OUR THOUGHTS ARE AS POTENT AS BULLETS
So use them wisely. Radiate love. Bless everyone you meet. Your thoughts create your reality.

What you focus on GROWS!

Every thought changes our biochemistry. Pay attention to what brings you joy. Dr Christiane Northup

HAPPY FRIDAY! TODAY IS A DAY OF LIBERATION AND COMPLETION!
My son has Chemistry finals today, and I finally complete phase one of a wonderful task, which, through perseverance, actually transformed itself from a terrifying chore to a joyous journey. I enjoyed every minute of the writing, and the spaces. This was the first time in my life I committed to shutting the world out and going within. We are going to have a great weekend!! Love to all of you! xoxoxoxoxo
SOME THOUGHTS TO BRING YOU PEACE OF MIND:

1. MONEY AND THE LAW OF ATTRACTION
If you believe that you must work hard in order to deserve the money that comes to you, then money cannot come to you unless you do work hard. Financial success, or any other kind of success, does not require hard work. It does require alignment of thought. You simply cannot offer negative thought about things that you desire and then make up for it with action or hard work. When you learn to direct your own thoughts, you will discover the true leverage of Energy alignment.


--- Abraham

Excerpted from the book "Money and the Law of Attraction: Learning to Attract Health, Wealth and Happiness"


"Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy -- meditate on these things." Philippians 4:8

"Each friend represents a world in us.

A world possibly not born until they arrive,

and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."

- Anais Nin



These are the best years of our lives. Surrounded by so much love and laughter.

THE SEVEN DAY MENTAL DIET: How to Change Your Life in a Week
by Emmet Fox

"Our thoughts are just as potent and real as bullets." Naweko noixia.com


"Stress is the consequence of resistance to your life. (Most disease is stress-related, even cancer.) When we resist, argue, are angry or make others wrong... we are not at peace with our true nature. When you relax into acceptance, that's when you can start reclaiming your peace.
Your life is now; you can't wait to become peaceful." - Gary Zukav


Acceptance of whatever is going on, is the key to serenity.

Weapons (Implements) of violence serve evil. Humanity has failed to learn this profound teaching. There is no victory in any activiity where killing takes place.
We are all connected by our originating spirit. What appears to be a victory is really false.

Taking pleasure in winning a battle is onlly the ego's will to kill. Our lowest nature. Our highest nature rebels against this.

Anything "won" by force is not a victory. It will turn against you.

Arms serve evil; they are the tools of those who oppose wise rule. If you kill someone you must feel compassion for the one you killed.

  2. Hi Lydia...

    Thank you for putting my site on your blog. I haven't updated since 15Jul09...I've been busy, weddings, appointments and then the bout of my kidney thing really had me thrown down.

    I did do a story for cnn Ireport about the whole Sgt Crowley and Prof. Gates hate thriving media twisting mess.

    I live in a Suburb near Cambridge...I know the area. It's like when I lived in Beverly Hills...you cross 1 streeet and you go from Hell's Kitchen to a totally opposite place.

    I know Sgt Crowley, personally...as I've worked with him a few times over the past few years. Put it this way, he would always come with his best friend, not that it matters, a black man. He teaches his "racial profiling" classes with urgency to NOT be a racist...people aren't always what they seem...and the folks you'd never expect...are the bad guys...etc...

    I also know of the Prof. Gates reputation. He teaches here. My friend, a female, took a course of his for "enlightment" and bridging gaps. Let's just say this, he bashes the "oppression" thing into the ground...and doesn't have positive things to say about society and good people. He creates a wedge with his teachings of racism and oppression. This is a bit of what I know as a professional...and on a personal level...he's rude, abrupt and arrogant.

    The whole media thing grabbed and ran with this...and it shouldn't have happened. People chose sides...didn't have all facts...and it was a crime like the L.A. riots. I lived through that...one of the very few incidents in Beverly Hills, found me like always, right smack in the middle. I was waiting in line for gas...traffic bumper to bumper on Wilshire...as all people were fleeing home. I had friends that flew from Boston and were airborn before the Riots broke out. Sitting in the gas line I started to see a crowd of men with bats and chains etc...stomping from car roof top to car rooftop...screaming, breaking windsheilds...etc...then I saw a man take a baby from the back of an SUV and run...I was about to get out of my car when I saw he came back for the mother...it was the station attendant bringing them to saftey. Not that it matters, the mom and child were white...the rescue hero Gas Station guy was Latino...and the violent crowd of men were African Americans. Then out of nowhere 20 squad cars screeched up with guns in hand. I didn't stay for the rest...I went home and suffered from the curfews, lungs burning from smoke and asthma...no pay because productions were paused as well as my bartending job was closed.

