5. I watched the first 15 mins because I missed them this AM.
I found it pretty funny that Brownback wasn't the Biden solution in Iraq! (3 State solution)

I'd like to see him get the R's nomination, then the D's could be the pro-war guys.
Of course he wont...

10. The GOP is out to stop Health Care before it ever
is discussed if one our Candidates wins Presidency.

"Socialized Medicine, Socialized Medicine.

Those Liberal Democrats will raise your taxes.

13. Yet there are Independents
who still think they should be given a fair listen, right here on this board. :crazy:

That's what Republicans have been saying since FDR and probably before. They don't belive in government so government will never work when they're in charge. They don't deserve anybody's vote.

15. I have no problem with them stating their POV.
But if any of them say "universal health care aids terrorism", and they will (some already have), then it's lights out for that motherfucker.

16. Huckabee..an excellent flip-flopper
in the debate Huckabee suggested that uninsured Americans should be able to purchase the same benefits that members of Congress now have, and suggested that the reverse would also be acceptable! then I went to his website, this never mentions the healthcare benefits enjoyed by members of Congress nor supports ending the practice of cherry picking among insurance companies.

17. Dems should point out you don't have to pay healthcare insurance
premiums - so what if your taxes are raised, then?

The weakness with having employers provide it is that the average worker thinks it's "free" when they should know the value so they have some idea what they are actually being paid.

12. You Have Entered The Twilight Zone...
It's a world where all brown-skinned people either want to climb fences and force you to eat their hamburgers, or fly airplanes into your heads or just don't know their place. It's a journey into the mindset of black and white...good and evil...certainty and superiority...yet are scared to put on a uniform or do the heavy lifting themselves. It's a place where puffing up one's balls is part of a mating ritual.

After seeing most of the Democratic candidates the other day, I almost (I said almost) feel pity for the Repugnicans...what a lame bunch of losers and liars they have to choose from.

Now let's hear more about that Hezbollah Health care system, Mitten...

:rofl:

18.  I saw this great lecture on CSPAN by a Pakistani governor
who totally deconstructed the War On Terra, pointing out for one thing, that there is a difference between terrorists with a global reach and local militants. Duh!

And, apart from being brilliant, he made me ashamed of the campaigning hucksters.
