    You are also exempt from the fine if the cost of insurance is more then 10% of your income. My bronze package (after subsidies) would have been 35% of my income… so at least i’m exempt…

      The funny thing is, how will they verify that? Will they run your info into the system and see what the carrier’s premium comes back as? I don’t think so. They don’t have the man power. So many more can use that as well. Plus how will they verify that a year ago when you applied that rates weren’t that high in your area? This is just a mess.
      Maybe we can exchange one President for five Pirates? At least the pirates don’t try and hide their criminal intentions.

        I wonder how many will be penalized for fudging income on their applications to try to get larger subsidies. The latest report showed up to 2 million have substantial errors in their applications. We know HHS will get to the bottom of it just like they have with their other transparent assertions.

    Sean Hannity says, “Shoot, positive spin about the ACA. Quick, we need a scandal. Let’s go against what we were for before. How long has it been since we asked for his birth certificate? Bring me Ted Nugent. And, if all else fails, Benghazi!”

      Donr need the Nuge any More. Benghazi either. 5 terrorists for a Desertor. Guess we negotiate with Terrorists now.

      What a slap in the face to everyone that has served. Especially the family members of the people killed looking for him. Not to mention the people the 5 terrorists are going to kill in future plots.

        Hi FFA, I guess you missed the big blog on Climate Change. The leftists are really going for that issue and down thumbing anyone disagreeing with them. That’s ok, we can play that game as well.

        Did you see where our wonderful National Security advisor Susan Rice of Benghazi fame said Bergdahl had served with honor and distinction? Kind of flies in the face of his unit buddies who said he was a deserter and traitor and they lost men because of him. Now the White House is saying our brave fighting men are psychopaths for telling the truth about him. What a great group of patriotic Americans we have in the White House! Obama will probably pin a medal on him and send him home to a ticker tape parade.

            Libby, your penchant for butting into other peoples posts is a terrible habit and I thought you would try to do better, but you are a hopeless cause. By the way, I was not lying about Obamacare right from the start. Everything has come true about this disastrous law and your President lied 39 times about us keeping our plans, doctors etc and you believed every word he said. I think your brain cells have deteriorated and for you, lies are what the other side says. A liberal mind cannot accept that they are wrong on anything. That is why you attack and it just shows your lack of common sense.

          Who lied, Agent? I did play. I play every Thursday in league and tee off around 4. 9 hole league but we make the turn often anyhow. Made the turn last week. Yes, boss knows I play every Thursday. He joins me every now and again, even though he’s not part of the league.

            I negotiated my Thursdays before I made my move over to this company several years ago. I also have free Pro Vs for as long as I work here. Hours are completely flexible. I am just required to get my work done. Some weeks, that takes 35 hours, some weeks it takes 55 hours. I am just expected to be a professional and execute.

            Wow Planet, free Pro V’s furnished by the employer? Do they have the company logo on them? We represent some markets that give us golf balls with their logo on them, but usually just at company/agent outings or tournaments. I usually get three or four dozen a year. Some have cut back due to belt tightening so I noticed fewer giving them now. You may be the only person I have known to negotiate for playing golf and getting golf balls furnished by a company. Quite a perk if I do say so.

            Yes, they do have the company logo on them. So, if I lose one, I’m marketing. Evidently, sometimes I want to market to fish – haha. I agree, they are quite the perks. I am going to represent in the annual Claims Assoc outing here this Friday as well. That tourney is always a good time. All about the flat stick when it comes to a best shot – hoping our group gets hot. Cheers for now.

            FFA, liberals have an additional handicap of being brainwashed by Progressive Socialists into thinking the country is on the right track and everything is working. You and I both know that is totally incorrect, but they keep trying to convince people they are right and attack those that disagree.

            Agent,

            For once I have to agree with Libby:

            As long as she makes her firm money, it shouldn’t matter.

            I think she said before she had some half a million in revenues for the firm (maybe it was another person here)

            When you get that much revenues you should be able to relax a bit. Life isn’t only about working…

            Planet, it is hard to market with lost balls if they are in the bottom of a pond. Perhaps a diver will retrieve them at some point. I don’t think I would want to hit a ball that was in a pond for any length of time. By the way, I play the Bridgestone B330 Tour ball. They seem to go better than the Pro V’s and spin just as well. If you are playing a scramble, all it takes is one good tee shot, one good approach and a putt made. Low scores abound. I finished second in my last tournament, a Catholic charities event. Those people do very good work with the proceeds.

            Good job in the tourney, Agent. I’ve played that Bridgestone ball, good ball. I still prefer Pro Vs (actually, the 1Xs). Oh, and my joke about marketing a lost ball in the pond was, “evidently, I some times I want to market to fish.” I agree, I wouldn’t want to hit a water-logged ball, either. But, they are okay to keep around as shags. I haven’t said anything political or marginal, but somehow this post will get at least 1 thumb down.

        Hey FFA, I saw an interesting article about High Crimes & Misdemeanors that can get a President impeached. This President has unilaterally changed Obamacare 23 times on a law he signed. Changes to a law have to be made by Congress and then signed into law. A President cannot make law. He is charged to faithfully execute the laws of the land. This is just one of many missteps this President has made and he has not been held accountable.

          You are a complete idiot, Agent. Obama has not “changed” the law. The implementation process has been changed by the IRS, as is allowed by the Constitution.

          Perhaps a Civic Class for you at the elementary school would be helpful. While you’re at it, you might want to also look into reading comprehension lessons.

          I have been upset about the OBama Care thing. I am now more upset that he released 5 high level terrorist back in the mix. It was stated on the CBS (Face the Nation) show that these guys will most likely be back in the mix killing more Americans. 5 high level terrorists for one deserter. Hardly seems this was in the best interest of the nation he is sworn to protect. Many of the soldiers that have been interviewed that I have seen are speaking out against this. Seems to me this alone should be grounds for impeachment. What a slap in the face to all that have served in the military.

            I don’t know about you FFA, but in the list of Impeachable offenses, two stick out that get my blood boiling. 1. Lying to the American People 39 times on tape about keeping coverage and doctors under Obamacare to further an agenda when he knew it was untrue and 2. Releasing 5 mini Bin Ladens for a deserter soldier is beyond the pale. Of course we could throw in dozens of actions of ruling with the pen, EPA, mismanagement of the economy and spending $7 Trillion in new debt, but the first two are really bad.

            FFA, I listed the first of Impeachable Offenses when Obama changed Obamacare 23 times on his own. Following are 4 more. 2. Engaging in an illegal war in Libya – He didn’t consult with Congress or ask permission to bomb Libya, he just did it because he felt like it. 3. Lying to sell Obamacare to the American People – 39 documented times on tape. 4. Violating Immigration Law and illegally implementing the Dream Act. He has ceased enforcing immigration law and is in fact dumping illegals on several cities including Phoenix instead of deporting them. 5. Releasing 5 Taliban terrorists in exchange for 1 deserter soldier which will put more American soldiers in harms way or encourage future kidnappings. Go ahead Libby and try to defend this with your best liberal spin.

            Rahms got his troubles. Last was caught running red lights on his own cameras. Numerous Parking Tickets. Of course, there is that Murder rate thing ballooning again. Wont be too long before there are calls for the National Guard to step in…. He just cant get a grip on it. Maybe if there were more jobs for people to earn an honest buck, they would opt to work. That dont seem to be a priority for the Quinn much less on the Fed level. Jobs just dont matter to politicians.

            It’s not about defending those actions, Agent. It’s about proving they are crimes.

            Changing the ACA stuff was done by regulation, which doesn’t have to go through congress. Not a crime.

            I don’t know about the war in Libya. I don’t know what Obama did or what actually happened. So that one could go either way.

            Lying is immoral and rude, but sadly not illegal.

            I’m not sure about the immigration issues. I have no clue if any laws were broken.

            Finally, the exchange of prisoners was stupid, no doubt, but again, I don’t know if any laws were broken.

            I get that these transgressions are affronts to the American public, the problem is they may not be illegal.

          Who are you talking to Libby? I was never in favor of any Individual mandate or any part of this forced through travesty of a law. Look back in the records and see if you can find one vote for Obamacare by Republicans. Whatever the issue, liberals are upside down on it. Obama has continually lied on everything and you swallow it hook, line and sinker.

