    Obama is a lying, marxist abortionist who puts perverts and sexual deviants in his admin to over see schools.

    Palin didn't lie about the death panels.

    Then what are they and how are they different from the death panels at the private insurance companies? Secondly, how will they operate with no public option?

    Turn off CNN and start reading for yourself. The death panels statement was in reference to government rationing of health care.

    Death Panels are not the topic of this thread.

    Does it matter how many "promises" were kept if there are significant unkept promises?

    The list of kept promises is pitiful compared to what he has failed to do.

    Most notable is the lack of transparency, the Chicago style politics of intimidation, and the buying of Congressional votes with hundreds of billions of tax dollars.

    Broken promises? Obama is a thug.

    Well, you're not going to address the issue. I did a search of your posts for the phrase "death panels" and came up with this thread. It appears you believe Mrs. Palin in regards to death panels. Here's my point with this: If you don't believe the site when it talks about death panels, then why do you believe it when it talks about Obama?

    What difference does all that make if the topic is Obama's broken promises?

    Paul, why don't you deal with Obama? Why do you feel the need to divert the topic? Are you scared to discuss the lying socialist that is our president?

    Okay, for some things there may be a good reason for not fulfilling the promises due to changing circumstances or he may have not been able to for varying reasons. I'm sure there also those he chose not to fulfill, and that is wrong and he should have kept them. If you haven't noticed, I've been very critical of Obama on some counts.

    Typical switcheroo practiced by liberals when facts aren't refutable - a common occurrence on this board.:sleep::sleep:

    Why don't you look above at my post. What do you think about the promises you did keep?

    If you want to start a thread about promises he is keep and death panels that is your prerogative.

    So you are willing to give "the one" a pass on his broken promises and campaign pledges?

    What would be the good reasons or changing circumstances that would justify breaking his pledge to veto any bill with earmarks?

    What would be a good reason for hiring lobbyists as part of his staff?

    What would good reason for conducting healthscare negotiations behind closed doors - rather than in the sunshine of public view?

    Since I didn't make any promises, this is a moot point!

    However I believe you meant to say "--the promises he did keep", did you not?

    If so, what application does it have regarding my comment - you don't refute or discuss the OP allegations, but sidetrack the discussion just as I stated. :BangHead:
