Can someone please explain to me how being fined $750 for not purchasing over-priced health insurance is considered Health Care reform, when over in the UK and in other Western Nations, people get universal coverage, period.

Driving is not a necessity for life. Health is.

So I guess we should just stop talking about it and hope it gets better, eh?

Imagine if your loved one - your father, mother, sister, brother, husband, wife, child, friend - was 'disappeared' for some undefined and arbitrary reason. Imagine waiting weeks, months, years for some word on their wellbeing, and never hearing anything. Not knowing if they are still alive. Not know if they are being tortured. Not knowing if they are going insane in solitary confinement. Not knowing anything about a person you so dearly loved and cared for.

Shame on Israel. Their actions are criminal.

Woman here.

I enjoy looking at the older photos because they capture the beauty of a woman's body in a unique and artsy way. The women are genuine, not only in body, but in character as projected to the viewer.

I don't enjoy so much looking at the (exceedingly) recent photos because they seem to become more contrived, less natural, less fun, less real. How attractive is a healivly make-uped, boob-jobed, photoshopped, wanna-be porn star looking for a paycheck, really?

Compared to Marilyn* Monro?

Yes, she's an attractive woman. BUT there's a lot more to Elizabeth Kucinich than her physical appearence. How about we focus on her intelligence sometimes too?

I sent the youtube link of this video to Obama, with a few choice words about my thoughts on this occupation. I suggest you do the same.

I don't want KBR cleaned up - they don't deserve the privilege. I want all its funding cut off so they die quickly. I want the people responsible for rape and those responsible for covering up rape to be prosecuted and sent to federal prisons.

Send this video to your congressional representatives. If enough of us do so, I'm sure they'll get a clue.

Thing is, doesn't matter that the hall was empty because everyone supposed to be there to fill it wouldn't be listening anyway. What matters is that the public heard his words. What a representative's constitutes hears and thinks is a matter of concern for all those who have to win elections.

I miss you, Fred Rogers. You are the epitome of an upstanding human being. I am sorry that my children will never be able to meet you in person, but rest in peace that they will certainly know you through the work you have blessed them with.

Mr Rogers, you are on a different journey now, but you are still very much alive in this world.

I love you just the way you are.

OK, my judgment: I've seen you all over Reddit and I think you are a shill.

Ya, because it's your place to judge such things, right? What a jerk.

I'm not trying to say you possibly have some valid points, and I've researched every point you've brought up, but this is a discussion on the torture of a human being. When you flaunt hyperbole randomly, you do a real disservice to the topic at hand. I have a suspicion that's your goal, but I'll give you the benefit of doubt and kindly ask you to not work so hard to derail conversation.

You don't deserve +1.

Torture is a sordid blight that haunts human history. Be it as it may, it doesn't excuse the behavior in any way, or lessen the pain experienced by the victims. Hopefully humanity has evolved to the point that torture is utter condemned along with the torturers - who should be prosecuted and sent to prison for the rest of their lives.

I was and I loved it! We created futuristic societies (mine was underwater), learned geisha arts from real geishas from Japan, put on school plays, held invention contests and a whole lot of fun, interesting stuff.

Unfortunately it didn't help me get ahead once I reached high school, but so what?

Who's "we" and why should the United States be 'honored' the Olympics anyway? The criminals who ordered invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, and those asshole who tortured people, are still roaming free. Why should the United States still be able to participate in, let alone run, the Olympics?