            The Heritage Foundation (from YOUR side) came up with the cockamamie plan with an individual mandate. Romney (YOUR side) incorporated it in MA. Then you were all against it. I guess now you’re all for it again. Can anyone say, Syble?

            Obama and the rest of us were for universal healthcare. So much for trying to compromise with the right. No such thing is possible.

            Libby,

            The mandate was “suggested” not implemented by republicans. So don’t say “our side”. Our side rejected it.

            Romney implemented it on the state level. If failed. He even said if he is the grandfather, he can kill it.

            But back on point: STATE LEVEL is not the same as FEDERAL LEVEL.

            Not to mention, the laws were not identical, and the individual mandate is not the only thing wrong with the law. Having an individual mandate does not make the plans identical. Having exchanges does not make the plan identical.

            Limiting premium investments for growth, to 20 percent instead of 30%, just for the sake of it, is however, a bad move and a major difference. The investment side is how the claims side pays their claims, and it is why private insurance works. This is common sense.

            Far be it from me to defend the ACA. I wish Obama had more backbone and gone for what he campaigned on and what he was elected for – universal health. But he didn’t and we have this conglomeration of ideas that was put together in an attempt to appease the right by using their model (albeit not exactly.)

            And as far as the right rejecting the individual mandate, the right rejected ALL healthcare reform. That’s why Obama was elected. It was a major blunder on their part. One that they are doomed to repeat, as they have no ideas of their own other than repeal and that’s not going to fly with the voters.

            No…The republicans did not block any healthcare change. That was the democrats. They were really stubborn on things going their way.

            I already showed you the CBO rated republican plan, and I showed your their alternate plans that you admitted were they the actual alternative, you would have voted for you.

            I would have been fine with a public option.

            Obama didn’t pass this plan to compromise. Even planet and you have admitted what this plan is for:

            To make private insurance fail, and put in place a universal plan. He didn’t negotiate. He held the U.S hostage (which he did with the debt ceiling)

            Put together all your logics. You know better than this.

            You already admitted the above regarding both the universal care (which shows Obama is the one with a problem of his way or the highway) as well as the $5000 debit card for families, and insurance premiums being tax free when it comes to your pay checks (so if you make $50,000, and $5,000 is from insurance premiums, you are taxed for $45,000 instead of Obama’s plan that taxes you for $50,000 and then issues subsidies. You may say it equals out, but history shows another story. Subsidies is akin to Welfare vs the child tax credit for single moms. One worked, one didn’t, and Clinton was the one who emphasized tax reforms in favor of welfare.)

            All I know is since forever, only Democrats have put plans on the table for vote and they have been shot down by Republicans. When Republicans had control of Congress, they put forward NO PLANS for healthcare reform. That means, when they could have done something they did nothing.

            They may have all the greatest “plans” in the world, but none of them were put into bills or voted on so they really don’t count.

            A:

            They were put for vote. Check the republican website some time. They have lists of items that democrats refused to put up for vote. The number of bills is in the hundreds. Your side gets pissed when they can’t pass one bill. Our gets pissed when they can’t pass any. This is how democrats make the illusion that republicans don’t put forward ideas. They refuse to put it up for vote, like the bill that Mc Cain put forward for housing regulations in 2005. It didn’t get a “vote” but was blocked by democrats. So everyone assumes that republicans did nothing about the housing crises. This is also why occasionally they will vote “present”.

            B: The reason you aren’t seeing the plan, as I said before, is a liberal media problem. You keep on saying they aren’t putting it out there:

            YES THEY ARE. You are demonizing any company that does so, as are the democrats in office. They know how to get you riled up. The only company which puts out all conservative news on a regular basis is Fox News. You constantly demonize it, but it had all these plans spelled out, along with Forbes.

            C: Which I forgot to put above, the republican mandate, the one I said they didn’t support, was in the Reagan days. They had a republican plan and didn’t pass it by choice. The republicans were not all for the mandate. A few one off’ers were for it. The party was not. Even if you believed they were for it, you would then have to believe the democrats were more than 20 years late in admitting it was a good idea, and also for the time period they had control of congress, from 1982 to 1995, a period of 13 years, they did nothing. So pot meet kettle. At absolute best, this would mean democrats were equal, but considering the 100’s of bills I mentioned above, I think not. Getting a few bills blocked (which the democrats panic on each time) is inherently different than having a dumb as hell leader say “you ride in the back” and literally tell you not one of your plans will be passed. Don’t tell me republicans are blocking democrats. They aren’t. They have had hundreds of plans blocked.

            You’re just plain wrong on your idea of conservatism, and I will ask you again:

            Why do so many have this same issue as you? Especially the youth, who are overwhelmingly democrat?

            Why don’t they see these things I’m talking about?

            You keep saying: it’s the republicans!

            Their plans are good. They can’t be making good plans and intentionally not marketing them. The only possibility is that democrats have had a foot hold since FDR and they won’t let it go.

            1959-1995 we didn’t have a republican majority once, before that we had 2 years 1957 to 1959, and that first year, they tried to pass a civil rights bill which democrats stone walled. The civil war. Segregation. The democrats have taken the wrong side every time. The people don’t change, they pass down their allegiance. You came, from racist segregation ancestors, and they merely changed their tone for the public. It was called the “republican revolution” for a reason Libby, republicans were all but wiped out after being (wrongly blamed) for the depression (which as a side comment Herbert Hoover basically raised minimum wage, something that until the 90’s we considered the biggest cause of the deepening of the depression, sound much like democrats now?). Your side has power that needs to be stopped at all costs.

            I’ve answered this question so many times for you and you refuse to accept my explanation.

            Your side does a crummy job of marketing themselves and they have done a HORRIBLE job of choosing the people to “represent” their party for them.

            Pick someone (actually more than one) halfway likeable and charismatic and get your message out. If you won’t accept that marketing your party is a big part of success then you are just out of touch with reality.

            He is openly stating that like Rosa Parks, Republicans should ride in the back (racism and bigotry ok as long as people don’t like you apparently)

            Libby, he wasn’t taking their ideas in the healthcare debate. This was his comment during that debate. Day one he said no to any of their ideas. Then he started to say he was doing their ideas because he had a mandate and exchanges.

            This was what, a 2,000 page bill, how many pages do you think the mandate and exchanges took up?

            It does not make it a republican bill to put in two items that are (supposedly) republican.

            They are not out of touch with reality, and our people aren’t saying things like you ride in the back, and these people will put you back in chains (intentional to start race issues)

            Their medical plans are good.
            Their social security plans are the only ones that don’t only leave how much are we taxing for social security (aka 401k plans, roth plans, SRA and other plans)

            They are the only ones who have had new good plans.

            It is marketed. You don’t listen to the right companies, because your side has been successful as labeling those stations. I have given you the links. You didn’t see the links because you chose not to. Stop blaming the republicans for your ignorance. They can’t do your research for you, especially when you WANT to believe they are bad.

            Also: How is punishment a form of incentive?

            How about instead of a fine to encourage you,
            making health premiums deductible, and giving credits to buy it?

            Bob – Was this before or after the Republican’s openly stated their one goal in life was to make Obama a one-term president? These are also not words of a leader:

            “The single most important thing we want to achieve,” McConnell said, “is for President Obama to be a one-term president.”

            They figured that if they refused to cooperate on anything, they could later tell voters that the president hadn’t accomplished anything and that he had failed to reach across the aisle. McConnell and his caucus dove into that project hook, line and sinker, threatening to destroy the nation’s economy by not raising the debt limit, blocking jobs legislation, eschewing compromise on the Bush tax cuts, refusing to staff the newly-created Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or the National Labor Relations Board, and blocking even uncontroversial federal judicial nominees.

            How’d that strategy work out for you?

            There is nothing wrong with saying you want someone to be a one term president, when that president is a bad president.

            Should they have said their number one goal is to not run elections against Obama?

            GROW UP.

            And my references were both regarding racial charging in politics. Back in chains, back to the back of the bus?

            What I said was that if republicans had a choice in the healthcare plan, as you say they did, Obama would not have said such comments.

            He says one thing, that they are getting what they want, AND says they ride in the back?

            How exactly is that dominating the healthcare issues?

