................

This must be about the millionth time I’ve been screwed by my government. And yes, I’m referring to the health insurance sham, Hopelesshagen, Afghanistan and etcetera. You’d think I’d have learned to like it by now. But no matter how many times they’ve done it, no matter how utterly predictable it is or from how many miles away it can be seen coming, it just never gets any easier to take. I am, and have been, sick to my stomach.

It’s funny how after every major betrayal I get flooded with requests for money, like ‘we gotta keep fighting! Give us money to stand up for the American people! Hurry!’ They kick us in the teeth, piss on our heads and then promise to stop it if we’ll ‘send more money now!’

‘We’re fighting for you!’

Shameless ****ing bastards.

5. Very sad--because it's true. n/t
   
Kill the bill.


Forcing people to buy insurance is no more the answer to a failed health care system than forcing people to buy houses is the solution to homelessness.

Too bad it took you DUmmies so long to realize it.

7. Just why is it that?
   

Why is it that the Obama Administration and the Senate Democrats are always willing to fight for things they say they don’t like?

Stuff like a HCR giveaway bill to health insurance companies, retroactive immunity for Telcos in the FISA Amendments Act, trillons in bailout money for too-big-to-fail financial institutions, and much more.

And why is it that the Obama Administration and the Senate Democrats are never willing to fight for things they say they do like?

Stuff like a Public Option, EFCA, Dawn Johnsen as OLC head, repeal of DOMA, repeal of DADT, re-instituting Glass–Steagall, and many, many more.

Just why is it that they’ll fight for stuff they claim not to like, and won’t fight for stuff they claim they do like?

Just why is it that?

12. it is rather telling that the one person who acted honorably and like
   
He belonged to the Democratic Party of Martin Luther King Jr, The Kennedys and Wellstone --he isn't even an Demcorat, but Indie Senator Sanders of Vermont.

It is rather telling that the only senator you like is an avowed socialist.

19. Its like a bad carnival scam, or the casino.
   
At the carnival, they rig the games so that you almost win, and keep coughing up the money.
The casinos are the same.
The almost win... just a few more dollars... keep on playing.
By the way, that is hustling on HOPE....coincidence?
Not to a good con.

Oh Hell. It's the perfect con to keep you DUmmies voting for them.

Looking for advice on something from my friends here on DU-and maybe it will help others as well
 
My X finally got contacted by a TV show that helps people find their birth parents. My X was adopted and she wants to find her birth mother/father.

She has Parkinson's disease and two brain cysts now (Arachnoid cysts, before she had only one). We have a daughter together and if you have ever followed my posts over the years you know how hard this has all been for me.

One of the big reasons she, and I, would like to find her birth Mother/Father is to find out if there are genetic issues which could affect our daughter.

Yesterday she got a call from a TV show that helps find your birth parent(s), only catch is that it costs about $700. I am willing to pawn my car, sell my laptop, whatever it takes to help her get the money (and it is a legitimate program, had a friend use them once but did not know about the fee until now).

From the call she got she learned that one of the things they do is fly out a team to where she was born to scour the records available (usually from Libraries that have copies of local papers on microfiche) and that they have a 100% rate of finding birth parents (now whether or not they want to talk to you, etc, is up for grabs).

I will give up my unemployment check next week, pawn what I can, etc to help her out - but before I do all that I wanted to turn to my friends here on DU and see what ideas you have, your experiences....Is there a cheaper/better way to pursue all of this?

I cannot get to the library there where she was born, else I could do some of this research myself. I did call my local Library and they can order some of it. Overall it would just be easier to get the money and have someone else do it all - but before I do so, does anyone here on DU have experience in finding their real parents and what did you do to find them?

It looks to me as if the crooked tale primitive is setting up another fund-raiser.
apres moi, le deluge

Milo Yiannopoulos "It has been obvious since 2016 that Trump carries an anointing of some kind. My American friends, are you so blind to reason, and deaf to Heaven? Can he do all this, and cannot get a crown? This man is your King. Coronate him, and watch every devil shriek, and every demon howl."
