rod03801: Right on. The majority of Americans were/are against the health care bill. There's not going to be enough money to pay for it. There are fewer health care items in the bill than there is PORK. And even so, in ten years there will still be 20 MILLION people WITHOUT any health care.

As for banking, the Founders of the US warned against the very thing that Obama has done with banking.

As for Iraq, Obama is just trying to score political points. He's all talk, no substance.

Artful Dodger: Even IF you are right.. 20 million down from 40 million means 20 million USA citizens will have health care who didn't before... Also that means 20 million people in the USA will be paying for care.

The founders of the USA (who Palin does not know the names of) were not of an age that would recognise the current banking system.

Tuesday: The fraud (eg Madoff) and other practices that banks (thanks to the relaxation of bank rules globally) take part in could not take place back 200 years ago.

For one.. they didn't have the computers to hide the accounts or to do the long distance banking we now see... socially, it was a different time.

But the thirst for oil was tooo strong... gotta protect the flow.

Sounds a bit Dune-ish