            That was HIM dominating them. That’s why it makes him a bad leader to say it.

            The republicans saying democrats don’t want republicans to win? Is a one sided, non two faced, comment. Perfectly fine.

            You are not balanced, you haven’t figured out the secret hypocrisy that makes republicans equal to democrats. Do you have any fucking idea how many 20 30 and 40 somethings think exactly as dumb as you?

            How many talk like me Libby, and be fucking honest. You always say they all do. NO. THEY. Don’t.

Yes, we have seen how efficient the government is running healthcare or anything else for that matter. Please don’t try to say it was because of lack of funding.

      Agent – if you don’t want universal coverage, you are not obligated to use it. Go ahead and buy your own insurance. That’s how it is in the U.K. Ever heard of Harley Street doctors? Those are for the wealthy that prefer to forego universal coverage and purchase their own. It doesn’t always have to be one or the other, you know. You guys are so unimaginative.

        Universal coverage can be done with private as well Libby.

        We actually can’t opt into better coverage or Cadillac plans so to speak. The government would determine coverage levels.

        If I made a good living, and wanted to pay for a hip replacement coverage that would let me get it now, for example, and made a $50,000 income, (middle class) I could do that, and the whole middle class could do that with private insurance.

        Put in single payer, and it gets worse, services like that get back logged.

        It is exactly the middle class that gets harmed the most.

        In your scenario, the middle class has two options:

        accept the lowest level coverage for all,

        Or be out paid for by the rich, who can cut in line.

        What you just pointed out is exactly why the wealthy like the universal plans in UK: They can out pay you every time.

            I guess I should clarify further that in order for the government to match the efficiency of private, they would have to invest premiums paid in vs paid out.

            You’re in insurance. You know this.

            The investing allows for insurance companies to pay out slightly more than they receive each year. The government cannot do that.

            And, it creates more jobs, and more capital.

            Win, meet win.

            Why do you want to put the government in charge, cost healthcare jobs, remove the high paying underwriter jobs, and professional service jobs, when we already know it can be done by private with all those things?

            I am allowing both public and private. And I don’t agree it would cost jobs. All of those people would still be needed to provide care, process claims, administer coverage, etc. And I don’t already know it can be done privately, because it hasn’t been. Not for 100% of Americans, it hasn’t.

            Libby,

            First and foremost: Yes it has been done for 100% of Americans. We have medicaid for the poor and elderly, and medicare, and private. You cannot be refused treatment for catastrophic care. In terms of cancer, the only one that you might get denied care for, coincidentally the U.S. has equal if not better survival rates. Which means the 100% care countries are not 100% care. 100% insurance is not 100% care. You need to stop this argument. If what you were saying was true, 15% of our population would die from not having insurance, and it would affect our survival rates. As of now, despite having obesity rates 3 times that of Switzerland and Canada, homicide rates 2 times, vehicular deaths 3 times higher, we have a similar life expectancy. We do not, have, a health care problem in comparison to universal healthcare countries. Each of the 3 leading causes of death are impacted by obesity. Most people who are obese die much earlier, you won’t live past 60 with extreme care. This is just a fact. So the fact that these people are not dying in troves here, shows they get treatment. They then get a bill and go bankrupt, but they get treatment. They are not dying.

            All of the workers would be needed, but the government would not invest, and therefore would not have the same revenues coming in. Jobs would need to be cut. It is just a fact. The investments is key. You cannot say the government would do as good with 1 dollar, at least 10% costs, leaving 90% remaining, as opposed to the 1.0 to 1.09 combined ratio that you know all these insurance companies tend to have, (and that combined ratio is after overhead costs, and including salary jobs of $50,000 to $100,000 for the underwriters, and CEO’s) This creates incentive for the CEO’s to do better as well, allows high paying jobs which whether you like it or not is good, and good ol’ capitalism

            Have you looked into private vs public worker’s comp? This has been done before. You want us to pay those workers what, minimum wage, or maybe $30,000 a year? You know private sector is better at this.

            Above you didn’t say you allowed private and public. You said that private still existed in universal countries because you could pay for coverage yourself. Who has $200,000 dollars sitting around? Who even has $10,00 sitting around?

            You like universal systems, and that is a serious flaw.

            Both, fine. Liking universal is dangerous, and could only be due to emotional issues, not tangible ones, with the republican party. That is also dangerous.

            I know you thought I over stepped bounds with my Nazi comparison, but it is comparable. If we allow ourselves to think, oh dang it, those CNN and Fox News supporters (whether kotch bros, or jews) it will lead to the same power that Nazis had over their people. It has happened. It will happen again if you don’t watch it.

            Providing universal care and in addition an option for buy-up coverage or totally separate is having both. How else would you propose doing both?

            And as far as the medicaid, medicare, insurance argument, we have had this ad nauseum. Not all “poor” people qualify for medicaid. They also cannot afford private. Those are the uninsured.

            Regarding trauma care versus healthcare, they are not one and the same. People DO die in America because they had no insurance to cover early detection, conservative treatment and preventive medicine.

            Going to the hospital with a broken leg will get you treatment (healthcare) on an emergency basis. You can not go into a hospital without insurance and say, I have a history of blah-blah in my family and want to have it checked out. You get that kind of healthcare when you have insurance.

            Libby,

            Yes, we have had this argument. Show me a number of people dying from lack of insurance, that is not matched by universal care lack of MRIs (we have way more MRI’s per thousand doctors) lack of treatment options, etc. The fact remains, if they were dying Libby, it would have to be 15% of the population.

            Anyone who does not qualify for medicaid and medicare, would be someone working. Anyone working gets insurance unless they are part time. Anyone working part time and going to school gets insurance from the school most of the time, because they would be low income. Anyone who doesn’t have medicare and medicaid and insurance, there is a law requiring care be given for any matters that require immediate attention. The only one that can get by this, is repeated treatments, like cancer, which sometimes, very rarely, aren’t treated. Then when we compare cancer survival rates, we are equal to universal care countries, despite being higher risk due to eating styles (obesity is less responsible for cancer than soda, twinkies type products, and mc donalds). So if our uninsured are dying, provide the area, the number, and explain why our life expectancy is equal to other countries, despite being fatter, at greater risk for cancer, diabetes, and heart attack, as well as homicide rates being double and vehicular being three times greater. The only possibility is that we are providing more care. Not less.

            Moving forward: Yes you can walk out and say you have a concern that requires preventative treatment (MRI, CAT SCAN etc). My brother just did it. They didn’t even ask for insurance. His leg was swelling on occasion, though not while we were there. They suggested an MRI. He got it done, paid out of pocket, no payment due at the time.

            What preventative treatment as a side comment Libby? Are you delusional as to what hospitals do?

            You keep comparing preventative to catastrophic. Preventative care is the lowest cost! You can absolutely go in and get preventative care. Even the higher costs my brother already did and got a bill, numerous times. My aunt went in with concerns she might be going blind, they checked, found an issue, and yup, she was going blind. Then they fixed it. No insurance, they just sent a bill. Of course she died some time later because the idiots had mersa in the hospital.

            You are creating scenarios that do not fit with reality, because you are indoctrinated on the left and you refuse to admit it.

            You have not once denounced a single hot item that was left leaning.

            Just admit you’re wrong on the health issue. It’s getting old.

            I guess to shorten it up:

            You are saying what is “possible” in our system.

            I like to talk the numbers.

            And here are the numbers: Obesity over 30%.

            greater than 90% of our population drinks fake sugars, sweeteners, in coffee, soda, and partially hydrogenated oils (banned in most universal healthcare countries on that last one)

            Why are we within a year or two of each of the best countries?

            Explain Libby. Why?

            You know we live worse than them. Smoking is more common here. Tobacco chew (leading to cancer).

            Why are our deaths equal if people aren’t getting treated?

            A lady just died in Canada and they didn’t have the type of funding to fly her out to a hospital as needed. I have personally in Washington witnessed several people flown to the hospital, middle class, when they had an injury. They received a hefty bill later, but, as that car commercial says “they lived.”.

            Health insurance is for catastrophic care. Life choices are for preventative.

            You list me one preventive care that would solve obesity, cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, that doesn’t involve mostly diet, and MRI’s, which we already have access for in this country.