    These are the type of things that happen when a racial slur is spat...from any culture...and the person feeling "entitled" to hurl these statements are the actual racists.

    My opinon based of personal and professional knowledge. Research from all sides of what the American people were doing. An assesment of the situation...and the following nonsense that went on and on. People, including the president were quick to judge and make statements and slurs...without any knowledge of the full facts.
    BTW it's all on tape.

  3. Anyway, I was at an "in-law" wedding over the weekend and met a wife of one of the cousins. Somehow she got talking about her journalism and writing...mostly freelance now, for Womens Day, People, Business Week etc...
    We talked about format and writing styles...then my website, which led me to talk about yours. She said, "oh my god! I just interviewd her for an article I was assigned. She went on to tell me all about you...and I told her you were one of my best friends...for years. She flipped and said, you were very intelligent, wise, creative, and spiritual. She said she felt a great lifting of spirit after you shared some of your thoughts and how you live your life. She said, the article is great...and that to say, "hi" and she has another project coming up for a similar assignment. Something to do with stereo-typing women because of what they look like and what they do for work...etc... Her whole take was she was glad to expose the woman behind the image. It got to the point of almost, "ENOUGH!" I already know that....hahahaha.

    I have just got news from 4 friends that they received a "reference check" call regarding the position I applied for with the Gov/State/Town. I guess everyone followed up with a lot of hype about me...I'm surprised, the interview went well...and it's more than 6 months and 3 phone calls later. I'd really dig being one of the advocates for folks that need someone like me.



    After my whole kidney scare again...I woke up today feeling better...and fearless. When I have a flare up I hibernate...this time I thought I had "end stage renal failure" beacuse, I read a lot of medical sites, and I have no chemistry skills, and I was diagnosing myself. I saw my doctor and same old same old...surgery and remission.
    At least I know...and have been there a million times.

    Lastly, you know how we almost pick up each others thoughts and call or email or message a few words pertinent to what is going on? This time is was your turn and I woke to read your 1 line about today being a great day and feeling fine and yesterday is over and no worries, kind of sentance. There are no co incidents...and my check in with you confirmed you had a hunch.

    I'm so blessed...and so are you and everyone.

    A lot of people just don't know it.

    Some just need to get out of self and into God.

    And the world can return to harmony and away from destruction and selfishness.

    Buy an elderly woman in line at the doughnut shop....her coffee and muffin.

    I do stuff like that to express my gratitude to those that worked so hard for all we have.

  9. Jim, I totally believe you. I had an intuition that Gates was over-reactive. I honestly think the cop Crowley was not at all racist.

  10. Jim, I'm still working. It's like weaving an embroidered tapestry -- all these pieces.

  16. Hey will .... I found the originations of one of your main talking points;

    Ensuring Accurate Perceptions of the Health
    Insurance Industry


    It is this section;

    III. Reframe the Debate:
    Highlight Threats and Weaknesses of Government-Run Systems

    Improve the US system instead of enacting Government run care.
    .

    Which is your tired OLD talking point, And NOT what is actually being suggested by the Obama Administration.


    BTW this comment caught my eyes;

    Understand that the film - and the attendant media coverage - will be a major source of conversation and frustration for employees of the industry.

    Because with the ranting angry comments you keep leaving here, we all can see how frustrated you are.

    And we all know you are an employee of the health care system, sounds like you are pushing their views well even though you claim you aren't doing it.

  19. Clear Channel not interested in hiring Sarah Palin.

    On Monday, Inside Radio reported that former governor Sarah Palin’s representatives “have been quietly testing the waters to see how much interest radio syndicators have for her.” While Palin isn’t committed to radio, she is reportedly open to it as “a possible next step.” But the interest in her might not be as great as some had speculated. According to Broadcasting & Cable, Clear Channel Broadcasting, the country’s biggest radio conglomerate, has already turned Palin down because of fears that she wouldn’t be able to “hold forth for three hours a day.”

    In other words too stoopid to do three hours of knuckle dragging reich wing moron radio ......

  21. Clif, I haven't made ANY criticisms of Obama/his plan in this debate. I've only been critical of "single payer". But that's O.K.. Continue to mischaracterize me.

