No thanks to government health care plantation

Democrats will take things in the opposite direction. Rather than controlling costs and access through more competition and consumer control, they see it coming from more government and regulation. Mandates on employers to provide insurance, fines if they don't, and using those funds to finance a new subsidized government plan.

And central to cost control are government bureaucrats defining what procedures may be used and determining what physicians will be compensated.

That was a really effective rebuttal to Mr. Garvin's post. It appears you will defend President Obama regardless as to whether his policies might be harmful to us in the long run.

What did I say in my post to defend President Obama?

Sometimes I think I'm talking with bloggers' children. I'm just counting drinks; just counting drinks.

I guess everyone doesn't enjoy hand-to-hand combat??? You know I do.

Try treating Fred like I do Main. I tried to provoke her for months by calling her Yellow Stream. The best she could give back was calling me "MeanOldTurdling" or something. I immediately ceased calling her that. I was embarrassed for her and afraid someone might know who she really is. Now, I just call her Main and feel pity.....

Oh, I ain't saying Fred needs pity. Just a suggestion....

I don't respond to Hack/Kevin/diva (or whatever the flavor of the month is) because I have decided not to waste my words or my time on miserable little bedwetting pissants who have nothing better to do than count the number of blogs that I post.

Diva wondered out loud why conservatives don't have backbones. I just reminded him that I have one. Wasn't speaking for anyone else...

Plus, I already told diva I thought it was kinda creepy to count your blogs and to lay off. He chose to do otherwise.

You'll have to excuse diva. He's just a miserable LITTLE pissant, bedwetting, liberal that doesn't have the guts to debate an issue intelligently.

Were you lying to us all when you said, "At least I have the courage to blog using my real name?" And, you being a miserable BIG pissant, why have we never ever met you? Heck, you are brave enough to "blog using my real name?" What gives? Scared of little pissants named Kevin? Mainstreams? Sniffles? Jeff C's? Your own shadow?
