Well, how can someone be a senator and not be well-versed in how MarAzul heats his well house?

barfo

You didn't even read his post. Although I wouldn't be surprised if you thought a 100w light bulb is the same as a 100w heater.

How many SEIU members does it take to screw in a 100w heater?

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Funny, he seems shallow and completely uninterested in the Constitution. He voted for making the 100W light bulb illegal to sell. I ask him where in the Constitution granted him and Congress authority to decide
which light bulb I can use. He said it was good for the environment and that was all the authority he needed. Then I said, do you know of a more efficient 100 watt electric heater I can use to keep my well house
from freezing during the cold months? He said, do you use the light bulb to heat your well house? Fucking idiot!

You think he doesn't follow the constitution because he voted for making 100W light bulbs illegal to sell?

BTW-I love my 100 watt light bulbs, should I be stocking up?

 

[jlprk]

If you think light bulbs are Communists, just hold it all night and don't walk outside to your outhouse.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So, your complaint about Wehby is that she doesn't turn down patients who can pay for their procedures via public funds. Would you be praising her if she had not performed surgeries for those on public assistance? I doubt it.

She did surgeries on children who didn't need it. She got conned by a nut job woman. Police and the DA were able to see what this woman was doing but a doctor couldn't? That's a little scary.

 

[jlprk]

I can sympathize with your thinking that night light is Communist, what with your hiding from Muslims up on your hilltop. Don't listen to anyone. You just do what you have to do to survive.

LEDS are great! The price is dropping fast.

You're trying to make me read back a page and I'm just here to wing it.

Really? That's a big accusation with real consequences. If true, she shouldn't only drop out of the race, but she should face criminal charges and be immediately disbarred.

You should start a thread about it. I'd like more information, because you typically aren't one to fall for political talking points.

It's not me who thinks that. It's MarAzul who thinks that.
I think a light bulb is a light bulb. Because it is tremendously inefficient, most of the energy is converted to heat rather than light.
That's why MarAzul can use them as heaters. That doesn't make it a good idea, however. MarAzul's claim that it is not possible to have a more efficient heater than a light bulb is kind of absurd; he's saying that an incandescent light bulb is maximally inefficient. Which is close to being true, but not actually true - they do give off some light.

No, the GOP shamed the idiotic Dems into shelving that foolish law they passed.

 

[MarAzul]

Wehby? No. I still think she is a bit of a hypocrite to campaign against something yet take money from it at every opportunity she gets.

ummm, it seems to me, if she rejected kids on the Oregon health plan, that would be a problem. On the other hand I am please she will vote against Obamacare. I sure as hell would not vote for
here if she supported it.

I ask Merkely if he intended the tax levied on employers that provided healthcare for retirees and dependent to produce revenue? Then I ask him why he thought it would produce revenue,
because it seemed to me it was intended to force employers to quite providing insurance, sure seems to be working that way. He said it was Completely Constitutional.
Shallow man, he is shallow. Performing service for kids on the Oregon Health plan don't seem to comparable to the dufus act Merkely can put on.

You're the one being absurd.

100w space heater

100w incandescent light bulb

LOL

 

[The_Lillard_King]

I like the fact Wehby is pro-choice

I don't like the fact she is a stalker . . . but does that really make her unfit to be a senator. Some of the best senators were wacky behind closed doors.

It's not a political talking point, it's a news story. Google it. She (and some other doctors) got conned into performing unnecessary surgery on kids. Apparently 'Mom says he has a brain tumor' is enough for a pediatric neurosurgeon to start operating.

barfo

P.S. She can't be disbarred, she's not a lawyer.

Well that explains how my easy bake works

 

[PapaG]

What if the "nutjob" was actually right, Wehby doesn't do the surgery because she thinks the woman is lying, and then the kid dies because they were sick? You act as if being a doctor is an either/or situation.

 

[PapaG]

P.S. She can't be disbarred, she's not a lawyer.

Fine, she should lose her license, then.

 

[PapaG]

It's not a political talking point, it's a news story.

You act as if those two things are mutually exclusive.

Should I explain to you what mutually exclusive means?

 

[barfo]

This is a great argument. Doctors should do whatever surgery a (foster) parent demands, regardless of any medical indications or their professional judgement?

As long as you don't explain what disbarred means.

Sure, why don't you. That will keep you busy for a few hours.

You know, you are exactly right to chide the idea. It is precisely why they should not be fucking around deciding what we need to have available. They have no authority, don't need any, and should not be
wasting their time on trying to figure out why I or you need a light bulb.

 

[PapaG]

Sure, why don't you. That will keep you busy for a few hours.

Here is a quick life lesson for you, since I don't want to educate you on more complex issues.

A 100w light bulb isn't the same thing as a 100w space heater.

 

[PapaG]

As long as you don't explain what disbarred means.

I'm conversing with at least 3 different people right now. I made an error. I owned it.

 

[The_Lillard_King]

Where in the constitution does it say I can't smoke crack? Gov't needs to stop wasting their time on what I can and can not smoke!

 

[PapaG]

This is a great argument. Doctors should do whatever surgery a (foster) parent demands, regardless of any medical indications or their professional judgement?

Well, that's what the DA claims, right? We all know DAs never, ever, exaggerate things, and they certainly never lie about things.

Uh, that's exactly was what I was saying, silly.

Not a big deal, just found it amusing that you were offering to explain something very basic after he corrected you on something very basic.

Carry on . . .

 

[PapaG]

Where in the constitution does it say I can't smoke crack? Gov't needs to stop wasting their time on what I can and can not smoke!

The state of Oregon says you can't smoke crack, not the federal government. You're an attorney, right? I assume you're familiar with the 14th Amendment, as well as the 10th Amendment? The federal government can prosecute you if you sell crack across state lines, though. The states gave them that power.

LEDS are great! The price is dropping fast.

I put LEDs all over the boat, but I put a 100w light bulb circuit in the engine compartment to keep it heated when at the dock on cold damp nights.
