Swindling is the Corporate Way By Martha Doolittle A lot of those on the right are attempting to say that insurance companies aren't the evil entities that President Obama and Nancy Pelosi make them out to be. Those on the right are wrong. It's well known among sane people that any company/individual that has the ability to screw you over will in fact screw you over. Let's take auto mechanics... Most people can't rebuild their own transmissions. Auto mechanics take advantage of such ignorance by making up bogus costs. It's why auto mechanics justifiably have the reputation for being slime balls. Is it that people born with the ability to fix automobiles also have an inherent need to be deceitful? Nope - it's all about opportunity. If McDonalds could get away with not parting with the fries you paid for, they would. But they can't, because most people look in the bag before driving away. When corporations exhibit honest behavior, it isn't because they're kind hearted, it's because they can't get away with cheating you out of your hard-earned money. Full Story>>> The President Will Never Again Be Popular By Sarah Laimbeer Due to the title of this piece, most of you are probably thinking that I'm one of those weak-stomached liberals who have turned their back on President Obama simply because I disagree with one or more of his policies. Well I don't disagree with President Obama, and I certainly haven't turned my back on the remarkable man. Unfortunately that's not the case for many of my fellow liberals. It's not that President Obama has done a poor job, it's that no president will ever remain popular for the simple reason that everyone is in it for themselves. If comprehensive health insurance reform is passed then maybe the quality of care for my family goes down. But, if society benefits, I don't mind waiting a few extra days to have my broken ankle examined by a doctor, or even spending a few nights in the waiting room. (As long as health insurance reform doesn't lead to a rationing of People Magazine and comfortable pillows!) Full Story>>> Waiting for the Bomb to Drop By Martha Doolittle In response to the current economic crisis, the Republicans are once again contradicting themselves. The GOP is proposing we simply wait for the economy to improve. They say that with capitalism the economy naturally goes through ups and downs, and patience is the key to ending the financial turmoil. (I hope they don't take a similar approach when their air conditioner breaks! "I told you to call the repairman," their wife exclaims. "Honey, air conditioners go through phases of working and not working. If we leave it alone I'm sure it will soon be blowing as much cold air as we Republicans blow hot air.) Then, after saying we should just wait, they say the Great Depression was ended, not with government intervention or patience, but with the start of World War II! Well which is it!? Full Story>>> I Guess You Forgot that We Won By Martha Doolittle Let me get this straight Republicans; you think it's perfectly fine for your President to wage unjust wars against sovereign nations: wars which kill thousands of innocent people, but absolutely go ballistic over an immensely popular Democrat President getting a little, what you consider, "spendy." And you wonder why the American people have soured on the Republican Party! The hypocrisy is staggering. "Starting two wars is fine, but how dare you have the audacity to possess a different opinion on how to solve a fiscal crisis! I hope the seating chart in hell goes: Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot, people who think the way to cure a massive recession is an aggressive spending plan, Jeffrey Dahmer and the guy who killed Gandhi," you say. Full Story>>> Homosexuality Is Not a Choice � Is it by Choice That You Like Fat Asses? By Martha Doolittle Please excuse the language in the headline of this piece, but sometimes the Republican Party just burns me up. They say that homosexuality is a choice - that you aren't born gay. That's ridiculous! We can't help to whom we're physically attracted! I am not a heterosexual because God says it's okay - I'm a heterosexual because I really like to feel the touch of a man against my milky white thighs. Let me ask you heterosexual conservative men a question: Are you attracted to a specific physical attribute by choice? Did you choose to be a "breast man?" Did you decide you were going to like women with a little junk in the trunk - a bit loose in the caboose? No, it's beyond your control that you enjoy watching that luscious booty wiggle and jiggle as you get your freak on. Full Story>>> I Can Feel a Change in the Air; but I Still Haven't Received My Check By Martha Doolittle I applaud you, President Obama, for completely changing the tune in Washington DC! No more Republican bully tactics which force us to abandon our principles in order to fight the so-called, "War on Terror." Finally Europe and the rest of the world are on our side and humanity can unite in a quest for goodness! There is just one thing, and I hate to even bring it up, but I have yet to receive a check from you. Are you calling it a stimulus check or a tax break? Either way I have yet to receive the check itself, or a note indicating it's en route. I heard the U.S. Mail may have to cut back delivery days what with the ailing economy and all - could that have something to do with it? I really hate to be a burden, but I'm included in the 95% of the people you mentioned who would be receiving relief from our struggling economy. Full Story>>> The Devil (Ann Coulter) Returneth! By Martha Doolittle My husband and I were watching Faux News the other night and guess who was making an appearance on Hannity & Colmes ? That's right; the devil herself, Ann Coulter. I will say that she looks great. I don't say that to be complementary, I say she looks great because it proves that she has made some kind of deal with Satan, or possibly is the devil herself. Seems Ms. Coulter has a new book out entitled, "Guilty: Liberal Victims and Their Assault on America." Though loved by the conservative fringe for her quick wit and stinging one liners, I have to ask: How hard would it be to achieve her level of success? See, what those on the far-right don't realize, because they're too busy drooling over her blonde hair and petite frame, is that her formula is very simple and predictable. Full Story>>> Even Your Sinful Urges Are Holy By Martha Doolittle So you Republicans have decided to change the part of the Constitution that says, "Equal rights for everyone," to say, "Equal rights only for those who are attracted to members of the opposite sex." And you have undoubtedly done this for religious reasons, I assume. You have a problem with people settling down together for a life of sin, yes? Every kiss on the cheek, lustful thought and romantic moment is a sin to you. But wait, aren't you all sinners? Weren't you born that way? I'm confused... Wait, I think I got it. It's one thing to sin, but it's another to live a life of sin. Like it's okay to sin by screaming out a curse word after stubbing your toe, but to go on stage every night with a vile stand-up act is living a life of sin. I got it now! No, I'm still confused.
