    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    "Newman didn't do any bombing". That makes him ok, then, huh? He is PRESIDENT of the group that did bomb clinics, and continues to use the harassment methods I listed, and more - but you think he's an upstanding citizen? The reason Sullenger isn't an official part of CMP is her pesky little...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    I don't buy into the idea that women & minorities vote Democrat so much, cause if they did, the Republicans would be an endangered species. :rolleyes: Anyway, they [the Repubs] can continue to disregard the needs of half the population, [and the fiscal consequences of women failing to get...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    http://robertreich.org/post/85556159055 Maybe facts like these have something to do with Obama's resolve. Also the fact that many [maybe even most] PP locations don't even do abortions - the one I went to for years didn't. Also too, the women who have used PP will defend it fiercely, because...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    Hard to answer, as they aren't truthful about much - they changed their purpose from 'biomedicine charity' to 'a group of citizen journalists' after the IRS began looking at their actual vs purpose for tax exempt status. But the Secretary of CMP is Troy Newman, who is also President of...

    The Trump Card...

    That's what he does best: self promotion. It's how he's leveraged the money & reputation of his father [a wealthy NY real estate developer] into a multibillion dollar empire.Excellent chops for a luxury real estate/development dealmaker, but for POTUS? Moot's dog Lyla would do a better job -...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    They apologized for the "tone" of Dr N's comments, which sound callous and unfeeling to anyone/everyone who hasn't any experience in working with situations that people often consider "gruesome". Which is most of the gen pop, and Congress & the Senate, as well. It's "disturbing" if you aren't...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    What insurance companies [and the Obama administration] consider "affordable" is out of reach for many lower income women. An insurance plan has deductibles, which deter women from getting preventive care [mammograms, Pap smears] because they can't cover the out of pocket. Many doctors [most of...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    I had to use a source other than the right wing sites you prefer, as none of them mentioned the investigations that cleared ACORN, naturally. After all the dust cleared, there were some ACORN workers found guilty of various charges [many turned in by ACORN itself], but how many private...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    Obamacare doesn't provide any services, it merely requires insurance plans to cover them. That doesn't equal the convenience and affordability of PP clinics, from the perspective of one who has used both for care. Even when I worked at a major hospital and had great insurance, I found the...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    50 years of liberal ideology has brought us to a place where women no longer die from botched abortions. Do you seriously want to go back to that? Because if abortion is illegal, that's what will happen. Also, the need for abortions will increase immensely, without Planned Parenthood to provide...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/john-atlas/acorn-vindicated-of-wrong_b_612265.html?page=3&show_comment_id=50563828 ACORN was a victim of the same tactics as PP is experiencing right now - and considering the key involvement of James O'Keefe, that's not surprising. It's all about provoking...

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    I'll get back to the ACORN thing [need more research], but seriously: if you can't see the difference between a candidate secretly taped saying things "among friends" that are quite different that what he says/said to the voters, and a doctor secretly taped by someone who deliberately lied to...

    Getting back into the Expedite Business!!!

    1. I have no idea [never bought a truck], but if you need to, you can always sell them privately and use the proceeds towards a new [ish] truck. 2. To the best of my knowledge, once the truck is accepted, the age is no longer a consideration, provided that it passes inspections, looks...

    Talking money with dispatchers.

    If you feel the need to ask for "an extra $100 per load", and to "raise the rate for each load", then I think you're either driving for a lowball carrier, [cheapskates!] or you simply want more, more, more, no matter the rate offered. Either way, it doesn't sound like a good fit between you &...

    Just because you did it

    I am 100% positive that a lot more than "one in a million" people have caused the death of another person, and been judged not guilty. And most of them, you'd agree with. People believe they know their rights, legally, but if so, they wouldn't need lawyers.

    American is now offensive

    Maybe, but in this case, they said that up front, on the guide - the one that was around for 2 years before a blogger made fun of it. Then the University President denounced it, and that's that's when the 'learning' part kicked in. [I'd have made fun of it too, the substitutions for perfectly...

    GPS What kind of Truck GPS do you use?

    I've had Garmins for at least 10 years, and love them. I upgraded the first basic model when I found one that plays Audible audiobooks, but that was not a success, because the truck was too noisy to hear well, and no port for earbuds. Then I upgraded again to the current one [a 550, I believe...

    American is now offensive

    University students come up with some crazy sh**, eh? It's all part of the learning experience. For Trump to call it "an outrage" [did he miss the part about how it's meant "to promote discussion"?] shows how ill equipped the man is to lead even a group of Cub Scouts. SMH. :asshat:

    Planned Parenthood's Problem vs. Capitalism

    The video has the PP doc clearly saying they don't "sell" or profit from tissue donations - they charge for the processing and shipping, as any business would. What they do is 100% legal - it's just something that David Daleiden [head of the 'Center for Medical Progress', a laughable name for a...
