Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) States Why Public Healthcare Is Essential in Reform. Joel Send a noteboard - 16/09/2009 03:57:01 PM
There, fixed your title for you.
"If you have no insurance, it doesn't matter what services are mandated by the state," he said, according to a CQ Today item from March 15th, 2006.

Fixed your story, too. That private insurers can get away with blowing off abused spouses (it happens to men, too, y'know... ) that would get elected officials pilloried is a prime example of what I mean when I say a government program would be accountable to consumers in a way no private one ever can be. We MAY need to offer patients more "help" than restricting causes and/or damages for which they can sue when a doctor maims them or kills a relative. Every time the GOP "helps" me it makes my rectum sore....

there are plenty of other sources you could find if you like Aisha - 16/09/2009 12:52:51 AM 312 Views
If you want to link a real news source then it is worth looking into random thoughts - 16/09/2009 02:33:32 PM 315 Views
Umm....if the person is still in that relationship, then it seems like a pretty smart practice to me Brian - 15/09/2009 11:34:00 PM 339 Views
I had that thought at first too, nossy - 16/09/2009 12:03:58 AM 348 Views
Indeed Brian - 16/09/2009 03:13:04 AM 323 Views
wow if only all women were as smart and strong as you Aisha - 16/09/2009 12:48:26 AM 346 Views
And where exactly does this article, or my reply say anything about anything you just said? Brian - 16/09/2009 01:09:54 AM 339 Views
It's a "women's issue." Don't go bringing rational thought into it. Cannoli - 16/09/2009 01:33:21 AM 352 Views
I just don't get the whole Appeal to Emotion thing Brian - 16/09/2009 04:34:08 AM 310 Views
I think we're understanding this article differently. Sareitha Sedai - 16/09/2009 02:02:47 AM 343 Views
I think we probably are. Brian - 16/09/2009 02:56:46 AM 315 Views
That logic is ridiculous. I could make that claim about anything. everynametaken - 16/09/2009 05:45:08 AM 314 Views
Do you have any idea how insurance works? Brian - 16/09/2009 06:12:10 AM 303 Views
Yes, I do know how insurance works. Using that as an excuse for denial is still unethical and sick. *NM* everynametaken - 16/09/2009 06:58:36 PM 135 Views
I agree that battered women need help Brian - 16/09/2009 07:41:17 PM 317 Views
If I understand it, they can make that claim about almost anything. nossy - 16/09/2009 03:20:14 PM 319 Views
Exactly. *NM* everynametaken - 16/09/2009 06:56:38 PM 131 Views
The margins of profit in the health insurance industry are so razor thin that they have to do it Brian - 16/09/2009 07:59:18 PM 327 Views
This is a perfect example MightyYT - 16/09/2009 01:28:11 AM 328 Views
How completely stupid, ignorant or self-entitled are you? Do you even understand insurance at ALL? Cannoli - 16/09/2009 01:58:46 AM 472 Views
Awww, your righteous indignation is so cute! Sareitha Sedai - 16/09/2009 02:12:41 AM 334 Views
agreement LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 02:28:03 AM 338 Views
Well the issue seems to be whether it's a pre-existing condition. Aemon - 16/09/2009 04:51:33 AM 311 Views
perhaps in that instance LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 05:12:48 AM 308 Views
Ah! I was wondering when you would rear your ugly head on this board. everynametaken - 16/09/2009 05:48:14 AM 397 Views
Yeah, no. Dannymac - 16/09/2009 06:08:02 AM 333 Views
But I thought my Uterus made me Evil and Stupid? LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 01:19:15 PM 300 Views
Nobody has been lying to YOU....now if other women were told the same..that's different. *NM* Brian - 17/09/2009 01:50:01 AM 124 Views
Which is exactly why we need a public option. *NM* rebelaessedai - 16/09/2009 03:14:03 PM 123 Views
I could understand an increased rate or altered benefits LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 02:32:46 AM 325 Views
Re: I could understand an increased rate or altered benefits Isaac - 16/09/2009 03:25:58 AM 293 Views

entirely seperate LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 04:06:01 AM 320 Views
Then I'd say it's a pretty decent plan Isaac - 16/09/2009 04:17:31 AM 304 Views
nonsense!! LadyLorraine - 16/09/2009 04:40:15 AM 389 Views
*NM* Isaac - 16/09/2009 07:42:25 PM 148 Views
Well since there was no actual rate of denial given we don't know how comon it is random thoughts - 16/09/2009 03:03:14 PM 286 Views
Yet another reason to get out of that relationship. Hmm. *NM* Mad Cow Bomber - 16/09/2009 05:38:21 AM 145 Views
