Does it include messages and acupuncture?

I believe you meant to say "massages".

And while you are signing up for preventative care, be sure to schedule yourself for an abortion. Male or female, they'll put you on the calendar and check you out.

Heads women win, tails men lose.

Actually ... no. Women pay more for a haircut than men. (pun intended :-)

Don’t forget joining the local gym for physical rehab.

So what did we learn this weekend?

That this congress and president can do just about anything they want unless this is stopped. They could vote that everybody buy and wear purple leisure suits or face a fine and go to jail..

Seriously, I think the slacker option is the way in which the dems are trying to prevent their plan from alienating the youth vote.

It's true that premiums will skyrocket for 20-somethings as a result of Obamacare, but the Dems are counting on the proposition that they won't care because they'll just stay on their parents' policies.

We'll see if that works.

9. If you are a large employer (defined as at least 101 employees) and you do not want to provide health insurance to your employee, then you will pay a $750 fine per employee (It could be $2,000 to $3,000 under the reconciliation changes). Think you know how to better spend that money? Tough. (Section 1513).

does this mean full time employees?

Last week one of the White House press pukes asked Gibbs about the "gun control provision" in the hc bill and I haven't been able to find anyone who knows anything about this.

If they want the guns they must first receive the ammunition. Of course, this is a moot point. All of my guns fell into the lake during an unfortunate boating accident.

A search brought up an old article. I know years ago some peditricians were asking about guns in the home. (Ours never did though).

By: Susan Ferrechio (GAO)
Chief Congressional Correspondent
November 24, 2009

The Senate’s 2,074-page health care bill doesn’t mention guns, but some gun owners are worried certain provisions could eventually be used to discourage or even restrict gun ownership as part of a government effort to influence behavior as it broadens its control over the health care system.

The day before the Senate passed the $848 billion health bill on a party-line vote, the Virginia-based Gun Owners of America sent out a mass alert to its 300,000 members, warning them that the legislation “will most likely dump your gun-related health data into a government database. ... This includes any firearms-related information your doctor has gleaned or any determination of post traumatic stress disorder or something similar, that can preclude you from owning firearms.”

the bishops are OK with all this. As Arch Dolan said, "We've wanted healthcare for years."

Just don't have an explicit abortion provision in there, and don't forget to give people the right to have a conscience.
