“Jasper, thank you so much for being in the right place at the right time. You are a true HERO and should be honored as such officially.

It just goes to show that when we allow our human instincts to take over, we can all be heros when it comes to survival. And when we allow that to happen, it doesn't really matter who we are, what we look like, what language we speak, what color our skin, or whatever, we react to save each other as best we can. And what a great story this is of SURVIVAL!”

“It just goes to show just how "dumbed down" this country has become. People used to be so much smarter than this and they don't even know when they became so uneducated because they don't realize their own stupidity.”

“GOOD! It's about time MSNBC removed this corporate "talking head" doctor. I couldn't wait to change the channel every time she came on. Thank you MSNBC and anybody would be better than she was, especially anybody who can "tell the truth" that is! The truth didn't know her!”

“And I bet any amount of money that he NEVER ONCE brought a gun to his job or to a bush event. Now tell me his doing this at an Obama event was not staged to cause fear!”

JBS replied on Dec 23, 2009 at 22:09:18

“He wasn't going to the Obama speech. He was meeting a friend at a bar so they could sit there and snark at Obama's speech in comfort.

Put it in perspective. He used to work for the "White House", specifically the Executive Office of the President - which is equivalent to an IBM employee being at corporate headquarters in Armonk (is IBM headquarters still in Armonk? anyway ...)

He's basically computer help desk tech support staff level guy.

What he gets from the White House is a PARKING PASS good for anywhere in DC that the government has parking lots. Especially SECURE parking lots - Capitol Police to keep someone from breaking into his car. It's a handicap placard on steroids.

So he's on the way to meet his friends at the bar and he uses one of the SECURE parking lots, just like he always does - only he's forgot two things:

1. He turned in the White House pass when he quit working for the White House.

2. He forgot to take the d*&n guns into the house when he got home from his hunting trip the week before.

One indication of innocent intent is he doesn't hesitate to allow his car to be searched. He drank the National Security Cool-Ade. He's dumb enough to let them search his car without probable cause because "he's got nothing to hide".

Idiot.”

“Since you have a one frame of mind thought process, that mandates are unconstitutional or wrong, I don't believe we have any more to discuss because I don't believe as you do and have spoken my beliefs quite thoroughly enough. I believe in this bill and it's mandate and that's all there is to it as far as I'm concerned. When the Supreme Court rules it illegal in some form or fashion, I will adjust accordingly. Until that time, I believe the bill is the right thing for us at this time in history. So why don't we just leave it at that!”

“I don't believe in Baal for one thing. And I have an honest belief in the people of this country to do the right things no matter what obstacles are thrown in their way. Single payer is not feasible at this time because it CANNOT go through unabated. So we must do whatever we can to get the ball rolling by allowing this bill to come to fuition first. With a good foundation, a great house can be built in the future.”

“Well, you have to admit there's a certain elegance to the Republican view. The corporations are going to find loopholes and screw us no matter what legislation we pass. So why not simply fail to pass legislation? In fact, why not pass legislation making it legal for them to screw us? It's going to happen anyway, so we might as well get rich taking bribe money from them!”

“Seems to me that some of you people have gotten jacked up with some erroneous history facts and believe stuff that is just not there. You might need to reacquaint yourself with the Constitution, your Bill of Rights, and the Amendments attached thereto to know more about what you're talking about in today's society. Knowledge is the only answer to ignorance.”

“You have a problem reading even what you have written yourself it seems. You didn't mention a "kid's" rights in your comment. This is what you said:

"you don't have to have insurance to operate your car on your property...you don't have to have insurance to ride your bicycle across town..let alone register your bicycle"

And in quite a few states, you have rules and regulations you must abide by when riding a bicycle. This is only one state's link:

Have yourself a field day by checking out all the other states and see that what you originally said was incorrect!”

“My license starts with 123, that should tell you how old I am so I know about driving rules and regulations from all over the country darn near because I travelled a lot in my business. The state laws vary basically according to speed limits, tickets, insurance and property damages. And if you work for the federal government, the same rules and regulations would apply based on the same differences accorded to that specific state. Basically, the rules don't differ that much.”

“Your |icense number doesn't te|| me squat without the state and know|edge of your state's assignment procedure.

For instance, did you know that car insurance is not mandatory in NH and very |imited in Wisconsin? There are no he|met |aws for motorcyc|ists in PA. Seat be|t |aws are primary in some states and not in others. Radar detectors are i||ega| in some states, but not in others. Car inspection ru|es vary from state to state. Speed |imits vary from state to state. |icensing requirements vary from state to state.

What are you even arguing anymore? There is no nationa| set of |aws for driving, and to pretend there is, is just weird.”
