That’s an interesting point. Do you have the same question when it comes to caring for the elderly?

What are you talking about? Private insurance companies cover illness, not merely elderly.

Insurance is based on more people being healthy than on everyone being ill and drawing services. That is the profit-making model. You take in more money than you pay out. Thus, profit. But I suppose the left doesn’t like profit in the first place.’

Unless it’s from killing innocent babies in their mothers’ wombs.
 
I do. Especially considering Medicare and Social Security will soon run out of funds, and this president has no plans to address its survival long-term.

In other words, tough decisions will have to be made.

I’m talking about your question regarding money and the long-term care of an 11 year-old.
Where is the MONEY going to come from, meltzerboy? You force insurance companies to pay out without limit? That is going to drive them out of business

So, what is a reasonable limit?

The Democrats want to allow women to abort thereby preventing births; the Republicans want to allow the children to be starved and neglected after they are born.

Yes, that’s why Republicans are more generous in their charitable donations. :rolleyes:
 
I was shocked at the level of personal attacks made against Mitt Romney. Attacks against his policies is fine, but I heard a lot of personal smears.😦

No, you said ELDERLY, not an 11 year old girl. Stop changing the subject.

There should be a “sad applause” smiley. You really nailed it on this issue Scott. I do believe that Pope Benedict will bring this problem to the forefront.

On can only hope. I love HIs Holiness, but he tends to be a bit reclusive. I hope that a future pope is selected that will be a bit more public like JPII, and just as forcefully dogmatic as BXVI.

Let’s see if I can make this clear…you questioned the amount of spending on the care of an 11 year old…I asked if you had the same question when it came to care of the elderly.

There it is.

Democrats moving Obama’s speech to Time Warner Cable Arena
President Barack Obama will now deliver his nomination speech Thursday at Time Warner Cable Arena because of concerns about severe weather, the Democratic National Convention Committee announced on Wednesday.

“We have been monitoring weather forecasts closely and several reports predict thunderstorms in the area, therefore we have decided to move Thursday’s proceedings to Time Warner Cable Arena to ensure the safety and security of our delegates and convention guests,” said DNCC CEO Steve Kerrigan. The energy and enthusiasm for our convention in Charlotte has been overwhelming and we share the disappointment of over 65,000 people who signed up for community credentials to be there with the President in person. We encourage our community credential holders and Americans across the country to continue to come together with their friends and neighbors to watch and participate in history."

On Tuesday, DNCC officials confirmed the arena was a backup site for Obama’s acceptance speech Thursday if bad weather forced a move from Bank of America Stadium.

A move to the smaller arena venue could prove to be a logistical headache for the event organizers, who have not said where the overflow of people would go.

Campaign officials had distributed thousands of community credentials, and then ran out of them, but did not state a specific number. The DNCC expects 65,000 to attend the stadium speech, including delegates, guests and community credential holders. The arena has 15,000 seats for the DNC, organizers have said.

Skeptical if that was the reason when there were reports of them giving out tickets and busing people in

Well someone has to talk about Mitt Romney. At the RNC Chris Christie and Marco Rubio were too busy talking about themselves.

I haven’t seen any evidence that CAF users support the notion of Catholicism as the exclusively practiced belief in the U.S. You’re going to have to point to specific posts to be credible on this.

Well, in fairness, I support the formal establishment of the Catholic Church. I haven’t voiced it on this thread, though where I have I am almost unanimously shouted down by every single Catholic in the room.

Its because he is not getting enough people to fill the outside venue.
I personally heard Rush Limbaugh predict this two days ago.

Lot of people have been saying they have not been able to fill the seats in the Bank of America stadium

Remember the speech in the stadium with Greek colums behind Obama. In a stadium which can seat 20 thousand, the feel will be different for sure

To quote Obama back in 08’:" When you can’t run on your record,then you resort to personallyattacking your opponent, with hopes that people will run from him!":mad:
 
Why is it that people from New Jersey (i.e. the governor but especially Booker last night) tend to yell at us?
