    In reply to Commandos To Use Plasma Knives For Field Surgery
    I swear, Rosa, you're really starting to piss me off with your writing.

    Why the hell would I want a lightsaber? That's what I hate about you right-wing religious nutjobs.

    I hate to break it to you but the simple truth of the matter is that ancient weapons and hokey religions are no match for a blaster at your side.

    Not only that, but, given a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers, each carrying a full complement of TIE craft, together with a DEATH STAR (an armored battle station with enough firepower to destroy an entire planet), whiny farmboys, their effete droids, and pederast minders are no match for the might of the GALACTIC EMPIRE.

    You don't frighten me with your blogger ways. Your sad devotion to that ancient religion hasn't conjured up any Google's roadmap for 2010 through 2012 or revealed the specs of the Apple Tablet.

    Minor correction needed: penetrateand is begging for a space in there somewhere.

    Also, neat device. Hope they keep developing it. I'd like a plasma dagger.

    I liken the current system to this.

    Paying FedEx a shitload of money every month for the possibility that I will need a package delivered and then, when I need one, being told I won't get it because I had a preexisting address.

    I love that people are debating the Healthcare Reform Bill- without having read it.

    Read it- all of you, and then debate it.

    It's a little over 2000 pages of small print. If you start now, you should finish it in a couple of days.

    This isn't a pdf so it's a bit easier to load. It's also available at house.gov under h.r. 3200

    I'll admit I haven't finished reading the entire thing.

    "anti-healthcare reform bigots"

    Oh come on. So if you disagree with Obama's plan you are anti-healthcare reform and a bigot? Don't insult us, just don't.

    @chattermonkey: So who are these nameless anti-healthcare reform bigots anyways? Why even include them in the article? I'd say what's going on is quite transparent regardless of how ambiguously it was put. I don't know of a lot of anti-healthcare reform bigots but I do know of a lot of politicains and people in general who disagree with the president's plan and would prefer something different.
