Fight the intrusion of quackery and religious woo in health care reform

I’m a spiritual/non-religious person which confuses the heck out of those that are religious, the church going, bible thumping/quoting type.

They just can’t understand that you can pray and believe in God without all the other man-made stuff…my Mother’s southern fundementalist family for an example…

Hey Monk..I’m a big believer and user of acupunture and massage…both are covered under most insurance policies…for me they work…not a big pill popper, always forget to take them…even my vitamins…

Hey KQuark,

What would Jesus do? He send all their asses packing…If they really ‘read’ the bible, Jesus was the biggest liberal around..

The lines have blurred between Church and State in this country since Reagan, but good news…the non-christians are gaining in numbers.

I’m just a little tired of them forcing their values on the rest of us…and putting it into law.

“Buckingham claims that women are less happy than they used to be, are less happy than men and become increasingly unhappy as they get older”

As an “older women”, I think I am happier now than ever, there seems to be less of the self created stress in my life now. Been there, done that, no need to impress that person, no need to be seen as perfect, what’s a little dust and dog hair…you figure out, speaking for myself, my sisters and maybe a few of my girlfriends, all post or pari menopause, all this stuff really doesn’t matter in the end.

For some of us older women, are children are grown, are hormones are gone or are in the midst of a raging battle, we now start to look inward….we take an inventory of who we are, where we’ve been, what’s worked and what hasn’t.Then we start to figure out what really give us joy…and it’s usually the simple things such as our family and friends, a good hair day, your jeans fitting, laughing with your girlfriends over something silly that you did, your goofy dog rolling in a big mud puddle having the time of his life, like mine did this morning…

I think Arianna just hasn’t stopped long enough to listen to her inner self, maybe she’s scared too, I know a lot of women my age that refuse to do this, because in doing so you have to admit to yourself that you may have made some mistakes along the way, and a big one for many, is that you are aging…if she had, something else would have been written…

Ariannics Anonymous

Morning here in CT, how are you? I’m coming here in the mornings instead of HuffPo, trying to stiffle my urge and addiction! It looks like there was some lively discussion here last night, Yankees were playing, lost to Phillies, so I wasn’t here.

Amen, I feel the power of the lord, (look I can type lord w/o code), my hands are reaching out for you dear lord, help me, help me, I was once blind, but now I see…..:{}Praise the Lord and pass the peas

I think most here have already given that up, we may have the occasional dry drunk here, but that’s to be expected…

Funny how freeing this is, to actually say that the “Queen has no clothes on”….

Well gotta scoot, need to get something simple for dinner tonight, Yankees are playing…Have a great evening and keep on posting your great stuff…

Hi, my name is BigDogMom, and I’m a Ariannic, I’ll admit it, it’s been going on a long time now…I need the praise of fans, (sic), I need to feel loved, (sic)…..and like I am Ann of Ca, I want my opinions to be broadcast thru those series of internet tubes to the world…too much?

3.) Made the decision to turn our live over to the care of PlanetPov as ‘we understood it”

4.) Made a searching and fearless inventory of ourselves in relation to Huff Po and Queen Bee

5.) Admitted to PlanetPov, ourselves and to other ex-Huff Po posters the exact nature of being wronged

Should I go on….

Conjecture, Unsubstantiated Info…Where Should the Line Be Drawn?

Wonderful post nicole, I’m finding it harder and harder to believe the information that is out there, whether it be on the news or in print…I’ve taken to reading between the lines and checking two or three other main news outlets to see how close or how far apart they are…

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 28, 2009 @ 11:01 am

‘Just saying…’ The throw it out there and see if it sticks type of questions..gives the author/journalist an out if they are called out on their statement…Just asking, as Lou Dobbs would say…:]

SickJo

As a resident of CT, the state Dem party wanted to censure him and started proceedings to recall him, they were stopped by the DNC and the President…they really needed his vote was their answer….

My question yesterday, “Can Reid hold his chairmanship over his head for a yes vote”…Would be pleased if Reid did, and after HC is passed with a Robust Public Option, they screw the heck out of him….

Here in CT we are none to happy with ol’Joe, Blumenthal our States Attorney is going to go after his seat, and he is real popular, very fair and honest….and I will work my butt off to make sure he gets in….

