My personal response to her was that if anyone was responsible for Wellsones crash the first suspicion would be Bill Clinton who used the same method to eliminate the testimony of his Secretary of Commerece, Mr. Brown and others that managed to displease him, this is old history techniques of the labor union faction of the Democrat Party ( not democratic philosophy )that I and my family have experienced many times in labor, Socialist controlled Milwaukee and the Milwaukee Journal.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">djbltrnmd</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Mar 2012 12:50:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Ineffective Healthcare Bill: A Response to the President&amp;#039;s Speech</title><link>http://www.crnc.org/node/4303#comment-18523775</link><description>&lt;p&gt;  Dear sir or Mrs.,&lt;br&gt;     I wish to share a new concept,the writing is by my hand but the design is by another . No matter of faith within each church,we wish to bring forward a new concept to build on.&lt;br&gt;    A new concept that is offered, how it opens you thoughts and how you wish to share it will be of your design.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  The health care issue is stuck in a sandbox, you have Obama s plan and the Republican plan and as it would seem if the people do not support the plans the door is not open. Everybody is fighting over the sandbox.&lt;br&gt;  We  ask you to come and see a lot of ideas and a building block concept that opens your mind.&lt;br&gt;  Within one to two years we will show how to remove health care out of company pockets so they can join a concept to rebuild jobs in America.&lt;br&gt;  Through a ten dollar factor of,{ $10.00 x 250 million people} we came up with a concept of the average cost  for a health plan built by the people and for the people to vote for. With the effort to build a more perfect Union, a rough view of payments is around is around $10 to $40.00 a month and this covers the whole family. CONCEPT, to build a INURANCE PLAN in and for the people and by the people.&lt;br&gt;   NO! The numbers are right...$1 TRILLION DOLLARS A MONTH. Now unless Government employees think that people are stupid, we invite you to see our thoughts and build on them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  Within the Constitution it is our right by law, that if a person or people see into a issue or issues that is so wrong ,not only is our right to bring it forward it is our duty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  A American Dream,a concept that will touch your mind and its truth for the building block for a HEALTHCARE RFEORM STIMULUS PACKAGE, that has never been conceived within the 21st century of man s thoughts. It will put a smile on your face. The people do not want the system to take care of them, Im sorry but this is true.&lt;br&gt;  Please visit us on &lt;a href="http://google.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="google.com"&gt;google.com&lt;/a&gt; and search for &lt;a href="http://www.fascmovement.mysite.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="www.fascmovement.mysite.com"&gt;www.fascmovement.mysite.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;                                                                                 or click here&lt;br&gt; All we ask is that you PAY IT FORWARD&lt;br&gt; Henry Massingale&lt;br&gt;561 734 1376&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.page" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="1.page"&gt;1.page&lt;/a&gt; 1.american dream&lt;br&gt;It is simply just an old fashioned tearjerker.

I asked "Are Precinct Committee People the most important elected officials in the country?" He said "yes". I have found that every county I have talked with here in Oregon (6 so far) wants the number of write-ins reduced for PCP, we need to contact those that didn't get elected in Primary 2008 instead to fill out the paper work so that they will be on the ballot. The PCP controls the activity done within their own precinct. Each precinct is up to 5,000 persons, a precinct this size could have 9 men &amp;amp; 9 women. The county clerk has a record of those that want to be a PCP but didn't get the 3 votes.

Last January, a really big one started down. The urologist said that it probably wouldn't pass on its own so he booked me for lithotripsy with a wait time of three weeks. The time issue had me a bit worried but he said, if you have an attack of kidney stone pain, go to emerg. I'd already been that route for three other stones, so I knew that they would treat pain promptly, and when the attack was over, send me home to await the stone passing. But I knew this one wouldn't pass. The doctor explained that the stone was not causing any harm, and as long as I wasn't in pain, things were OK. If I was in pain, emerg would assess, and if there was potential for harm, I'd be treated right away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the end, I didn't have an attack, but my lithotripsy was postponed because others had emergency priority. It was six weeks before the lithotripsy which was done as day surgery and the remnants passed within a week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The doctor was right. The system worked. The emergencies got first dibs and everybody was happy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To you, this might sound like a horror story. To me it reaffirmed my faith in our system, that it works for everybody with a little understanding and a little patience.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">oldfred</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:23:31 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Health Reform&amp;#039;s Hidden Victims</title><link>http://www.crnc.org/node/4261#comment-16790748</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Zach, Mr. Fund mis-spelled my first name.

