Fluke was asking for insurance providers to cover FREE contraception. You and I pay for those "freebies" in the cost of our premiums.

There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. TANSTAAFL!!!

No, Fascism is definitely the government STRICTLY controlling corporations. Sorry-- I didn't make up the rules for defining economic systems, and you don't get to, either.

BTW, who "counts" your votes is up to YOUR county. We use old-fashioned page scanners, late- '50s technology the old multiple-choice tests were based upon, too stupid to "rig", and with both a computer count of votes AND a hard copy of the ballot. Diebold doesn't make those.

He is correct. The only difference between Fascists and Communists is that Fascists allow private business to operate under STRICT government control. Sound familiar? The totalitarian part is a result of the rules put in place to support the basic idiology. It adds up to the same result.

If she had SAID, "What saith the White House?" you would probably be attacking her as a fundamentalist religion freak for using Old English.

"What says the White House?" is OK. Not great, but this is a conversational board, not a dissertation.

BTW, HiredMind is right... if you're going to correct someone's Old English spelling/grammar, at least SPELL it right. "Saith". Otherwise, don't make an anal idiot of yourself.

Don't give up yet. You're talking about mere moderates... I know dedicated DEMOCRATS who will vote for a turnip before they'll vote for Obama again. Stop biting your nails... barring outright vote fraud, things will turn out. :)

Ah. Excellent. :)

This was a skit, more or less, for a political meeting. It was the LEFT who pulled it up out of obivion and made a hit of it. :)

re: " It's nonsense like this that helped get Chairman O elected..."

Which is exactly why they do it. As long as they keep repeating the same old, same old over and over and over, there are people out there who believe them. Have you ever noticed how few Black people know that the Civil Right Act and the Voting Rights Act were both Republican bills?

re: "You want to punish Pelosi, help who ever is running against her next year win, and quit wasting your time wringing your hands over the Church."

Talk about a waste of time... Pelosi's district is San Francisco, the nuttiest district in the nuttiest state in the Union. NO successful politician from there is going to be somehow "better" than Queen Kook.

Besides, we need to keep her around for a while, as a good example of a bad example. ;)

So we have taxation without representation yet again, considering the "leadership" in the one house of Congress where we have a majority.
