"Better than Nothing"

Better than nothing ...... ?

Is it?

12. I think the point was pretty clear.
And the response was as substantial as the OP... which is kinda sad.

Yes... enjoy your victories, getting your simple OPs that most everyone agrees with on the GP.

Wow... I didn't know how much this stuff mattered to you... sorry, didn't mean to offend... I now understand why you lost your shit the other day with me. Take care.

21. Implicit in the OP ....

Surely a queen knows that ..... right?

3. Not in my humble view.
Mandating everyone to pay protection money to the very insurance companies that are torpedoing effective reform is ABSOLUTELY worse than nothing.

10. They'll spin it as: "This is what the Democrats gave us."
It won't be entirely fair.

It won't be entirely wrong.

It will certainly work.

7. it's as sad as " at least he is better than McCain" . I can't believe
the Obama followers think they are complimenting their guy when they say that nonsense.
