Why Joe Biden Should Resign
Commented Oct 15, 2009 at 11:56:34 in World
“Whoa! I don't believe "pulling a Palin" is what she had in mind...
How many books have come out in the last 5 years involving anyone from the Bush administration where the subject claimed a "deep opposition" to something that someone did - yet didn't really DO anything about it? What good does it do to find out years later someone held such deep reservations yet was still able to get up and collect a paycheck?
I've already said I'm not sure that I agree with her 100% on this - but I understand why she's saying it.”

“***It's a paradox that has never been successful in the history of American politics.*
I can't say I remember a time when something like that has ever even HAPPENED before - and I thought that was the whole point of her piece. Why wait for the memoirs for all of the handwringing and righteous indignation to come out over ANY issue LONG after such actions are helpful!
I can't say I completely agree with her on this - but I DO see where she's coming from.”

“And of those born (like my partners sister) with diabetes? She pays out the @#$ for insurance because of her pre-existing condition.
Of course a healthier lifestyle is optimal - but that only takes care of so much in how people use their coverage. I guess I will forever be amazed at how many people will claim in one breath that we were founded on Christian values while in the next breath making sure to state they don't want to take care of "no deadbeats!!" "I gots mine - sc.rew you!"”

“I would just like to point out that you cannot opt out of Social Security or Medicare as far as i know. If that was the case I believe many would rather keep their money. I appreciate everyones input if they know differently.
I am also confused by the the thought that because the public option is only 600 billion it is fiscally conservative? Why not mandate private insurers provide a lower cost? Why do we have to spend money we do not have to pay for this? I was against the Bush deficits, I am against the Obama Deficits. I wish we would stop fighting all over the world, stop meddling in private citizens lives and let be.”

“You win on this one but as I recall he admitted the error on the air, which does not make it OK but it does show his willingness to be corrected.
These seem rather simple related to the latest issues being discussed. It has been a topic for some weeks now and I have not heard a single competent rebuttal from anyone regarding Van Jones and Mark Lloyd.”