    ReplyDelete
  22. But nobody in congress has a bill suggesting single payer, so why are YOU tilting at wind mills again

    Like you did last summer runnin' around the tubes screeching when ever somebody said something you personally didn't approve about St Johnny the delusional?

    And why are you using the talking points pushed by Alex Castellanos

    Like the ones he pushes in this Washington Post piece.

    * "They want a Washington-centered plan.

    * "We support patient-centered reforms.

    * "They want a big Washington Experiment with our health.

    * "We want common-sense simple fixes that will yield real results.

    * "They want to start building a closed health care system where Washington decides how much money will be saved on health care by controlling the doctors you can see and limiting the treatments and cures your doctor can prescribe.

    * "The patient-centered health care movement supports an open health-care system where patients and doctors make those decisions.

    * "They want a top-down system where bureaucrats far away end up deciding what health care is worth paying for and what isn't, and for whom.

    * "We want a bottom-up, patient-centered system where control remains with your doctor and with you.

    * "They want political and artificial cost-reductions from Washington.

    * "We want to get politics out of health care not put more politics in. We want common sense fixes not politically driven experiments.

    * "They want to empower a big Washington-run monopoly to control your health care.

    * "We say monopolies are just not natural. Big monopolies are bad no matter who runs them, whether it is big government or big insurance businesses.
    ,

    Right there are most of the reich wing talking points you keep trying to put in your rantings here.

    They mirror the Frank Luntz set of talking points the reich wingers in congress keep spewing,


    and of course the

    The Lewin Group a wholly owned subsidiary of United Health Group, one of the nation's largest insurers. Which pushes almost exactly the same talking points.

    If you aren't a fellow traveler of the reich wing,

    Why do you sound exactly like one?

  27. Congressman Weiner has proposed/introduced a single-payer system. Bragged about it on Rachel Maddow's show. And this whole thing started with me debating Mike on, HELLO, single-payer! You really need to get your facts a little straighter there Cliffy.

  28. Good insights into the Crowley-Gates story, Jim. Thanks for sharing them with us.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Congressman Wiener introduced an amendment called the "Elimination of Eligibility and Benefits" to terminate medicare and medicaid and social security because they are "socialism".

    He did it to show how stupid people are who are against a single payer system, by pointing out we already have single payer systems.

    From the Amendment.

    (a)Findings.-Congress finds that-
    (1) Medicare is socialized medicine;and
    (2) Medicare is a single-payer system.
    (b)Elimination of Medicare Eligibility Under Parts B,C and D.

    It's a shame our congressmen have to go to such extremes to shame liars and fools who either don't realize or won't acknowledge that we already have single-payer systems.

  30. Well, for some reason, I guess Republicans don’t like publicly funded, publicly administered health plans except for Medicare, and, I guess, except for the Veterans Administration and except for the health care that our military gets from the Department of Defense. The fact of the matter is, what we’ve learned is that government administered health care works pretty darn well. It’s got lower overhead and people like it.

    So, when my Republican colleagues pound the drum and pound the podium about how they hate government-run health care, I guess they haven’t looked at what they get.

  33. Will's LIE:

    Congressman Weiner has proposed/introduced a single-payer system.

    the truth;

    NEWS: Weiner to Offer Amendment to End Medicare.

    Litmus Test for Foes of Government Run Healthcare

    Put-Up or Shut-Up Time for GOP
    ?

    Washington, DC – On the 44th anniversary of President Lyndon B. Johnson signing the Medicare program into law, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-Brooklyn and Queens), a member of the Health Subcommittee, announced he will offer an amendment to the America's Affordable Health Choices Act that would eliminate the Medicare program. The move comes amid a chorus of Republican members decrying the notion of government run healthcare.

    "It’s put-up or shut-up time for the phonies who deride the so-called ‘public option’," Rep. Weiner said .

    From the congressman's own website, which obviously widdle will never checked before spouting his LIE

    widdle will's whine about the publicity a US congressman gets;

    Bragged about it on Rachel Maddow's show.

    Exposing reich wing hypocrisy, like congressman Weiner did makes you frustrated and angry it seems widdle will.

    I wonder why?

    Why would a known concern troll get frustrated and angry when reich wing hypocrisy is exposed?

    Me thinks he can't stand any truth about the people he fronts their talking points and spin as his own being exposed for the frauds they are, because that exposes him as a bigger fraud here.

    And this whole thing started with me debating Mike on, HELLO, single-payer !

