"It has been shown, biologically that a fetus is a human being, just as much as you or me are a [sic] human being."

That is just sophomorically stupid. It is NOT the point, legally. And, the point under discussion is the attempt to enact discriminatory LAWS, not endless abstract philosophical debate.

introduce this clown to Orly Taitz. Now, THERE would be a perfect match.

"Every ten years or so, the United States needs to pick up some crappy little country and throw it against the wall, just to show the world we mean business."

is why Libertariansim is naive. Minimalist government requires an overwhelmingly ethically adult population. We cannot say this about our scam-a-minute country.

Quality entertainment.

We'll need an entire new chapter in the DSM-IV manual for this lunatic.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. Aptly put.

There IS NO outcome that would satisfy this moron and her ilk except for the entire world (including the President) to admit that she has been right all along. Ain't gonna happen.

But, let her keep at it, for its pure entertainment value. Beats the crap outa the tiresome and banal Jon & Kate.

I wonder how much that all cost?

Orly Taitz just announced that she will sue the NFL to allow Rush Limbaugh to buy the Rams.

"At a time when anti-choice groups are sincerely attempting to redefine personhood as "the beginning of biological development" -- raising the possibility of everything from miscarriages being investigated as potential homicides to pregnant women qualifying for the carpool lane -- blurring the line between religious beliefs and observable facts is what I would call "risky" and "radical."

I was all over this a year and a half ago. Link in my name. And I am now watching these various state-level offshoots of "PersonhoodUSA.com" initiatives (we now have one in Nevada).

Still too early to tell what a final bill will contain. As I wrote in the last of my blog series on health policy,

"The most excruciating of economic and ethical choices inescapably await us. And, while much of the public continues to sleepwalk into this morally daunting future (abetted by the well-funded stultifyingly fear-stoking fallacies of corporate status quo interests), we really don't have the luxury of time to continue to kick this policy can down the road. Sadly, it appears to a worrisome degree that that is precisely where we're headed at best."

[Pgs 257-8] "Not later than 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Comptroller General shall conduct a study on the affordability of health insurance coverage, including...the availability of affordable health benefits plans...the ability of individuals to maintain essential health benefits coverage..."

So, we're gonna undertake a "study" STARTING in 2014 to see whether any of this shit is even working?

LOL.

HR3590, Page 2045 LOL, the anti Nip/Tuck provision: ‘‘CHAPTER 49—ELECTIVE COSMETIC MEDICAL PROCEDURES IMPOSITION OF TAX ON ELECTIVE COSMETIC MEDICAL PROCEDURES.‘‘(a) IN GENERAL.—There is hereby imposed on any cosmetic surgery and medical procedure a tax equal to 5 percent of the amount paid for such procedure (determined without regard to this section), whether paid by insurance or otherwise.‘‘...
