"It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something."
-- Franklin Delano Roosevelt

What a bargain they got we waged a war for them.

Despite receiving $170 billion in federal aid and recording massive losses, American International Group is going ahead with giving millions of dollars in bonuses this week to senior officers because otherwise, said chairman Edward Liddy, "We cannot retain the best and brightest talent to lead" the company. We are rendered speechless.

It only makes them seem (crazy) if they use their kids like stage props and promote abstinance only education and family values.

I still wonder if Sarah Palin faked that one pregnancy to cover for her daughter, ya know the one were she flew accross the country after her water broke, knowing all along she was in a high risk pregnancy. We never did see the birth certificate on that one.

That hits the nail on the head. If her "perfect" family hadnt been used as stage props and had Baracuda palin not trumped family values and abstinance only education I realy dont think anyone would care about her daughter

Well for the record if I were a republican and voted such for the the anti abortion reasone I would be furiouse with the republicans. I suspect it is their bread and butter wedge issue, after all with 8 years of republican dominance in all branches of government Roe vs Wade is still on the books. How else can you explain this except that is they only wish to make it illegal durring campaign seasone and then "poof" the issue is gone never to be mentioned again.

37? I thought you were............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ much younger than that

I just think its funny because Sarah Palin the VP candidate ran on an abstinance only and "traditional family values" platform.

It's unclear if any of this is related to Levi Johnston's mother's arrest on drug charges, but what's done is done: Bristol Palin and fiance Levin Johnston are splitsville.

All signs, and statements by the couple, pointed to a wedding. After all, Bristol Palin was pregnant with Levi Johnston's baby. But the fact that the two were not married prior to the baby's birth was a definite red flag.

A source told People:


"It kind of just happened. I thought they would stick it out. But I think they can work together to raise Tripp."
If I can be somewhat snarky, I could say: what about family values? Based on that shouldn't they be together, for the sake of Tripp? End of snarkiness.

Interestingly, though this didn't become public until today, according to another source, this breakup is common knowledge around Wasilla.

Its pretty apparent to me that when our nurses cant afford insurance for themselves or children something is wrong with the system big time. One can assume the management has red carpet insurance for life. I see many many people that would benefit from a "single payer" government run program. Who will pay for it you ask? Think along the lines of " I pay x ammount now for insurance and co-pays and my company also pays x amount. We also pay into medicaid. If these funds are re applied to a single payer plan I am sure it will increase our costs verry little and in the long run drive down the cost of medical care and all will be able to see a Dr. when needed. The fact that america has the most expensive health care in the world are not in dispute by anyone. America also ranks near the bottem in care for the western democracies. We are being scammed on a massive scale and our health is held hostage to insurance companeis that only care for the bottom line.

If you do not have insurance what about your child? I am just curiouse.

That is a unique perspective from were I am standing in the middle class or what is left of it, I see the insurance companies useing human life as a bargaining chip ,pay more or die its your choice.

Who said anything about voteing for money? The wall st fat cats are the ones who write their own checks. All I am asking for is a medical field that doesnt bankrupt the economy.

lets face it eh, republicans are the money class and investing class. They trick average folks to vote for them with wedge issues like abortion or raceism and religion things like that. How else can so many americans vote against their own self interest and vote for them? We have been victims of a 30 year propoganda campaign that claimed government was the problemb and not the solution and we bought into it and now that things are so messed up the government has to bail out the free enterprise system. We have over 40 million americans with no insurance at all and a million more are added each year. The time for debate is over our system has failed misserably.

I think the federal reseve is run by fat cat republicans.

They are putting plenty of money in the politicians pockets that is why we have such a crappy health care system
