Were work comp claims actually filed

are you sure of that?

I mean - it wouldn't surprise me, but I hadn't read it anywhere...and if it's true, people really should know.

At least if we don't pass this piece of shit ...

we have the ability not to buy their crappy products.

Odd to say, but our best hope is that Republicans take this thing to court, and we get some non-Clinton-non-Bush judge to rule that it is wrong to force us to buy lemons from car salesmen.

JC- I'm just a spectator. I am wondering how low you will go.

I just checked my independent thought alarm ...

Mark Tokarski — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 01:01:29 GMT

It's not flashing.

I don't want to hurt you ...

I can do that pretty good - I mean, I know how to toss the insults and stuff. But you do seem impermeable, so let me lay it out for you. You don't have even a slight grasp of the complexity of the issue. You have just taken the work of thousands of people who are waaaay smarter than you - and written them off with the words "There are conflicting scientific opinions. That is beneath contempt.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts. You are not even entitled to an opinion.

Since you are impermeable, these words will not register. LOL.

That dog don't hunt ...

It's kind of like, you know, a Democratic talking point for weaselheads. They have stuffed us, given us a very bad bill, and it is not a starting point! Matt! Can I swear some more? We got another moron! Please Matt can I?

"conflicting scientific opinions"

JC — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 00:04:46 GMT

um, no.

Science isn't about opinion ("it's my opinion the sun revolves around the earth" or "the earth is flat"). It's about observable facts.

Conflicting political and ideological opinions about global warming? Yes, very much so.

Hehehe

Don't understand science even a little, do you, Eric?

Oh, and you forgot to include that Al Gore is FAT!

Not Surprised -

Eric Coobs — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 22:26:44 GMT

OK Mark, I'll explain it for you -

The Earth goes through periods of unstoppable global warming and cooling cycles.

The last Ice age came, and went, and it wasn't caused by your car, or Al Gores' jet.

Can man affect this cycle?

There are conflicting scientific opinions.

Did Al Gore turn it into a religion for the left? Yes.

Now do you understand Mark?

(Next time I'll spell it out better, for the benefit of the pseudo-intellectuals over here - LOL)

Loved the book

Wulfgar — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 22:18:10 GMT

The movie not quite as much. Now, The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming!, that was a fine film.

Slightly to the side like,

I do notice that the Chamber's favorite poster boy, Tom Burnett, is running against JP Pomnichowski in what is certain to be one of the state's most expensive races, again.

Of course they are...

back in the 1920's the head of the US Chamber said we should liquidate all the farmers, and union members.

Look, over the last 45 years Republicans, with a little help from the Democrats, have strangled the regulators via budget cuts, inadequate funding, and elimination of every regulation they could eliminate..why should they stop now?

The one thing that is certain...MOST people realize it was the banks that have repeatedly needed taxpayer bailouts....MOST people realize that banks have to be regulated or they will screw themselves and us again...

The US Chamber promotes a radical corporate agenda that believes the power and the wealth of the Nation is better off in the hands of the few, rather than the many.

And we're willing to kill any chance of reform now

jflashmontana — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:01:17 GMT

in the hopes that we can get something better in the future. Classic example of the perfect being the enemy of getting started.....

What they going to do under your plan?

JC — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:33:59 GMT

Oh, right. You guys don't have a bill on the table, now do you?

Go get a CBO score, and check back real soon now Craig. And tell me how many uninsured there's going to be. You know, the kind of people whose premiums never change, because they don't have one to pay.

And what are premiums going to do if the dem plan goes down in flames this week? They're going to raise. What's going to happen if the republicans take over this fall and the white house in '12? Premiums are going to raise.

Ah - the censors are gone?

Mark Tokarski — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:09:31 GMT

To paraphrase you, we don't need the fucking Democratic Health Care Reform Bill. We need fucking health care reform.

Eric - I try to hear your words and understand you ...

Mark Tokarski — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 15:39:28 GMT

But sometimes you are just appallingly stupid.

"FACT CHECK: Premiums would rise under Obama plan"

Read it and weep.

Just one thing -

Once again, I'll put up a question, an answer, and another question;

Question: What ended the last Ice Age?

Answer: Global Warming

Question: Did mankind have anything to do with it, or is it a natural cycle?

Good RWC regard progressives as sheep being led to the shearing by

"Creel" Commission

Mark Tokarski — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 13:59:48 GMT

The anti-climate change campaign was sophisticated public relations ...

Mark Tokarski — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 13:59:17 GMT

I wasn't talking about human nature so much as the PR business and the people who shape the public mind. That science has always been with us in crude form, but only since the Creek Commission and World War II has it become what we can loosely call a "science."