    Funny your rants full of reich wing talking points and sound bites PRE-DATE the congressman's actions (IE two days ago,) or Rachel Maddow's publicizing those actions, (yesterday)which makes this either another lie or you as delusional as you normally are.

    Your delusional rants complete with reich wing spin and talking points has been going for a couple weeks at least.

    Wanna try spinnin' that one again junior?

    BTW which single payer system are you against?

    Single payer health care OR single payer health insurance?

    Because there are major differences between the two.

    You really need to get your facts a little straighter there Cliffy.

    Facts, try the actual facts son, not the ones you get by reaching around in your rectum to access your personal stash of facts which have no connection to the reality the rest of us live in son.

  40. Worf,

    The fact of the matter is quite simple. Even you should be able to grasp it.

    Your examples of Medicare and Medicaid or even the VA are not open to all people.

    A private for profit company cannot compete financially with a not for profit venture with the deep pockets of the American taxpayer.

    Whether the coverage was better or not people would slowly gravitate to the cheaper option until finally the others would go out of business.

    And if a free option was available many employers would drop their employees private coverage to increase their profit.

    The other companies may not go out of business overnight, but go out of business they would.

    And we would all be left with just ONE option.


    You also fail to notice that the cost of "free" health care is unsustainable. Either taxes would be raised to unbearable levels or rationing would HAVE to occur.

    Look at programs in Mass. or Hawaii
    for examples of that here.

    You recently held up Britain as an good example.

    The elderly there can't even get life prolonging procedures if their near the end of their estimated life expectancy.

    Women are routinely refused the latest treatments and medicines for breast cancer.

  41. Get the trascripts to the Maddow show. He said that he was introducing legislation for single-payer. It wasn't just that dog and pony show on Medicare. You're the frigging liar, Clif. Show me one instance where I was criticizing the current plans in conrgess during this discussion (I probably could, but I wasn't). You can't. That's because I was debating, HELLO (again), single-payer (yes, idiot, I know the difference between insurance and actual healthcare).

  42. You're the talking points guy, Clif. You NEVER, EVER criticize the Dems. I criticize those on the right constantly. Even on this very site, I said that I didn't think that Palin had the gravitas to be president. Where in the right-wing talking points is THAT mentioned. And I said some good things about Senator Conrad and his proposal. Did I get THAT from the RNC? You are so full of crap that I can smell it through my computer screen.

  43. 1)Medicare is laced with fraud. 2)It's heading for a demographic nightmare in less than a generation. We're either going to have to raise taxes drastically or cut benefits. These are not partisan observations, Cliffy. Or maybe they are here. Who knows. P.S. I'm not going to debate (i.e., address directly) Bartlebee anymore. The stupidity is just too palpable. He tried to tell me that single-payer isn't necessarity one payer. I mean, seriously, how do you deal with somebody like that? YOU DON'T!

    No volty just around 45% of the American people where as around 37% depend on the private insurance industry not ripping them off when they need health care.

  53. The people who rip off Medicare, Clif, aren't other insurance companies. They're doctors and patients who know how to game the system. I work in a healthcare facility and the games that are played are legendary. And, no, I'm not in favor of doing away with Medicare, just not in favor expanding it until we look at other options first (which is Obama's opinion, too, evidently).

  59. So, what are you saying now, Clif, you want all doctors and facilities to be under the rubric of the federal government..

    No never said that any where here, you dishonestly tried to insinuate did, which is a form of LYING, which you seem to have NO problem at all doing,

    Like the LIE you told about never claiming of being a liberal, when you did exactly that at media matters begging people to come to your waste of bandwidth.


    Seems part of your stock in trade along with your straw man arguments like you tried to construct after telling this lie is LYING repeatedly.

    You want not just socialized insurance but socialized medicine as well..

    No never said that either, a continuation of the lies you tell son.


    Wow.

    Yes it is quite amazing how easily you lie repeatedly here about what others post.

  63. Here's how it works, Clif. A patient/resident gets referred for therapy. The therapist/therapy department knows exactly how many visits that Medicare allows. And, yes, that's exactly how many they go for, whether or not that many are needed. And when the therapy rolls are low, sometimes they go trolling (to use one of your buzzwords) for "business" (i.e., looking for people to treat). The end result is that a lot of unncessary treatments end up happening. Yeah, I could try and be a trouble-maker and speak up. But I'm not a medical person, Clif (I work in recreation). As you know, doctors and therapists are very good at justifying things (the lingo, etc.). It would be my opinion against theirs. I would lose and I would probably be fired. I'm not like you, Clif. I can't sit at home and wait for that monthly check. I need to work.

