He promises all the things he will require and mandate and demand, just as pols have been doing since people were dropping beans in boxes. What is missing is how he is going to pay for it all, get every hospital, pharmacy, doctor, and every other health care provider, from PT clinics to the folks that sell HoverScooters at NO COST TO YOU!!! on board and cooperating, oversee and regulate it all, etc. And that only covers a fraction of the sum total of all his promises, with no _real_ explanations. so...there should be no ideas, no blueprints, and no effort, eh? well, i agree mccain's the man for that. i think obama's at least started the process in a substantive way. what has mccain done? i'll take the guy with ideas and blueprints, and hope he can get some of it done, instead of settling for the same **** wrapped in an old man's skin. i do believe there are some of the larger issues - health care, education, middle class tax relief, energy independence, rebuilding foreign relations and diplomacy - that he will focus on and make real progress with. by the way...where have all the iraq $$billions we've spent come from?? jeff RDean will get you a new mansion, free of charge. Here's the plan and a blueprint: Plan: Go into Home Depot and take all the money. If anyone tries to stop you, explain that it is part of the plan for change. Then go over to Lowe's and buy all the materials you need. Blueprint: Nail boards together, making sure plumbing, electrical, and other systems are done properly. Roof house. Insulate house. Install doors and windows. Finish out as desired. Move in. There ya go. With those detailed instructions, you ought to be moved in by tomorrow, no problem. If you run into problems or unforeseen circumstances, see plan and blueprint because they cover everything. You're welcome. Please send me a campaign contribution. HTH, R ....and for a modest sum, I'll even rent you a hammer... |

I have always wondered, in the talk about X people not having health care, health insurance, etc, etc., why I should be made to pay for someone else's health care or drugs. I don't have to pay for their food, or their homes, or their cell phone bills, or their iPods, or their $150 sneakers. Why their health care? And, as long as I am ranting, why should I be upset about someone who claims to be smart enough to make $6000 a month being stupid enough to sign a mortgage that could grow to $3000 a month? Why do you hate America so much? HTH, R cheers oz, who made (mostly) good choices |

Sheeese, I go away fishing an the Rapid for a few days, come home and find out that you AND the boy lawyer have sipped all the kool aide. Obama has but words, words he's been practicing for more than two years. He has no experience, and his own veep says he is not ready to lead the nation. McCain has the leadership and the executive experience to lead. Hell, any senior nco in the military has more leadership abilities than Obama, and most also have more executive experience than him. Remember, it is Obama and Biden, not the other way around. OTT, fishing was great. See my tr and hug the dog for me. Dave |