            Pap smears and mammograms? They are covered, but even in the absence of being covered, they are cheap, and they bill you after doing it.

            What preventative care Libby? I’m tired of your what ifs. List it.

      Not all VA hospitals / clinics were audited. In fact it was a very small percentage of all VA locations.

      There are many that work very well. My husband has no problem getting appointments within days – 2 weeks was the longest he had to wait and that was because he had conflicts in his schedule. My dad also had no problem getting in within a couple days. Just because there are some useless administrators out there doesn’t mean they are all bad.

        My dad had his cancer treated at the VA. After they botched his diagnosis for well over a year, he had to pay for a private doctor on his own. Problem solved. The VA did positively nothing for him. Had he stayed with their doctors, he would be dead today. They missed his cancer of the prostate for several years before a private doctor diagnosed it. He went back to the VA to save money as he’s older. The VA did nothing for him. I can’t say they are all bad as I don’t know that, but the one he went to would have put him in his grave had they continued to misdiagnose him.

          And I want to clarify what I mean by mis-diagnosis. They tried to tell him he had kidney problems associated with diabetes the first two years he went to the VA. He has no kidney problems. He had prostate cancer. If I could put into words how angry this makes me, I would, but I can’t. Again, I won’t say they are all bad, but I can tell you some of them need to be closed.

          uct, one of my close friends had a gall bladder infection. He went to the VA and the yokels there had him on anti biotics and then said they didn’t have a general surgeon to take it out. It got worse and worse and finally he had to check himself out and come back home and have it done privately. When I visited him in the hospital, he said his doctor told him he would have lasted no more than a week before he was dead. The infection had spread to the intestines and part of them had to be removed. He had a tough recovery, but is ok now. I’m sure that Harry Reid will say these stories are all lies made up by the Koch Brothers and have no merit.

Massive waits, massive fraud, massive mismanagement, poor service.

    So what you are saying Libby is that 300 million have to have low performing expensive inefficient single payer health insurance and the elite can buy their own. That sounds about right for the elitists politicians and movers and shakers in business and to heck with the masses, right? I hate to tell you and Planet, but you are neither a politician or a mover and shaker so you would be stuck with the alternative and it is not a pretty sight. Ask any veteran how his VA coverage is working for him.

      Hey, Agent, it sounds right up your Republican alley. It’s no different than it is right now. The wealthy can afford coverage and the poor can not. At least give them some type of health care coverage instead of nothing. Single payer health insurance beats the hell out of no health insurance.

      And don’t worry about what I can and can’t afford. It’s none of your business. If a veteran is not happy with the medical care at the V.A., he can always seek treatment elsewhere. I know plenty of vets that have great care at the V.A. My whole family and most of our friends were military. What did you serve? 2 years? Stateside? Are you even eligible for V.A. benefits?

        Really Libby? Just when I think you might get back on track with reasonable comments, you reach a new low. You are getting down there in boogereater and Ins 102 territory. That is not a good place to be. What makes you think the poor cannot get coverage? They do have Medicaid and that is single payer that costs them basically nothing to get. How can you possibly defend the VA given the facts that have come out about them. Do you never see the news at all or are you just stuck on Huffington Post or MSNBC. One of my friends nearly died at their hands 3 months ago for lack of treatment. Thank goodness, he had other resources and was able to get his life saving surgery privately. A lot of vets can’t do that and end up dying at their hands. Yes, I served 4 years, about half of it overseas during the Vietnam War and I am eligible, but they will never see me on their doorstep. I don’t have a deathwish like your family does. Keep on using them and see what happens.

          And newsflash, Agent, not all poor people are eligible for Medicaid. If you work a $11 and hour job, that could disqualify you. I’d like to see you try to live and support your family on $11 an hour, including health insurance. You’re an entitled moron that knows nothing about how the other half lives. Typical Republican.

            Yes, Agent, more people are eligible for Medicaid under the ACA. That still is not the same as universal healthcare coverage. I know you don’t understand the mechanics nor the nuances of the issues, so I will not try to explain them.

            What does a scholarship to the UNC have to do with price of tea in China? Way to deflect the attention away from the issue at hand.

Their level of incompetence is unparalleled in the history of medicine and they are crooks to boot fudging their numbers while vets were dying. This administration should do the right thing and give all vets vouchers to get treated right away by private doctors and hospitals, but I doubt they will.

By the way, notice the deflection when I said that 2.9 million signed up for Medicaid and their applications have not been processed and she said more are eligible for Medicaid under the ACA. If they are eligible, why can’t they get processed for coverage? Could our stupid bureaucrats be responsible for that? I heard today that the VA was using software for appointments that dates back to 1985 as testified by a VA official. No wonder they had such a backlog. Why was their system never updated when they have received very adequate funding for many years? The quick answer is they are total incompetents.

Of course their teeth aren’t nearly as efficient as a Dobberman for that (I experienced that one first hand when I broke up a dog fight back in my teens, pit bulls break bones without leaving much of a mark, the person who got attacked by the doberman was seriously torn up) Agent is technically correct but I don’t really care.

            Agent,

            I did see that. I was more intrigued by your comment about the Koch bros though. She side stepped it and said it wasn’t relevant. I think it is, when it comes to the fact that she says for some reason if they finance anything whatever the finance must be bad, and she is all over the koch bros like white on rice constantly.

            $25 million is a lot for a good purpose.

            Some businesses finance campaigns against the government and for good change, because they are the only ones who can. The government has done a good job of dominating most political fields, someone has to break it. Instead, the fact that they are in business means they are no longer an American to Libby (though she doesn’t even realize it and doesn’t do it intentionally) she disregards any wealthy person who puts input on the economy (with the exception of the actual bad ones like Warren Buffet). Unlike her, I trust capitalism. It works. Regulated capitalism is the cause of most our issues.

            Libby tends to think a business donating and being active is the equivalent to cronyism. I bet you money, she thinks that makes the koch bros guilty of cronyism, which really just shows she needs to get a better understanding of what it is.

            Bob – you do know I’m here, right? You talk about me like I’m not.

            It’s funny you think you can expound on what I think and feel, yet you have never met me. Here is a short list of your recent ASSumptions about me that are false:

            1) She says for some reason if they finance anything whatever the finance must be bad. FALSE I said the Koch Bros financing a “study” denying climate change did not make it a valid “study.”

            2) Instead, the fact that they are in business means they are no longer an American to Libby. FALSE Where the hell do you get this stuff?

            3) She disregards any wealthy person who puts input on the economy (with the exception of the actual bad ones like Warren Buffet). FALSE I have no problem with wealthy people. Only the ones that use their wealth to buy votes.

            4) Unlike her, I trust capitalism. FALSE I believe in capitalism.

            5) Libby tends to think a business donating and being active is the equivalent to cronyism. FALSE Financing a study to debunk what is proven science is NOT donating. The fact that KB donated to the Negro College Fund does not mean anything to me one way or another. I’m sure there was a reason for them to do this that benefited them.

            And this comment takes the cake! “I don’t care about your argument. It can be whatever. I do care about your tone you give. It is rude.” LMFAO!!!! This coming from the man that “hands me my head”, “goes for my face”, insults me and calls me names! That is rich, my friend.

            FFA, I have lost count and it was up to 26 hospitals with major problems the last I saw. I think it was a pandemic of biblical proportions. These so called administrators were collecting bonuses on our dime for fudging their appointment records. They should be in jail for this, but wonderful Eric Holder will probably not prosecute them. Why should he? He hasn’t prosecuted anyone else for wrongdoing and is one that is in Contempt of Congress himself for Fast & Furious. Aren’t these people just wonderful?

            The accusation I am hearing on the news at Hines is that they were letting people die to keep down expenses so they could hit their bonus money.

        Thanks for the correction on the dogs Bob. We had a savage debate on them a few weeks ago. There is a good reason why Pit Bulls are the most feared dog and the #1 forbidden dog with Insurance carriers. They cause more serious maulings, deaths & bite claims than all other breeds combined. #2 are Rottwilers, #3 are Doberman’s, #4 are Chows. All the others fall way back of these.

          I’m surprised dobermans aren’t number 1.

          You should have seen what the doberman did to the girl. I just had a busted up hand, the teeth didn’t do much piercing or tearing at all.

