Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

The Kemp Mill Mikvah is one of the newest, nicest, high-tech, and serene mikvas in the country located only 12-15 minutes away. No need to fly to NY.

ACA isn't broken or malfunctioning, it was designed to fail, and the sooner it's thrown out, the better.

Unfortunately for the Rs, it doesn't seem like they have a well thought out plan to replace it. They are failing miserably in Game Tactics (Ds were always better at them).

I would recommend to them putting together a committee of industry experts (including insurance, medical, etc.) to come up with proposals within 90 days. They should also hire some good experts at game theory, so that they have the right strategy in selling and implementing whatever is decided upon.

The problem with health insurance, as we call it, is that it is mostly not insurance. Every plan provides coverage for catastrophic illness/injury, chronic illness/injury, and necessary prescription drugs, but also elective medical treatment and elective prescription drugs. Anything that covers elective events is not insurance.

The ACA requires everyone to have both insurance coverage and elective medical coverage. And taxes subsidize those who can't afford the (exorbitant) premiums. The first thing to do is to separate the insurance coverage and the non-insurance coverage into two separate products. I feel strongly that insurance coverage is something everyone is the USA should have whether they can afford it or not, but without automatically including elective medical coverage in the wrap.

none. this one was built after that issue. 
The article included Chabad as the shul destination, however the comment was about NY travel for a mikvah. No need when there are upscale locations in/near D.C.

Sure go ahead. For the positive put millions that have health insurance now that never did before. There will be more than enough of you to come up with the negatives.
Please only put in the pro section, things which have real numbers. We know that millions more now have insurance, but all are being forced into it. I want to know how many people wanted insurance, couldn't get it before ACA, and now have it. That's the only number which u can put on the pro side

It was (I hope) a poorly crafted joke about the whole Freundel scandal. And that wasn't Chabad, that was Kesher's former rabbi in the mikva next to Kesher.

This comment is amazing. Can't decide if it is laugh out loud funny, awful, or clumsy curiosity.

Now who has their head buried in the sand.  ::)

"Julian Assange said "a 14 year old could have hacked Podesta" - why was DNC so careless? Also said Russians did not give him the info!"

I'll agree Trump has his head buried in the sand.
Even a 11 year old could have "hacked" Podesta.
Why does Trump think it takes a 14 year old?

Ask JTZ he'll tell you the FBI is an apolitical organization.
They sided with crybaby sore-loser Obama despite no evidence?
That was purely coincidental.
