  1. And CA state legislature kinda deserves it. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  2. Agree, eating them probably wouldn't be good for your health. Same as making souvenirs of them. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  3. Prove that this is a lie. So far you didn't cite any credible source. It is indeed a Republican model, so even if I wanted to do it, I wonder why would you consider this issue. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  4. That's what I put on my front door six months ago. Works pretty fine - so far only one couple of Jehova Witnesses went through AdBlock Plus with filters works perfectly. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  5. At least they had their opinion, and were not afraid to speak it. And you? You just copypasted a statement with unknown authenticity with added one-liner of you ,which is not even a statement. I said mine already - I do not like a "business model" when the companies are allowed cherry-picking the customers, and dump everyone else on taxpayers. You have anything to say? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  6. No surprise, yeah? You're avoiding answering difficult questions like plague. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  7. No reason to argue with myway.com. Anything YOU wanna say? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  8. And just in case someone feels like taking the challenge - there are actual places in the world which are exactly like this. Mostly in Africa though. Somali comes in mind. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  9. Doesn't look so to me. I wonder how many people were (correctly) identified as conservatives? To do so, you need to support reinstating draft, disagree with "There should be no National ID card" and support government censorship - kinda strange criteria for a conservative. It attributes a lot to wishful thinking. I really don't think there is a single person who believes the "Government should not censor speech, press, media or Internet." at all - which then would also include commercial speech (i.e. ads), child pornography and so on. "There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults" - so masturbating in a public park or sucking an adult dick in BART train should not be regulated as well? "No government handouts to business" should include cancellation of small business loans and subsidies to farmers? And of course the favorite "Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more" - does it include only the programs I favor, or only the programs I think worth to be cut, or equal (i.e. cutting support for Interstate Highways by 50% as well)? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  10. Am I right assuming you did not read any healthcare bills yourself, and therefore confusing "public option" and "free healthcare"? "Public option" is NO more free than any other option. The government will provide credits for those who cannot afford healthcare. Those credits might be used to buy either "public option", or a private plan - which means MORE business for the insurance companies, not less. You didn't understand the point. The point is that such behavior is EXPECTED from the companies, because they are not in the business of providing healthcare. They're in the business of maximizing profit, and the easiest way for them to do it is to cherry-pick the healthiest, and drop everyone else on taxpayers' support. And this is not kind of business model I would like to support with my taxes. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  11. Just want to make sure you understand that according to EXISTING laws, she WILL get treatment if she's sick - to be paid by you and other taxpayers. So in this case, as with anyone who denied insurance because of pre-existing condition, it is YOU who is actually losing a chunk of money saved by the insurer. In fact you're losing more than insurer saves (mostly because treating everything in ER is more expensive), but since it's "my money" vs "taxpayer money", it's understandable why the insurers don't care, but it's not understandable why you don't care. People tend to confuse health insurance with other insurance policies, like home insurance. This is a mistake. If you have no home insurance and the home burns to the ground, you're on your own - there is no "home ER" which would rebuild your home and provide all your belongings for free. But if you have no health insurance you'll receive the same service as if you had it when you need it, and the service will be paid by taxpayers instead of you. That's why a) everyone who cannot get coverage because of "pre-existing condition" is basically a taxpayer's direct payment to the health insurance company, and b) we cannot afford people having no insurance, no matter if they think they will never get sick (unless of course they sign waivers stating that as soon as he/she gets to ER, they should be immediately subjected to euthanasia and their organs should be extracted to cover the cost of euthanasia). Otherwise they WILL get sick, and we again will be paying for them. You're avoiding an answer like a politically correct liberal! Aren't you men enough to stand up behind your opinion, even if it pisses off someone? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  12. That's pretty ugly test. Just look on "Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more" - c'mon, gimme a break. I wonder why there is no "Everyone be happy and healthy" statement. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  13. Not on TV, no (in fact I do not watch TV at all). I read news, I do not watch them. I'm interested in what happens, not in what some stupid talk show host thinks about it. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  14. Have a screenshot? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  15. This is what always confuses me. Illegals ALREADY are getting free healthcare, right now - but some people are still concerned that illegals "might" get it. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  16. Yes, I did. Now the question, did you find it on the top page, or only using search? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  17. Pace yourself, you sound like an uneducated redneck. In order to be in this country permanently you are not required to know (and to speak) English. Only if you decide to get citizenship, and even there only basic English is required (and there are waivers). But if you're a permanent resident, you are NOT required to know or speak English (although it indeed helps if you do). * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  18. Could you also find a few articles there about Irish Catholic-Pedophilic Church? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  19. I don't think I missed your point; my point was just that it doesn't really matter what made her far - it's still not "free show". No matter whether it was three pregnancies or too frequent KFC visits. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  20. It definitely wouldn't mean "free show" then, as I said. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  21. No, it would be a local poor guy hired to pick up stuff from WU. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  22. And before you do so, remove your bank account from your Paypal account (in fact I suggest even do not add it). Filing a chargeback is against Paypal terms of service, and I read that some users have been charged the chargeback amount from their bank account. And they also might treat it as cash advance :) * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  23. What is "reasonable expectation"? It could range from someone watching rape porn (or even having a penis) to someone aiming a sniper rifle on a Congressperson from a nearby roof. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  24. Myself I am definitely not an Obama fan, but some of you guys are just ridiculous: Now could you tell us what the hell has Obama with this state law? * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
  25. I'm pretty sure the government loans did come with the strings attached. Even bank business loans come with A LOT of strings attached, and the government was definitely in position to dictate the terms. Thus the loan terms likely include the right to revoke the loan at any time. Which, in turn, gives all the power the government needs. Of course - if Bush's government already gave them those loans, at least Obama's government could ensure those loans are not wasted on exec bonuses. Nope, this isn't, and there are strings attached already. Subsidized housing is very regulated - a family of two cannot rent a 4-bedroom in a top neighborhood and expect Section 8 to pay for it. Food stamps are regulated too - you cannot (well, you can but it's illegal) for example buy alcohol using them. Both student loads and welfare have strings attached - in the first case you can only use it for education (and cannot for example buy yourself a Mercedes instead), in second case you need to qualify (and then re-qualify). Sure, and you have right to do so. Just be ready to pay the whole loan back. * Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. *
