While Hillery busies herself dying her grey roots. Is she really running
a presidential race?

Trump will be easy enough to kill off when they want to but right now,
he is hyping up a race that would otherwise be largely ignored at this
point.
They want to get into that campaign money as soon as possible

I am not sure Rubio is really ready to be president. He really needs
to stop and take a breath when he is on TV.
He really looks bad.
We are, after all, a TV nation. You are what you look like on TV.
Bill or even GW, could have worked that sip of water, seamlessly into
his speech. (at the SOTU response he was excoriated over).
Marco looked like he was sneaking a drink at his Mom's party.

Rubio is just another right-wing crackpot, though a bit younger, I
suppose, than the other right-wing crackpots seeking the GOP nomination.
He's still pretty much a Tea Party boy. What is he, in third or fourth
place behind Trump, Carson, Fiorina? Well, at least he is ahead of
Luddite's former fair-haired boy, Jebbie.

As for Trump's plan ... it's basically raise the taxes on the rich
and lower the taxes for the middle class. Only difference between
the Dem's ideas and his is that he favors lowering taxes on business
as well to stimulate the economy and bring jobs back to the USA.
That's his concept anyway.

As much as we dislike paying more taxes, getting a handle on the debt
is more important and that means the taxes go to the debt, not to fund
more boondoggles.
The only way I support higher taxes is if it went straight to the debt
but I do think that should happen.
The idea of lowering them even more is ludicrous unless you lower
government spending more than the tax cut.
We are paying the lowest tax rate since before WWII.

I would like to see a candidate talking about the deficit.
We haven't had a president since Eisenhower who had a positive cash
flow. He actually put some money on the national debt. At this point,
simply reducing the rate the debt goes up would be refreshing.

I suppose I could be a typical selfish American and say "I will be
dead before we go belly up" but I have grandchildren and I am not even
confident that we can hold it together until I die. (statistically
~2025-30). I am sure SS/MC will not make it without drastic cuts.

True. But some of Trump's ideas should be imposed. Hedge Fund Managers
with $400 million dollar income pay at qualified dividend rates. But that
may be more a sign of how fouled up the tax code is than political payoff.

There are plenty of loopholes like this that can be plugged but it is
not really going to generate that much revenue when compared to a $580
billion deficit.
There are just not that many hedge fund managers making that much
money.

I wouldn't mind the IRS giving Shkreli a good spanking tho.

The ACA was a frankenstein monster "written by WellPoint lobbyists in

do with it. The house bill was tossed in it's entirety the day it was

All Pelosi did was implore her members not to change a comma in it

Drug addiction, people on medication for depression, racial strife and
political polarization have never been so prevalent. Individual choices
have given way to "Common Core" concepts and federal mandates. State's
rights have diminished (love to see that subject challenged in the
Supreme Court) with the Federal government becoming more and more
intrusive and controlling while demonstrating how incompetent it is.

Yup, the "progressive" way is really working miracles as it continues to
infect and destroy traditional values and expectations.

Maybe some of the principles and values of 19th century thinkers should
be reconsidered. Time to wake up and say "enough is enough".

There is absolutely no doubt that the progressives have destroyed the
ideals that once made the USA a mighty and strong nation, both
internally and in the eyes of the rest of the world. We are well down
the path of becoming another Greece, and the liberals are too myopic to see that.

I just hope that, as a nation, we'll be able to see that and turn away
from the destructive path the liberals have put us on.

the glorious days of the past, and you respond with a whine about the

It only proves you're wrong, but I already know that.


I love it when you guys post a link that says exactly the opposite of
your position.

From the wiki
referring to the house bill that was tossed in it's entirety
"The central changes that would have been made by the legislation, had
it been enacted, included the following:"

.... and goes on to list 2 pages of things the house bill had that were
not in the senate bill.

Do I really have to get the Thomas list of actions on the bill for you
guys AGAIN?
The first thing that happened after the bill was read into the senate
was it was totally replaced.
I trust the Library of Congress a lot more than a wiki writer who does
not understand how congress works.


I still ask, where is this "leadership"?
For the last 7 years, just about everything has come down to straight
party votes. That is not leadership, it is simply standing still and
letting party affiliation decide everything for you.


It took "leadership" and drive to get the Dems
together to pass the ACA, a monumental
accomplishment.


Leadership would have been to get some republicans on board.

They are just preaching to the choir.

complaint was that they were using specialized ER people to deal with
minor problems and my solution was a triage, outside he ER to separate
the non-emergency cases from the true emergencies. Then they could
shuttle them off to a cheaper walk in clinic on site. After a while
people would know to just go there first. That could be staffed with
vets who have medical skills we already paid for and the AMA will not
let them use.

FWIW, the hospital my brother was in, until yesterday, does use a triage approach. A
nurse sits with each arrival, takes vitals, listens to complaint, and decides where
the patient goes. Worked well when we took him in.

There's nothing unusual about that "nurse greeting" approach for
walk-ins. Our local hospital has used that approach for years.

I would go for pre-screening minor ER visits by former military
personnel who are at least registered nurses or, better, physician's
assistants. I first see a physician's assistant at my local medical
practice, and she is thorough.

NO the major differences are to many to list. The wiki just hit a
couple dozen. The point I was making is it was an entirely DIFFERENT
bill that the senate substituted the same day the house bill was read
into the senate.
Pilosi did nothing but fall on her sword when the senate bill was sent
to the house.


Oh, I get it now. Commas. You're talking about commas, in
different places. The nicks and cuts on the skinned cat.

Let me get this straight. Use "vets" to deliver health care.
Must be how they do they it everywhere else where less expensive
and better health care is delivered.
You are nuts.

My idea is to attack the cost of medical care, not to just create
another layer of bureaucracy like ACA and make the insurance companies
richer.


Somehow the rest of the world has solved the problem without
"vets." I suggest you look elsewhere for inspiration.
There's plenty of places that have gotten the problem in hand.


Too bad Joe Lieberman didn't join the choir.
Then we could get at the root of the problem, which is the
insurance industry, and exorbitant medical costs.


Your whole caucus was depending on Lieberman and nobody could change
his mind? It sounds like he was the only LEADER there.


Riiight. Leader of the insurance industry.
BTW, your "ideas" are why the GOP is kaput as "leaders."
