    He's a wannabe. Not the vet he claims to be. Don't know if he's ever left an airplane through anything other than a covered ramp. Is Ted Kuzinski still alive? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think occupation is the goal. As someone said earlier...he jumped on W about being in Iraq. Tore into him for not doing more in Afghanistan. It's interesting to see Barack being spoon fed his own words, and the people who pushed to get him elected sharpening the knives. Afghanistan is a much tougher fight. I think W knew this. But we were blood thirsty after 9/11 and we had to kick somebody's ass. Perhaps he knew Iraq would be relatively easy and satisfy the carnivores at the same time? Either way I think Barack had his eyes opened once he took office as to the situation all over the world. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    House Democrats from the Bay Area line up against Obama's expected troop surge in Afghanistan House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, said in an interview on NPR last week: "I, myself, believe that there's not strong support on the Democratic side in the Congress for any big ramp-up of troops going into Afghanistan." Oh the quandry those on the left are facing. I feel bad for Barack. These are the tough decisions he must make and those in his own party are ready to BBQ him for it. Please don't dent the planet.

    Umm...yea...from the money machine they have in the back room. I'd laugh if that statement wasn't so sad. This bill will most likely shift the burden of insurance even more onto the back's of business. Most group plans require the employer to participate at least 50%. There are a ton of smaller businesses out there that won't be able to survive. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    I don't know anybody that thinks Wright or Ayers speaks for the Democrats as a whole. I do know quite a few people, including a number of Republicans, that think Limbaugh is the de facto head of the Republican party. So Quade...are you saying you don't support the 1st? News flash...alot of people in the US are starting to get a bit impatient with hopetychangism. They see an inexperienced President who's only answers are to pull out his uncle's credit card.

    Obama's stimulus plan promises new jobs 1/16/09 White House: Stimulus plan will add jobs 2/20/09 Obama touts job creation from stimulus plan 3/6/09 Democrats work on multibillion-dollar jobs package Reporting from Washington - Troubled by the rising jobless rate, President Obama and the Democratic majority in Congress are assembling a new jobs package that would devote billions of dollars to projects meant to put people back on payrolls in 2010 and keep them working.

    USPS is not the federal government. Sure it gets around 96 million from the feds annually but turns a profit of about 1 billion. Love it when you guys say private schools compete with state schools. The top 10 have tuition and fees of nearly $40K per year. Some more than that. Without grants and scholarships, many which are paid by the government, not many of the average folks in this country would be able to afford $160K for a degree. I haven't read the bill. I haven't read War and Peace either. Experience tells me that a 2,074 page piece of legislation contains a ton of regulations I don't think we need. Please don't dent the planet.

    Interesting article. On the surface it would appear that people died because they had no coverage. In reality they died because they got sick or injured badly. My car doesn't have all of the safety devices of say, a Mercedes. If I die in a car accident one could say I died because I didn't have a Mercedes. Same logic. Please don't dent the planet.

    - by cutting down the number of people who go to ER and do not pay, therefore having someone else (you and me) paying for it through increased premiums; - by increasing the insurance pool by requiring people to buy insurance; - by increasing the competition, allowing buying insurance across state borders and removing anti-trust exemption from insurance companies. Also the companies will have to compete with the government plan, meaning that they will have to provide either better service or better price. What other successful businesses compete with the government? None. You can't win when you are competing against yourself. BTW...is that what's in this bill? Certainly one wouldn't need 2,074 pages to fix those problems. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    I guess the"conservatives" on the far right really do support DEATH PANELS after all. So many claim to be pro life... yet really do support death on so many levels. I guess that is the definition of a good christian in this country.... support war... support death penalty... support the death of fellow americans who cant afford to live.

    Most of us already have ACCESS to HC. Getting in my pocket to subsidize 13% of the population doesn't work for me. Paying my share for the job of securing our nation's interests...not a problem. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    Yes, likely. At least hopefully insurance costs won't increase 15% a year as they are now. I'll repeat it again. How will this make it more affordable? I see you using the word 'hopefully'. Election's over...you're guy won...are we still operating on 'hope'? Edited to add: I've had some thanksgiving cheer. Forgive my snarkiness. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    Some people seem to INCORRECTLY assume that "public option" means the ONLY option. THIS IS FALSE, and therefore the poll is bogus as there is not a single option which "every other American" would use. There are and going to be multiple options, and people will choose between them depending on their priorities. As with everything else in DC the public option might start out small... Like the military? I just don't hear ya bitchin about that. I've never had a problem with a big military machine. I think it's one of the most basic things the Constitution provides for us.
