Speaking of rightwing paranoia . . .

Romney will be surprised to hear that.

Actually, a majority of Americans accept manmade global warming as reality.

It already is.

No, I do not oppose initiatives to investigate fraud. However, you're assuming that the fraud originates and resides in the individual making the application. You're going to have to begin by proving that this hypothesis is true. This is what investigations are all about. If you've never...

And how does one know that the application was fraudulent and the information false if there is no investigation? Ranting without providing any course of action is at best self-indulgent. It makes for water-cooler conversation but accomplishes nothing other than feed the perpetual whine about...

Db is trying to confuse two separate issues and you bring Ferguson into it? Jeez.

Because the "overloaded public servants" are approving the applications. If you wipe the rolls of every recipient who does not qualify after review but do nothing to change the process, then in a few months you'll be right back where you started. Treat the cause, not the symptom.

That's the knee-jerk reaction. The person submitting the application is not to blame. The person granting the request is to blame. If you guys really want to fix the system, then fix the process rather than demonize the applicant. The applicants can't draw disability if their requests are never...

Again, it's not fraud if the recipients qualify. But the right blames the recipient -- who applied and qualified -- rather than the judge who declared that the recipient qualified. Sterilizing the recipient isn't going to remedy the situation if the judges continue to qualify those who do not...

Ouch!

You have a real thing about douches and douche bags and douching. Does your wife know about this?

And yet they qualified.

Doh does not approve of being told to "investigate it yourself". Be that as it may, if all of these people have been determined to qualify, then the whole basis of this arc is just another right-wing rant. If someone is standing on the street corner handing out thousand-dollar bills, are you...

And yet an estimated 22 veterans die by suicide every day. Clearly there is much more to be done.

And of course conservatives who block their every move . . .

Which of course does not address the inconsistency.

Which I'm afraid does not answer the question of how many of these people do not qualify to receive benefits? Doh wants the FACTS!!

And how many of these people do not qualify to receive the benefits? And if it's 8.8m, where do the 14m come from?

Actually since you made the statements, I was sort of hoping that you could explain them in your usual douchey way. But apparently not, douchey or otherwise.