I See A Lot of Familiar “Faces”

Not too much info, keep positive, I’m 51 and have lost quite a few Bookkeeping Clients due to the ‘economy’ and my Landscape Design business is hanging on a by a thread….I decided to go back to the belief system of knock and it shall be opened for you, yep, the old universal law…not the “The Secret” type..the basic, write it down and make it happen…started to do that last week and really got precise on what I wanted and wouldn’t you know I got a call from a potential new client…it does work, what we think, we create…so keep your spirits up, what you want will come to you, you just have to be very specific….:}

I like Spirit of St. Monkus if it were sent to the floor for a vote…How are you, raining like cats and big dogs here in CT, but it’s bringing down all the leaves which is good thing…work smart, not hard, my motto…

Funny my neck and shoulders are not tense when I post here..:]

Reading ‘I am Ann from Ca’, as I call her, postings I have figured out that she is a lonely middle age to older women, that takes care of her grandkids, has lost her husband, (not sure if he left her), and is a control freak…do as I say, for I am Ann from Ca and I know…I normally would have fobbed her off, but this time she went over a line that I have in my head and heart….I have problems with someone like her telling others what they should do as if it were fact, with no regard to what was being discussed at the time…it’s the look at me I know that I have a problem with…Oh, well

The article at the time was the H1N1 flu and should you get a vaccine. A lot of posters were on the fence and wanted to hear what others were going to do, which is fair…then as usual it just degenerated into what this admin is not doing, of course H1N1 must have been their fault…yadda, yadda, yadda….

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 28, 2009 @ 6:00 am

Morning, Don’t get me started on:

I AM ANN FROM CA

I went off on her the other day, she just pushed a button in me, from then on I couldn’t stop, it wasn’t even a controversal statement that she made, it was a me, me statement that set me in motion.

I had what Chasethis would call ‘Potty Mouth’…I’m suprised that I wasn’t banned, but then again it may have been what they, the mods, would have wanted to get the ball rolling, and to push the number of clicks up $$$.

Here I seemed to be far more relaxed and willing to get more into a discussion than a tit for tat one line discourse…

“The Empire Strikes Back” on Public Option

As a CT resident in Leiberman’s district, there are tons of people that have contacted him, you can’t get through via phone line, mailbox full, e-mails the only way…what good it will do who knows, he’s going rogue all the time, sometimes I swear he forgets he’s from CT.

As for Reid, let’s hope this is not a political ploy and the real deal….

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 27, 2009 @ 1:20 pm

Question: Can Reid hold Lieberman’s chairmanship over his head to force a vote for a Public Option? Would love to know…

Was over at HP, the posts are fast and furious, asked the same question, no replies, must not have been witty enough….

The Other Murdoch

It’s become it’s own social network, and god forbid if you don’t fit in…you must be witty and equipped with a bag full of one liners…Friday and Saturday nights are music nights…

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 27, 2009 @ 2:10 pm

The last month or so, the wisecracking one liners seem to be the norm, had to get off today, couldn’t take it anymore, they were coming fast and furious.

Even the regulars who usually have wonderful posts have resorted the one liners, it’s the get them before they get me mentallity type of posts that serve no purpose what so ever..a lot has changed there at ol’huffpo

‘balloon girl’ that’s kicker…from what I understand from reading kevensevens posts here, they can id your ip address…And I AbsolutelyTotallyAgree with you 100%!

Did you see her new op-ed, ‘Obama’s doing my job for me”, basically more attacks, an incoherant rant if you ask me…then the groveling positive posts below agreeing with her just made me sick.

The dissenters of her post, tried you to say that, ‘hey give him time, this is a big mess he has been left’ Which is how I feel, you don’t throw someone under a bus in just ten months…fast and quick knee jerk reactions are not going to get this done right…hey, I don’t mind that Obama ‘Dithers’

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 27, 2009 @ 1:53 pm

Welcome, so glad to see you here, your posts are great at HP, and yes sometimes your frustrations do show through, but doesn’t everyones at times…but you are one of the ones that I look to for an honest opinion.

Did you get banned, that seems to be the thing these days, along with a higher than usual number of very nasty trolls…

» Posted By BigDogMom On October 27, 2009 @ 1:36 pm

That my thoughts exactly, it goes back to principles, a persons principles don’t change that dramatically….but there are some that will sleep with the enemy just for a buck…but they too are just as suspect in my mind…
