I'd expect that these evil healthcare companies would be afraid of the federal government suppling healthcare to everyone, but I've heard that some of the executives for companies like UnitedHealth are quite liberal. Almost half their political contributations (45%) were to Democrats (http://opensecrets.org/industries/contrib.asp?Ind=H&cycle=2006). Could their be any insiders planning on making money if the government takes control of healthcare? Or would this mega healthcare bureaucracy be the one giant federal bureaucracy with no corruption?

Remember these are people that would shun you if you ever leave their faith... Do not believe in blood transfusions to save your life.... implore parents to miss the funerals of their children if they leave the faith and subsequently die....


Should we be allowing Religious doctrinal Lemmings in our logical, real world lives that we live?????

Just quoting what somebody said about Obama.
===============
"The property of this country is absolutely concentred in a very few hands, having revenues of from half a million of guineas a year downwards... I am conscious that an equal division of property is impracticable. But the consequences of this enormous inequality producing so much misery to the bulk of mankind, legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property, only taking care to let their subdivisions go hand in hand with the natural affections of the human mind. Another means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they rise. Whenever there is in any country, uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right. The earth is given as a common stock for man to labor and live on."

Is it legal for police officers to insult you? Like if I haven't done anything wrong, but they thought something I did was stupid, is it legal for them to call me an idiot? If it is legal, do you think it's something that would be frowned upon by his superior? Should I report him for being unprofessional and an all around douche bag?

These headlines are copy and pasted from the Fox homepage

*Buffy the Porn Star?
*Cheerleading Coach Fired Over Topless Photos | VIDEO
*Breasts: New weapons in terror war
*Saudi cleric: How to beat your wife

This is ignoring the fact that they also have plastered a bunch of models next to each of their headlines. I wouldn't want my kids reading some of this stuff. Do conservatives really believe that this is conservative journalism?

Why would we want somebody who supported the war or claimed to have been duped to lead America? If you couldn't see that we were being terribly misled into a war that took our eyes off of Osama bin Laden (the man responsible for the deaths on 9/11), then isn't that horrible judgment!?

My daughters father is a lawyer and he doesn't want anything to do with our daughter. He just changed, told me he doesn't want to be a father, ever!
Anyway, so now i'm on my own raising my daughter and i love it! However, it's a little hard finacially, so i asked her father if he could perhaps helf finacially toward her living expenses. He said to me very sternly 'if i was to "extort" any money from him for his daughter he will taker her off me for good, that he will make it that he will have her!!!'
He told me to go away and leave it alone or face a huge fight, he said it was my choice!
He never signed a perternity test, nor will he, he refused. I know i can take him to court and make him have a perternity test, but why should i have to force someone to be a father, i shouldn't have to.
He isn't a nice person, should have realised that when we were together, but he treated me very well, until i got pregnant.
Our daughter is 2 now, she has never known her dad. If i was to pursue..

I'm trying to convince my buddy/roomate to take taxis when we go out drinking. However, he's a cheap dude and would rather drive drunk than pay the $15 cab fare from our house to downtown where the bars are. So, I'm trying to make the argument that it's cheaper to pay the cab fare than get a DUI.

Anybody know what the average DUI costs in Denver? Also, what other costs are there (i.e. attorneys, classes, etc)?

I'm 16,i'll be 17 in june.
I've wanted to be a ranger since I was 8 years old hearing my uncle talk about it,but he has since passed away..
I'm not just trying to jump into this,and i'm not stupid.
I know it's gonna take major commitment,and I know what I'll have to complete to get in.
But i've been lifting and running everyday for almost 2 years now and while I can get the run down in way under the time limit,I can't even DO the 80-100 pushups/situps/pullups,let alone in 2 minutes or better..
I know it's endurance,but what can I do to get to my goal?
I just want to know honestly from either people who know someone who has,or a person that has,gone through the RIP and everything else.
please,any information is fine...
and thanks in advance..

If you were sexually assaulted by a doctor in a hospital during a procedure who's attentions would you send the complaint letter to? There are so many divisions in a hospital, what title should one look for to find the ONE in charge? The one who oversees it all and will not intercept a letter getting to the very top. I need the title of the head, very top, big chief. I'm coming up with a million different departments. What should I be looking for in a title?
