“Google is a censor. They have been given an extraordinary amount of power and they are not up to the task. They have the power (whim) over things that should allowed by any stretch of the imagination, Constitution or otherwise, they (Google) have become fascist , arbitrary demigods who built an empire on other people's sweat equity, you and I who were duped into contributing their time and energy as editors for "open source" search which Google quickly claimed as theirs. They are also thieves who take money for Adwords and THEN decide it's not up to their "standards" after they cash your check. Who gave them the right to decide in a free market system who makes it up the search levels and who doesn't ???? It used to be determined by hits and links. Now THEY decide, they have the power to act as judge, jury and executioner. What assurance do I have that they (Google or one of their minions) aren't being paid to crush me? and I don't mean per hit. What rights do I have to a level playing field when they control the field?? They don't operate as capitalists, they operate as dictators. As far as the disgusting Michelle Obama image, there's always going to be bad taste and fools. As we used to say, turn the dial..... the more attention you pay to bullies, the better they like it.”

“Their current position as a censor was goaded on all along by the kind of rabid and unbalanced fools who are out in full force tonight. People WANT Google to censor what is available.”

“There is no Federal Insurance (of any kind, health, auto, home etc.) Regulatory Agency. It's left to the States. There absolutely NEEDS TO BE A STANDARD SET FOR THESE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
They are ripping us off at every turn and like the vile thieves they are, blaming us for their unconscionable acts.”

“There certainly is Federal Insurance. The National Flood Insurance Program, back by FEMA is a direct result of Insurance companies either raising rate to unaffordable heights or dropping out of flood insurance coverage all together. The Federal Government stepped in and created the program.”

“I heard a story about a patient walking into this woman's office. Orly Taitz was wearing what looked like sterile rubber gloves and the patient thought, well, that's great, she cares about hygiene and her patients health until Ms. Taitz calmly walked over to the sink and proceeded to wash her hands WITH THE GLOVES STILL ON ! I guess they don't teach you the part about actually washing your hands and putting on fresh gloves at the online college of dentistry.”

“Debbie Tate is an amazing woman who dearly loved her sister. I bought a half Arabian buckskin mare from her named "Shalazar" when we were very young and had the opportunity to spend time with her and her mother and they were two of the finest people I've ever met and so proud of Sharon. She would never suggest something that wasn't appropriate regarding her beautiful sister or her husband.”

“A "Best Seller" means copies sold. It's common practice to use that title based on orders NOT actual sales to promote a book. Let's see how many copies actually sell. Will there be pictures? cause it's gonna be really hard to read.”

“I have lived in Vermont for the past ten years raising my daughter as a single parent. I have not one doubt that it would have been a much different and more difficult thing to do (raise a good citizen) in almost anywhere else in the United States. Dr. (Governor) Dean will always be a hero here for his Dr. Dynasaur program covering all children under the age of 18 as long as they're in school and providing health care for everyone in Vermont with one program or another. He is knowledgeable and courageous, his programs are cost effective and no non-sense pragmatic and hold true to his principles as a Physician and Governor, staying true to his pledge to honor the Public Trust for every single person in the State, not just the chosen few no matter who whined or shouted about it. He leveled the playing field in a very rural State (only Montana has less folks) where the whim of the weather can affect an entire valley's economy . God Bless Howard Dean, MD and former Governor of the State of Vermont.. The man knows what's he's talking about.”

emlr replied on Jun 15, 2009 at 14:21:18

“I love, lover, love Dr. Dean. Damn right he should have been head of HHS. That's one I am really upset with Obama about. In fact he should have been president. I'd still vote for him in a heartbeat.
I think what happened was that the establishment (corporations) knew that he was incorruptible and focused on the public rather than corporate America and that they could never hold sway with him. So the easiest thing to do was to cut him off at the knees at an early stage in his national career.”

“Elizabeth. You are smart & funny. A wild woman who has the courage & honesty to just shoot from the hip girl, it is what it is. My 17 year old daughter and I watched 'Zack & Miri" together and instead of either one of us being embarrassed, we were able to sit and watch it with each other (okay I admit it, there were a few times when the hand shot up over her eyes and I was relieved to see hers was already there) because on the whole it was the L:OVE STORY that shined above all the other sub plots plus the cast of characters were great and provided a lot of comic relief. Well done.

Zack Effron's cute. My generation loved hair also.”

“I guess I find it hard to read someone being "conservative" about the movie after having made Zack and Miri make a porno. I realize it didn't get a PG13 rating, but come on. If the intent of every movie was to provide a "good message" to young adults -- there wouldn't be very many made. I don't think any young adult ever thinks about how hard it would be to be a parent and sadly -- I don't know that they would listen if that were the message anyway. I'm not condoning in reality the situation, but it is just a movie as was Zack and Miri and I doubt anyone would condone making a porn movie because they can't pay their bills. But you can't get pregnant if you're not having sex and very, very few people at that age aren't having sex, especially in this day and time. There are also very few role models for people that age in this day and time as well. (i.e., Lindsey Lohan, Brittany Spears, etc.)”