  64. No, Clif, you never said it.


    Right, so you admitted you lied here like you do repeatedly ....

    But I'm going with your logic here; the private sector is screwing things up, etc..

    Um will that is what YOU said son,

    YOU said and I quote;

    The people who rip off Medicare, Clif, aren't other insurance companies. They're doctors and patients who know how to game the system. I work in a healthcare facility and the games that are played are legendary.

    Which I simply stated they worked in the private sector billing the US government in a very similar way private contractors who defraud the DOD do.

    So you tried to molify your statement by saying this.

    They're doctors and patients who know how to game the system. I work in a healthcare facility and the games that are played are legendary.

    YOU said it son, NOT me.


    But for some reason you wanna say I said it,


    Delusional sorta fits I think.

    Or you are exactly what worf said you were a fraud pushing your concern trolling techniques as much as possible

    Seems to be the case given how much you blame me and others for what you actually type

    Damn son why?

  65. Here's how it works, Clif. A patient/resident gets referred for therapy. The therapist/therapy department knows exactly how many visits that Medicare allows. And, yes, that's exactly how many they go for, whether or not that many are needed.

    So they are bilking the system proscribing treatment or tests that aren't medically necessary, which is the definition of fraud.

    The federal government prosecute and sometimes even send to prison people for doing exaclty what you claim you know about.

    And YOU go along with it just to get your tiny little cut?

    Interesting

    And when the therapy rolls are low, sometimes they go trolling (to use one of your buzzwords) for "business" (i.e., looking for people to treat).

    So they have mulitiple ways to commite out right fraud, finding people who aren't in need of the treatemnts they wanna bilk medicare or medicaid out of?

    And widdle will keeps his mouth shut for his pieces of silver he covents it seems.

    The end result is that a lot of unncessary treatments end up happening.

    So you admit it is fraud?

    Why did you then say it was legal above?


    Trying to justify your complicity?

    Yeah, I could try and be a trouble-maker and speak up. But I'm not a medical person, Clif (I work in recreation). As you know, doctors and therapists are very good at justifying things (the lingo, etc.). It would be my opinion against theirs. I would lose and I would probably be fired.

    Seems you really are trying to justify your complicity for getting your little pittance.

    I'm not like you, Clif.

    You are right there lack the testicular fortitude to do what is right whether the costs is a physical or financial detriment to your self,

    Me, I took the risk all uniformed service members take for the country and paid a minor cost as a result. I know you do not under stand that, but I don't expect a little weasle like you to understand


    I can't sit at home and wait for that monthly check.

    Seems you are channeling crusty and his attacks on those who get wounded defending all of our country, even though you never offered to do so yourself,

    Quite a hypocrite you turn out to be.

    I need to work.

    And make sure you don't rock the boat so you are safely getting your silver while you knowingluy allow opeople to cheat the system,

    Like I said you lack the testicular fortitude to ever put your self in harms way for others, and you just proved it in spades.

    The irony here is Wiener's Amendment actually was designed to teach thickheads like will here that we already DO have single payer systems that co-exist in our country alongside of public insurance plans.

    Something he tried to claim couldn't happen.

    He tried claiming people would be "forced" to give up their current plans under a single payer system, which just happens to be the current RNC talking point.

    Congressman Wiener's amendment was designed to drive home the point that we already have single payer systems and no ones been forced to give up their insurance just because those options exist.

    Unfortunately wills skull is a bit too thick for even a mock amendment like that.... a "teaching amendment" to do any good.

    The truth of course was spoken clearly by your tag team friend Voltron, who nailed the coffin shut on that nonsense by pointing out that people would LEAVE their current insurance if we had a single payer option. Not lose it.

    That's the truth, and we thank Voltron for sharing it with us.

  96. Worf,

    What Voltron pointed out was that people with NO insurance who didn't want insurance who would be FINED for not having insurance would gravitate to the cheapest option.

    People whose employers dropped their private coverage because of the higher taxes imposed by Obama's plan would probably fall back on the free option due to their tax burden as well.

    And I'm sure they'll make the free option as attractive as hell until they get most of us trapped in it.

    Like I said a private for profit business cannot compete with a not for profit venture backed by the US taxpayer.

    I doubt YOU Worf could stay in business long if someone were to start offering the same services as you only for free.

