  1. I have read, and continue to read. If you are putting all of your belief eggs in that article's basket, I suggest you widen your source material. But, nothing in that article suggests that some sort of universal coverage couldn't work here. The article is unrelated to universal care. If anything, it seems as though it might support it. You cited it yourself:

     

     

     

    There is absolutely no reason the US citizens couldn't have basic health care available as do citizens of industrialized countries all over the world. Citing the current practices under the current system, in the USA completely misses the point. There are systematic issues ranging from drug company issues, to physician abuses to problems with insurance coverage. The fact that there are these issues should actually ENCOURAGE a change to the current system. Don't you think?

    Sure Tard. Don't you think the Government should run everything?

  2. My point is that revenge is NOT justice. WE are supposed to be fighting this war against evil- when we seek revenge, we become what we are fighting against. And believe me- I completely understand how tough it is to resist that urge. I will NEVER forget seeing a 19 year old outside my office balling her eyes out on 9/11 because her father worked in the Trade Center. That is something that will be with me for the rest of my life- and not in a good way. I wanted us to go over and just wipe everything out- something I am very ashamed of now.

     

    Still, we are supposed to represent something- and if it was easy to do that, everybody would do it. All you need is a little oversight to eliminate the abuses- and the changes that were made over there have proved that. Our troops, like most of us are good people- still, we all have the propensity for evil when put in a situation that will bring that out.

    Justice would be just kill the enemy , it's the nature of war.

  3. Boomer- what is your thoughts on MP's and MI's seeking revenge. Do they have a right to annoy "torture" detainees seeking revenge for the attrocities thatthe terrorists had committed?

    No they don't have that right. However if they were seeking revenge or say me personally I would just kill them and say they were trying to escape. You know 'Dead men tell no Tales.' War is hell.

  4. ?! What the hell does this mean? Is there some special test for Jewishness that a Jew must pass before they are considered a "real" Jew?

    Practice what you preach. It's probably over your head anyway. It's like the Mayor of NYC Bloomberg calling himself a Republican , running on the Republican ticket while practicing liberal princiciples. Just calling yourself something doesn't make it so ,or even being born into it.

  5. Trust me, she's not working the phone banks dialing random numbers. Think about it.

    The charity plans and hosts a rubber chicken dinner and she's hired as a featured guest "speaker".

    She makes a 10 minute prepared speech asking those in attendance to rattle their jewelry and shuck some bucks into the black box in the back of the room. People attend because she's an oddity. She's an intensely private person and they would never have an opportunity to meet and shake hands with her or any other Kennedy for that matter. She's the least articulate Kennedy I've ever seen with perhaps the exception of Will the rapist - who sat mum during his entire trial.

    Still water runs deep. I'll bet she is good in bed :cry:

  6. As the US worries about the economy, feels good about itself for electing a black man, and gets a chuckle out of Sarah Palin's extended family....

    Israel will move with a ground attack . Israel gave Gaza back to Palestine yet they continue to launch rockets. If I were Palestine I would not be looking at all those tanks prepared to move on them , I would also look in the opposite direction . The Navy Seals of Isreal most likely are in Gaza along with a number of other operatives. The real question is will Iran come to the aid of Palestine? Hamas cannot stand against the forces of Israel. There will be much blood shed on both sides, Israel will prevail. Palestine is the front man for Iran and Syria. Look for massive air strikes before any ground attack. Israel of course will not allow reporters in the combat. This will cause the liberal media to take the side of Palestine.

  7. CNN isn't all that good and neither is Fox. Personally, I like CSPAN, CSPAN 2, CSPAN 8999 and searching the net.

     

    We have to get the leaders- the suicide bombers are just regular joes conned by their leaders who don't have the guts to do the job themselves.

    Getting thier leaders would help, but this will be an on going thing for some time to come as the suicide bombers have been brought up since children to die for thier cause. If you do not have the religious beliefs they have then you should change or die and there is no in between as far as they are concerned. We joke about the 72 virgins but they actually believe it. They do not hold the value of life as you and I do.