            Libby,

            Did I blame the dog?

            Pit bulls have lock jaw and Doberman’s, when they attack, have extremely large teeth, that have dips and jaggies, (look at other dogs some time. Dobermans have very different teeth) and it tears. A chihuahua doesn’t tear.

            But moreover, yes, Pitbulls and rotties, and doberman dogs were all breed to bring out “jealous” traits, in order to make a watch dog. They do have traits that make them more prone to attack.

            You keep saying not to blame the breed, but have you studied dog breeds at all?

            The “jealous” trait does not always turn into violence. But the moment for example, an environment changes, like a new home, and a new pack unit arrives (a baby) there is risk that no human can ignore. After Katrina a pit killed a child due to this. You can’t train for that Libby.

            And comparing rape victims is not ok.

            Not only do I study breeds, I am an avid dog lover and pet(s) owner. I have personal experience with pit bulls and understand their traits. However, it is incumbent upon a pet owner to not only train it’s animal (to their best ability) but to be sure they are never in a position to harm another.

            And just for your edification, Pit Bulls do not have any special physical mechanism or enzyme that allows them to “lock” their jaws. If you compare a Pit Bull skull to a skull of any other dog breed, you can see with the naked eye that both skulls share the same characteristics and general bone structure.

            Libby,

            Pretty much all dogs do lock jaw, whether by mechanism or just simply keeping their mouth shut. Pit bulls just happen to be good at it.

            And on being an avid dog researcher, the girl I was with was a dog trainer, and veterinary assistant, grand fathered into vet tech. The dogs were never harmed.

            Dogs with aggressive behavior can become aggressive for life, from something as simple as one dog decides on a given day to eat out of another’s food bowl. That is what had these dogs start to not like each other, one time, just once, when they were puppies Jadzia ate K’lar’s food. K’lar attacked even as a puppy, and then they kept them in separate kennels, and made sure they were watched at all times when they were outside together, or one back yard one front yard. And even though it happened years prior they kept the dogs separated ever since. The ONE day that they were in a house together, (a new house) they attacked each other. My girlfriend and I got in between. The doberman tore my girlfriend to shreds. There was blood everywhere. The pit bull broke my hand without leaving much of a mark. I knew the dogs well. They were not trained poorly. They were made home made meals, and were treated very well. Dobermans and Pitt bulls will be naturally aggressive to outsiders, and or in new environments and you are right, it takes considerable training to stop. Which means, it is the dog that you have to train and the owners can fail without being bad owners.

            As for my example with children and new environments, you cannot train the breed out of that possibility. You go tell the parents of that child that they trained their pit bull wrong and it was their fault m’kay?

            First of all, to have a pit bull and doberman in the same household is foolish, at best.

            Second, you don’t just train the dog. You also train the owner.

            Third, you don’t let your aggressive dog around other dogs or children. That’s part of being a responsible pet owner.

            First of all:

            If having a doberman and a pitbull in the same house is stupid, it’s stupid because of the breed. Also: When do you expect they might cross in the real world? Because the moment a pet is ok with attacking another it is ok with attacking a human being. Have you been around owners who were attacked, and seen their methods? I have.

            Second:

            No. In the case I said you train the dog. Vet tech. I was talking about if you own a dog, to be a responsible owner, you have to train the dog. I am making the assumption of a good owner. You are making the assumption of a bad. I’m talking a perfectly good owner. And the first thing they have to do, is train the dog so it doesn’t attack. That means the dog is a problem.

            And third:

            Don’t let your dog around “other” aggressive dogs or children?

            That is a paradox, that proves aggressive dogs will always be aggressive, and still shows the owners are training around the dog’s aggression, therefore, it is the breed.

            Also: Don’t have kids if you have a pitbull? Don’t live in an area where the house might be destroyed with a pit bull? Are you crazy? They were in the middle of Katrina. They didn’t have an outfit for the dog. The dog was the risk. Not them.

            You need to apologize for your statement to that family NOW.

            I will not accept your comment regarding an innocent child’s death while you blame the parents and not the DOG that killed it.

            The dogs that attacked my ex and I were the problem. Not my ex, who sheltered animals, more than you have ever engaged I am sure, and myself, who also took in animals to shelter. My cat became a suckler and completely attached to me. My cats acted like dogs. My dogs, loved me and her. I had doberman’s since. Even Zeus, the most gentle, would always have the ridge on his back go up at dog parks. And I knew if he was put in the wrong circumstance, with a baby alone or with another dog, he would attack.

            If being responsible is not allowing a dog to be in that position, being responsible is also acknowledging that the dog is aggressive, and it is the breed.

            I never said aggressiveness is not in the breed, bob. Where did you learn to read???

            I said, if you have an aggressive dog you should not allow it around other dogs &/or children. Is that not true?

            I also said don’t ONLY train the dog, you also train the owner. I can’t drop my dog off at the trainer and pick it up trained. I have to be trained, as well.

            My remark about not letting aggressive dogs around children was not directed to the family in Louisiana, you moron. It was directed to owners of aggressive dogs.

            Get a life.

            And this dog fight between a pit bull and a doberman was entirely your girlfriend’s fault. If she were really a vet tech, she would have known not to have those two breeds in the same household – let alone feed them together. She’s as big a moron as you are.

            Dobermans Rotties and Pit bulls are dogs you don’t own kids with,

            Because they are dangerous breeds.

            If you need a trained owner.

            It’s because the breed has issues. End of story Libby. The dogs are problems.

            If you aren’t supposed to have two breeds in one household, it is the breed.

            She thought the same as you, that training could stop it.

            Training didn’t stop it.

            So it is the breed.

            Just admit it and shut up.

            When dogs attack no matter what when exposed to each other,

            Their breed is a problem.

            Fuck you.

            You cannot say phrases like that to me.

            The reason we end up fighting all the time isn’t me. It is you saying crap like “romney loots and pillages!” and then you don’t back up your argument. That is a fighting phrase.

            While I say:

            Hillary doesn’t create jobs by giving speeches. Romney does through making firms profitable.

            And then you go off your rocker saying I insulted Hillary.

            It is not the same.

            I don’t really care about the swearing at you at that point, because you are just a vindictive bitch, not worth my time. We are done in this article again, later!

            The breed is a greater risk. Stop with the bull crap. You went on a tirade of crap because I said I’m surprised that dobermans aren’t higher on the list? And my argument was actually in terms of how much damage they can do when they attack vs the number of attacks.

            Doberman’s teeth are horrible. They tear like crazy when they shake their head. Thus why blood was everywhere, from my ex getting torn apart.

            Saying blame the dog not the owner, is disregarding the risk of the dog / breed.

            Just knock it off.

            Dogs are risks, based on breed more than owner.

          Let me give some background Libby:

          I owned two german sort hair pointers. These two dogs, were the sweetest dogs I have ever had.

          I had a doberman and a pit bull that when I got with my ex I helped care for. These two dogs were the most jealous and violent.

          I had a doberman and a min pin. The min pin was basically always aggressive, but didn’t attack. The doberman was extremely gentle. He was a great dog. But he still panicked and got jealous often wen he was in new environments. I liked to call him “dopey”. The way he ran in water was hilarious. But at the same time as being generally care free and dopey, every now and again he would completely go into a mode where he would attack if the thing he was worried about got close to him. This could be something as simple as a large person, don’t ask me why, he didn’t like large people. He didn’t like kids.

          I took care of a rottie, well quite few rotties and dobermans. Oddly they get along with each other. But they do not get along with other dogs.

          Then there are my experiences with dogs like labs, collies, and mixed breeds. Isis never once threatened anything. The lab only became violent after it went blind, deaf, and was extremely ill (like most dogs will do). The collie was very friendly.

          All same owners, same care takers. So why the difference Libby?

            Read my lips you ignorant turd.

            I NEVER SAID AGGRESSIVENESS WASN’T IN THE BREED. I said it’s up to the owners to be responsible if they own an aggressive breed.

            And yes, training DOES help with behavior. It won’t change a trait, but you can train the behavior somewhat.

            It seems you had many aggressive dogs and only one that was not. Seems there’s a trend there with the owner…

            The breed will determine the dog’s traits.

            It’s up to the owner to protect others from an aggressive dog. It’s not the dog’s fault if they act like a dog.

