We shop a lot at Aldi. You have to bag your own, but man are they cheap.
Rush is right about this as well. These people have bought into a false religion. They bow down to their god of the environment. It is scary because they will not or cannot listen to reason or logic.
Miss probably an FBI file or two on him that he plays for the other team and they have the goods on him similar to David Souter.
That is Pansy Graham.
Evidently this link is being blocked.
Here is how I got there:
Go to Gatewaypundit
Look for first things-—Home—
go to Liz Cheneny blasts oba
Go to comments section there are 25 of them.
Check out comment # 7 it has parts I and II of the
The Islamic Infiltration both videso are long but worth while.
I am listening to the Candy Crowley interview of National Security advisor former Commandant of the Marine Corps General James Jones.
Every Marine must be feeling anxiety today that a leader of their Corps has gone so far over to the dark side. It is truly chilling and Very depressing.
For instance Biden continued to use the mythical "300" figure for supposed actual terrorists tried successfully in civilian courts. AND GREGORY HAD NOTHING! Biden accused Cheney of lying (misrepresenting multiple facts) and Gregory made NO effort AT ALL to pin down what facts Cheney had wrong according to Biden. Cheney had VERY CLEARLY divided his criticisms of the Obama admin's prosecution of the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan, which Cheney emphatically supported, with the treatment of terrorists sticking the homeland as criminal defendants, instead of enemy combatants. Instead Gregory allowed Biden to grossly equivocate, to "respond" to Cheney's non criticism of the of the former by citing admin policy only on the former, and not responding to Cheney's actual criticism of the later.
Tim Russert, biased as he obviously was, would never have let ANY of that go by.
Does Gregory even read the news? Does he have no concern for his reputation as a journalist? HIS performance (let alone that of his guest) was AMAZINGLY incompetent and lackadaisical.
But it's exactly what I've seen from Gregory an each of the (increasingly rare) occasions I still tune in to watch MTP. (Finally took it off the TIVO several months ago.)
Hook up a dynamo to Russert's corpse and you could power a city. How can Gregory willfully damage himself so? Is he just incapable of doing better? If I'm a news executive, seeing what a mess he's making of MTP, I'm not giving him any kind of job anywhere.
I’d be interested in a source for that 3.5% as well. Here’s a study that estimates the increase at between 20% and 50%: http://74.125.113.132/search?q=cache:nLM2PTFiL_8J:www.cahi.org/cahi_contents/resources/pdf/HealthInsuranceMandates2009.pdf+mandate+cost+increase+health+insurance&cd=3&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a
Do you have a link to any of these studies? Just wondering, because last I heard MA has 53 (yes fifty-three) mandated benefits. I've also read that in MA health insurance costs 42% above the national average; of course, we also have RomneyCare. I believe MA costs were higher even before that, but went up further as a result, but I don't have numbers.
increase the cost of basic health coverage from a little less
than 20% to perhaps 50%, dependingon the
number of mandates, the benefit design and the cost of
the initial premium.
Totally agree.. the Repubs can’t get their point across...ever.
Gregory and Biden had to have had a prepared script, and it was written by the NBC staff with input from Obama’s crew at the White House. Biden was coached in what to say. At one point he got off script and Gregory corrected him.
It was nauseating.
I LOVE DICK CHENEY!!
DARTH VADER RIDES AGAIN!!
Just listening to him ...what a f...g contrast to the Obozo Admin, just in being able to communicate clear, powerful messages! The intelligence and experience factor is also so startlingly contrasted!
I read an intersting link the other day about Haiti under the Clintons, and the guy they proped up there. It was pretty clear that they used Haiti as a place to test out their Alinski theories.
I would ask for the link, but it sounds like it would make me nauseous.
—Actually, studies show that the mandated coverages only marginally increase premium (around 3.5%) over “cover nothing” insurance. This is true in both low and high premium states.
Don’t know exactly what you mean by ‘cover nothing’ but a three and a half percent nation-wide reduction is still worth implementing.
Also have not heard before that health care cost explosion is a Northeastern problem. Pretty sure that I have understood its not, that’s why the Democrats have had a big bill.
Similarly, malpractice reform may not be a panacea, but is part of the mix.
The way to reduce this problem is approaching it from many different direction for an additive improvement to the current unsatisfactory system.
Ping to 338
Seemed like the guy was loaded with Dem chatting points instead of just good military stuff,not very impressive.
I guess the biggest thing I didn't like was the legitimacy he gave to the Joker who is doing nothing but following the ground work laid by Gen. Petraeus/Pres.Bush and others who custom designed the art of fighting terrorists.
