  2. dave,

    it’s true,
    the giant bill was shoved through in a highly suspect manner with bipartisan opposition after a giant struggle.
    now comes the hard and ugly part,
    the implementation.

    here’s a behind the scenes view of what’s really going on.
    everyone was wondering how doctor’s would be kept on board.
    As I predicted, the “doctor fix” bill was put in temporarily which effectively puts the Healthcare bill in the red. So much for saving us money.

    next, doctors who dare to question the governmental price controls are being singled out by Eric Holder and the Justice Department for charges of conspiracy! This is happening in Idaho with a group of orthopedists. What used to be handled by the Fed. Trade Commission suddenly becomes a criminal matter. hummmmmmmmm.

    next, the private insurers, Health and Human Services secretary Sebilieus is busy running roughshod over the new powers to implement “state run” insurance exchanges. She’s dictating terms to private insurances. This was supposed to be done under state run insurance plans, not private plans. Not with Big Sister in charge. hummmmmmm.

    next, states challenging the constitutionality of mandating healthcare on individuals. This administration which once stated loudly that they had the RIGHT to dictate healthcare coverage is now hiding behind the idea that this healthcare insurance mandate is a type of “tax”.
    hummmmmmmmm. Guess the government lawyers finally read the consitution’s 10th Amendment.

    There’s alot more and it won’t be reported by ABC, CBS, NYTIMES et al.
    Sad times for the Republic.

  3. “ENY, are you originally from the Islands? Do you have voodoo in your cultural background, because I think you put a CURSE on me.”

    I’m from Brooklyn. But my family on both sides is from the Caribbean. And I do believe in curses, in a way. I can’t PUT a curse on anyone though. But I definitely believe there are people who can do it. A couple of my ex-girlfriends come to mind.

  4. HOLD THE PHONE! you can buy over the counter medication with your health flex card? i have about 1500 dollars left on mine that has to be used before August 1st. On August 1st it gets reset and goes back to 2000 that our employer puts in our account, but the 1500 wont roll over.

    i actually completely forgot about this.. i only have a week left to spend 1500 dollars! should i try to schedule a bunch of shrink appointments just for shi+s and giggles to mess with them!? does anyone wanna go on a duane reade shopping spree with me!?
