    If you were designing a healthcare plan what would you have it include? Who would be included? Who would be excluded?

    Sorry, Crabby.

    You are merely misdirecting with all your questions.

    You are not the classroom teacher here.

    Go read up on the plan that is being pushed by the Dems against the will of the majority - with all of the bribes to the unions and members of congress.

    That and the outrageous cost - that they are lying about - is the topic.

    "Party of no" = one of the dumbest things the democrats ever thought up.

    :laugh: The Party of NO has said nothing but NO for over a year. They have earned the title. They even say no to ideas they presented in the past that are now parts of bills being debated. They simply have decided to say NO to anything Obama or the Democrats propose. Of course they are hoping this will give them political gains ... but is isn't good for the country.

    We need politicians in both parties who will work together as they did years ago for the good of the country.

    Crabby - the poster of lies.

    The Republicans offered plenty of ideas of their own - all of which were ignored by the Democrats - the party of arrogance/tax and spend/lies/deception/bribes.

    Please give an example of something they proposed in the past that they now say no to. It doesn't count if that "something" is wrapped up in tons of other legislation and the other stuff is what they are really saying no to.

    For example, if previously the republicans proposed to tax pet turtles, and now the democrats have a bill that taxes cattle, books, corn, and turtles, it does not count that the republicans are saying no to a tax on pet turtles.

    Specifics were given in the beginning.

    Why don't you give specifics to back up your assertion?

    Is it possibly because you don't have any? (you haven't done your homework, maybe? That would explain why you assign homework on the BB instead of researching and debating anything yourself)

    Waiting for an on-topic, specific response.

    Maybe but most likely he is just being a true liberal. They like to walk around in obscurity. They do not want to be identified because then you can nail them on their failed ideas. So they a void answering direct questions and deem labels as divisive when in fact it is liberal ideas that are divisive because the lack any truth.

    We need politicians in both parties who will constantly gridlock, causing nothing to get done.

    Congress, STOP PASSING BILLS! Stop taking away my civil liberties. Stop taking away my money. Stop violating the Constitution that you swore in your oath of office to defend and uphold.

    As I recall I noted in 2008 on this Forum that Obama was a baby killing Marxist, as did a number of others. Now the Marxists in the democrat party having finally found their "messiah" in Obamay are converting this Constitutional Republic into "The Peoples Republic" as quickly as they can.

    I believe those blind followers of this person are guilty of treason just as he is. Furthermore, by blindly following him they become participants in his efforts to slaughter the unborn and euthanize the elderly through his death panels. The Apostle Paul writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit aptly describes these people:


    Romans 1:22-32
    22. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
    23. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
    24. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
    25. Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
    26. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
    27. And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
    28. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
    29. Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
    30. Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
    31. Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
    32. Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

    Well, if it is as big a disaster as predicted then the program will be canceled quicker than it was passed.

    It is designed to take years before the harm is felt.

    We are supposed to be like frogs in water while the water slowly heats up.

    Riiight.

    Point me to a government program that is ever axed quickly. Especially if wealth re-distribution is going on.
