This is a bonfire, and a big one, about migraine headaches.
But never mind that; watch the bobbling primitive:

5. And good luck thinking that this country is going to support a "more holistic way"
any time in our lifetimes.
Even if we were to "win" single-payer, it would still be all about the real profit-makers.
And that doesn't include "holistic".
Mainly, because we won't fight for it.
Wellness centers should be EVERYWHERE, and free to poor folk.
Chinese medicine should be available to everyone for whom it works better than western medicine.
And the list goes on.....
But, we won't demand it.

9. A Health Care System that just treats everything with another Rx is not really a health care system.
Everyone knows that.
Of course it will be nice to have a "system" that helps pay the tab, but it's not true health.

45. "Everyone knows that.' If everyone really knew that, we would have a much different system.

15. Why don't you demand some repeatable double-blind studies...
...for the safety and efficacy all of these various "holistic" approaches while you're at it?
Give me good data, and I'll support it. Give me anecdote and pseudoscience, not so much.

44. Any other orders you want to issue? Never mind that I'm homeless and have a full job just surviving
Not that it would matter to you.

47. I'm sorry about the bad circumstance you find yourself in...
...but I don't see how that has much of anything to do with choosing the most sensible health care options. What I'd like to see good free affordable health care for everyone, you and me and everyone. I just want know the tax dollars behind providing that care are being spent in a sensible and effective fashion. Some of what people call "alt med" might fit that bill, but a lot won't.
As for the idea that I'm issuing orders... give me a break. Or wait, is telling you to "give me a break" also and "order" being "issued"? And did I also just order you to wait when I said, "Or wait"?
Oh, God! I can't stop my dictatorial self!!!

50. Exactly, you knew nothing about me, but you TOLD me what to do.
Now you make fun of that.
I'm really sick of the authoritarian tone of DU.
People here complain so much about this same sort of thing from the RW, then laugh when they themselves do it.
If you want things to be different in this country, then start with yourself.
You can speak with a tone of compassion and understanding if you decide to.
If you decide to keep emulating THEM, then don't bother... I've had a stomach full.

65. You make it hard to speak to you with compassion...
...when you're being pretty stupidly pissy about the way you take plain old figurative speech.
I'd say "Give me good data" to anyone, and that's not a RW authoritarian "order". It means "If you'd want me to belief such and such, I'd have to see good data (whether you personally track it down or not)".
Am I supposed to give you some sort of break and treat what you say about medicine as automatically more believable simply because it might be tougher for you to back up what you say, therefore you get a charity benefit of the doubt?

72. Yes, I'm just being "pissy" because I'msick to death of the RW copycaytting.
Just like we feminists in the 60s and 70s were "being pissy" because we demanded to be treated as equals.
All of your defensiveness and rationalization just add to the picture.
You can choose to treat others with respect, and maybe build a little more peace, or you can choose to be harsh.
I just don't feel a need to bow to harshness anymore.
Given your penchant for authoritarian comebacks, I'm sure you will want the last word. Have at it, because I'm not reading more of your ugliness.
Bye now...

75. All of this because I used an ordinary conversational turn of phrase.
Of course, you've said your big drama queen goodbye now and can't respond, but I wonder what exactly an "authoritarian comeback" is?
If you were "demanding equal treatment" or the like, you'd get it. What you seem to be demanding is that people walk on eggshells around you, lest they set off bizarre sensitivities no reasonable person would expect or should have to plan for.

84. Does it ever occur to you that maybe these "ordinary" phrases ARE damaging??
Haven't minority groups complained through the years about phrases that the dominant culture takes for granted?
Are you so fragile that you can't look at yourself and see that maybe you could change some things for the better, for the sake of building a better society?
Take a deep breath, go back and look at y0ur harshh language, your demands, and your name-calling.
is that what you call "peace"?
And, yes, SENSITIVITY is a good thing.
As one writer said, "When somebody tells you you're "too sensitive", you know you're talking to an insensitive person."
So, belittle others while you pride yourself on your harshness, namep-calling, and insensitivity.
Welcome to my ignore list.

89. Has there been a thread - ever - where your "dire" circumstances have not been mentioned at least once?
Or where you have not been dismissive of other posters, such as "Not that it would matter to you."

Hey I thought Bobble head was homeless and got internet access from the public library? I don't know of any libraries that are open at close to 11 pm!

The bobbling primitive reminds the other primitives that they're all talk and no action when it comes to helping the homeless. Homeless people are supposed to just be happy that libs care, that should be all they really need to do, is just say they care.
I like the bobbling primitve. If I ever saw her, I'd give her a shiny, new nickel.

More from a clearly demented and useless cretin yet then they will all go on and on about what intellects they all are. :whatever:

Since when is a person who is homeless care about 'holistic' medicine?

On another note....Jesus this old broad has got to be the craziest dummie over there! Very anti-social and very immature for someone supposedly in their 80s! :whatever:

Well somebody sure woke up on the wrong side of the cardboard box this morning! What a pissy little person. Does she have no family? None of those "we feminists" willing to help a sister down on her luck? Of course, I wouldn't want that attitude in my house either.

How long has bozolink been homeless now?
You think she'd get a clue and take a bath and try to get a job by now.

She kills me !
She wears her homelessness like a badge of honor.
She's got that Katrina attitude. Like she's owed.

Shadeaux, absolutely. If she ever became not homeless, she would be so, so miserable. She's one of those people that even compassionate bleeding hearts would not be able to help.

(http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/funny-pictures-cat-is-stupid.jpg)
If that's the way she reacts to people on the internet, she's probably incapable of holing a job. Can you imagine working around someone like that?

Who lit her tampon string? :mental:

IOW, she's not happy unless she's not happy--and spreading her unhappiness.
What a ****in' loon. :mental: :mental: :mental: :loser: :loser: :loser:

Uh, how do you post to the DUmp every day if you're homeless? I don't see how that is possible. Isn't she supposedly living out of her car? You mean to tell me she has a laptop and Bluetooth? Maybe she ought to invest some money into a stinkin' room!
