My brother worked at Busch Gardens, they tested hair there. He shaves his head, so they had to collect his chest hairs, lol.
I'm sorry. Am I to understand that when you have a boner you like to imagine punching the shit out of Tom Bishop? That's disgusting.

“I cannot in good conscience vote for the Graham-Cassidy proposal. I believe we could do better working together, Republicans and Democrats, and have not yet really tried. Nor could I support it without knowing how much it will cost, how it will effect insurance premiums, and how many people will be helped or hurt by it. Without a full CBO score, which won’t be available by the end of the month, we won’t have reliable answers to any of those questions.

“I take no pleasure in announcing my opposition. Far from it. The bill’s authors are my dear friends, and I think the world of them. I know they are acting consistently with their beliefs and sense of what is best for the country. So am I.

“I hope that in the months ahead, we can join with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to arrive at a compromise solution that is acceptable to most of us, and serves the interests of Americans as best we can.”

Good for you, John McCain. I hope more people in Congress feel the same way. It's time to get over the past 8 years and start working on something.

Please don't be so naive.

Just about every other country on the planet has universal health care,  I don't see why the US hasn't managed to work out how to do it.   I suspect that big drug companies and insurance companies have deep pockets to buy politicians.

Zimbabwe is not the epicenter of medical research.
It can cost $2,000,000,000.00 to bring a treatment to market.

Nobody works for free.

Regulations and insurance are half the cost, but, who pays for that?

Not the rest of the worldwide free-wait-in-line medical schemes.

What's with you and your desire to identify as an American?   It's not "OUR" government.   

If you don't like big business controlling government, don't vote liberal, if you don't want the unions running things vote labour,  otherwise you could vote greens?

Me,  I don't like any of them, I vote independent.  At the moment they actually hold the balance of power anyway.

For our American Friends,  the Liberal party in Australia is the conservative party.  Although there are some that identify as "small l liberal".

Alternatively, you could support politicians that support single-payer healthcare, campaign finance reform, election reform, reversing Citizen's United, etc.

The whole point is that the people who can afford it are the ones that primarily finance healthcare and research mainly through taxes. There are many countries with universal healthcare that also excel in medical research.

For a few days, I was worried that our president had actually matured.  Thank god he got back on twitter and showed he is just as childish as ever. 

I'll never understand the stance of "show respect or else!" Respect must be earned continually. This ignores the fact that commenting on something like this is way below the office of the president.

For anyone not up to speed on American politics, Trump has criticized the NFL players for not standing during the anthem. He has called them sons of bitches, called on the commissioner and owners to fire any players who don't stand.

Sometimes when the president does dumb nonsense like this people accuse him of intentionally distracting the public from something horrible that he's trying to do. I usually doubt that. I think he's just a troll without a plan. This time I'm starting to think it might be intentional.

Did he actually call them sons of bitches? Not even a greek prime minister would overreact that much for players not standing up to the anthem, and that's saying a lot.

"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, out, he's fired. He's fired,'" Trump said. "You know, some owner is going to do that. He's going to say, 'That guy that disrespects our flag, he's fired.' And that owner, they don't know it [but] they'll be the most popular person in this country."

Sort of...indirectly.  Technically he was putting those words into the mouth of a hypothetical NFL coach that Trump envisions firing these players.  Trump said something like "Wouldn't it be nice if one of these coaches said, 'get that son of a bitch off the field, he's fired!'"

I know, it's splitting hairs.  Personally I was disappointed with all these players kneeling/not coming on the field.  Not to say that Trump didn't deserve the pushback from the players, but I just think the flag and the National Anthem should not be dragged into the hashtag "resistance" tantrums.

Of course I am not arguing against their right to do so--I just think it's in poor taste and is the wrong avenue for the message.

Anyway, Titans had a great game, so that's something

In Trump's defense, and this isn't much of a defense, this was said during one of his off the cuff, unscripted rallies.  He usually says a lot of deranged nonsense in them.  It's less serious than his Rocket Man speech to the leaders of the world.  That was scripted.



I'm kind of on the side of the kneelers.  I'm not a sports guy though so maybe I don't get it.  But as far as protesting goes I find this far preferable to blocking freeways and breaking windows.
