Your links do not prove your point. Too bad you cannot grasp a "relative" concept. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

You still cannot understand the difference between more open government, and completely open government? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

I assume this means you accepted my proof, but (as usual) have no balls to admit it, right? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

I always said you Christians do make a good example to others how a person who devoted themselves to God would behave. Thank you for providing another proof. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Yes. Executive Order 13233. Eat it. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

This should have been done long time ago. Unfortunately it takes a while to build them. Storing the used fuel is also still an issue. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Why do you need it? Your favorite Fox "news" and talk show hosts will tell you all the Truth you need to know. BTW, are you banned ofrom the Google? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

So far I haven't seen any facts, and your opinion has been proven wrong so many times so I wouldn't base anything on it. If you're saying that it would help me, this sounds like a very good reason not to do it Ok, let's try again. Even my 12yo daughter understands that a government - ANY government - simply cannot be completely transparent. There will always be classified information, and at least for some of this information everyone would agree that it should stay classified. So when a reasonable person is talking about "transparent government", this obviously doesn't mean CIA publishing their undercover spies list on their web site, or even how exactly the IRS selects tax returns for audits. Therefore the conclusions: 1. Any government transparency could only be relevant; there will be never absolute transparency, and it's unrealistic to expect that; 2. Some classified information should stay classified no matter who is the President; 3. "Open/transparent" government means MORE information available to public, not ALL information available to public. I really cannot understand why is it so hard to get. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Too bad your favorite talk show host will never tell you that those are two different Patriot acts. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Your reading skills are supreme, as usual. There are only 4 (four) items. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

You think you got it? Pray your Jesus more. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Got it. Trolls * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

I have no idea who is Jerry Springer (nor I want to). Never heard of Meet the Press as well - and I do not want to hear about it either. I'm capable to read the facts from different sources, and make my own opinion. I do not need talk shows for that. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

You obviously didn't read what I wrote. But I'll repeat: it's not absolute, it's relative. Please think about it for at least 30 minutes or until you understand what "relative" means, and then understand why your comment makes absolutely no sense. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Well, it's not absolute, it's relative. You do not have an option NOT to elect a President, so you need to see whether he'd provide more transparency comparing to his nearest competitor. And here, I believe, it's obvious. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

This one is definitely false. If a conservative is homosexual, he screams about family values, and sponsors anti-gay bills - all until he's caught in an airport stall. Smart people do not watch talk shows. But if a conservative IS a believer - and most are - he wants his God to be mentioned everywhere, from money to state buildings to public schools. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

I read somewhere that they had a statue of the boot which was thrown into Bush. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Universities have limited supply, but the demand - the number of students - is also limited. Of course. After all, the health insurance company does not develop drugs, they do not do surgeries, they do not even see patients. They just collect and distribute money, and their way to get more profit is NOT to provide more or better service - it is to screw up their customers by raising premiums, and kick out everyone who becomes too expensive to them. At some point a reasonable business would expect the customers finally gonna be pissed off, and will fight back. Because such "investigation" would take years, and at the end if the company is found guilty and got like 10 billion fine - who, you think, is going to pay it? Don't you think the insurance company will just raise your premium to pay this fine? Public option is a very good thing in terms of providing some basic comparison point - if you cannot provide service, which is better at quality/price than the service provided by the government, perhaps you should not run business at all. But after all, I do not understand why those Republicans here, who are telling us that the government cannot run anything even close to the way the private industry does. At the same time, they are telling us that the government-based plan, which is very expensive and low quality (as everything the government does, according to R's), would still kill the private industry, which supposedly has higher quality and lower costs. I can't understand it. The latest Senate bill does just that. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Welcome to the League of Copypasters. You're third. Definitely. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

IMHO too much crap like Britney Spears and Michael Jackson, and no real music like Rainbow, Slade, Dire Straits, ELO? and this one is a kickass album! * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

It also mentions something I wonder if they have numbers: Michigan Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow suggested that the Republican approach to malpractice reform was too simplistic. She said limits on damages imposed in Michigan had not stemmed increases in the malpractice insurance rates paid by doctors. As far as I know, same happened in California too. There are no reasons for a private industry to pass their profits to consumers - they may as well keep them, resulting in no savings to consumers. And I find it funny that rushmc opposes paying more taxes to the government, but seems to have no problem paying more money to the private industry so their profits are larger. Rush, why wouldn't you just send your insurer a check? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

It would be fun watching you arguing with dreamdancer. You both would copypaste each others to death. Why would you publish someone's opinion? Are you unable to make your own? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

Hey man, do you have YOUR OWN opinion based on facts? What happened about one's ability to THINK personally? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

I hope you're smart enough to understand that this is just opinion, and cannot be considered proof. This is something they SAY, which in other words is yet another opinion. That's why I request proof. If you said that, I'd ask you what facts your opinion is based on, so ask them. And yes another groundless statement. And again you just quoted what someone said, without any supporting evidence. At least someone who explained WHY he thinks the costs will be higher. Ok, let's take a look: 1. Raised insurance premium. My own insurance rates went up 50% during last two years, and my insurance company claims the raise is the same for everyone. So current situation is that we already have yearly hikes, and the real question would be whether the hikes are higher or not. Since the major issue my insurer attributed to higher rate is the growing number of uninsured people, this would not be an issue anymore, and therefore the rates will be slower. 2. "fueling higher health-care costs" is a false argument. Uninsured will not have more treatment than they have right now - and some of them will be paying for the treatment they're now receiving for free. So it's also questionable argument. And again, no proof. Same as the rest of your post. Next time please post something which proves your point instead of copy-pasting huge articles you didn't read yourself (if you did, you'd see that it is nothing more than a bunch of opinions with almost zero facts). * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *

And they will be higher if you get your way This is statement nobody even tried to prove so far. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
