Wow "raping" seems to be the rallying cry for the right.
And for those crying about the student loan change and the problem it will cause for Sallie Mae. Well boo fucking who, maybe the CEO won't earn 5.4 million like he did last year. That money could have paid for a lot of college.

"Rape" and having the health care bill "rammed down their throats". Some news clips I've seen I've had some problems being able to tell if they're discussing the health care bill or "the evils of hard core pornography".

Jodi, that story isn't uncommon among CEOs of major corporations, even those that aren't doing particularly well. The company I work for didn't give raises this year, despite making a handsome profit. The CEO got more than 10 million as a bonus.

Just so no one thinks I'm a complete idiot (too late in some cases, I know), I do know that Mexico is not a communist nation. Really, I do. It was a joke. We really need more of those winkie emoticons around here. I guess I should have said Nazi, but I didn't want to step on the comedy stylings of Mr. Retour.

Mike the thing that bothers me is there are some things where big bonus pay outs should not be applied. I have no problem with a company like Apple who has a product that they produce/ develop and carry inventory, making a big bonus. This is money they make completely off of their ingenuity and hard work. But companies like Sallie Mae and insurance companies are just middle men that have gotten fat off of the tax payers.

Ha, next time I will say "national socialist" and that way we can all skip "Nazi" and feel good about health care too!

Now, I wouldn't be too hasty about that, Jeff!
