^ Something like that I'd think you'd have to have bronzed first.

At the very least for Posterity's sake.

Ah Victor, I do have Insurance Licenses, . Everyday people , young people get turned down for Health insurance because they have Rhemetoid Arthritis and Kidney stones or are overwieght but you think it's ok for peope having Anal same sex or shooting Heroin to have Coverage even thoug it will cause your premiums to go up 25 to 30 per cent as it has in DC and California.
My Heart bleeds for the unfotunate but not when they make choices of risk..

Actually Jack, I don't give a crap about people with aids. you want to have unprotected sex, or shoot up drugs you take the risk. Let them buy their own medicine or die.

But I feel the same way about diabetics, cancer patients and whatnot.

People do game the insurance system, I don't argue that. But that isn't a "gay" thing. Straight people get married simply so one member of the couple can use the others health insurance, hell, at one time i discussed that with my girlfriend. This isn't a valid reason to deny an entire class to marry, unless you want to deny straights too.

"This isn't a valid reason to deny an entire class to marry, unless you want to deny straights too."

Gay's are now a "class"? I thought they were just like everybody else?

Silly me.

Giving them a "right" that has never been had before, pretty much in the history of mankind, somehow doesn't wash with me.

You can make legal arrangements however you want. You can take vows in front of your god or partner, that's fine by me. But it isn't a union defined as a "marriage." That had traditionally been between 1 man and one woman. Even in ploygamist sects, a marriage is between a man and a woman - the women are not married to one another.




I take issue when the word "class" is thrown around. This is a "later" edition to the societal lexicon that does this country no good.

victor was referring to people with AIDS and drug users.

"86% of the country is convinced this country is in the dumper". Where does 86% come from?

"people go to bed hungry." What percentage are in the US illegally?

"people die because they can't afford a doctor." No hospital can turn away an emergency patient.

"gas prices are so high, most people can barely afford to go to work" More than 50% of workers can barely afford to go to work?

How will Obama solve these "problems"?

" People do game the insurance system, I don't argue that. But that isn't a "gay" thing. Straight people get married simply so one member of the couple can use the others health insurance, hell, at one time i discussed that with my girlfriend."




VIC , NOW THAT WHAT I CALL ROMANCE !

Rick Said: me, push buttons, you make the joke, no?

My reply: Ha ha no Rick you never push people's buttons, never, not happening lol.

Rick: actually the only button i push is the one i started to push and will continue to push, stop.

Reply: Interesting

Rick: but the bush elevator continuous it's downward spiral
as he makes his world tour along with his hundreds of secret service agents to protect his worthless ass.

Reply: Well we all have our issues don't we?

Rick:i know he may not have any influence on the price of gas, but is that any reason not to blame him.

Reply: It does get a bit tired after a while. But I appreciate your humor.


Rick Said: i have already blamed him for some of my surgeries, so why not the price of gas.

Relpy: The difference is Bush is responsible for your surgeries ;-).

Rick: the other button i push lightly and that is the christian religion button. i don't push the button for any other religion, because no other religion attempts to influence my life.

