		<description>I wonder if anyone here actually has taken the time to run the numbers and see exactly how much money is being wasted on health insurance policies when that same money could be invested in interest-bearing accounts.

A recent case in Hawaii showed a high-profile uninsured patient who paid 35% less for the same care that an insured patient would have been responsible for through his insurance company.  Figure in the total amount of money people and their employers pay for these policies, and it actually doesn&#039;t make sense for people to carry this insurance.

Now Obama and his gang want to force people to buy a product that:

1. increases the actual cost of care,

2. costs more than simply saving the same money and alotting it to a specific purpose,

and

3. is illegal for the federal government to force upon the people.

Sounds like an open-and-shut case against Obama and his accomplices in Congress to me.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The worse moments were anytime McCain spoke. He once again served a hanging curve ball right down the middle of the plate and Obama knocked it out of the park providing the MSM with the signature moment they were looking for. Bloomberg played over and over again all day long after cutting away from live coverage.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Don&#039;t forget the credibility McCain&#039;s having been the R in 2008 gives the MSM.

What&#039;s done is certainly done, but any Republican who can&#039;t see the error in choosing McCain in &#039;08 given this &quot;performance&quot; sees less than the ostrich with its head in the sand.

Hopefully, these same Republicans will be more careful whom gets the nod in 2012 - and also for 2010 campaigns.  They could possibly win back some of the conservatives they lost if they do.

And you know the story of Clapton’s song ‘Badge’ right?

It was written by George, and Clapton, reading the lyrics upside down, misread ‘bridge’ in the handwritten notes…

and also has a line submitted by Ringo! (”…I told you about the swans that they live in the park…”)&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Wasn&#039;t that around the time Eric was putting the boots to Patty, which kinda pissed of George?

Just got our power back on, food in the fridge and freezer pretty much effed.</description>
