Poor people shouldn't watch TV? Is that it?

It's just an example of the many luxuries one can do without to afford health insurance.

But, again, we're focusing on the wrong problem. Unless and until health care costs come down to what is considered rational and reasonable, health care reform will continue to remain elusive.

Do you think people who can afford such luxuries should be taken care of by the rest of us because they didn't plan ahead - when some who do plan ahead go without those luxuries so they can?

(And, yes, white people buy widescreen televisions too.)

Wow!! Then just 20 years later (1986) granted Amnesty to 9 million of them.

My husband's employer pays for most of it, we pay the rest.

When it comes to health care reform, trust me, I've been leading the charge for three decades.

We aren't even anywhere close yet.

That's what I've been trying to say. Thank you for saying it in a way a 4-year-old could understand.

It's precisely because of the ones who go without who pay for the ones who can afford insurance more than they can.

By the way, to Homer and those who are "concerned" about me, I eat plenty more fruits and vegetables than sweets and eat sugar free most of the time. And rarely eat red meat - mostly chicken, turkey and fish.

But thanks for ya'll's concern anyway.

Democrat Tip O'Neil: I lied when I said we would secure the border as a condition for amnesty, Mr. Reagan. You should've known that we democrats are always lying. Oh, and sorry we vetoed every one of your budgets and spent like tasmanian devils.

Thanks. You would be right regarding the loopholes and "Dirtbag" Walsh, number one Teabagger.

Yeah sure NOW you are after we have pestered you for months about eating healthier.

Next thing you know you'll be voting for Obama and touting how the stimulis saved the country from certain disaster and how finance and healthcare reforms were good things for the average working person and banks should not be exempt from culpability and no person should be denied coverage.

Bah, Reagan would say anything to get elected. He even told conservative that he was a conservative and they believed him! Buncha dolts.

Amnesty for illegals
Budget deficits
Massive spending
Tax increases
Expansion of the size of the federal goverment
Deregulation
Union busting
Destruction of the middle class
Etc etc etc

"During Mr. Reagan's trip to Europe...members of the traveling press corps watched him doze off so many times--during speeches by French President Francois Mitterrand and Italian President Alessandro Pertini, as well as during a one-on-one audience with the Pope--that they privately christened the trip 'The Big Sleep.'"
