    Have you watched the show? The GP is correct in his assumption.

  3. Re:What's in it? on Landmark Health Insurance Bill Passes House · · Score: 1

    So wouldn't it be logical to remove the illegals, and hand those jobs to actual citizens? It would reduce unemployment below 5%.

    If only you could convince your fellow conservatives who are business-owners to stop hiring them. No jobs for illegals = no illegals.

    I highly recommend getting a book called "The Okinawan Program" which is a study of some of the healthiest people on the planet and their diet and lifestyle.

    This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the U.S. Department of Energy.

    I then took a shower in the clean water provided by a municipal water utility.

    After that, I turned on the TV to one of the FCC-regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration determined the weather was going to be like, using satellites designed, built, and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

    I watched this while eating my breakfast of U.S. Department of Agriculture-inspected food and taking the drugs which have been determined as safe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

    At the appropriate time, as regulated by the U.S. Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the U.S. Naval Observatory, I get into my National Highway Traffic Safety Administration-approved automobile and set out to work on the roads build by the local, state, and federal Departments of Transportation, possibly stopping to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank.

    On the way out the door I deposit any mail I have to be sent out via the U.S. Postal Service and drop the kids off at the public school.

    After spending another day not being maimed or killed at work thanks to the workplace regulations imposed by the Department of Labor and the Occupational Safety and Health administration, enjoying another two meals which again do not kill me because of the USDA, I drive my NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to my house which has not burned down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and Fire Marshal's inspection, and which has not been plundered of all its valuables thanks to the local police department.

    And then I log on to the internet -- which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration -- and post on Freerepublic.com and Fox News forums about how SOCIALISM in medicine is BAD because the government can't do anything right.

  7. Re:Italian justice on Murderer With "Aggression Genes" Gets Reduced Sentence · · Score: 1

    Italy is crazy, it's like a country from South America transplanted to southern Europe.

    Then again, I have a theory that counties closer the the equator are almost always more corrupt/illogical than those at higher latitudes, but I digress.

    Based on your message, you are a very good person.

    All I can say is that Jesus never separated loving God from loving other people.

    Now all you need to do is separate your love of other people from your love of God, and you'll attain an even higher level of self-actualization.
