Dying Daughter's Health Insurance Cut By Wells Fargo?

deathcow says...

Failing that I would live in Georgia (or another of 19 states total) within DAYS and my daughter would qualify for TEFRA insurance. (Katie Beckett insurance.)

Failing that, with this story on national news, I bet those people who bought a $650,000 vacation for the bus monitor would help out... and Wells Fargo would look like the biggest asses in the world.

Faux News Obituary Trashes Kurt Vonnegut--LiberalViewer

Yogi says...

"Vonnegut who failed at Suicide 23 years ago..."

To me that clinched it. You don't have to like his politics but shitting on Vonnegut is like the Irish shitting on Samuel Beckett's political leanings. A great writer is a great writer...doesn't matter what he believes it's how he puts it.

This point was made also by Fry defending his selection of Jeremy Clarkson on several episodes of Qi. Fry said essentially that Clarkson may be tiresome and irritating with beliefs, but he simply writes too well for him to just be ignored.

You may not like Vonnegut...but whether it's an obit or a critique, you have to respect the abilities of such a great American writer.

Actually, what happened is that they fired Andrew Beckett because he had AIDS. And that was against the law.

Oh and Grammar Nazi says it's phenomenal not fenomenal.

Definition Nazi says that's a spelling error, not a grammatical error.

Actually Definition Nazi says "Spelling Nazi says that's a spelling error, not a grammatical error."
The definition of fenomenal is not incorrect, it's non-existent, it's purely a spelling error. Yours was the definition error.

Bush Vetos the SChip Bill: Healthcare for poor kids = bad

deathcow says...

Thank Shiva that when my daughter had no health insurance the STATE OF ALASKA ponied up half a million bucks under TEFRA insurance (aka Katie Beckett) to pay for her liver transplant. I wonder how many kids Bush could have insured with his pet war.

My pleasure, qualm. I enjoy your posts and I think I've voted for most of them As the community gets bigger, maybe the arts and humanities will gain some ground.

In reply to your comment:
Thanks for the save on the Beckett sift, lisacat. It was odd to watch so much war-porn getting voted up, while classic and well-behaved literature died quietly off in the corner.