            You said yeah blame the dog.

            My concept has been overwhelmingly the same, which is YES BLAME THE DOG in the case of violent breeds.

            You have consistently said it is the owner. Which disregards the fact that there are violent breeds.

            I will not blame the owner, for the fact that doberman have teeth that are terrible and can do massive damage. I won’t blame the owner for the dog attack either, as she is a vet tech. She raised Jad’zia fine.

            The dog is to blame in the case of bad breeds.

            The dog is not to blame for being a DOG. If the owner can’t handle that breed, they shouldn’t own that breed. It is 100% the owners responsibility to make sure their dog does not have the opportunity to attack a person or another dog.

            And yes, if you step in between two dogs fighting (especially a doberman and a pit bull) you are a MORON. Throw a bucke to water on them. That will separate them. Then you grab their collar and put their hind quarters between your legs dragging them apart. You’d think a vet tech would know that.

        Yes Bob, the left is constantly on the attack against the evil Koch Brothers. I wonder sometime how many of the leftist rich have made a donation of that size to a worthy organization. They are notoriously stingy with their money to charity as shown on tax records. Now that Hillary & Bill are worth north of $100 million, do you think they are donating much of that personal wealth to charity? I know he has a foundation, but how much is his in it?

            Libby,

            You always argue on minor points, would you rather I say get your dick sucked and write a book about it? It’s worse.

            Not to mention:

            I severely doubt a relationship would ever be purely oral.

            It was hardly a “relationship.” You could have said had oral sex to be accurate. You never worry too much about details, though, do you?

            And I wasn’t aware his book was about his sex life with Miss Lewinski. Another stretch of the truth, bob-style.

            A sexual relationship is a relationship Libby!

            And the fact that you are just so disgusting of a human being to point out that minor detail shows a lot about you.

            When did you last see a girl who would be ok with a purely sexual relationship in which she only sucked cock?

            Since you want to be vulgar so will I.

            I know of only one, which I won’t go into. And that one, always has sex included in it at some point if the sexual relationship goes on for a prolonged period of time.

            Saying he never “had sex with her” is vulgar.

            You are trying to define the sex. In my book, sucking someone’s cock is a form of sex.

            besides which, “sleeping with” someone isn’t “sex” either Libby. I don’t think when people have sex they are “sleeping” do you?

            So you clearly took something that wasn’t vulgar, and made it vulgar. And I’ll give it to you vulgar when you do.

          You mean Democrats like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and Michael Bloomberg who have all committed to giving away half of their mulit-billion dollar fortunes? I didn’t see the Koch Brothers on that list. Combined they have as much money as Bill Gates ($72B with a “B”) so $25M is a drop in the tax-deductible bucket to them.

          Both you and bob have a distorted image of Democrats. Not surprising, really.

            I mentioned Warren Buffet. And he is not a good guy. We already have studies regarding capital gains taxes, and they don’t bring in additional revenues. If he wanted to pay more taxes, he could. If Bill wanted to pay more taxes, he could. They are liars for public opinion.

            The majority of CEO’s who are democrat, are so in order to not have the public ask questions about what they think about social hot issues, or to basically have you be able to say “he’s democrat, he likes me!” remind me, what happened to that CEO recently who resigned because of LBGT issues?

            Your comment only proves what you think about republicans is wrong.

            If a CEO owner is democrat it’s a good thing, if they (koch) are a republican question them?

            WHY?

            You just questioned why Koch bros wasn’t on the list. Well let me ask you why Warren buffet is? Could it also be an ulterior motive?

            You need to see all sides to the picture. You try to spell out motivations before you even acknowledge the why someone is republican as a CEO.

            The answer is DHT in Oregon, UPS in Ohio, Comcast in Washington State, JP Morgan Chase on the federal level, CRA regs on the federal level, preferential treatment in the tax code on the federal level, and general government decisions on the business level.

            Plenty of (jewish) businesses were not on the Nazi bandwagon. And Hitler said to question them.

            Are we back on that route of reasoning, rather than actually analyzing the two parties?

            Bob, you’re an idiot. I was responding to Agent’s assertion that wealthy democrats are stingy and do not give to charities.

            I then pointed out that Gates, Buffet and Bloomberg have all made “The Giving Pledge.” This is a pledge to GIVE AWAY half of their fortunes. Check it out – the Koch name is nowhere on the list. So did they donate $25M? Yeah, so what? These people are giving away Billions (with a B). Go suck it.

            You replied to both of us, and said I am clueless on democrats.

            I am not clueless. I mentioned Warren Buffet in my commentary of democrats who are liars, and support a tax plan mainly in order to be likeable. The numbers don’t support the tax plan, neither the revenues or benefits, (which are non existent due to the harm on the economy).

            $72B with a B is not their cash. It is all their assets.

            Even so, in 10 years that would be $250,000,000, which would be a considerable sum of cash, and that is just one aspect of charity they give to. I am sure they don’t make $72 billion a year, that is their life’s work. Those numbers are favorable.

            You call Warren Buffet a liar because he supports a tax plan that you don’t agree with? And just FYI – the Giving Pledge members pledged to give 50% or more of their wealth to charity. An estimate of the contribution promised by the first 40 donors, based on their aggregate wealth as at August 2010, was at least $125 billion.

            And again, Koch Brothers are not on the list. And the Koch Brothers did not give $25M of their own money to the NCF – they gave corporate money.

            The people I am talking about are giving away HALF of their PERSONAL FORTUNE. And the ones I listed are all Democrat.

            And, as an aside, here is an interesting article about the difference between Republicans and Democrats. Not looking to favorable for your side.

            I can call him a liar, because he supports a tax plan based on “fairness” and claims it would increase revenues and help the poor, whereas research shows that capital gains tax increases do not increase revenues.

            You are just inept.

            And you can call Romney a looting pillaging corporate fuck (more or less)

            Without fact checking that? See my link below.

            I CAN call Romney a looter and corporate raider, because that’s what he did. Whether the company was failing or not. He put plenty of them out of business. I did fact check it.

            And last time I checked, poor people did not have any issue with capital gains – BECAUSE THEY HAVE NONE. Capital gains will affect someone like YOU, but not poor people. Make a windfall? Pay up. I see nothing wrong with that.

            When a company is failing, you lay people off.

            You can’t say whether it was failing or not,

            Without noting the companies he stopped from failing,
            and the jobs he made from those firms that would have failed that mushroomed.

            This is how capital works. Have you done stocks? You remove funds from the ones that will fail. If owners throw money at a failing inefficient company, everyone suffers more.

            You don’t get to label that as an emotional flame war, or against those people. Greater good is the concept here. Either have 4,000 inefficient jobs going nowhere, or revise the company to buckle down and have 8,000 later on, while laying of 2000 in the mean time.

            If those jobs were active while the firm was struggling, they would not be able to invest. This is why we call it “investment” type firms, and why it is bain “capital”. It’s about growing capital. If you keep people employed at inflated rates, that is why companies fail.

    So here is the logical side of my brain working today. Why would she go back for round two of the same? End up broke and in debt again? The interviewer stated they were making millions for speaking engagements charging $30,000 per chat.

          Yes FFA, I am really sure the Clinton’s were broke when they left office. They bought the house in Chappequa for $1.7 million, the town house in Georgetown and of course the office & apartment in Harlem. They just live just like the common folks, don’t they? I guess that Presidential retirement just doesn’t go very far anymore. I have seen reports that they have accumulated $111 million since leaving office. Now, she gets the Senate retirement and Secretary of State retirement plus all the speaking engagements, book deal etc. I feel so sorry for the Clintons.

            If she cant manage her finances being one of the 1% ers, how the hell will she properly manage the financial issues of the country?

      FFA – was that the same interview in which she complained they couldn’t keep up with the mortgages on their HOUSES, plural? Remember when Romney was criticized by the left for having more than one home, that he was too rich and elite to be able to relate to the common man? How does someone struggling paycheck to paycheck relate to someone complaining about not being able to keep up with the mortgage on TWO homes?? News flash to Hillary, there are easy solutions to your problem – sell one house and live in the other. Or sell both houses and downsize to a smaller house. But don’t go on TV and whine about mortgages on TWO homes when a lot of people are struggling just to keep up with a mortgage on ONE.

