I think you are correct. Simpson’s nasty rants and raves are an early sign of senility

Many people are expecting Obama to move left if he is re-elected to his final term. I’m more concerned that he will move more to the RIGHT! Under his support, Democratic cover has been given to such things as cutting Medicare and Social Security. Obamacare was written by a health insurance lobbyist, and is a massive give-away to the pharmacutical and insurance industries.

Must be nice to wake up in the morning, the only worry on your mind is something like this: “if I fly across the country to ride a horse at one of my other homes, will I be able to get back in time to dress for dinner?”

I’m pretty certain that behind that sweet smile is a truly cold-hearted bi*ch.

At least Obama speaks English. No other difference between the two.

I hope the mandate is overturned. If it is upheld, it leaves the door wide open for other mandates, such as a requirement to use IRA funds to purchase an annuity – a sop to the financial services industry. The connected industries will use their influence to mandate purchases of their products.

One conservative judge has opined that if the mandate is struck down, it might also strike down the right’s attempts to privatize Social Security. Conservative justices on the Supreme Court will likely NOT want to rule in a way that would stop the privitization schemes.

For those unlucky neighborhoods in the rust belt that have big swaths of forclosed homes, there will probably be another solution to also benefit the fat cats. I can forsee allowing the “investors” to claim the remaining homes via eminent domain, bulldoze everything, then create an enterprise zone with taxpayer subsidies.

According to the right wing, amnesty for illegal aliens just encourages more illegal immigration. Why wouldn’t serial tax amnesty for corporations have the same effect?

Every woman who is forced to undergo a state-sponsored rape by transvaginal probe should go into the exam wearing an anti-rape female condom. Doctors might think first before they venture a finger or an instrument into a woman’s private parts.

According to the UCC, goods that can be specifically identified as belonging to a particular customer can’t be included in a bankrupcy proceeding – the customer gets to retrieve his goods prior to the bankrupcy proceedings. In this case, however, the UCC is not being followed, and identified goods (ie gold) are being included in the bankrupcy assets. There is no longer ANY rule of law in the US.

The reason Obama did not mention speculation is because he is beholden to the speculators for campaign contributions. Don’t expect any reform in that direction during this administration.

I guess everyone has to accept some cuts – individuals get a cut in the benefits they have paid for all their working lives, and corporations and the wealthy have to accept yet another tax cut.

The problem with Obama’s plan is that the majority of corporations pay little or no corporate tax now. Companies like GE actually get money back from the taxpayer. With an even lower tax rate, they’ll become even a larger drain on the US treasury.

I would presume that a healthcare provider would be able to refuse to do the procedure due to “conscience.” That is the same provision used by those who do not wish to provide abortions, plan B, and even birth control. What needs to be done, in my opinion, is to publish the names of healthcare providers who consent to perform this invasive procedure – most women would boycott them for other services.

This issue has finally opened the Komen can of worms of how they are attempting to block any investigation of environmental factors as a cause of cancer. I’m a breast cancer survivor. While I was in treatment, I saw how many young women, even in their 20′s, are getting the disease. Many of the heathcare workers I spoke to are convinced that environmental factors are an important cause of increased levels of cancer in the US.
