Senate Republicans blocked advancement of the repeal of "don't ask don't tell" today, further reenforcing the suck factor these guys bring to everything they touch, and their policy of obstruction at any cost.

More than 75 percent of Americans believe gays should be allowed to serve openly in the military, a support rate higher than at any other time since the policy took effect in 1993, according to the most recent ABC News/Washington Post poll.
A majority doesn't want healthcare either.
The majority don't want healthcare?
HAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!
It's truly amazing that the main parts of the healthcare law needed to have gov regulation in the first place. You could pay in for years and get dropped when you're sick, or capped when your disease cost too much, or have your child dropped for being born with a "preexisting" condition, etc...and we just accept it. Instead of blaming the insurance corps, it's the gov's fault for stepping in. I love this move to drop child policies by some of the big insuranceholes...shows where they are coming from, and that place is called HELL...fuckin' evil Imps.
Single payer makes the most sense to me but it would even things out a little more and not draw a profit on top of the profit made by the care providers and that would be downright un-American! I mean raise your glass, and your rates, to the insurcorps but be sure to blame BamBam and take a big gulp! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Hook, what parts of the law do you see as common fucking sense? Or are you a slave to the free-to get fucked-market...
As far as the mandate goes, the funniest argument I heard was from the aptly named Dick-Tea Moneybags-Army. The gist was that Christian Scientists never go to doctors and how could they be "forced" to get insurance.
Buuuuuuuut...I would think that when anyone gets mowed down by a car they go to doctor shop right quick.
Or do the paramedics psychically know what religion an unconscious slab of bleeding meat is?
is this topic about healthcare, Hookbender? Or are you just a consummate tea partier, and willing to forgo everything you believe in to punish the Dems for healthcare?
Do you think we should repeal Medicare? And why or why not? And, why or why is it more or less problematic than the healthcare bill?
I'm open to change my solutions to fix the problem with healthcare.Just not now.
It's an aggressive, open minded attitude if it were some other time.
It's taking new information and adjusting so we don't have to pay for sick kids.
It's a flexible way of thinking,one day I'm for it and the next I'm not.
However, it's much easier to think like I do from the position I'm in since I have healthcare, as opposed to those who are suffering.
It's not about being negative or positive. (Although I look at it as a positive) It's really a honest attitude to go against anything anybody here says on any subject. Even if it's something I was for yesterday.
It isn't liberal or conservative. It isn't democrat or republican. It's strictly based on not wanting to be in a foxhole with a fag. It really isn't wrong or right either, for that matter it just scares me.
It's adjusting your efforts to produce results when what your doing either isn't working, or is working, but just enough to say....it's working. Not working working...a different kind of working. A little more not working...just enough to not work. But I could say it's working just enough.It's adjusting space and time to conform to reality and it's just enough to work. See how that works?
"In that cold dark foxhole...I fear I might kiss him..."
And what if it was real cold and we had to use body heat to survive and the guy got a boner.
Or worse yet....he was a heshe and I got a boner.
.....I said hey babe...take a trip on the wild side.

If the law is changed at least the soldiers can then ask and flush out those suspected queers in their ranks so as not to share a foxhole.