Reply: This depends on how you define religion. There are many moral forces out there attempting to tell us how we should live. Please go to a PETA or Green Peace meeting etc. and I think you might see my point. Christians are some what marginalized in most western societies. It is the left leaning utopianisms I fear the most as they appear to wield the most power at least for now (I do fear right leaning utopianists as well. I believe as history plays out the Islamic radicals will be more of a threat to our way of life than Christendom. You may not feel this in your life as Islam is not a strong force in America at least not yet.
Rick: religions go about their business tending to their followers as they should and minding their own business.
Reply: What religions traditional or otherwise do this? The very nature of human beings with strong beliefs is to express these ideas to others. If they have no desire to do so then one could ask what worth are such beliefs? I think the right to speech should be tolerated for freedom's sake. Freedom has its price (you or I listening or turning away) and its limits (No compulsion to comply unless agreed upon by the chosen system of government(another complex arrangement open to change)).
Christians have good reason to think they are one of the last persecuted minorities this country. They might also be one of the last things standing between us and the end of our country as we know it. As a country looses a sense of Itself, morality, history, heart, duty, and purpose it fails and falls. And whether we like to admit this or not Christian concepts helped form the bedrock of America. Now before you go off on me understand I did not say Christians are the sole source or the only part of the foundation for our countries principles (There were other. ideas/ forces that played their roles as well just read: Adam Smith, John Locke, Jefferson, Adams, Hamilton etc.). I am just saying that Christianity of one form or another played an important role. And to say they should just go back to their churches and attend to their own is a bit short sighted. Why because for all of the faults many Christians have they also can be the most generous and kind of folks, ready to take up a cause and creating balance in a society wishing to be free of all traditions, even those that keep us safe and secure. I think you might find Christians provide a bit of balance to the equation, that is if you take a step back and look around you: just food for thought.


Rick:as far as herfing together, you are correct. we would enjoy each other's company.

Reply: No doubt, but I believe you are on the west coast and I am in the east. Perhaps at a big herf one day, I would look forward to it.

Q

"putzman"

This coming from the guy who condemns others as being "little children". Yeah, I haven't heard this since...oh...elementary school.

Consequently, 5th grade was the highest level Rick completed. This is the reason why he was an unsuccessful door-to-door salesman, and eventually went into being a second-rate insurance salesman. And it seems he sucked at doing that as well.

Maybe you should go back into the military where you "accidentally" lost people's medical information.



"86% of the country is convinced this country is in the dumper."

If they listed to people like you, 86% of this country would have hung themselves by now.



"people go to bed hungry."

Really? Get out!

These same people also collect their own urine, and talk to people who aren't there. (Someone might want to check Rick's house to see if he's got a urine collection going...his own, not those of his pets. They use his carpet.)


"people die because they can't afford a doctor."

That's 100% bull.

People go to emergency rooms all the time and get healthcare for free. You, Rick, are a liar. Either that or you're stupid. I'm betting it's a perfect storm of both.



"gas prices are so high, most people can barely afford to go to work."

Well then maybe you should start drilling and refining oil, selling it on the open market, and help the situation out.

Oh, wait, I forgot - you could barely sell insurance.



"you focus on gay marriage and blow jobs."

No, actually I don't. Everybody else seems to, though. And it appears that this is the first thing you cued-in on.

Then again, when both of your hands reject you, I guess you're left to idle fantasies.



"you think big. solve the same-sex marriage delllemma and prevent men from getting a BJ and you have solved all our problems."

You don't think at all. That's part of your problem. It's also why your moronic posts are so amusing.



"god bless tiny ptuzman."

Thanks. You're kinda screwed, though.

Hey Rick, while we're on the subject of God, why don't you lecture the rest of us about being Jewish. You know, that religion whose central focus is a omnipotent diety that you could care less about?

If there is a legacy that you one day leave behind, it is that one can bumble their way through life without having to rely on intelligence, talent, manners, or even good genetics. "Bumble" being the integral word in that sentence.

You know, the sad part is that they baby in the picture probably has a better grasp of reality than RICKAMAVEN does.

Aside from that, there are similarities. Both use baby-speak, both wear diapers, and so on...

Again, no you did not *finally* clarify things for me.

I'm not asking about a murderer's "rights".

I'm not commenting on the "cruel and unusual punishment" of the death penalty. Truth be told, I think that rotting in prison is a much worse fate than death.


Murder is taking someone's life with forethought and intention. Like I said in my last post, it is the premeditated taking of someone's life. Whether it is done by a woman aborting a fetus or the state executing someone, by definition it is the same thing.




Webster's dictionary:

1. To deprive of life, animal or vegetable, in any manner or by any means; to render inanimate; to put to death; to slay.
