It seems like a redundant and unnecessary law to me. Last time I checked, fish couldn’t afford pedicures. Not to mention that they don’t have pedis to cure. Even in New Hampshire. Though if they do, it will really upset the Discovery Institute.
And yes, before you comment, this is an Emily Litella moment.
I hadn’t realized how big Stupak’s congressional district is. It’s the entire Upper Peninsula and the top of the Lower Peninsula. I would have thought that’s Republican territory. It may be now, if it wasn’t before.
I watched this last night, and didn’t know whether to be amused or appalled:
Apparently you need to water board him to get him to admit that the IRS is going to be involved in the individual mandate. And maybe he’d even stand up to that.
I’ll be generous, and assume that Jim Lehrer simply doesn’t know what he’s talking about, rather than deliberately lying to slander Republicans. But the media does this all the time. It’s all about the narrative, not the truth.
Want to know why it will cost somewhere between ten and a hundred times more for NASA to develop a launch system/crew module than SpaceX? Things like this:
The NASA Inspector General said that during the three-day conference in Baltimore in 2008, the 317 attendees snacked on soda, coffee, fruit, bagels and cookies at a cost of more than $62,000.
As the article notes, that comes to over sixty bucks per day per person. And the ironic subject of the conference? Procurement.
You know what? When you’re getting praise for your public policy from Fidel Castro, maybe you ought to rethink it. But of course, people who like this bill probably don’t have a problem with Fidel.
But good news for the country, come November. As the president is about to embark on his “put lipstick on the pig” tour, 55% of likely voters want the monstrosity to be repealed. Good luck with that running-on-health-care thing this fall, Dems.
