		<description>Thank you, my dear.  I was really looking forward to seeing my birthday up on ThinkFast, but either TP can&#039;t read a calendar or they have &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triskaidekaphobia&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Triskaidekaphobia.&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Also in regards to CVS, I had to go to CVS to pick up some of my allergy meds and guess what? When I was getting the Benedryl, every box was outdated. Five boxes of Benedryl film strips and every single one of them was outdated.&lt;/em&gt;

And not just the meds.  I recently bought a couple of boxes of Barnum&#039;s Animal Crackers at our local CVS, and &lt;em&gt;they&lt;/em&gt; had expired two months before.</description>

		<description>Sen. Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont just completed his regular Friday segment with Thomm Hartmann. I missed some of it due to work, but he made a point about 3 billion (a week&#039;s worth of waste in Iraq) would be enough to build health care facilities and fund healthcare for all that don&#039;t have it (I may have some of the numbers/statistics wrong, but you get the point).</description>

		<description>Wayne, you&#039;re right.  It&#039;s all about perpetual power (and I hope that they take such a smack down this November that no one remembers what a Republican is other than they attempted to take down America - and, again hopefully, failed).

Also in regards to CVS, I had to go to CVS to pick up some of my allergy meds and guess what?  When I was getting the Benedryl, every box was outdated.  Five boxes of Benedryl film strips and every single one of them was outdated.

I have to go back tomorrow for one of the nose sprays that the insurance wouldn&#039;t let me pick up today, no, I have to go back TOMORROW to get it (fu(king insurance...get insurance companies out of healthcare!) so I am going to see if they put them back on the shelf.

I HATE Walgreens and prefer CVS (I travel extensively so I need that nation to nation option) but honestly.  Come on.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Ms_Joanne Says:

Exit Stage Left, that Brad guy on Verdict is so obnoxious. He sits there with this smug smile on his face and lies through those pearly whites of his.

June 13th, 2008 at 11:11 am &lt;/em&gt;

I like Abrams, too, but he has fallen into the trap of believing that you must present both sides of an issue in order to discuss it.  As Keith observed just last night, having &quot;balance&quot; means giving equal weight to both the truth and the lies told against it.  Brad, and one of Dan&#039;s other conservative talking heads, Cliff May, serve no &lt;em&gt;useful&lt;/em&gt; purpose as far as public debate goes.  They frequently use straw man arguments in their blind defense of conservative &quot;values&quot; (which are overpriced in my book, as they are worthless).  Conservatives have no interest in governing or any ability to do so.  They want only to rule.</description>

Please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but I was under the impression the AG was charged with enforcing the laws and prosecuting those who break them, not with spewing right-wing talking points about how feels about them.

Oh come on now, after 7 1/2 years of Bush and you still have delusions of justice?

		<description>Unbelievable @ 105.  I agree with you about teaching materialism, and I definitely agree with the need for course and curriculum revisions to make the learning more active and interesting (I am an instructional designer), but I think offering monetary incentives an interesting concept, especially for those who are the Barely Have&#039;s in our country.

Think about offering some HUGE prize for graduation?  A large gift card for games, clothes, whatever - something that person might never have but for selling drugs.  Something attainable as a means to the end.  Something that keeps the kids focused on the end result - getting the best education they can, making the end result the goal (which would mean getting them to focus on the long run, not just the here and now).  Having some kind of incentive for each school year to boost it.  I don&#039;t disagree with that.

The thing is that not everyone is motivated by money.  That said, those who don&#039;t have are, I think, probably more motivated by money.

I kinda like it.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Exit Stage Left&lt;/strong&gt;, that Brad guy on Verdict is so obnoxious.  He sits there with this smug smile on his face and lies through those pearly whites of his.

Between watching his smug smile and Pat Buchanan&#039;s constant yelling, I wrote Abrams and told him that I am not interested in the WWE of politics and wondered if he got partial credit (for the key demographic) when I tune out (and change the channel) once the yelling begins.

Shame.  I like Abrams.  But some of his talking heads suck.</description>

		<description>When I read some of these posts, I am reminded of Scott McClellen&#039;s &quot;permanent campaign&quot; mantra...for that is what it is.  It is either a permanent horse race or a permanent race of some kind.

There is nothing about this administration which is for US.

There is nothing from some of the Congress critter which is for US.

There is only divisiveness and pure politics which is for the purpose of divisiveness.

And the saddest thing about all of this is US, We the People, who buy into this (of which 22% of the people still do) and will, yet again, vote against their own best interests.

That story about Susan Lindauer is incredibly disturbing.  That IS Gitmo at our doorsteps.

There is nothing the criminals in this administration won&#039;t do.

Be afraid.  Be very, very afraid.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;And the beat goes on Says: Nancy Pelosi: Criminal&lt;/i&gt;

I have, and I&#039;m sure a lot of other people have, wondered why the Nanster declared (what seemed like immediately) that no impeachment table would be set. I could only conclude that she and others were involved in a cover-up of never before seen proportions. I think that the fact that she broke that out so quickly is a telling sign. I&#039;m thinking it goes very deep, beyond warrantless spying and torture. I believe the videotapes of the interrogations is getting closer.</description>

<p>I have, and I&#8217;m sure a lot of other people have, wondered why the Nanster declared (what seemed like immediately) that no impeachment table would be set. I could only conclude that she and others were involved in a cover-up of never before seen proportions. I think that the fact that she broke that out so quickly is a telling sign. I&#8217;m thinking it goes very deep, beyond warrantless spying and torture. I believe the videotapes of the interrogations is getting closer.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=5017354', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Wayne A. Schneider Says:

If you are unaware by now that the right uses fear as a campaign tactic, then you have not been paying attention. Republicans frequently run for office by telling you who to be afraid of.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


That&#039;s because they know that only Republicans think America is too WEAK to defend itself from criminal &quot;terrorists&quot; without giving up what makes America great.

I personally believe that we are strong enough to simultaneously defend ourselves AND remain true to our values.

Republicans are just weak, scared, and easily manipulated by fear.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Democrat Soldier Says: 
Give it time. People will forget that it was the Republicans who brought us the highest debt in history, failed fiscal policies, wars of occupation, congressional gridlock, and the first successful terrorist attack on American land that caused the deaths of thousands. For some reason, the American public seems to forget facts of his nature over time.&lt;/em&gt;

The propaganda campaign has already begun. Last night, Dan Abrams had a panel that included one hateful asswipe named Brad something or other. He very vociferously blamed the price of gasoline on the Democrats. This and other B.S. will be spewed over and over until the dumbasses start believing it.</description>

We have Drug Marts that are an Ohio Owned Company; if at all possible I never shop at a big chain. 

Are Drug Marts a chain? Are there any in Cincinnati, FR?&lt;/em&gt;


Good Morning :)  

The farthest down they reach is two stores in the Columbus Area.  They are many a Northeast Ohio Chain, headquarted in Medina, OH.  Sorry, none in Cinni yet...</description>
