Participant[quote=flu][quote=walterwhite]Three cats and adog w bad hip dysplasia. Cheapest foodno medical care. My policy is if you get sick you either recover or die[/quote]
That to me sounds like Darwin survival of the fittest in practice. You know when my daughter’s fish got sick 6 months ago, I ended up spending like $40-50 on antibiotics. Friends just told me I should have flushed the sick ones down the toilet and bought new ones at $3/fish. Somehow, I just couldn’t do it….[/quote]
I’m guessing there are no aquatic life death panels at your house, flu.
Your actions demonstrate a complete absence of the involvement of rational thought processes. But, as a woman and as a mom, I’m really touched by what you did for your little girl (I guess that hormonal glitch is why there are still so few of us broads in CEO positions…..). What a good dad you are!
Okay, I just gotta ask. Did the fish survive?

Participant[quote=flu]Come on folks. Back on topic, please…Let’s talk about Christine O’donnell and any dirt you can find…
This one definitely has an interesting spin to it

“I had a one night stand with Christine Odonnell…(photos included)…”
Three years ago this week, an intoxicated Christine O’Donnell showed up at the apartment of a 25-year-old Philadelphian and ended up spending the night in his bed. Here’s his story—and photos—of his escapade with the would-be Delaware senator.
Family values, anyone?

Does it make any difference, flu? Look at what’s come out about this candidate in the last two weeks alone, some of it out of her own mouth. Her poll standings? According to two back-to-back Monmouth University polls, the race has gone from Coons 57% and O’Donnell 36% two weeks ago to Coons 51% and O’Donnell 41% this past week. It must have been her impressive debate with Chris Coons at Widener Law School where she so ably demonstrated her interpretation and knowledge of constitutional amendments that swayed some of the previously unbelieving.
I don’t recall, in my lifetime, a candidate that is less qualified to hold any public office, much less that of a United States Senator. She is not only intellectually bankrupt, but she has no idea of just how clueless she is, and she shows absolutely no concern about making improvements in this area (after all, God is apparently her copilot). She has no documented business experience, yet there exists a wealth of evidence that shows her to be, at the least, financially incompetent, and, at worst, engaging in criminal behavior by diverting campaign funds for her personal expenses. On top of that, there exists hours of footage of Christine making outlandish statements that she states are backed up by “proof”, but, in reality, are culled from a never-ending stream exiting out her ass. I’m fairly sure that, if I flipped through the pages of the DSM-IV, Christine’s face would be smiling up at me from quite of few of the pages that detail symptomatology of some fairly serious psychiatric disorders.
I’m not blaming Christine. After all, from the beginnings of time there have been people with crippling delusions concerning their talents and potential. No, I blame the 50% of the voting populace of the state of Delaware who will, in all likelihood, vote for her on Tuesday, caring so little for this country and what it stands for that they will waste their vote – a privilege that has been paid for by the blood of others – on this individual who not only is completely ill-equipped to handle the job, but who also has the potential to do serious damage to a nation that is already at the breaking point. But I primarily blame the media – not Fox News, but the mainstream “liberal-minded” (yeah, right!) media – who continue to treat people like Christine O’Donnell as though they were serious-minded qualified candidates that were on equal footing with all of the other candidates, conferring upon them an imprimatur of legitimacy. My question is not “Why are able-bodied, reasonably-educated citizens voting for Christine O’Donnell?” but “When are the media going to get out there and do their job?” which is to expose these candidates for what they really are.
But as for coming up with more dirt on Christine O’Donnell, count me out. I don’t need to be any more depressed than I already am.

Priceless, Concho! And that brings us full circle back to the post with which I began this subthread (October 24): the reason that some of us may have a bit of distrust in people who claim to be working “in the name of the Lord”.

I think, as is the case for any of these newer policy types (the afore-mentioned pet health policies, nursing home insurance, extended care insurance), the risk pools are fairly small and tend to be made up of policyholders who are either predisposed toward illness, or have a history of serious illness/medical conditions. So if you come across a policy, I’d check the fine print very carefully, especially the pre-X condition language, and take a close look at the company’s reputation and history of claims reimbursement.
