Prayers up, indeed, and I can identify as well. Had a bone cyst and broke my femur twice before I was 14.

The first time was only hairline fracture, so 2 months in body cast only.

The second time (three years later) was a complete break ... 5 weeks in hospital with pin thru knee, then another 7 weeks in body cast. Then re-learning to walk again.

Tutor came to house so I could keep up with my studies. Really awful going to bathroom. Had to use bedpan the whole time. Embarrassing.

What about banning people who have Medicaid from eating fast food?

And no food stamps except for foods in the lean protein, high fiber, healthy fats, etc. categories.

Is that too drastic?

Because I’m telling you, it’s a vicious cycle.

If your job doesn’t provide decent health insurance and you aren’t buying decent insurance yourself, i.e., Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, etc., you ultimately, at some point, will be using taxpayer $$$$ to cover the medical bills which result from an anti-nutritious diet.

Why should taxpayers be stuck paying for self-inflicted heart disease, diabetes, etc.?

If a few dozen people were on Medicaid it wouldn’t be a big deal, but there’s 58 million people who rely on it — for life.

Hell, even NPR published a study recently which essentially said that “disability” is the new welfare.

There’s too many people in the cart and not enough people pushing the cart.

The menu is healthy. It’s written on a paper napkin. Probably no more than 15 calories. :-)

It’s not up to me, of course, and I’m not one to judge, but I often wonder if Obama is on track to become the first US President to go to hell.

So-called Progressives should be called Oppressives cuz that’s what they are. Ironically, they are the one’s stuck in the past. Accuse others of what you’re doing. Blah, blah, blah....

Hixson said only two of the seven people in the van were wearing seatbelts.

Defense Attorney: "So as you can clearly see, the problem here is not that my client was drunk or texting, but rather the deceased failed to wear safety belts."

LOL

All da folks are wee-wee’d up.

What a nice Easter Sunday story. :-) Read the comments at the site. They are a hoot.

"Nom, nom, nom, nom."

The obedient media.

Love it >>>> :O)

Eggs are good protein. I can never eat too many eggs, IMO.

Does anybody know how to log out of YouTube? I logged in and can’t seem to log out. Thanks.

"Reckon, I'd hit that like an 11 in BJ (blackjack)."

Not bad for 47 years old. :O)

"beautiful, sophisticated ladies" to seduce businessmen in hopes of "extracting key pieces of information."

Here's a few:

Refresh the AXS web page at 9pm and there should be a live link on the site then.

It starts at 9pm est tonite.

How much you wanna bet the leftwing candidate got 100% of the vote in some precincts. Just like O here in the states last Nov.

Democrats say the best days have not happened yet.

I guess to the Democrats "best days" is code for $100 per loaf bread and fighting in the streets.

The good news with Carter is that he only got one term.

Mod's can remove from 'breaking news' if appropriate.

The reason I thought the 'breaking' tag is warranted is because I think this (among other things) demonstrates the beginning of big dominoes about to fall, thanks to the narcissist-in-chief getting the second, of who knows how many, terms.

An earnings report tomorrow may show that fiscal first- quarter net income slipped 2 percent to $12.8 billion, or $13.48 a share, according to analysts’ estimates compiled by Bloomberg. That would be the first drop since 2003.

"Now my kids have police in front of their school. I mean you wonder how far it’s going to go," one mother from Larchmont said.

Sasha and Malia get that kind of protection every day. Stop complaining, beeeyotch.

And so it begins...

True or not true, that is the question.

According to the timestamp, the article is about an hour and a half old.

"Someone had a gun and shot the bad guy.”

About 60 shots were fired, an employee at Victoria's Secret told Fox News.

I guess that is why there were reports of two shooters. Someone had a gun and shot the bad guy.

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. Good job translating the MSM pap for us.

60 shots fired sez witness.

2 confirmed dead.

What NFL team does he play for? /sarc

Several years ago, I got a check for over a thousand dollars because the agency I worked for had not paid overtime that it allowed but did not require.

That's different because it's not taxpayer dollars.

Actual quote from the blog:

“I had income, but it wasn’t enough without working.”

Eh, that’s the reason most people under 65 work.

The woman is on SSD and she was overpaid taxpayer $$$. That’s something to rejoice about?

How could both Gallup and Rasmussen be wrong, but CBSNYT was correct?

I’m surprised, these days, that a Democratic Presidential candidate would have a concession speech prepared before a issuing a recount declaration.

Prescient observation.

This is a reminder to not put too much stock into exit polls.

There’s that 47% again!

LOL

Start here. I’m good at sifting thru archives. If I find more I’ll post them to you.

Do you remember if the posts were on a live thread or if the comments were on a thread containing an actual article and, if so, do you remember the source of the article being commented on, i.e., Commentary, Washington Times, NY Post, etc.?

Intrade is a racket, IMO. This election is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for big money (a lot corrupt, I would imagine) to be made.

my calc, in '08, 24.8% of registered voters in Obama's OH counties voted early, 19.1% in McCain. Today, 21.7% Obama and 21.3% McCain

Why is McCain mentioned TWICE above? Shouldn't the second McCain really say Romney?

Can someone tell me what I'm missing in the graphic below? It looks like Indy's are breaking for Obama by a point.

He’s mistakenly referred to “President Clinton” instead of “President Obama.”

So Biden meant to say Obama bankrupted Chrysler? That wouldn't make them look very good. Or Biden meant to say Gov. Romney bankrupted Chrysler?

This calls for...
