    I'm sure it's too much to hope for 220 mysterious deaths in DC in the next two minutes... some of that cool stuff like on the show Fringe, Warehouse 13 and others like that. Time to bear down harder on the Senate. Let's hope Coburn follows through on his plan.

    First that republican is from the great state of Huey Long.

    Second this is only passing the house, not the full congress so it isn't done yet.

    that would be a darn good start but we need 221. We need to start holding back all taxes then be ready to defend ourselves when the Feds come! Another man I would like to buy lunch for! I am proud of you LDB for speaking for many who are to afraid to say what needs to be said.

    I just watched Fringe that was recorded a few nights ago, the one where the guy turned to sand or dust or whatever it was. If it's scary to have a science fiction program based thought that couldn't possibly happen in any known universe then I guess I'm scary.

    Re: Healthcare reform bill passed

    1. There is no mention of lowering insurance premiums in this bill!

    2. There is no mention of a single payer program!

    3. They are going to punish people who can afford better insurance!

    4. This is just another "insurance mandate" that will line the pockets of insurance companies.

    5. I don't need it, I don't like it, and I definitely don't want it!

    Wink Re: Healthcare reform bill passed

    Dennis, are you ready to start a new business? Health insurance for expediters? Or how about becoming bounty hunters and kicking in the doors of those who fail to register for government mandated health insurance? lol! The possibilities are endless! Thanks Barry!
