“Considering all anti-cancer drugs and herbs(redundant, as the herbs talked about are drugs) are poisons, I would much rather take the mixture approved by the FDA, which would allow me to sue in certain cases, than self-medicate myself and hope that I don't die.”

“Then WE can collect our money back from the crooked banks and insurance companies like AIG or whatever the he// they are calling themselves this week, that WON'T LEND TO THOSE BUSINESSES DOING GREEN TECH.

It's an UBER MEGA RICH ELITE STANDOFF. They want American Families and businesses to "BOW DOWN TO THEM."
Yet they have the nerve to talk, about the "symbol of respect" in Asia.

Uber Mega Rich Overseers can ki$$ my poor @&&!
I say Buck them all, for grinding their heels in the middle class, poor and sick's faces!”

“Replace the Greedy's corporations, that left. They used to have a name WE respected and they shafted US without lubricant. Still want to take it up the gazoo?
C'mon people, Keith Olbermann and others had to "open free clinics to the poor" in the states of those who said they will vote against it.

We can't go without jobs, so let's replace the missing pieces of our economy.
Buck those greedy slave wage payers!
American workers quality and longevity of products is what made us great.
Not temporary parts or products that have to be bought again and again like toilet paper.
In fact most of the cheap junk is like toilet paper as you can ONLY USE IT One time.
Case in point, the antique tags on cars from the seventies and sixties and thirties that are still running as long as the parts are still made.
C'mon people, America has a reputation to uphold, lift your end and invest in the smaller unknown named companies doing the green technology. The more that get started, the more the unemployment #'s drop and people get back to normal.”

“Like your title but shouldn't it include some acknowledgement of the Insurance and PHRMA windfalls? Maybe the "Health Care Police State and Medical Corporate Giveaway Act"?”

“Not so sure about that. Especially if you subscribe to the notion that there are cascading qualities of energy. Nuclear energy is at the top of that spectrum, and depending on which form of solar energy is being discussed, it would be much lower down the spectrum. Don't get me wrong, solar is great, and should continue to be developed, improved and expanded, but the high quality sources of energy that come from natural gas, and nuclear need to be included in our national energy portfolio, as well. This either/or scenario is what is screwing up the debate.”

“Totally agree.”

“Just go somewhere and blame ACORN for all of this.”

“Where is your proof?

Also I would like you to read Robert Kennedy Jr's excellent Rolling Stone article about the 2004 election, and then report back.

Also, for the 100th time Dittohead, voter registration fraud is not the same as voter fraud. And ACORN is not the same as the Democratic party.”

“That's how I felt during the Bush administrations. The only thing his team was good for was ste@ling elections and getting the country into war.”

“Look into your little republican mirror and then go away.”

“Wow, look who is talking!!!”

“and the repugs didnt steal the election in 2 k ha .lol”

“Obama's DREAMS OF BIPARTISANSHIP ARE BRINGING DOWN our country...­..........­..... ....... Certanly is an anchor for progress..­.”

“Are we really surprised that Huffington Post allow this comment to get through but not others?”

“What? That's crazy talk. Reagan told us we didn't have to actually make anything in America. We just need to say "Do you want fries with that?"”

“Even if/since the mercury in the vaccinations is toxic, shouldn't older people still get their annual seasonal flu vaccinations? The mercury isn't going to have the chance to build up in older people, like it does in younger ones.

For younger people, you have to weigh the small risk of mercury toxicity with the possible benefits of vaccinations. If you have severe underlying health conditions, getting a flu shot (seasonal, or for H1N1 or both) may still make sense even if the they are slightly toxic due to the mercury...­.. Perhaps those who are younger and still choose to get the flu shots need to be more vigilant about avoiding all the other potential sources of mercury in our environment (fish, tooth fillings, broken light bulbs, HFCS, etc.).”

“Agreed. There may be random bright spots in the recovery, but the unemployment rate is still dreadful. Worse still are the income levels. I took a 20% cut in my salary, which was then reduced further when 401k matches were dropped and health insurance rates went up nearly 60% (bastards.­..in a freaking recession no less!). The best my employer MAY do is restore my salary to its 2008 levels, but that has been stagnant since 2006, the last time I saw a raise. Economic recovery is directly tied to income. If only rich people can spend, it's not going to do that much for the rest of us.”

“Our best hope is a major swine flu outbreak in Washington DeeCee.”

“The best hope is to vote for somebody that has not been bought and paid for the insurance industry lobbyists.”

“The best hope in 2010 is to vote for people who have not sold their patriotism and their belief in true to democracy to the lobbyists of Corp orate Amer ica.”

“It is not fraud. It guarantees every American access to affordable health care no matter what the status of their health is. That is a godsend to millions of Americans. All of us, actually, if we consider that we are always at risk for losing our health care if we lose our jobs, or, irony of ironies, our state of health goes south. That is a huge societal accomplishment.

Just because single-payer, which is not a panacea - look at Medicare - is off the table doesn't mean progressives should pick up their marbles and go home in a snit.”

“It is a fraud intended to accomplish only one thing: re-elect Obama in 2012 and keep a Democrat Congress in 2010. Keep you hand on your wallet!”

“So you are saying that, unless we get a perfect solution we should get nothing?

Is that how you live your own life? Everything perfect?”

“While there is a real need for a voice in opposition, I'd just as soon see The Republican Party disintegrate.

Another (or more) will spring up in their place, but I want the history textbooks to make note of how extremism lead to their demise along with long discourses regarding their many transgressions.”

“You need a sensible opposition.”

“Indeed.

And, as an extention to Sun Tzu's quotation: "When employing an army in battle, a victory that is long in coming will blunt their weapons and dampen their ardor. When the weapons have grown dull and spirits depressed, when our strenght has been expended and resources consumed, than the feudal lords will take advantage of our exhaustion to arise. Even though you have wise generals, they will not be able to achieve a good result. Thus, in military campaigns, I have heard of ackward speed but see no skill in lengthy campaigns.­"”
