  • Here's a bit more of that passage you're using, T. The one you say is no different from the 1.20.09 bumper stickers some people had. ...Um, wouldn't the correct parallel to that be a bumper sticker that read "1.20.13"? Not one that means, "I hope Obama dies soon so someone else can take his office"?

    Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

    Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

    Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

    Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labor.

    Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.

    Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

    Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

    Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

  • The Jewish theologian Emil Fackenheim recommended that Psalm 109 be read as part of Holocaust remembrance ceremonies. That tells you what kind of psalm it is.

    That is what everyone will be doing after the liberals spend our nation into bankruptcy, and while you continue to cheer for a health care bill that is unconstitutional due to the fact it allows tax dollars to be spent on abortions.

    1 trillion dollars more debt placed upon the american people. dont forget the intrest.%

  • It's amazing that the CBO can come out and say that it will reduce the deficit by hundreds of billions of dollars, and you still get to say that it increases it by a trillion. But whatever.

    As for the Constitutionality, I'll happily take any bets on whether these reforms will be struck down as unconstitutional in federal court. Name your donation to Fisher House and you're on.

    I know in your world these ridiculous 10th Amendment arguments make sense, but in the real world they really don't.

    So name your price. I'll bet anyone.

    I guess if I put speculative and incorrect data into my calculator the answer itself would be correct?

    I thionk what is being said is that the program will run vastly over projections as soon as the numbers don't show up as "hoped" for.

    GPS says arrival at 5:30, but you stop to shit, nap and have dinner.

    Is the GPS still correct?

  • You wouldn't pay up, Heck, I think.

    You'd just disappear again.

  • Ha. No, I'll pay up for sure. If the bill ever gets overturned by the courts, I'll be sure to pop my head in whether I'm here regularly or not.

    Who wants in? Anyone?

    If you're so sure it's unconstitutional, let's lay some money down. $100? $500?

  • Up to 38 states are ready to take action. That's a lot of states.

  • Well, then name your bet.

  • good I hope these states really go beyond grand standing......

    Lets them lead be example.....

    No more funds for federal highway maintenence.

    No more Educational funding for Pell grants for their states

    No more Medicaid or Medicare for their states

    No more insurance backing for mortgages in their states

    do away with FBI and SEC, FCC, and every other federal oversight agencies for their states......

    let them administer all of these options themselves and fund themselves.... I hope Alaska who is the most dependent upon federal aide does this also....

    Hey I have an Idea maybe they should succeed from the Union.... o wait that happened before.....

    Stupid behavior not backed up by action.....

  • I'll bet you a bushel of tomatoes before, Heck.

    You wouldn't bet before.

    I'm callin ya out.

    You can't donate a bushel of tomatoes to charity from afar. When you lose, you have to donate money to Fisher House. That's how we play. Or you can name another charity. We could do St. Jude's if you like. Or Dana Farber.

    This is the second time you've tried to avoid a chance to put your money where your mouth is with that stupid bushel of tomato line. Give it a rest and man up.

    Name your price, name your charity, and you're on.

  • Even though Heck and I don't agree on much, I think I can vouch he would pay up. I'm not willing to bet on this one though.

  • Thank you cal.... I was being sarcastic to demonstrate the ridiculousness of the anti reform logic.... You just even further demonstated how ridiculous your position is...

    WOW, Obama was only pronounced 3 times in posts here. We are making progress children.

    You man up and accept MY challenge. Money donated isn't the only way to bet. forget Obamao's new rules for betting, and his hand up your psyche !

    I lose, I will donate a bushel of my best tomatoes to the local food bank, right down the street.

    Shucks, I will donate another one to a food bank of your choice, but it should be around Ohio.

    The last time, you also chickensheeted out like a yellow-bellied sapsmoocher.

    It's way way of insisting that you don't frame the terms of the bet. I haven't been working professionally

    for a year and a half. You have been? Nice way to insist on your terms of the bet.

    I figure to be working part time at the high end web site dev startup co. later this summer.

    Meanwhile, you wimp out on a challenge because it isn't your terms of payment.

    Meanwhile, if you did send a food bank a hundred bucks, they couldn't buy excellent quality tomatoes

    like we grow in ANY supermarket, anywhere.

    You lose, and YOU GO OUT and buy the best tomatoes at your local farmer's market, and donate them to a local food bank in your area.

    You said you'd bet anyone. But you Obamao-lied. 😒

  • And Sev, BUDDY, my sarcastic reply to your sarcastic reply showed the ridiculousness of your

    pouting about people who won't agree that the hc bill just passed, is a good bill. Truth is, FEW DEMOCRATS

    LIKE it, but they voted for it because they were told to, and wanted to put it forward for more changes

    and to make their base happy.

    Meanwhile, Stupak doesn't really care about unborn children. Just another liberal/progressive phony front.

    How about if Cal drives to Fisher House HQ with the tomatoes?

    And documents the trip?

    Why, I thought when Heck said "Name your price, name your charity, and you're on."...

    he really meant "Name your price, name your charity, and you're on."

    Heck, I will even take Steve with me, to donate the tomatoes. I will take him and let

    him film it with my very cool camcorder/camera.

    "Name your price, name your charity, and you're on" (oopsie, I can't afford a bet with Cal's bushel of

    excellent, homegrown tomatoes to a local food bank. I might break a nail"

    ROF,L !
