Overturn Of Affordable Care Act Would Embolden The GOP

The GOP would rather have a coup than an election. They are doing everything that can to ensure they are the only party in the US. They crow about freedom all the time and will be the first to take it away by force. They ended Posse Comitatus for a reason. And the same party who decries detention camps would be the first to establish them. If you just look at Virginia where it is essentially illegal to protest. You cannot speak nor can you carry signs. If you do you will be arrested. As a woman you have no right to speak about unapproved subjects. Look at how the GOP treated Ms. Fluke. And now with the Tayvon Martin case they will let murderers go. And they will arrest no one. And if the protests get too loud they will disperse with tear gas. Why are they so eager to pass conceal and carry laws with background checks.

As a veteran I was taught to know your enemy. And the GOP is the enemy because they are against everything the flag stands for as they wave it. When I heard yesterday that the states that have passed or want to pass voter ID laws represent 63% of the electoral vote I am certain they plan to take over.

Get down on your knees and get ready to pray to the theocratic gods the GOP will install. As for health care on the top few percent of the country will have it. The local churches will appoint their little "witch doctors" to take care of the uninsured.

It is more important to see what is going on behind the scenes than what is being presented in the show.

Another is that Democrats will be able to say, we tried it your way with the insurance companies and now we have no choice left but to go with single payer. And they would have the country behind them.

And, fyi, the Democratic party doesn't have to be abolished for the top 1% to work against the rest of us for all practical purposes. Do you think they give a damn about political parties beyond using "the show" to distract people? They do not.

and wealth.
We must be willing to stand with Occupy and others against them and their hatred.
It is our only hope to turn the tide of predator capitalism to a system of democratic socialism as the founders intended.

And this is the same court that installed the Shrub and turned over private property to corporations in the Kelso decision.
