    THe posting by westwing is accurate, couldn't say it better myself. It is a shame on this country. Many people hate blacks so oppose the President for number of reasons. I suppose you prefer idiot Bush ? When Bush was in Australia for Apec meeting, Bush thanked Austrians for troop support. In Germany, Bush told reporters that French president should come to my ranch and see some cows. ha ! Americans are good at electing fools into office. I don't vote.

    How ridiculous the discussion has become. Only fools prefer name-calling to rational discussion. They suggest that Joe Wilson's conduct is acceptable because they agree with him. Their party led us into a war with lies, but that is acceptable to them. They are only offended by a Democratic President and scream that he llies because they disagree with him. This is what comes from having opinions spoon fed to lazy people by ego-maniacal talk show hosts rather than having them actually read and reason to come to conclusions.

    The presidents speech confused me. On the one hand i was told nothing would change my insurance nor my care and there was a possibility that my premiums would be reduced. Then the President made the statement that cnfused me. The President incicated that he was going to tax the insurance companies for certain health policies. If I am thinking correctly, anytime a busines gets charged a fee of some sort that fee is passed on to the customer who is purchasing that product. How can my premiums go down if we are going to charge a fee to the insurance companies, that then will pass those on to us?
    Maybe I didn't hear correctly. I did notice that everrytime the President asked for Bi-partisan co-operation, the Republicans all were waving a packet of papers. Does that mean they are prepared to offer constructive options but are bieng held out of the loop?

    I am still waiting to hear if our lawmakers and the President will have the same program as the rest of us, or once again do they feel they are above us and deserve better than those of us whom they work for.

    If it is good enough for my family why is it not good enough for theirs?

    It's not a medical problem. A lot of the time it has to do with one's mental conditioning. We all act ways for different reasons. They say some things are genetic but perhaps it's the parents who contribute heavily on a child's personality. They develop and gain certain conceptions or misconceptions about their environment. But along with all of this comes conditioning in learning how to interact with your environment. We build on flawed foundations. Those are our misconceptions and we don't truly learn to rid ourselves of them until we switch what we believed with what is really true. Whether you think you have or not doesn't necessarily matter. You feel an idea pop up in your head and you think you know what it is. Thus you know how to use that idea or data to interact with your environment. What if you took the time to read the data on the slip rather than recognize what slot it goes into? Get what I'm saying? Perhaps a fat person associates freedom with food. Why? Well perhaps during their childhood their parents were tyrannical or overly critical and didn't hinder them in concerns to food. Why would they find it joyous? Another interesting question. Perhaps when a child used to cry instead of holding them and nurturing them the mother would simply feed them. Not a logical idea in dealing with a child and I don't attribute anything soley to that. I'm simply saying with the countless mixtures of possibilities and mental compositions it's easily far more difficult than medical. Perhaps it's an "eating disorder". By that I mean maybe it's more mental than physical. Another example. Say a person is sexually abused. They're very frightened and insecure in concerns to other people. As a result they may want to distance themselves in a sense. What have they seen of people's attitudes or opinions towards fat people around them? How were they treated? Alienated etc? Or rather what is in their minds in concerns to those with weight already or having it for themseles? Perhaps subconsciously they may devise a strategy to make use of weight gain in the attempts of distancing themselves from a flirtatious stranger or other such things. NOTE I'm NOT saying this would be a common thing. ABSOLUTELY NOT. But it's simply food for thought. I mean when you think about it we all have our things really. So there's doesn't have to come from something so drastic. But simply pointing out the mechanisms involved with all of this.

    Medical problem? First it was alcohol as a medical problem, then drug abuse, now obesity? What's next?

    If you are happy don't let anyone else tell you how to feel. If a man is a man worth having he will look at the whole package, if he only wants you for your looks than he has problems of his own and is very shallow. These type of men or women are never worth having it's like I will only like you if you are what Ithey tell you to be, I say be yourself , cause they will always find somthing wrong with you. they are perfect living there perfect little world!! I hope you thin people , who hate fat people ,all get fat and have people be mean to you everyday of your life for being so mean to people you don't even know!!!!!

    Even ten extra pounds on a woman is too much. God bless the thin girls!

  • Posted By: banfatpeople @ 08/28/2009 8:14:37 PM

    I am sick of overweight women calling the thin ones fake or not real. You women disgust me. I stay in top shape, and as a man, do not want to have to look at these fat assed jiggling everywhere I go. We should have a fat tax on those who are overweight or send them to a labor camp.

    Most memorable lie: Bill Clinton - "I did not have sexual relations with that girl".... classic

  • Posted By: yetanother @ 08/27/2009 2:01:37 PM

    The problem with lying is that the older you get, you pick up on insincerity. If the lies are from family members, it gets a little annoying because you can always recognize them. I also believe there's a difference between lying when caught in a corner (like when Clinton lied) and purposely lying for manipulative reasons. Background references should always be checked to assure nobody gets a job who doesn't have required qualifications. I believe what is being referred to as a cultural trend is really a growing cultural disease and defect.
