    The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee’s health care legislation will give the Health and Human Services secretary the authority to develop “standards of measuring gender” -- as opposed to using the traditional "male" and "female" categories -- in a database of all who apply or participate in government-run or government-supported health care plans.

    There is no mention of Obama at all in this story. Your title is wrong and misleading.

    Quite a dishonest change of title. Here is the real title of the article:

    This is right out of the current liberal speak.

    I saw a talk show a few months ago where a psychologist suggested the medical community, as well as everyone else, stop using the sterotypical terms "male" and "female" because they place folks with "gender identity" issues into categories that are inaccurate and/or uncomfortable.

    peace to you:praying:

    A good example of what someone in another thread referred to as Ted Kennedy's compassionate liberalism. Let's try not to hurt the sodmites feelings.

    We've gotten ourselves in quite a dilemma, haven't we? We had a guy in High School who always felt he was a woman trapped in a mans body.

    It shows the Church how much work we have to do when we see people believing God has made a mistake or just not accepting who God made them to be. The devil is truly busy destroying minds and getting them to surrender to his foolish persuasion.

    We need to keep on praying for these people and hope they can get within earshot of the Gospel which saves.

    Part of it is how we are called to witness. You can't call a man a f@ggot then ask him to join the Church. We need to approach them from the understanding that were once sinners in need of salvation and the Lord saved us. He is willing to save you if you give him a chance.

    The musician at my best friends Church was g@y about 18 years ago. He contracted HIV and came to Christ. He is still living, looking well I might add, married with 7 kids. If God can feed 5K with a two piece fish dinner then he can certainly save a wretch like me.

    Rev Mitchell certainly twisted the heading. I hope he is not one of those Rev's that twists scripture as well. Mr. Mitchell obviously does not like Pres Obama, but I will say one thing, he is his own man. Why do you think George W is having a hard time getting speaking engagements. W had to tag along with Clinton up here in Canada for a spot on the tour. Word is his daddy asked Billy Boy to help his kid out. Shinninglight is a card carrying conservative party member in Canada but for now I think your new president is doing a great job, otherwise everything would have gone to the toilet.

    Ummm....Obama is a socialist. His policies fly in the face of individual liberties. Can't think of a bigger toilet than that.

    Bush was not a conservative, and was pretty inept in his presidency, especially with regards to domestic issues and spending other people's money.

    As posted by rbell,

    "Obama is a socialist. His policies fly in the face of individual liberties"

    Obama is not a socialist, he is a liberal. There is a very big difference. Chavez in Venezuala is a socialist. I believe in individual liberities but give too much liberty to an individual and then you have anarchy. Too much of anything is not good at all.

    I'm sorry...public ownership of our largest carmaker isn't socialism?

    The government replacing officials in private business isn't socialism?

    The government forcing all healthcare but government healthcare out of existence isn't socialism?

    The government's discussion of nationalizing our banks isn't socialism?

    Gee, all this time, I've had the wrong definition...

    He is a liberal marxist socialist who hangs out with dictators like Chavez. He is doing nothing but dragging our economy into debt with no return for the money. And I twisted nothing, the title is my prerogative.

    RevMitchell posts,

    " He is doing nothing but dragging our economy into debt with no return for the money. And I twisted nothing, the title is my prerogative."


    REv, you should read the financials before you post. Bloomberg just reported that Goldman Sachs just repaid the Tarp funds with extra on top for a 23% gain back to the people of the United States.


    Rev, starting a post is your perogative, but it doesn't give you the right to twist.

    Rbell, your government....thats right the U S govt...for the people by the people has taken part ownership in the car companies along with the Canadian Govt, Ontario Govt, Unions and Bond holders. We had our government take a large part in a oil company years ago called Petro Canada and eventually they sold it off to private shareholders. Your Gov't will do the same. The problem was that the Neocons(George W and friends) believed in the Wild west. You need something thats balanced. Right now looking from the outside in, the US has to add controls and make sure the people looking after those controls know what they're doing. Because, in the end greed will kill you. Remember Rome.

    1. He doesn't "hang out" with Chavez. Do you think they drink beer and go bowling or something? They both attended an OAS meeting.
    2. You twist and lie by a title that has nothing to do with the subject. You have the perogative to lie, but why do it? We get it...you hate Obama. But at least have some integrity.