    The problem is, after they drove you out of business what stipulations would they then be able to impose on that service?

  103. Worf already said earlier Britain was a great system to model.

    Since they're a much smaller country I'd expect their breast cancer rates would drop below ours significantly if they'd only allow women to have the latest treatments and drugs.

    They'd probably have a longer life expectancy too if they'd provide better care for their elderly instead of just allowing them to die.


    Still ya gotta wonder, if our system is SOOOO bad, why do foreign leaders from all over the world come here for treatment?

    ReplyDelete
  104. Are there private health insurance companies in Canada or England.

    Um will YES;

    Though the public system dominates healthcare provision in England, private health care and a wide variety of alternative and complementary treatments are available for those willing to pay.

    Private health care has continued parallel to the NHS, paid for largely by private insurance, but it is used by less than 8% of the population, and generally as a top-up to NHS services. Recently there have been some examples where unused private sector capacity has been used to increase NHS capacity amd in some cases the NHS has commissioned the private sector to establish and run new facilities on a sub contracted basis. Some new capital programs have been financed through the private finance initiative. The involvement of the private sector remains relatively small yet, according to one survey by the BMA, a large proportion of the public oppose such involvement.


    And Canada:

    About 30% of Canadians' health care is paid for through the private sector. This mostly goes towards services not covered or only partially covered by Medicare, such as prescription drugs, dentistry and optometry. Some 65% of Canadians have some form of supplementary private health insurance; many of them receive it through their employers. There are also large private entities that can buy priority access to medical services in Canada, such as WCB in BC.

    (from wiki)

    So will you should probably take this idiot's advice;

    You really shouldn't talk about something you don't know anything about.

    the bill Congressman Weiner INTRODUCED and that Congress voted on was NOT a single payer bill,

    NO actually it was a bill to eliminate Medicare,

    Why do YOU keep lying about it?

    ReplyDelete
  107. Yes Will,

    In Britain they DO have supplemental insurance to pay for things the government refuses to.

    The problem is, that once you use that insurance the government no longer considers you part of their system and will no longer pay for any care.


    And in Canada they have for profit companies that will take you across the border to America for immediate treatment and then help you sue the Canadian government for payment coverage.

    John Stossel recently did an excellent piece on how marvelous health care in Canada is. No waiting lines, same day service and the latest technology etc...

    Only thing is to get that level of care you have to bark or meow.

    (Evidently their veterinary clinics are top notch!)

    Here it is again for the perpetually stupid.

    Something you claimed could not happen.

    You claimed if we had a single payer system we'd be forced to lose our coverage.

    You even mocked me and said "duh" like I was stupid for simply stating the truth, and that you were wrong about that.

    Washington, DC – On the 44th anniversary of President Lyndon B. Johnson signing the Medicare program into law, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-Brooklyn and Queens), a member of the Health Subcommittee, announced he will offer an amendment to the America's Affordable Health Choices Act that would eliminate the Medicare program.


    ---


    THAT's the amendment he introduced.

    Not what you claimed.

    No one doubts that Weiner, like the rest of us want a single payer option.

    No one.

    But YOU said he introduced a bill for a single payer option when in fact he introduced a bill to end medicare.

    Like WE said.

    We were right.

    You were wrong.


    Suck on that, troll.

  139. BTW son I watched the Rachel Maddow show LIVE,

    I don't need some lying fraud to screech at me, because he thinks he has solved all the problems if we would just listen to his idiocy.

  141. I'm arguing against single-payer health care, Clif. And I'm doing in a manner that is virtually equivalent to the way that Dr. Ezekial Emanuel (Obama advisor) does. Nothing right-wing about that, Cliffy. So, what did you think about Weiner's web-site? Pretty cool, huh? LOL

    ReplyDelete
  142. Click on the link that says, "Weiner pushes for SINGLE PAYER SYSTEM (my emphasis)". That should clear it up for you.

    ReplyDelete
  143. Funny widdle will thinks he is arguing against single payer, but can't define EXACTLY what type of single payer is being proposed, nor can he state why single payer is bad for any body but rich wall street corporate medical conglomerates and their greedy owners.


    All he has is the same TIRED old RNC reich wing talking points he pushes

  146. or give a rats ass what you think?

