yes,rmseek1234,our tax dollars are wasted daily,we may not live to see a health plan at the rate congress is moving , a public option will not solve anything, free healthcare has been going on for years,the waste of tax dollars will never end.

Actually intellec-our tax dollars will be taking care of them TWICE then. For their stay with 3 hots and a cot,AND for the insurance EVERYONE will be required to have. I don’t think Blue Cross would look at their line of work as legitimate self employment. ACORN,maybe. This is the part of the number that Obama is counting in his “uninsured.” Scum.

I am just like Sheltiedad the catch and release program is just as bad as them being out there the first time. When they get out they will spread out in the wind and never make it to court. And the tax payers dollars it takes to imprison them is a waste of money for sure. we need something like the old penile colonies to ship them off to and let feen for them self. Damn Dark ages sounds bad when you spit it out like that huh?

And these are the folks that our hard earned HONEST tax dollars will go to support under the health care plan. Gee,I get a tingly feeling just thinking about it! Go get that STD treated on MY tax dollar. Go get those teeth that are rotted out from meth fixed on MY tax dollar. Then go sell yourself and your drugs some more. Great plan there Obama!

Great job Mobile police for removing these dregs of humanity from the streets, at least for a few hours until the “catch and release” program kicks in.

And talk about UGLY… if these were the only photos they could print, imagine what the other 14 looked like.

And people would pay to have sex with them? Yuck.

And people would pay to buy drugs from these scumbags then put the substance they gave them into their bodies?

Chapter 678 in the dumbing down of America saga.
