And your post was not trolling? Come onnnnnnnn Whorn.....sm
you asked a question...you did not want an answer? If not then YOUR post was trolling...baiting, wanting to start a fight. Those who live in glass houses....
You have a nice day, too! And I really mean that, because like I said, we are anonymous posters on a public board. I bear no animosity to you or any other poster on either board whether they agree with me or not. Just like Teddy/Lifelong Democrat/whatever moniker comes next doesn't know me...but she attacks me at every opportunity. Which is a little silly really.
As I said, I will respect the request of the two liberal posters who said they did not want to have to defend their positions. I will not respond to their posts, I will just read. I don't want anyone to stop coming to a board or posting just because they feel they have to *defend.* That is not a good thing, for either board.
However, as the moderator has said ad nauseam...we can cross-post, and from time to time I will do so. Just last week a flock of liberals came over the conservative board and jumped all over me on the abortion issue...and what I did NOT do was tell them to go back to their own board. I debated them there just like I debate them here, because it is their right to post there and to counter my posts and to debate. I have NO problem with that. So, with all due respect, get over it, okay, and move on from this.... I have no personal bone to pick with any of you. It is a exchange of ideas...which I am open to. I don't claim to have all the answers...I am open to learning. I do not understand why someone who identifies herself/himself as belonging to a group whose political leanings are to champion individual rights, free speech chief among them, would make such an issue about someone exercising it. Or does all that just reach to those who agree with them? Care to explain that one?
Again...have a good day.
Fantastic post Piglet. From Whorn s/m
Thanks for your post piglet. It seems a number of us share concerns regarding the current system. I currently have health insurance, but due to my age of over 55 and a few minor preexisting conditions I am unable to secure health insurance for below $13.000,00 a year. I am able to deduct 100% of my premiun on my taxes. I pay no federal tax as a result, but the lessened dollar amout off of off my taxes is about $150.00 a year, and does really make a dent in my $!3,000 annual health premium.
