after this would you trust the RNC to reform health care?

[The Rabbi]

I did not say that at all. I only said what I said.

Keep on spinning though.

There's no spin. Obama has cozied up to the banks and big companies when it suited him, and thrown them under the bus when it didnt.
The largest corporate contributions from Wall St went to Obama in the election. To paint Republicans as tools of corporate America is plain contrary to fact. They are tools of Middle America.

And you deny spin with more spin?

Please feel free to point out where I have spun anything. Obama and his crew have rushed to pump billions of taxpayer dollars into big corporations, mainly as a payoff to the unions. Big Wall St money went to the Democrats in the last presidential election. If you have something to refute either of those statements, post it. Otherwise stfu.

I have yet to see a single piece of information that supports the republicans had any interest at all in healthcare, except maybe lining their pockets from K Street. Nothing, nada, no a single thing and yet the buffoons on the right post 10 word replies confirming what? Their own lack of thought!

But I will post a few links I have reviewed or consulted for the interested. I do not have time to educate the stupid. Plus they may remain stupid; you know what they say about horses and water.

You're welcome Democrats. Scott Brown will now swoop in and save your sorry a*ses on health care. Now just unlock those meeting room doors and let em in. Seriously,how could Reid & Pelosi manage to f*ck up a Super Majority? Yikes!

for you to post that and call ANYONE else stupid, is massively ironic

It is too easy to label and not think I guess.

Anthony Rapp is a can of shit then. A halfwitty rejoinder in an attempt to form the illusion of wisdom. To quote Oscar Wilde, "There are witty people, and those who QUOTE witty people."

This being said...

You libs use labels all the time, but squeal like a baby pig when they're used on you and you don't like them.

The real purpose of labels is to give a handle to large chunks of data, philosophical concepts and descriptive titles in which you can quickly convey positions, and information.

For instance, calling you a liberal idiot conveys two very important concepts. One, you support socialism and collectivism, eschewing individual rights and property as well as describing your lack of mental accumen.

It's accuracy infuriates you, so you choose to attack the label instead of the intelligent thing and recant from your failed philosophy and smarten up to the realities of this world that collectivism can never succeed.

The issue of labels comes up quite a bit among my group of friends, because we are all people who don't fit well into any predetermined group. However, labels can be a useful communication shortcut to convey certain important information. Therefore, our consensus is that the idea is to consider labels as a guideline, not as a cage. They are tools, not masters.

Snickerdoodles?

 

[sboyle24]

Snickerdoodles are the most patriotic thing since the Civil War.

 

[Big Fitz]

Sure why not? And an Elephant Ear Cookie too. They're kinda close.

 

[Big Fitz]

Well, thanks for reminding me of some more useless trivia. The invention of the Chocolate Chip cookie.

Used to be chocolate cookies were the rage around the year 1900. During a state fair cooking contest, I dont' remember the woman's name (this IS off the top of my head) didn't have time to melt the chocolate into the dough, so she thought she may use the heat of the baking to melt it throughout the cookies. Of course, it did melt, into the pockets we now know and love as the world's favorite cookie: the Chocolate Chip cookie.

mmmmm... now I want some too...

 

[sboyle24]

mmmm... cookies...

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Much more than i do the DNC at this point. My God,what a disaster. Seriously though,how could Pelosi & Reid manage to f*ck up a Super Majority? That ain't no easy feat brutha. Don't worry though,Scott Brown's on the way to save their sorry a*ses. Go get em Mr. Brown!

 

[Cecilie1200]

And fudge? I'm not a big chocolate fan, but I do make some of the most sinful, addictive fudge on Earth.

The GOP does not want anything to do with HC reform. They are confident that a NO! concerning health care will take Obama down.