        Yes, that is the one. Not sure if she was complaining or just making a statement of fact. She cited a large amount of legal bills. Guess Bills Interns Sued??.

        Yes, she lives a very lavish life style that few can only hope to achieve. They are what some in this forum despise and still state they would vote for her. Actually looks like she needs some plastic surgery. Was looking old…. And getting heavy too.

          Perhaps I shouldn’t have used the word “complaining” but nevertheless, to someone with one much smaller house and one mortgage, who is living paycheck to paycheck, someone talking about being unable to keep up with the mortgage on TWO BIG houses is going to come across sounding like they are “complaining.” If that was Romney, he’d have been crucified for making those comments. “Rich white guy, can’t relate.” But if it’s Hillary, she gets a pass. Oh well…

            I understand your point. Its all a matter of perception on an individual basis. Your last sentence is dead on accurate no matter which way you slice it. Especially when you have a vacation home in the Caribbean on Megans bay. Everyone bashes Romney for his level of success. Hillary gets the pass.

            I have a hard time understanding why she would go through the White house again especially if she walked away broke and in debt with piles of legal bills. Throw in the fact Billy was doing the interns… Seems to me that was just a bad experience all the way around.

            Hillary does not employ nearly as many people as Romney.

            Also, Romney, does not, steal corporations, and destroy jobs.

            In his absence, firms collapse. I believe the man at Staples was quite happy with the explosion of jobs he had.

            He basically buckles the company down so they can grow. And most of the time that requires pain first, reward later. If it didn’t work, he wouldn’t be a millionaire. He didn’t just take all the money he fired people with. That would create temporary wealth. He made the companies successful.

            You need to stop the Romney Bashing. He’s quite a good CEO who has made many jobs more than he has had to destroy in order to make a company not go belly up. Hillary has made ZERO as part of a corporation.

            There is a distinction between the good kind of businessman, the one who launches and grows firms, creating new products and jobs and opportunities, and the evil, Romney-style businessman, who makes millions by raiding and looting.

            Coming up with an idea, raising funds, building a factory, and beginning to sell products is one, often admirable, way to get rich. Undertaking a leveraged buyout of an existing firm, shutting down a bunch of its plants, reorganizing it, and then flipping the restructured entity to new owners is very different. One creates jobs, one kills them. One is noble, the other squalid. One builds firms, the other loots them.

            And the fact that Hillary does not employ anyone has nothing to do with the price of tea in China.

            You need to get off the Hillary bashing.

            Libby,

            Your vile filth you just said needs to stop.

            He does not raid and loot.

            He comes in to failing companies, restructures (which usually requires lay offs and moves to make the business efficient) and then builds the company.

            You are absurd. Staples was failing. Romney gave this guy the same advice. People lost jobs. Then they grew.

            The only reason you say he raids and loots, is because you are an extreme bigot when it comes to republicans.

            The only reason I say Hillary makes no jobs, is that she doesn’t.

            Making speeches and writing books could at most make a team of maybe 50 support staff. Romney has had a net positive on jobs, with corporations making in the thousands at bare minimum, net positive, after lay offs.

            How about fuck you?

            Romney makes more jobs than he gets rid of. And in the circumstances he restructures companies, they were failing.

            That means no jobs, if he doesn’t restructure.

            Just grow up.

            Libby,

            A well known fact that politifact says is not a fact?

            When making sure a company fails you often have to cut the fat, trim jobs. It was not for the sake of fast profits. It was for turning a company profitable. And as the politifact showed, many of the companies they helped mushroomed later on. This is how those companies work, some fail some mushroom, some you have to cut jobs.

            You focus on just the cutting like a dog. You can’t pay employees when your company fails.

            You use politifact as a source yourself but are unwilling to listen to it why?

          Well, she will be 67 when she runs and she is already very leathery. Perhaps she will call Nancy and schedule a Botox appointment with her doctor. I kind of thought she might make a sabbatical to Switzerland and have some re-construction done by now. It is very strange that not many like her, but the media loves her and some on this forum will still vote for her despite her past and lack of achievements.

            FFA, you may have been a little light on the amount Hillary rakes in for a speech. I saw a report that it is really $200,000 for the typical speech.

            By the way, the reports of the demise of the Tea Party is greatly exaggerated. The TEA Party guy in Virginia handed RINO Eric Cantor his head last night. Before the left says that it is just another rich white guy, Brat is an “Economics” professor at a college and had about 10% of the funds Cantor had to campaign. His message resonated with the voters who are tired of RINO’s doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different result. Cantor was only the “majority” leader in the House. This is sending shock waves through the establishment Republicans and it is time for new blood.

            Actually, she is.

            But she is not guilty of mishandling money. Just because legal bills (or in your case, medical bills) tap all your funds doesn’t mean you’re bad with money.

            Libby, in my case, the legal bills are just starting. This is because Medicaid mishandled my parent application. The attorney picked it apart. The med bills are going to get worse as my wife started coughing blood yesterday. Chest x ray showing nothing wrong with lungs….
            Revenue is up again in the agency. Harder I work, more and more go to other people.
            As far as my debt goes, only Mortgage (primary & equity line for WI property). No Credit Card, no car payments. If I could get half what I paid for the WI Property, I would take it… Of course, WI property is plan B should something happen here. With the spike in biz 2 years running, moving out of IL is no longer an option.

            Bob, the only time Hillary does not lie is when she keeps her mouth shut. By the way, how do you like all that good will she built up all around the world and how other countries love us since she was globe trotting around the world? The Middle East is one huge mess and Iraq is in danger of falling to the extremists and I suppose Obama & Kerry read in the paper they might have a problem over there to deal with.

            Hey Bob, hard to find a reply button between your posts and Libby’s rants. I often wonder what the economy would look like under 6 years of Romney vs what we have had. There is no doubt in my mind that Romney was pro business, would have lowered the marginal rate for business to create some real jobs, reined in the EPA which has killed so many jobs. Instead of a contracting economy that we have now, we would probably be cruising along at 3-5% growth with the incentives he proposed. The left can rant all they want, but Romney was at least a leader and would have done the right thing for the country.

            Agent saying it doesn’t make that a method of saying Eric Cantor is a bad representative.

            Have you even looked into Cantor?

            He’s actually a good rep. You keep saying we need better reps. And people on our side are actually listening to you for some reason.

            It is a known fact that republicans are more likely to split from their chosen rep. Maybe we are more willing to switch reps and call out crap, so much so that even if you don’t like him we won’t like him.

            I will say there are a lot of idiot conservatives right now.

            Eric Cantor and Paul Ryan are some of the best.

            Libby,

            The republicans, did NOT create the economic mess.

            Did you miss my post where Clinton said they contributed by not allowing republicans to regulate fannie mae and freddie mac?

            Do you remember when I posted the CRA ratings of the firms that failed? And how CRA ratings work? And who triggered the ratings for the first time?

            Clinton and Obama finally started suits with CRA regs, triggering them in the late 90’s early 2000’s. This started companies actually fighting for good ratings.

            WAMU grew by over 20 locations, something they could only do by having a high debt to net capital ratio. Laws allow you to have a higher debt to net capital ratio if you have a higher CRA rating.

            I showed you like 15 companies, on their CRA rating in 2007 and why. And nearly every single one, was given a high rating for giving loans to low income borrowers with little to no proof of income documentation. Also, the median loan was higher than the median income could afford, and this was quoted as a positive.

            The republicans did NOT cause this crises.

            Super majority is 60. We did not have a super majority.

            I don’t know, how did we supposedly stop Obama from passing jobs bills, and how did we cause the government shut down as the minority Libby?

            Us having majority doesn’t mean we caused the crises.

            We are going to argue tangible facts, as to what caused the crises.

            Are you going to deny that republicans tried to pass housing regs against fannie and freddie? Does that mean Clinton lied?

            Are you going to deny those CRA regs gave better scores for the reasons I mentioned?

            What do you think would happen if George W said “we need to stop giving loans to poor people”. Would it have worked as a campaign due to how your side markets us as against the poor?

            When Palin said that poor people getting loans was the problem, people said she blamed the poor. She wasn’t even accusing them and it nearly blew up in her face. Do you think she could have revised those laws without the democrats saying republicans were after poor people’s abilities to get homes?

