I posted earlier a comment about seatbelts; they are required in Maryland. The brief description of the accident wherein the children were injured seems to indicate that they became projectiles and incurred most of their injuries because of that fact. Now that the family has chosen to become public figures, I think the public deserves to know if we had to pay for their injuries because of their mother’s negligence.

My husband and I together make over 130k a year, but here where we live (PA) my daughter is eligible to have medicare and durable medical equipment paid for (she is only deaf). We have thus far not taken advantage of the program, although I’ve been urged to (by a pediatrician).

The Frost family choose to allow their son to give the democrat radio response to the president's veto. They choose to put their family story, picture of their home, and income information in the papers for all to see. Now that I look into the facts of that same story I'm accused of "invading their privacy" or "attacking a 12 year old boy". Could someone from Daily Kos, Think Progress, or Democratic Underground please cut and paste the part of my article that attacked the 12 year old boy?

The Dems don't want to have debates or discussions...they want to issue ultimatums. This is no different than rolling out injured vets to criticize the war.

Didn't read your posts, have no background information...but the RATS and the boy's parents decided to insert him into the debate; he's fair game.

Shame on them for politically pimping a 12 year old boy. Every time I see a Kennedy-Blank bill (insert RINO Senator of choice) or hear W talk about his good friends the RATS, I think about stunts like this.

Your defense was as well reasoned as your original statements. Once again, the only resort will be ad hominem attacks on you, rather than a cogent refutation of what will not be refuted.

I salute you.

I think we need to add seven counts of Income Tax evasion. Each, for mom and dad.

Now, that is interesting! The Frost’s may have opened a can of worms they wish they hadn’t!

Right, so the question becomes, “How does this guy afford his mortgage, car payments (if any), plus almost $40,000 in annual private school tuition on a combined $90K ish.

Congratulations and Bravo Zulu!

Your action again proves that liberals can no longer on a large scale and get by with it, even with misrepresention like this poor little 12 year old.

As Rush, Sean, Mark and local conservative talk radio show hosts continue to expose the lies, the internet conservative site go even deeper re the lies.

"3) They bought their “lavish house” sixteen years ago for $55,000 at a time when the neighborhood was less than safe." Your information is incorrect (and again fails to provide a link). "They" did not buy the house 16 years ago, Mr. Frost bought the home on his own on 11/30/1990. The couple was married in 1992, and it appears his wife paid him $52,500 to be added to the deed on 09/06/2005. Interesting that on the Department of Assessments and Taxation form under "Principal Residence:" it states "NO". Do they own a second home in addition to the commercial property? Also, please cut and paste from my article where I said they lived in a "Lavish house". Large house-yes, and nice kitchen from the photo.

Regardless of hwo bad the neighborhood was, that was the median price for a home in Baltimore around 1990:

In Baltimore, median household incomes rose from $24,045 in 1990 to $36,031 in 2006 in the Baltimore City-Towson area. But median home prices in that same area went from $54,700 to $126,400, according to census data.

.
Driving too fast for road conditions at minimum, the accident report should clear up some questions, but being there’s Democrats involved...

Amazing how upset the left gets when someone pokes gaping holes in their stories by exposing a few facts.

Thank you for starting this. The liberals want to make all children dependents of the state by providing taxpayer money for what their parents can already afford to provide.

To me the entire line of the Dems’ argument is bogus. Fact is the Frosts qualified for benefits under the existing program and would qualify under the President’s proposed extension of the program. They underscore why the President’s approach is the right one.

Thanks once again for demonstrating left wing supporters must use irrational emotional slanders against other Americans to fill in the lack of factual debate.

Uh, yer welcome, I guess. I was only funnin' ya'll, as Hillary would say, "ya know", but I appreciate being the catalyst for a rant against the lefties.

Great Rant.

Well, I'd like to drop out of Lurk & Link Mode to thank you.

I've cited your stuff in the things I maintain and send to others.

An honest and open debate is what is needed, and using children to attempt to perform an end run around these is shameful.

As a disabled person, I am FORCED to be on medicare because the way the rules are written, my private disability insurance insists on it.

Medicare pays faster than private does. Perhaps I am being cynical, but that may be motivation. But you may find yourself in a situation where private won’t pay for something that is needed that Medicare will.

That being said, I truly resented going on Medicare as primary when I had paid with blood sweet and tears for Private.

What a racket!