    ReplyDelete
  147. I'm not asking you to listen to me, boy. I'm asking you to listen to Weiner. (Here we go again LOL) "Tomorrow I'll be taking the next step by offering a true single-payer health care plan." You must have tuned that part out, Cliffy. And, yes, that's why you really need to listen to it again. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  148. exactly which single payer system are you arguing against son?

    the VA system?

    Medicare system

    Medicaid system

    Canadian system where well over 90% of the Canadians are satisfied.

    German system where more then 90% of the citizens of ermany give it high marks?

    What is the problem widdle will?

    ReplyDelete
  149. What is so bad about the German system?

    Or Swedish system?

    ReplyDelete
  150. Why do more Americans go to Canada just to buy drugs then the total number of Canadians come to the US for all aspects of health care?

    ReplyDelete
  151. You're just name calling now, Clif. As I said, I'm expressing the exact same criticisms (of single payer) as an Obama advisor. And Weiner's words are absolutely on tape. Face it, Clif, ya' got nothin' here. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  152. Come on widdle will you are against these style systems, so you should be able to explain what is wrong with them.

    ReplyDelete
  153. Explain what is your exact objection to the systems the vast majority of the civilized world uses to handle the health care of their citizens?

    You spout so much you MUST have studied them right?

    ReplyDelete
  154. Come on will you seem to be claiming you know MORE then a congressman who studied this.

    Funny, this quote doesn't appear on his site.

    No one doubt's congressman Weiner is for a single payer plan."

    We all are.

    But that quote's not on his site, at least not anywhere on the main pages.

    What is there is his amendment to end medicare. The one you claimed was to introduce a single payer system.

    Either way it's moot.

    No one doubts Weiner wants a single payer system.

    But what you said about him introducing a bill into the house last week to switch to a single payer system, was a lie.

    He did not.

    You lied.

    You said last week that he HAD introduced a bill into the house to go to a single payer system.

    He did NOT.

    You were wrong.

    It's you've who've got nothing, troll.

  159. Looks like widdle will can't answer REAL questions instead of the straw man arguments he got from RNC central in his daily email.

    ReplyDelete
  160. Seems widdle will is GOOD at repeating RNC reich wing talking points attacking a strawman that doesn't exist. BUT not good at answering questions about real working systems the vast majority of the rest of industrialized world uses.

    ReplyDelete
  161. Come on widdle will,

    you screech so much that YOU are against these systems,

    WHY?

  164. Isn't it nice how the troll who is too ashamed of his own comments to post his handle with them, doesn't believe our veterans of foreign wars should receive benefits?

    ReplyDelete
  165. What a miserable wretch he must be to be so ashamed of his own comments he can't even use his regular handle.

    We should pity him.

    ReplyDelete
  166. " Tomorrow I'll be taking the next step by offering a true single-payer health care plan." He said that in the Rachel Maddow interview. About half-way through the interview he says it. On his own site (Weiner's), there is a link that says, "Weiner pushes for single-payer system". If you click that link, you can hear him address the committee. It's all there, Clif. Don't blame me if you choose to ignore it.

    ReplyDelete
  167. I only post under my own handle, unlike other people.

    ReplyDelete
  168. President Obama and his advisors (Dr. Ezekial Emanuel, etc.), Clif - they're apparently agianst a single-payer system, too. Why the hell aren't you attacking them, too?

    ReplyDelete
  169. I never once said that I was against Medicare, Clif (strawman!!). I just don't think that we should be adding to the dole until we can figure out a way in which we can save, HELLO!!!!!!, Medicare. Seriously, Clif, you need to learn a little about demographics, the fact that the baby boomers are going to be stretching this program that we both apparently like.

    uhhh, don't know how to break this to you dumbass, but medicare is suffering from a lack of funding.

    The way to "save" it is to increase funding.

  173. See troll, if we voted for increasing coverage under medicare to cover all Americans, that would include FUNDING.

    You really are a stupid little troll.

    ReplyDelete
  174. Rachel Maddow's show was last week and THAT is how I got the frigging information. HELLO!!!!!! What, now that you're busted, you're going to do a Clintonian parcing of words. At first you guys denied that he said these words. Now that you can't deny them (because they on a frigging video) anymore, here comes the legalese. Absolutely pathetic.

    ReplyDelete
  175. All you're basically saying is that taxes would go up astronomically if we put forth a single-payer, one size fits all model. You're definitely right about that.

    ReplyDelete
  176. Obama evidently hasn't gotten your guys' memo. Is he stupid, too. He must be. He agrees with me.

