I think they have proved that there isn't anything they actually hold sacred, or won't do in pursuit of power. So why not go full Canada on the health care thing?<br /><br />I even think Democrats would vote for it. And they can declare victory. <br /><br />And if they price it correctly, it can be a huge gift to the insurance companies they contract to run the whole thing.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02557598539640390108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-78647532346072503082017-02-27T14:09:34.270-06:002017-02-27T14:09:34.270-06:00All we have to do is let them sell insurance acros...All we have to do is let them sell insurance across state lines.<br /><br />----And their precious state rights?<br /><br /><br />That robo-message is still on ancient loops airing from under the GOP HQ under the Rushbo pyramid.<br />I find it amusing that anyone would think the party of "get government out of the way", Corporations are people, Climate change denying for corporate bucks.<br /><br />That the GOP would use Government to regulate the Medical industry. They will regulate the people that use the medical industry, no doubt.<br /><br />But to equal the level of assurances of consumers from the Existing ACA to the intangible greatest Trump care delivered by Republicans. <br />If you believe any of it. I am going to have to go all apprentice on you and FIRE YOU. Not just as a concerned citizen, but Unemploy you from the Sentient being force. <br />As characteristic of the GOP. Some have been on the TV espousing their ability to take things down (tear apart). Displaying the inability long standing ideology that they slave to feed the beast and not assist the beasts prey (us). <br />Because if they please the beast, it will not eat their children. Rather, provide elite living positions for the, to continue feeding the beast.<br /><br />The Republican ideology of small or little government does not have one iota of Godly family values to act it behalf of.<br /><br />But as depicted in the post,<br /><br />Why are the insufferable "paid hack activists" they rail of outside of their own all booked to be reheard over and over as they are aired 24/7 across the nation on the right wing networks from Cable to AM to the net.<br /><br />Smircon... pointed to the ass boil on the Conservative face. The conservative response is, but ass boils are for asses. <br />Rhetorical problem solved,,,,,,,,?<br /><br />Robthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15736678459663803707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-18291213492184294232017-02-27T10:57:27.405-06:002017-02-27T10:57:27.405-06:00Attended Citizen's Town Hall (Senators and Rep...Attended Citizen's Town Hall (Senators and Reps refused to hold them) on Friday. Two guys in MAGA hats, Trump t-shirts, and campaign signs. <br /><br />The following are some of the responses from representatives of the "economically anxious working class that had no where else to turn and resents being dismissed racists, bigots, and stupid for their vote":<br /><br />Speaker: Sexual Assault Victim voices concerns over Trump's history with women. Response: Stand Up and Wave Campaign Signs in her face.<br /><br />Speaker: Elementary Public School Teacher voices opposition to coming charter school focused agenda. Asks who in this audience supports charter schools? Response: Jump up and Yell "Right HERE!!" <br /><br />Speaker: Sub-Saharan, Islamic, African refugee opposed to the immigration bans due to its direct effects to her family. Response: Chant "TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!" as she is speaking.<br /><br />Now I am sure, like Trump himself, our media will dismiss these two as outliers unrepresentative the poor salt-of-the-earth conservatives that circumstances forced to vote for Trump in overwhelming numbers in the Primaries (funny how that fact went down the memory hole) then again in the general election. <br /><br />As I pointed out the day after the election when the "anxious white working class" lie was being branded on the results. These people believe EXACTLY what they believed when they were younger, healthier, employed, and enjoyed the financial and societal security created from a combination of New Deal Democrats and Eisenhower Republicans rebuilding a world suffering a decade long depression with large parts being smoldering heaps from WW2. <br /> trgahanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718897286384990852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-41377841335241158422017-02-27T07:05:38.959-06:002017-02-27T07:05:38.959-06:00DG:

Have a tough foreign policy and alienate all of your allies! Ok, now Mexico is refusing to buy US corn and Australia is working on trade deals with China. Trump just lost money for US companies--ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE. REBOOT.<br /><br />2. Be a tough racist superstar and harass all foreign nationals and deport all illegals. Ok, now crops are rotting on the vine, the housing industry has slowed down, hotel prices have gone up, and tourism is down. Trump just lost money for US companies--ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE.<br /><br />3. So you've reduced gun laws. Making it easier for terrorists to buy guns. Why do you want terrorists to own guns--ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE. REBOOT.<br /><br />4. So you've run on a populist platform. That means white people expect to be rewarded for their Trump votes. So you can't take away their healthcare and jobs-ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE. REBOOT.<br /><br />5. So you think we need school vouchers huh? And they need to go to Christian schools, because freedom of religion, correct? Well now people are using those vouchers to go to atheist schools and Madrasas--ERROR. ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE. REBOOT.<br /><br />6. So you think Obama was lazy huh? Did you know that Trump is vacationing every weekend since he took office? Did you know he's been golfing a lot? And you're paying for it? Also you're paying for his five children and three wives as well. FINE. DO NOT CARE. SUCK IT LIBS.<br /><br />Did you also know he orders his steak well done with ketchup?<br /><br />WHAT.<br /><br />Yes.<br /><br />WHAT.<br /><br />Yes.<br /><br />FUCK IT. SHUTTING DOWN FOREVER IMMEDIATELY.Lit3Bolthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10407681812425172672noreply@blogger.com
