Dem's want everyone to be forced to live by their moral beliefs that we should take care of the less fortunate by forcing everyone to pay for universal health care. And this is different from Rep's trying to force everyone to live by their moral beliefs that marriage is between a man and a woman. That's right, folks, Dem's are the ones who tolerate diversity and fight for freedom and make sure everyone has the right to choose their own path in life.

Doug, didn't you actually do a study on this eventuality? Kinda makes you wonder what really happened to all those people getting "lost" in the mines. They're actually down there partying with a 10:1 ratio.

his DID fall off in the snow, remember? the mountains must be the problem.

they're just scared 'cause they're in range. all that business of banning headscarves and such? they should be scared.

I don't know if I'd go that far, stuff like that happened all the time years and years ago and there was no solution. We're (slowly) progressing as a nation and quality of life is better than it was 10, 50, 100 years ago. Just because medicine has the knowledge & power to fix a problem doesn't mean it's possible to fix everyone's problems. At some point, there will be people with treatable problems that just won't be treated because the cost/benefit is too high. It's all about drawing a line and somebody's going to get "screwed." Life isn't fair.

i'm just playing devil's advocate here, i'm actually a weird conservative who does think some sort of national solution may be the best way for health care. whether it affects me or people i care about is really irrelavent, since i don't believe i'm any more important than the next person and it is clearly affecting people that others care about. as it so happens, it has affected people i care about.

will another admin PLEASE make that porter's title for a day

no, just the pursuit, no promises

Fact: Lamborghini Ltd. is not able to provide Lamborghinis at affordable rates to a significant portion of the US. OK, a little ridiculous, but what are we honestly entitled to? Is health care a right? Maybe we should look into a constitutional amendment to settle this issue once and for all.

not being argumentative here, but is this problem really eliminated by having the government in charge?

ooh, the possibilities for pix

that's SO terrible and also the funniest thing I've seen in a long time!!!

I think the idea is more that voting Republicans often = fiscal conservatives, but unfortunately Republican politicians rarely fit the equation. "politician" and "fiscal conservative" are a tough combination to get right. everyone wants to spend someone else's money to benefit their "constituents" and therefore themselves.

i'd be willing to bet at least 90% of welfare recipients vote democrat. define "welfare" Alaska = second highest per capita federal spending = solidly red state It's the Louisiana of the Republican party. Underdeveloped and ridiculously corrupt. by welfare, I meant welfare. apparently, you did not? per-capita federal spending is a pretty silly way to define "welfare-living." more of a semi-accurate measure of population density, maybe.

i'd be willing to bet at least 90% of welfare recipients vote democrat.

of course, 'cause we all know a blue state job is a government job, and the government has been hurtin' for money with lower taxes, the war, etc. it all makes perfect sense.
