 To sum it up rather briefly, the House Republicans' idea of "health care reform" will actually leave more people uninsured after 10 years than we have now, will cut the deficit far less than the Democrats' plan will and will do NOTHING about people being denied insurance due to preexisting conditions. There is also no public option and no subsidies at all for those who can't afford to purchase ... |

 I was a big fan of the original eighties series so I'd really looked forward to this premiere. So far I think I'm going to like it. I'm not sure if I saw those other actresses before but they both looked familiar. I've liked the younger priest in several things, including 4400 and a few guest appearances and movie roles.
Did anyone else notice there seems to be a little bit of a political t... |

I'm sorry, X, I wish I'd have found "The Nation" link, I'd have used that, it's my favorite magazine! Isn't it funny! I laughed so hard when I saw it on TV the other night I had tears in my eyes and my cats thought I'd gone nuts.

CBO begins with the baseline estimate that 17 percent of legal, non-elderly residents won't have health-care insurance in 2010. In 2019, after 10 years of the Republican plan, CBO estimates that ...17 percent of legal, non-elderly residents won't have health-care insurance. The Republican alternative will have helped 3 million people secure coverage, which is barely keeping up with population ... |

No, you're not a "selfish old lady" at all, you have every right to want and to EXPECT those things. The bills being discussed and hopefully voted on before the turn of the next century won't take your Medicare away nor will they cover illegal immigrants or pay for abortions out of public funds. I hope you realize that even if we're on the opposite side of this issue I most definitely DON'T wan... |

This amendment had been discussed and defeated before. I have a question; what about those who already have insurance coverage that does cover abortions that they're paying for themselves? Is it right for them to no longer be able to do that? I know many people are opposed to abortion but it's STILL a legal procedure. Let's be honest, no woman would ever plan or expect to one day need an aborti... |

Rollo, I forgot to mention that I REALLY take exception to your comment, "And they wonder why people compare them to Nazis?"
Anyone has the right to agree to disagree with any bill being discussed or voted on. It's to be expected there will sometimes be HUGE disagreements like there is with health care reform. However, when people in high levels of our government make comparisons to Hitler ... |

Trust me, if you're nearly 70 now I think your "marbles" will be just fine! You're clearly as sharp as a tack, Hon, more so than some people I know who are MUCH younger!Annie |
