No, LBJ is the worst president we've had. Schlzm

The problem with polling is it's wildly inaccurate and as we have seen uses broad generalizations to get answers. I want a snapshot in time for RIGHT NOW. What are the new numbers as of today. No speculation, no guesswork, just a raw number of new vs renewed. It would be a concrete number...

:goodposting: This law didn't need to create some magical new real time tracking mechanism. However the lawmakers or whoever should ask a simple question and get a simple answer but that isn't happening. It's basic accounting and it's been around since numbers were invented. Schlzm

I have a cursory understanding of the legal protections invloving PHI/PII. I don't think anyones rights or privacy would be violated if a health insurance company simply ran a few table quesries in their accounting software asking pretty much SELECT * FROM NEW SELECT * FROM OLD and just parsed...

:goodposting: Asking for numbers is being done by the 3 stooges. Why can't the President just tell all of the big bad insurance companies to provide two sets of data. 1: How many renewals did you have. 2: How many new signups did you have? I mean I know math is kind of like black magic but I...

Ignoring the contradicting data in the article and the fact that this is a poll of less than 15,000 people to get to the ~12mm number. The more important question is how many of the newly insured are subsidized vs. unsubsidized? How many of the new signups are for medicaid? I don't care if the...

Just came in to post this and to ask what timbigot's thoughts were. Schlzm

We did however go in totally under the premise of protecting all the ethnic Americans who needed protection...Schlzm

I was going to type out a bunch of pointless babble about who may or may not have been the valid racist dictator of the entirety of Eastern Europe since the beginning of the Big Bang just so Tim could justify his hatred of hot chicks but decided not to derail the thread down that path again. Schlzm

To be fair the Polish government at the end of 1939 was Nazi Germany so...Schlzm

Different than the invasion and annexation of the Crimean peninsula? Even if the majority populace "invites" intervention?Schlzm

Glad to see you got over your bigotry Tim! Russia surrounds Ukraine and has them out manned and outgunned and just took their Navy away. Russia does what it wants to Ukraine if no one else steps in to help.Schlzm

It's a great distraction from a lot of the mindless crap I have to put up with during the day.Schlzm
