“…they (insurance companies) will stop selling new policies in some states because the rules do not protect them from having to cover too many sick children.”

I think I see the problem here. It is not that the insurance companies are in the business for the single purpose of making money, noooooooo, the real problem is that there are too many sick children

Nine years is long enough. Send in Chuck Norris. If he doesn't win it in 93 action packed minutes, send in Gingrich. Then Limbaugh. Cheney. Cheney's cold dead heart. Kristol's woody. Give 'em everything we can afford to lose.

George Bush's address to the nation, Sunday, 7th October 2001: ... <i>Initially, the terrorists may burrow deeper into caves and other entrenched hiding places. Our military action is also designed to clear the way for sustained, comprehensive and relentless operations to drive them out and bring them to justice. At the same time, the oppressed people of Afghanistan will know the generosity of America and our allies. As we strike military targets, we will also drop food, medicine and supplies to the starving and suffering men and women and children of Afghanistan. ... To all the men and women in our military, every sailor, every soldier, every airman, every Coast Guardsman, every Marine, I say this: Your mission is defined. The objectives are clear. Your goal is just. You have my full confidence, and you will have every tool you need to carry out your duty.</i> <a href="http://www.putlearningfirst..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.putlearningfirst.com/language/20rhet/b...">http://www.putlearningfirst...
