Legacy: All 543 from both Dems & Repubs...Enjoy! ...Thanks Legacy.
...That is some scary siht... force by penalty, health care upon the population and then tax it as a benefit, with several "to be announced" what in the hell this tax is even going to be, while a minimum 40% excise tax for over $8,000 of coverage at the insurer level and non-deductible, with a cost of living to be factored in.
...Well great, as that indicates that every present government worker will be taxed as a benefit (to be announced), while over $4,000 each year will have at least an excise tax of 40% going to the Federal coffers.
...And then, impose taxes and fees on branded drugs, medical equipment and insurance providers, that will raise the cost of health care even more.
...I hope the congressional idiots read this one, rather than rubber stamp it like they did for the Financial bailout and the Stimulus bill, as this is the biggest crock of government BS I have ever heard of, besides there is an energy shortage.

=========
...I see the liberal Mod is deleting posts again. If idiots that cannot even read the health bill can post their drivel, then the response should stand.
...As well, I have another issue with a Mod that posted personal email correspondence earlier from MF in a public forum. That was not cool...

It is difficult not to take them serious, when they now have their whole arm inside your pocket and wanting more. It's easy.
Just say 'No.'
They can pass all the bills they want.
They're not relevent or credible anymore.
I'm not getting their Health care..and I'm not paying a fine for not having health care..and I'm not taking their flu shot..and they're beginning to bore me with their constant chatter..and I don't care what they have to say anymore.
They're like a barking dog.
Soon you just learn to ignore it and it becomes no more than an irritation.

Obviously, you are not alone in this endeavor...

Mod: link please. ...Don't you remember what you post?
...And you even edited it after wards, as I have the original someplace as being BS.
...As a Moderator, what are you doing quoting a private email in the forum threads for? What are you doing taking sides? If you want to banter, then put on street clothes, come back and play fair.
...So no, that was not cool...

East: Given his track record for providing back-up for any of his rants, I hope you're not holding your breath Mod. ...It was you that got all bent out of shape a couple of years ago, when you said you were never on here while working and I proved you were and did with an email you sent me while working, that said you were at work.
...And no, that was not cool of me either, but who yanked your chain for the smart azz reply on here? Maybe keep it in a thread you think you know something about and can actually respond with some facts.
...Now can anyone stay on topic?

WASHINGTON – Sweeping health care legislation cleared its first hurdles in the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday as Democrats turned back a series of proposed changes by Republicans who attacked it as a threat to Medicare. Link. Awesome. And with Mass, passing the new law on assigning Teds vact seat, we really don't need snow, the last great republican hope, vote anymore.
Ya can bitch and moan about it all you want. You're twisted version of the facts mean nothing. This health care reform will go through, and it will have a public option, just as I have predicted. Just how I was right about the last 3 election cycle, just as I have been saying all along about the economy and the trend it has been showing, the recession and the unemployment dips. Not bad for a food stamping village idiot. Call me what you will. In the end I am still right and while the haters are still proven wrong. But don't pout to much, at least you got me trying to spell better.

Burns: Ya can bitch and moan about it all you want. You're twisted version of the facts mean nothing. ...My version is not twisted, not a version, but simply reading the facts as presented; try it.
...Health care costs are not going down, but because of government, dramatically up across the board, while quality is going down. Reminds me of our public education system.
...Private health is going to be taxed so heavily, that there will be little private health and when the taxpayer realizes they are going to "be announce" taxed for the amount of forced benefits, as well as a 40% excise tax on the health insurance companies and domestic pharmaceuticals will be guaranteed no foreign competition, this health care plan will last about as long as it takes to start changing the guard in 2010.
...One question and who is going to pay for it? Do remember, unemployment is dramatically rising, while collected taxes are dramatically dropping.
...I like my idea better, where the US taxpayer is providing health care of all of Iraq and Afghanistan, some 50 million people and if we just come home, there is the money for our 9 or 50 million uninsured.

Burns: But don't pout to much, at least you got me trying to spell better. ...If I can catch you early enough, you do alright.

Don't you remember what you post?
Mod: (i'm guessing her comment stems from my reply to her email which warned me not to trust the governmet. i kind of replied 'do not trust this website. it's at the forefront of the nwo conspiracy! '. maybe she believes it. ) ...And you even edited it after wards, as I have the original someplace as being BS.
...As a Moderator, what are you doing quoting a private email in the forum threads for? What are you doing taking sides? If you want to banter, then put on street clothes, come back and play fair. ...So no, that was not cool...
========= Perhaps we need moderators to moderate the moderators..
If I remember correctly..we are NOT allowed to post anything in private emails..right?
Hell..what do you expect from the 'Scarecrow" people.....who wish they had a freaking brain..
Yep..thats was a crappy thing to do mod....pretty darn crappy for sure...
Thank you SG for pointing that out.......amazing isnt it..the bias...

Why is it always the ultra-conservatives who freak out over the moderators? The moderators are even-handed (just look at the strained tolerance and pointed remarks that iam01 gets over in the R&S forum...). That doesn't mean they delete posts and ban users at the bidding of the ultra-conservatives, which is how the ultra-conservatives define "fair and balanced."
If the ultra-conservatives don't like the moderation here, there's plenty of websites that would be glad to have the opinions expressed there, and won't even require facts or a firm grasp of reality...

....Oh, you just have to get a new facial photo up Napa, so we can all see how brown that nose is becoming.
...Personally, I don't have a problem bantering with a dozen of you liberals and believe me, I am smiling or laughing on this end for the entertainment. Yet liberal, conservative, indifferent, etc., I don't care, but rather I despise the gang activity against another and especially a woman, that I often see several, including you participating in.
Like I said above, that activity is not cool.
...Besides, where is the compassion and empathy that liberals are supposed to have? This goes right along with Hitler was a socialist liberal before he became a fascist with the gang mentality of destroying anyone that did not agree with his ideology.
PS: I don't go to the R&S threads very often... they are too dangerous for me.

I get slapped down as often as pretty much anyone. The difference is, I don't whine about it. I recognize that the forums belong to MATCHDOCTOR. Not to me, not to you, not to Uncle Bob. The left-wingers don't seem to have as much feeling of entitlement that the right-wingers always accuse them of. That seems to be a failing of right-wingers, they believe that their presence on these boards means the staff of MatchDoctor has to kowtow to their every whim.
Which has been the reason for the temper tantrums that have resulted in several of the conservatives either leaving the boards permanently, or being kicked off. They ignore the liberals getting slapped down, and only see the conservatives getting slapped down. They shriek at every abuse of the liberals, but think that the moderators are too stupid to notice all the abuses of the conservatives. They play legalistic games, trying to split hairs, try to skirt the text of the rules, while boldly violating the spirit of the rules. They think that the moderators should be straight-jacketed by the rules, when the owners and bosses have supported every interpretation the moderators have made in the enforcement of the rules.
For people who claim to not want interference in business matters, outside of the old standby of the public's willingness to take your business elsewhere, conservatives certainly do seem to demand that businesses submit to outside interference quite a bit...
