Now that would have been funny. I don't care who you are. Git 'er done! Wed, 15 Jun 2011 13:09:09 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/bhealy/2011/06/15/news-intern-harassed-while-taping-public-protest-graphic-language/#IDComment162857006 http://biggovernment.com/bewing/2011/02/17/saving-lives-cancer-patients-unite-sue-federal-government/#IDComment128664822 I am not trying to impune anyone's character. My point is simply that this is another example of too many people not wanting to provide a free gift, but instead expecting something in return...which makes it a paid service. As for the three times a week, that was a one time thing. When one gives whole blood, one cannot give again for about 56 days (to the best of my memory without looking it up). When one does apheresis, the standard is a wait time of 14 days (was when I was able to donate) - time for the body to regenerate the platelets. In my case, my blood antigens were an exact match - like an exact match for a marrow transplant. Therefore, under that specific case, one can give every 48 hours. It was the only time I was exactly matched and was donating for a specific person. Yes. I was fortunate that my work schedule was flexible enough at the time to be able to routinely donate once every 2 - 3 weeks. I just had to make the time up, generally through skipping a few lunches...not really a big deal. The kids were in school so no child care expenses were involved. Thanks for the comment!

Again, people are taking the "what's in it for ME" approach instead of "how can I help someone else". I have been on the donor list for almost 30 years and if I match, I would gladly give. The thought of holding my matching bone marrow hostage for money has never ever crossed my mind until reading this. Frankly, I am disappointed in those that agree with the premise that "I will give if I get paid". For many years, I did apheresis donations (where the blood goes through a dialysis machine and pulls out the components) and it always made me feel very warm and fuzzy knowing I was helping primarily cancer patients. I gave three times in a week to help a 14 year old female leukemia patient. A few weeks later, I found out she passed away and it saddened me. At least I had the opportunity to assist in the slight chance that she could have been saved. I would gladly do it again! Some things are just more important than money!

Right now, I believe voter fraud in favor of the Democrats will be a major issue. How many Al Franken's need to be elected before this situation is dealt with? He was elected via fraud and look what that ONE VOTE did to this country!!!!!!!

It would not surprise me if there was some kinda national emergency in the next few weeks, either. Remember the mantra for this administration is don't let a serious crisis go to waste....even if we have to make the crisis happen ourselves. I have been predicting for months that the GOP WILL NOT win control of either the US House or the US Senate due to fraud. I hope I am wronger than a 3 dollar bill on this!

Part of our greatness is that we don't have armed citizenry in the streets. In Judges 21:25b it says "everyone did what was right in his own eyes" (NASB) and we have not gotten to that point. Let the AMERICAN PEOPLE'S voices be heard starting in November that WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH! Everyone should remember that changes at the federal level are just the tip of the iceberg. We need changes at the local and state levels and changes in judges across the board. I LOVE OUR COUNTRY, OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR FLAG, OUR GOD, OUR TROOPS.
