sure sounds good, my heart feels happier when I read it, the little birdies are chirping .....
but wait,,,,,that means people who are on the "new" insurance plans get something I dont? Potential dead beats who suck off society get "free" screenings?
So.....all this demand is going to be handled how? I'll tell ya - when your kid is sick and you need to get them to a doctor...YOU"LL WAIT while some person that smokes dope all day and watches Oprah gets screened for heart disease.
And how will this be payed for? They wont raise the rates on the "new" plans, those people will barely be able to pay them. They'rr raise it on YOUR plan, the working class sucker! Everyone thought this socialsim thing was a crazy right wing conspiracy.....
love this part -
One of the services provided under the new guidelines, obesity screenings, directly impacts the first lady's signature issue, the Let's Move campaign to prevent childhood obesity.
How about we just stop being politically correct and while I drop my kids off at school I just say "Hey fatty" (substitute lard a$$, chubbo, porky, blimp, etc.) to all the "obese" kids, saving not only inusrance costs but their lazy parents ride to the doctor for a "screening"
The death panel is starting to sound like a good idea. Especially if they can include the obese (not me though, I'm just big boned).
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
they are going to need to order doctors and insurance companies to provide free counseling to the Obamarons for their imminent suicidal depression, after the realization finally sets in for these people who have been duped, first by the New Deal, Great Society, Al Gore/Global Warming...and then Barry Obama/Hope and Change...and the realization that all of the goodies the dems have been selling them in return for votes all of these years was a ponzi scheme crock and all that they've come to rely on is bankrupt and can no longer sustain them ..these poor demented souls are going to need a lot of therapy....

I couldn't agree more.
The early shadows of the nanny state cast their dark and ugly gloom when they clamored for kids to eat vegetables in the 1980's. Like where does ketchup come from?
Then in the 1990's they denied our children their GOD GIVEN RIGHT to tasty sodas between classes. High fructose corn syrup is made from CORN you know, corn is very healthy and without it we'd have no HEARTLAND IN AMERICA.
Now it's the great diabetes SCANDAL designed to seize individual freedoms in the name of "heath" but really just another notch towards a SOCIALISTIC STATE.
As a responsible parent of a 6 year old who's healthy, tall and thin I don't know what some of these people are thinking.

Just get better DNA!

Parental responsibility, not the governments responsibility. See your response to Fishbones in the racism thread. Treat people as equals and they'll learn self respect. People with fat kids will always fat kids.
You and PaulS are to blind or too ignorant to see that this is another "handout" by the government, forcing insurance companies to offer a service. Now heres the part - SOMEONE HAS TO PAY FOR IT and that someone is YOU! The working American. Insurance Cos will raise there rates to cover this!
ROI? Are you kidding me? When you have deep pockets you dont need one, you just keep taxing and taxing and taxing!
Like I've said before, your one of the least classy people here.
C'MON....coming from you??? one of the least informed people here ...that means absolutely nothing...beyond the admission that you are infact...an "Obamoron" you can't stand the fact that I force you to look at the truth...
"covering preventative"??? you mean, the Obama government forcing private companies, insurance companies, employers...whoever...and ultimately the people paying taxes to "cover preventative" with no co-pay charged... the next thing you need to do is to force/mandate that the people actually to go and get their "free preventative somebody else paid preventative care" on a regular basis or be fined for this to be truly effective...there is really no end to what they can impose and force on the public now...thanks Obamorons
gotta give you guys credit for persistence, you cling desperately to an insane and demonstrably failing and failed ideaology...but you have the little talking points well rehearsed and continue to mock and ridicule those that point out that with facts you are infact socialists and worse (a little honesty would be nice if you are going to continue to bark like a socialist) ...I think that's Rules for Radicals #5 or so...
Rule 5: Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It’s hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage

Why who do I insult here? Anyone who knows me, says I'm low key and even tempered. It seems like your always insulting people. I'm just glad I was raised never to have the hate you (and a couple others) seem to exhibit every day.
I'm one of the least informed why b/c I don't cut and paste all day like you
I just shake my head when I see many of your posts.

for the record, you often take a condescending and insulting tone. And unfortunately live up to the liberal stereotype.
Other libs out here at least try to have a dialog.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA....he can dish but is WAAAY touchy
I cut and paste to back up assertions rather than just repeating tired talking points like"some"...would you prefer video?

Your prob. right. I come here and most of the time I just see insults so I say why bother trying to have a dialog when its frequently met w/insults.

As I said, I don't think I insult people the way you do (although I agree with Jimmy, I'm prob. condescending. Anyone can find a c&p from a biased site so why bother?

yes, you should stop it with the hatey-hate-hater insults...
why c/p?....anyone can throw out a talking point with no facts to back it up...so why bother?
i come across as an arrogant a$$ but usually dont think I am insulting or condescending
i dont just drop one line insults. I usually try to make a point although I am usually unsuccesful
The thing about tone on a board is...if someone posts something you don't agree with, in your head it gets played back with its own "Soundtrack".....usually in a negative way.
and you may come across as an arrogant a$$....but you're our arrogant a$$
"If you're arguing with an idiot, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."
How does someone have a "Tone" in a typed message?
Plagiarized from Wickipedia (but not cut and pasted, so presumably ok and suitable for PaulS to read):
"Tone is a literary technique that is part of a composition, which encompasses the attitude toward the subject and toward the audience implied in a literary work. Tone may be formal, informal, solemn, somber, playful, serious, ironic, condescending, or many other possible attitudes. . . . All pieces of literature, even official documents, have some sort of tone."
When PaulS accuses ScottW of being one of the least classy people on this site, that has a formal, serious and condescending tone.