    ReplyDelete
  177. The government can't even run a frigging cash for clunkers program. And you guys want them to take over 16% of the U.S. economy. I'm comforted. LOL

    Hello is right, troll.

    You're a liar and you were from the beginning.

    HERE is what you said troll.

    Will "take no prisoners" Hart said...

    Talk to Congressman Weiner. He just introduced single-payer legislation/told Rachel Maddow that his goal was to eliminate private health insurance coverage.

    8:48 PM



    THATS what you said, troll.

    Only he didn't introduce legislation to end private health insurance coverage on Maddow's show.

    He introduced legislation to end MEDICARE.


    HELLO!!!

    ReplyDelete
  179. Here's what Will actually said one more time.

    We corrected him, pointing out that the LEGISLATION he introduced was to end medicare, not private insurance coverage.

    We pointed this out to Will, and willy boy disappeared.

    Then, he waits until his original comment gets buried, and then comes back in a days later and LIES through his rotted teeth.

    ReplyDelete
  180. Once more the troll's own words reveal him for a liar.

    ReplyDelete
  181. Will's normal operation.

    Lie.

    When busted on the lie, disappear.

    Wait a few hours or days until the post count buries the lie, then return and pretend he never said it.

    Then, when someone reposts the lie so he can't wriggle out of it, disappear again until he can shift attention off of it.

  182. We already pay taxes.

    We already get services for those taxes.

    Leave it to the republicans to find a group of people so dirt dumb ignorant as to protest against getting one more service in exchange for paying taxes.

    Stupidity is the number one resource of the RNC.

  183. "hmmm...lemme see...... I could continue to pay taxes and get the services I already get and nothing more....or ..............I could continue pay taxes and get the services I already get plus health care too.

  184. So widdle will you have NO answers to the questions I asked,

    YOU just ignore then and continue your don Quixote routine against single payer with out actually explaining why the rest of the planet that has them hasn't collapsed like you claim we would do.

    See folks? Took this two bit scumbag just a few hours to dream up this lie.

    Notice how he, as I predicted, completely ignores being exposed in his lie about Weiners bill?

    Notice how he just changes the issue by inventing another lie?

    No one said that it wouldn't cost money.

    No one.

    No where.

    At no time.

    But this douchebag troll just pretends we did.

    ReplyDelete
  189. No one said it wouldn't cost more money troll.

    When you get back from jerking off, you can own up to that lie too.

    ReplyDelete
  190. Alright, I'm going to try this one more time. The only thing that I ask is that you read these words slowly and carefully. 1) Yes I am aware of the Medicare legislation that Weiner introduced. It was an attempt on his part to embarrass the Republicans and, yes, mission accomplished (it was actually quite crafty). 2) And, yes, he did in fact talk about this on the Maddow show. Are we in agreement so far? 3) But, BUT, about halfway through the interview, the suject turned to single-payer. It was at this point that Weiner said, a) "Why even have private insurance at all?" and b) Tomorrow I'll be taking the next step by offering a true single-payer health care plan" (I think it was around the 4 minute mark of the interview). 4) It was a day or two after that that I informed you guys of this plan. 5) I also informed you of Congressman Weiner's own web-site in which he has a link (drum-roll, please) labeled, "Weiner pushes for single-payer system". Now, unless Mr. Weiner is lying about this, I really think that you can pretty much take that to the bank. 6) I'm also very curious as to why you won't answer my question about Obama. He evidently isn't in favor of single-payer, either. Why are you not attacking him? I mean, you do put priciples over politics, don't you. 7) I have in no way approached this issue from a right-wing perspective. I am FOR tighter regulations on the insurance companies. I am FOR (or at least I'm not opposed to) providing Medicaid to the working poor who don't have insurance (this I would pay for with cuts in foreign aid and farming subsidies to agribusiness). And I am willing to entertain Senator Conrad's ideas regarding co-opts (as an alternative to the public option). Look, I know that you guys see everything in black and white but, believe it or not, there's a large chunk of us out here who don't like Sean Hannity OR Keith Olbermann. And we don't deserve to be labeled by a mental midget menagerie.

    ReplyDelete
  191. I'll leave it up to Lydia to decide if she wants to allow the language that this fellow uses ("blanking off"). He says that we "already pay taxes", implying that it wouldn't require more. And when he quotes me, he leaves off the question mark. I was asking him a question (granted, it was rhetorical). We already pay taxes, he goes. LOL I can see why Volt doesn't like coming here anymore (and MCH....and Frank Frey....).
