Seems history has the chance to repeat itself.<br /><br />Waiting for the racist card next!<br /><br />You know what I love, he was so hell bent to serve a second term.

Frankly, for people to be saying it is no big deal that 5-10% of people losing insurance coverage and most likely having a 40-100% in new insurance premium and deductable expenses just to pay for the alleged 30 Million who have no coverage is as insensitive a comment to the electorate people can make. So, to say you can sacrifice 10% of the public is basically my point to the above comment.<br /><br />Not that you will understand my perspective per your reply above, but, it is the extremist zealotry people like me and Dr Daviss are having to put up with, Left or Right in attitude. It isn't a black or white issue, but, the people hijacking this issue aren't able to understand grays!<br /><br />Again, it is what characterological people do.Joel Hassman, MDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-61868948345385972772013-11-04T04:21:31.930-05:002013-11-04T04:21:31.930-05:00""While I do not accept defeat easily as...""While I do not accept defeat easily as well, with a fixed 30+ percent supporting this President even if he admitted he would personally have 10% of the population terminated just to get costs acceptable, not willing to wage there will be substantial changes coming.""<br /><br />Dr. Hassman, do you have a direct link to the quote in which Obama said that about having 10% of the population terminated? Or are you just like the typical fox news commentators who are saying anything out of thin air to slander Obama any chance you get? <br /><br />Dr. Daviss, I admit I am not totally comfortable with the concept of forcing people to buy insurance. But I thought the concept behind this is if you don't, the risk isn't spread out wide enough which will cause rates to go sky high.<br /><br />Personally, I wanted single payer. But the chances of that passing were as great as my being able to paint like Monet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-49410478778039991812013-11-02T20:46:17.337-04:002013-11-02T20:46:17.337-04:00Cauliflower should be banned.

Dr D:<br /><br />I agree with the above, but, you are dealing with a rigid and inflexible group that make these laws and are hell bent in making the legislation be accepted as is. It is what characterological people do. While I do not accept defeat easily as well, with a fixed 30+ percent supporting this President even if he admitted he would personally have 10% of the population terminated just to get costs acceptable, not willing to wage there will be substantial changes coming.<br /><br />This AM on the WBAL talk show, a listener texted that Obama will be seen as the second best President in our history after Lincoln. Really, I think the listener should be considering who was the President just prior to Lincoln that facilitated the coming of the Civil War. Fostering such a deep division, not what I felt Lincoln was best known for, but, I don't have an allegiance to either side of this polluted aisle that is DC these days.<br /><br />Hey, by the way, what is your beef with cauliflower, not my favorite, but, are you advocating it be removed from society's choice as a vegetable?!<br /><br />Thanks for the reply. I assume we would consume in responsible quantity. I'll look into this Old Rasputin brand, but must say, an interesting name to a beer, per what Rasputin is know for in history. Myself, not much a stout guy, unless it is mixed with a lighter beer.<br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />Joel HJoel Hassman, MDhttp://cantmedicatelife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-28894558141847101892013-11-02T11:05:24.665-04:002013-11-02T11:05:24.665-04:00Joel, I won't be pigeonholed into a black-or-w...Joel, I won't be pigeonholed into a black-or-white you're for it or against it category (like the Dems/Reps are doing).
