Sounds right, but don't tell Waugs. If he said it, it was just a mistake.

If Tony Snow had said it, it would be a "despicable lie."

He's so fair and balanced!

You're being very disingenuous in your rhetoric, waugs. Your own definition of not voting is "not there to vote", huh? Smooth.

I could repeat "I'm not begruding you .... etc." and follow it with "Don't recycle bs you read in an internet post from the Wash Post!" and be just as honest as you.

You probably know that what you're saying in the above post is specious. I'll just watch and smile at it.

to REPEAT to you, seems you wish to critize Snow for "lying" (perhaps a mistake)but it's okay for Hillary to lie deliberately.

Cute, very cute. Peddle it elsewhere. Not buying, here.

Maybe because I personally am acquainted with people who lived in Canada who described what they had to live with.

Maybe because I believe ours, warts and all, is better than any others out there right now. And I'm certain that what "they" (politicians) have in mind will be extremely flawed and much worse than anything you can imagine.

The voters here are thinking with their pocketbooks and their greed in the forefront. I'll get something free that now costs money, pant, pant. And there are all those "free lunches" out there just waiting to be plucked from the trees, you think?

One simple fact that I've learned in my 70 years, there are no free lunches. Another fact is that government control of ANYTHING means poor service, if not poor then no longer offered. If offered, then we'll put your name on a list and when your turn comes ....

The minor realism involved in passing a budget in a country where new taxes are reviled, means that increased taxes will be avoided and medical services will BY NECESSITY be rationed, limited, or terminated. I know I would not like that. I like choosing my same old doc.

Guess that covers it.

First, the WashPost is 2nd only to the NYT for its bias so to consider it true and Tony Snow false says something.

Second, if you go back several pages, you'll notice that Obama "did not vote" more times than he voted, or so it appeared without doing an actual count.

So, is "not voting" anything like "present"?'

Neither is representative of the voters who sent him there. And don't misunderstand, when he votes "blank", that is probably a good thing for the country.

What, no choice for those of us who hate eggs?

In central Oregon this afternoon, the snow was blowing horizontally, according to my kid who lives there. Said their porch was blocked by snow and the driveway was fast getting to that point.

She doesn't like this "global warming" stuff...says it has been very cold this winter and global warming isn't working very well. I think they should try using a heater instead.

In the United States Senate, you know .. that place where he's paid to vote but doesn't.

You really believe he is from (was born in) the village of Crawford? Crawford isn't a village and he's not from there. He bought there after becoming President.

I do not like your assessment of McCain because it is flawed and one-sided. It is not surprising a Democrat doesn't like him.

At least when he says he was under sniper fire, you can believe him.

Oh wait, that was just a mistake.

Proves Hillary is too old to be president???

If you really believe the treatment in socialize medicine states is superior, then you've been hoodwinked by the media and pols who claim that to be true. Would be very revealing if you could accurately measure the relative benefits of that system in Canada or G.B.