            Are you insane?

            http://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/11/business/new-agency-proposed-to-oversee-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae.html

            What do you think of that?

            The same author later on says Bush tried to get rid of all regulations.

            You can just shut up now, or take the argument as to how this collapse happened. If you say deregulation, what deregulation? The CRA regs were a problem. When you have to give loans to the poor to be allowed to have expansion ability and high debt to capital ratios, that is a problem Libby.

            CRA contributed to the problem, but it was not the only factor leading to the collapse.

            I know you will not agree that it was corporate greed plain and simple that caused it. Wall Street knew exactly what they were doing when they loaned money to people that couldn’t pay it back.

            Not only in mortgages, but in credit cards, loans for luxury items, high-valued vehicles. They made billions and walked away virtually unscathed. I wonder how many of them are Democrats???

            They did know what they were doing.

            And republicans at no point were tied into that.

            At the same time: Were it not for requiring firms to give bad loans to get a higher CRA rating, the corporate greedy people wouldn’t have done it.

            They were greedy mostly on the part that they knew a few things:

            To grow they had to do it.
            That makes it the government’s fault
            The government would make up for their bad debt to net capital ratio.

            I don’t view that as too corrupt actually.

            They thought if they grew enough and then got enough good loans and passed off the bad ones as they did someone else would get hit.

            It’s called survival.

            Who forced them to have the bad loans that they needed to get rid of?

            Who made the moral hazard? Dergulation? My ass.

            It was debt to net capital ratios and cra regs, as well as fannie mae and freddie mac. Each of those democrat impeded, sponsored, and controlled on the wrong side.

            Al Franken wouldn’t even admit he was wrong about there being no issues of financial soundness. Bill O’reilly tore him up.

            Libby, I do have Health Insurance. But every which way I turn, there is a co pay for this that the next thing. Seems everything is at least $50.00 and upwards of $200.
            Seems no one can tell me when the co pays will stop because no one knows. My Prior Insurance was more costly per month. But at least I knew $5000 was the most I would pay out. I am feeling screwed all over again.

            As a side comment:

            It wouldn’t matter how many of them are democrats (though I guarantee you the majority are democrats and not republicans.)

            It would matter which representatives caused it and which laws caused it.

            Credit card debt as a side comment is wholly the fault of the consumer over spending. I’m sorry. You can’t say any regulation would stop consumers from putting too much on a credit card. Credit cards were not the cause of this crises.

            BTY, we have been concentrating on all her flaws since she lied to the American People. She probably only looks that bad because Obama threw her under the bus and it ran her over. All her intelligence you say she has could not get her off that hook.

            Good for you Planet on Cantor. He lost touch with his constituents and didn’t take Brat seriously since polling showed him up by 20 points. When a Congressman or Senator is focused on DC rather than the folks back home, eventually he will lose. The next one up is Thad Cochran in Mississippi in a runoff. He has been up there forever contributing to the C02 problem. By the way, is that lady in Iowa who grew up castrating pigs on the farm and promising to cut pork in DC doing well? I think she would be a good replacement and represent Iowa well.

            I am opposed to blindly defunding the EPA, they do some great things for the air we breathe, the water we drink, and refuge lands. But, we can have a conversation about certain regulations that can be terminated and thereby, defunded. Blindly pulling money from any program is a step in the wrong direction. We should have a discussion. You know, be democractic about it?

            Bob, compared to Maxine Waters, Sheila Jackson Lee, Nancy Pelosi and many others on the left, Eric Cantor and Paul Ryan look like saints. However, Cantor’s mistake was to forget his constituents and focus on DC and got a bit arrogant and in love with the big PACs and lobbyists. He also became a RINO and was willing to reach across that aisle and go over to the other side. That is what is wrong with DC, power politics and forgetting the people. It kinds of reminds me of the series – House of Cards with Kevin Spacey. I think that show is pretty close to what reality is in Washington, DC.

            He went full on assault at the proposed new 1.8 trillion of spending and or taxes.

Being a Progressive at all should give voters pause since Progressives have been screwing this country over for the past quarter century. I include RINO’s who have Progressive tendencies as well.

            Hey FFA, How about another news zinger to end the week? In today’s Washington Times and I am sure will be on other real news outlets, it seems that the IRS cannot locate all those incriminating emails Lois Lerner was sending and receiving after they pledged to cooperate for the past year? Of course, she is currently in Contempt of Congress for taking the 5th. I don’t know why they don’t just throw her in jail and put her in with some rough Lezzies and perhaps she might talk after a few days. This administration is the nastiest in the history of the country and they will do anything to protect themselves from the truth coming out about their nefarious criminal operation. My guess is the hard drive may be at the bottom of the Potomac or was incinerated in the IRS boiler room.

Do they have $15 per hour minimum wage up there yet? That is going to cause trouble with a lot of restaurants in certain states. Seattle has already passed it and are starting to see the bad effects of it. I guess they want to shut some businesses down.

            Planet, we can have a discussion if you admit that we have a Constitutional Republic, not a Democracy. Most Democrats seem to think we have a Democracy which is the messiest and most unwieldly form of government. That is why our founding fathers set up three separate branches of government to serve as checks and balances for one that might get out of control like the current Executive Branch. We have a President who likes to govern now by the phone and pen, change laws, chose which ones he wants to enforce and ignore others. The legislative branch and Judicial Branch have not done a good job of checking his powers and that is why he thinks he can continue to do his thing. The EPA is the nastiest of all agencies and all the leadership should be gone, just like the VA. They should be reeled in and only do what they were set up to do.

            So Planet, are you talking about that 500,000 acres of land in New Mexico right on the border of Mexico that the President declared a refuge? It seems to be a refuge for illegals and the Cartel. I think we have plenty of National Monuments, refuges already. How about using some common sense and turning the Oil & Gas Industry loose and develop our own resources. With what is going on in the Middle East right now, we will need our own resources sooner than you think.

            Bob, I need an opinion. Since Libby and others think Hillary is the smartest woman in the world and she was just wonderful as Secretary of State, do you think Obama should ask her to go with Kerry over to Masol & Tikrit to negotiate a peace with the insurgents about to overrun Iraq? I am sure these guys will welcome their presence over there, right?

    Libby, on an unrelated note, caught a Tribute Band called Kasmier last week. If your a Led Zep fan, its a must see.

        I do remember you saying that when we went through the Brush With Fame chat. Thats why I directed that at you. We seem to have the same taste in music. I had J Geils blasting (Must have got lost) this AM. My new gal – 30 yrs old – asked me “Who is That?” I was stunned… none the less, Foreigner coming in soon. Next on my list of aging rockers I am going to see. Sad to say I am going to miss George as I will be out of town when he comes through. Waiting on the BoDeans to come through again. Maybe Summerfest in MIL…

          Why can’t we get just ONE MORE TOUR with Pink Floyd? Can’t Gilmour and Waters suck it up for one final run? Do you know how much money they’d make? As it goes, I guess I’d rather see Roger live than David. Roger’s last tour was a spectacle!

            Cap – YEP…. There is a Floyd Tribute band around Chicago & Burbs that would be a must see for Floyd Fans… Cant think of the name right now, but will get it for you. They get out to Dekalb so not that far of a drive for you. Hang out with a bunch of college kids.. Remember the days when life was much simpler.

            BTW, I dont think they need any more money. I would bet that they are in the 1% group of the 1%% ers.

      Hi FAA,

      Kasmier is fantastic! They are playing Burger Fest in Roscoe Village on the 12th of July and I will be there!

        This was my first time seeing them. Well worth the ticket price…

          FFA, I hate to break into the reverie of the entertainment world, but had something to share on Hillary’s book deal. Simon & Shuster paid her a $14 million advance. The media made a big splash for her promoting the book. So far, she has sold 60,000 out of a printing of 1 million books and the publisher has said it was disappointing. I think they may take a bath on that investment and stores will have to reduce it to paperback cost and it still probably will not sell. The article I read said they will be lucky to sell 150,000 copies including Libby. Libby, if you haven’t bought it yet, give it a month and you can get a reduced price.

    This has nothing to do with healthcare, but I laughed until I cried watching it. It’s hilarious!!!
