Actually, there are currently several types of "doc-in'the-box" clinics, operating as drug stores and other therapeutic clinics where a person can go for mammography, pap smears, flu shots, skin biopsies, etc. These types of places have started to spring up in the past few years and operate as a "cash only" business (they don't file your insurance, you do it and pay up front). Current thinking is that these may be a business model for physicians in the future since they provide convenience without a lot of overhead. Fox may not be far off of the mark on this one, and you may be able to find a few of these places in the New York area.

Bogus information about Planned Parenthood is all over the place. Senator John Kyl of Nevada was on TV recently, stating that abortions account for 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does. This wild exaggeration is thoroughly debunked by Politifact:

http://www.politifact.com/trut...are-well-over-90-pe/

And look how Kyl's silly staffers try to "explain" this gross misstatement:

"CNN anchor T.J. Holmes told viewers that the network had received a statement from Kyl’s office saying that the senator’s remark 'was not intended to be a factual statement but rather to illustrate that Planned Parenthood, an organization that receives millions in taxpayer dollars, does subsidize abortions.'"

"[N]ot intended to be a factual statement"??!!Good grief!!Just when and how are we to know when Kyl is making factual statements and when he is blurting out baloney? Do Kyl's staffers think all of us just fell off the turnip truck?

Any info ditto?


Lucky you. My deductible was doubled from $3k to $6k along with a premium increase of 17%, prior to the ACA passage. Preventice care that was once covered outside the deductible is now either part of the annual deductible or at 80/20.

Kinda like when Gore kept getting caught in lies and I think it was Harry Reid said, "He doesn't mean to lie he just misspeaks and makes unfortunate statements"? Like that?

Sure, bring up Gore out of the past and that way you don't have to give any attention to the current controversy and Kyl's silly-ass statement. You people are all the same; you just pull the childish "so's yer old man" gambit and think that a worthy contribution to a discussion.

Hey Betrnun,
as I listened to your guy Obama calling for higher taxes on the rich, I wonder
how they expect to create any jobs in the private sector. The same sector that
provides the gov't with it's income. The gov't doesn't create money, oh wait a
minute I forgot the gov't printing press. The very people they expect to pull
us out of this are going to be taxed into hibernation. Again I say start sinking
drills everywhere feasable. I know your stuck on this shallow off shore lease
thing. That's not the answer. Back to Gore, he is part of the problem with the
economy today with his falsehoods(Mr.do as I say not as I do). Back to the point
of planned parenthood. No matter what was claimed or said, no amount of abortions
are exceptable when taxes are used. Taxes paid in part by us that think committing
abortion is committing murder unless the mother's health is in danger. So maybe
Betrnun my freind, you would be more comforatable living in communist China were
abortions are manditory for those haveing their second child.

LOL. Woo buddy! Except Title X has prohibited tax dollars funding abortions since the 70s. Read the text here: http://www.hhs.gov/opa/about/l...lation/pl91-572.html

Only 3% of what Planned Parenthood does is abortion-related. That money comes from other sources, never the government. 97% of what PP does is exactly in its name - helping people prevent unwanted pregnancies, thus trying to make all children planned for. You would think that with all the Republican talk about their idea of family etc that they would want to support having children when you're able.

And YOU keep marching to whatever tune is useful for yourself and other dupes who think that continued reductions of taxes on the rich is going to produce a cascade of new jobs. The tax rate on the very rich is the lowest it has been in 50 years and for many years the rich prospered under substantially higher marginal tax rates than those currently in place. If they created jobs under those conditions, what is to keep them from creating jobs under the much lower current tax rates? It is amazing how successful the rich have been in cultivating the kind of disordered mindset that produces such advocates as yourself in their behalf, even as the gap between rich and poor continues to grow deeper and wider than at any time since the age of the robber barons. Take a hedge fund manager out to lunch if you wish, skippy; I'll pass on that.

Dopie, instead of cute little one liners why don't you highlight the points you disagree with and make you arguments?
just for the record...

i learned soemthign this weekend.

there are some walgreens aropund the country, including a couple in nashville, that acctually DO offer some services such as pap smears and mamograms and other such things for women, and typically for remarkably low cost. there are clinics attached to the pharmacy, some run 24/7 others are just regular 9-5 hours, depending on the needs of the area the pharmacy/clinc is in.

so, while that one guy is still an idiot for the 'not intended to be a factual statment' deal, the thing from fox and friends was, believe it or not, accurate.

i was quite surprised.
