks who committed suicide, not having the energy or longevity to try again? And the hospitals and other treatment centers that were funded in part by people who had investments with this charlatan. yes, 150 years is ridiculous it should have been more. and Alex stick to scripts written by other people and stop believing you too, can write a column; you may, obviously but you cannot. and what does serving the greater good mean?”

“We don't know if it started in Mexico after all the Spanish Influenza did not originate in Spain, yet most folks call it that. At least no one is calling it the Mexican Flu but our concern should be with treating the illness and worry about it's origin after this passes. What nation took the heat when the Swine flu was prevalent in the 1970s?”

“How about ANYONE crossing the border MAY have contributed to the transfer of the disease. the only death we have had in this country, so far was a Mexican boy visiting Texas (according to the press, I was not there). Is that passive enough for you?”