I know all about the Republicans, and the preachers who I heard preaching from the pulpit that their followers should vote Republican or expect hell to be unleashed on earth by the "liberal gay agenda." It's not based on news reports. It's based on real life experience, talking to enthusiastic Republicans who want to "take America back for Jesus." Quote. Research? No research necessary. As long as you republicans have your shameful Joe Wilsons, your wretched Glenn Becks and your vile Rush Limbaughs, as long as you lie and promote fear over dialogue, there's no brainwashing. The Republican party is vile and bankrupt, both morally and intellectually. Anyone with a brain who supports the Republican agenda for America is either a profound hypocrite or insane. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">happydog</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 15 Sep 2009 11:44:31 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Us Your Health Care Horror Story</title><link>http://collegerepublicans.org/node/4292#comment-16617582</link><description>&lt;p&gt;If most of you just want to complain about republicans and the views they posses, why are you on the college republican site?

There are the few republicans who have made that their only argument against healthcare reform, however, that's not the case.  What was said was that doctors would discuss with the patient different options, assisted suicide would be open as an option, not assisted suicide was the only option.  However, I do not agree with giving doctors the power of God to kill off people if they'd like, so I don't support it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Josh Bruno</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 15 Sep 2009 03:51:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Us Your Health Care Horror Story</title><link>http://collegerepublicans.org/node/4292#comment-16617410</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The healthcare reform wouldn't improve our doctors, you just wouldn't have to pay to go to them, if anything, the visits would theoretically, at least, get worse.

Get with it.

I don't know what political party I affiliate myself with, as I am a 19 yo sophomore in college still learning who I am and what is what for me.  I will say that the healthcare reform that the obama admin. is pushing is terrible though.  In the case of my sister, where she has a debilitating disease affecting her liver, she needs a transplant, which, under the obama healthcare plan, she would, most likely, never get, and die, and thus, I don't support a system where you have to wait longer than the time already in place for someone to get a transplant.  I am also not saying that our healthcare plan in place now is perfect.  I think a reform is needed, just not the universal plan that is trying to be *forced* upon us. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Josh Bruno</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 15 Sep 2009 03:34:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Tell Us Your Health Care Horror Story</title><link>http://collegerepublicans.org/node/4292#comment-16596181</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I would like to point out several things:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Number One: The reason the life expectancy in America isn't as high as in other countries such as Japan isn't because the Japanese have a better quality of health care, it is because of the life style Americans choose to pursue. Stop going to McDonald's and Burger King for lunch and eat a home made salad instead. Otherwise, stop complaining about your life expectancy. Is it the government's fault that you keep clogging up your arteries with cholesterol? No. Is it your doctor's fault? No.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Number Two: Americans get less exercise per capita than the people in countries with higher life expectancies. Again, the question isn't whether our health care system is good enough, the question is, "Are you getting enough exercise?" Stop watching TV and playing video games and go outside and start doing something.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Basically, it all boils down to life style choices. Most of the countries with high life expectancies have citizens who eat healthier and generally take better care of their health. Remember:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;LIFE EXPECTANCY CANNOT BE EQUATED WITH THE QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Adrian M.</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 14 Sep 2009 17:41:03 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Young People Leading Swing Back to GOP</title><link>http://www.crnc.org/node/4296#comment-16487642</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Umm No this is laughable there is no "swing back to the GOP"! Take it from an 18 year old  who does not completely Identify with Democrats but more so than the Republicans. I voted for Obama and let me tell you I feel vindicated! I am on the right side. Your party has acted like buffoons since January. Republicans make Democrats look responsible smart people! Republicans are now just Obama hating, "birthers". You don't know how many middle and high schoolers that were angry about the uproar over his speech. Your party is just filled with crazy people who just want Obama to fail at all costs. there is no "swing to the gop" nor "buyers remorse"if anything we have tried to more as far away from the right as possible. I am proud of this President and have gone from an undecided right of center voter to the left and I have the Republican party to thank for that. &lt;br&gt;Democrats 2010!!!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">John</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 12 Sep 2009 03:09:56 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
