I'm prone to agree with your theory. I guess many do not see gangsters and other thugs who terrorize neigborhoods and entire cities as terrorist. We treat them as criminals. Those who attack us by way of bombing and other such horrid actions are no less criminals. Those who attack our cities are no less then terrorist so through my eyes they are all criminals as well as terrorist. Someone who travels by plane from foreign countries are simply international criminals.

I spent a few years with a volunteer group helping to transition felons from prison to home but the reality is they wear a stigma and its hard to break. For some reason too many people hold serious grudges against them and to my way of thinking force them back into prisons by their actions.

I have always felt it unfair to put undo pressure on felons who have completed their time. It would make sense if the next crime they committed was related to their privious crime but it doesn't necesarily work that way. So much of that system is very unfair and does little to help the felon.

There's a sort of irony
something you may lack
You might notice me
if you chance to look back

Good stuff-

Sorry, dear, I guess you'll be sick for a long time. Intelligence is in the eye of the beholder. I behold you have nothing to worry about.

I see how you think now. There is in no way a comparison to how BUsh responded to actual hits on the WTC and Obama responding to an attack on a plane which landed safely. Sure there was danger but you ought to keep in mind the plane originated in a foreign country where the terrorist boarded. There were not 3000 people dead nor was the country in an uproar about it. All those I spoke to were concerned about it but were not in a total tizzy as you seem to wish us all to be.

Love ya, Ken. At least you believe enough in your convictions to keep at it. However all your posted data only says to me that you simply do not care for the legislation from either house which has been a known from day one with you which is why I deemed it a waste of effort to respond to any more of your postings. A prime example is to read that a public option is an unproven concept. Sure it actually might be but when did we start dealing with concepts which were unproven. As far back as I can recall. If you want to be as basic as one can get "war" is still an unproven concept. It always cost us huge sums, rarely allows for any progress from the situation prior to its beginng "but" here we are reading your unproven concept.

You can present every chart, every post against health care or any spending you wish and I will still take this broken down have assed health care billl over no change at all. In reality where I feel the break down has come in the oppostion is false pretense. Scare tactics. A step away from any reality which exist within the realm of legislation for helping the citizens of this country with health care. All your arguments against fall short of any reality I see except for snobbery, selfishness qnd down right evilness. If thats what your opposition is based then continue to oppose. Continue your lambasting with lousy pitiful excuses. Go righ tahead and tell allof us how so expensive it is yet then I want you to deny the need to attack another country who had little affect on our safety and with money we had to borrow to achieve. Some how I can't help but reach a vomitous state when I read such garbage from you and others and will you please stop telling those lies about how the president did not offer a hand to get your republican baffoons to participate. I have heard every drunken lie as to how they were excluded from the process while the republicans were grandstanding with their high moral ground that this is bad for America. Seems to me while accepting huge donations from the health care industry just like many of the dems at least a handful of them could have shown a bit of compassion for the people they respresent and participate. No, apparently you accepted their chicanery as something real and not politics as usual. The repubs made it a truly political event with nothing but crap as their agenda. I see no less than evilness and down right selfish motives in all that has been done to make sure the health care reforms look like a scam.

Your article shows it very clear to me. Just like you I worked for major constructoin companies for decades as well as for myself and paid chuncks of money for health care but now that many of us are retired the insurance has ben dropped by the companies and the insurance groups. If you can't feel that as wrong I feel sorry for you. I noticed over the past decade that the governement put no pressure on insurance companies or industry to maintain enough funds in the accounts to cover the large numbers of insured they promised to carry after they left the jobs which was an indication to me that they really didn't care. Then someone like you comes along with your "I shouldn't have to pay for anothers insurance dialog" which only rubs me th ewrong way. Dammit I paid for my insurance but do not have it. I got screwed along with millions of others. What in any god's name or the devil for that matter makes you so damn evil in your processing of data about health insurance?

I've had similar feelings since I was a youngster in Viet Nam. I bought into the "to protect our freedoms" excuse until I saw the truth staring me in my face. It was a lie. The Viet Namese I was trying to kill had not threatened me nor this country.

I know when words touch
like yours did this morn
tickles deep in the soul
as if an angels blew its horn

Good stuff
