Just curious as to if any of you listen to him and what your thoughts are. I listen to him everyday and think he's a breath of fresh air, he bashes both parties as they all need it, and I like the fact he's a self educated guy and...

lisan23 The transcript doesn't show it at all. It was a horrible interview. I watched it with my mom, who is actually a Glenn Beck fan, and she agreed. But to be honest, I rarely watch ANYTHING on TV. I get my news online from articles, I download TV shows I want...

Question: Does anyone here know how much a member of Congress pays for Health Care Insurance and what benefits the policy covers? I was just wondering if they pay for their plan out of their own pocket or do they get their...

lisan23 Annie's post below just about covers it. From what I read, it's not an expense they can just write off. They have access and pay the same amount as all other federal employees for their benefits.

While reading the Book of Mormon, this so-called "other testament of Jesus Christ," I noticed something very eye-opening, something that gives away the true nature and origin of this book. As a preacher I spend great deal of time...

lisan23 Lol... I'll make sure to tell my dad he's a member of a cult. Actually, you're saying that most of my family is part of a cult. I was born and raised Mormon, I left without any problems. My family has no issue with me not being Mormon. We all still get along...

lisan23 I'm not Mormon. I'm not Christian. I'm agnostic. You are the one who out of the gate judged an entire group of people who I don't think you know a lot about. You slammed them with a label, and in the end I just don't think you have the authority or right to do...

lisan23 They do pay for their healthcare, at least according to the federal government's website. They pay a premium and then have copays and deductibles as well.

I have been reading through discussions in the politics section today, and it seem like every other one is about health care. I am amazed at how panicked people are that things might be changing, and it seems like no one really...

lisan23 They kind of already do. Over 100,000 people a year in the US die because they can't afford healthcare.

lisan23 Who gave you the authority to decide who is and isn't Christian? Let me get this right, despite the fact that they read, teach, and believe the bible to be the word of God (as well as the Book of Mormon) because they don't believe like you that somehow gives...

lisan23 Jones, your site is completely dependent upon someone believing the authors interpretation of the bible. It doesn't discount the obvious flaws of the bible, and you cannot expect a book written by MAN to be perfect. Unless the entire book was written by Jesus...

lisan23 As for your first example, Esther 1:33 states "...from the great tower, at the time the Lord confounded the language of the people, and swore in his wrath that they should be scattered upon all the face of the earth...". So the very first verse agrees that the...

I read an article on yahoo last night that disturbed me. The article can be found at http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090612/ap_on_go_co/us_senate_disclosures (I cannot WAIT until I can copy and paste...). I know it wouldn't be...

lisan23 I agree. It would be so easy for reform in the healthcare industry to turn in the wrong direction. I did read that Dodd's wife hired a lawyer JUST to make sure that they don't violate any ethical laws and that they maintain the separation of her business...

I see a lot of people whining about poor service from a company. I worked in customer service for years, primarily in the telecommunications industry. (First for Sprint, then Qwest.) Sometimes you get a genuinely nasty rep - it...

lisan23 So true. I once considered writing a book on how to call customer service. So many people don't know when to call, how to state their issue, and how to get it resolved. I was ALWAYS nice when I worked as a rep, but it was definitely not easy. And while I was...

lisan23 Lol, between myself, my husband, and my brother we have about 18 years experience working in customer service. Maybe I will do a blog about it. We all have a LOT of stories.
