| Anonymous Coward User ID: 47286622  United States09/29/2013 02:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It was modelled after the failed system called V.A Healthcare. We all know how much of a train-wreck the V.A is. Veterans killing themselves on average 20 plus a day, hundreds of thousands of backlogs, lost records, etc. Not to mention the absolute filth of the Veterans facilities. BTW... those enrolled in the V.A are exempt from Obamacare because the V.A meets or exceeds Obamacare requirements. Scary yes? |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 37061786 United States09/29/2013 02:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | . Quoting: Anonymous Coward 47591402 The only way you would be a Republican as a woman in this day and age is because you have a rich Republican husband supporting your ass. So seriously, spare me the very offensive single woman playing in the ocean breakers because if she's single, she is doing it all herself probably with gov help if she has kids. . Pull your head out of your ass, AC. Single self-employed women who earn their own fucking money are republicans. Single women who don't buy into the bullshit story of Global Warming are republicans. Single women who care about the rights of the unborn who cannot fight for their own rights are republicans. Single women who don't want government peeking in every fucking aspect of their private life are republicans. Single moms who don't want their children enslaved by $17 Trillion of National Debt to the Chinese are republicans. Oh, and single women who don't want to get permission from Obama for a checkup are republicans. . The Chinese don't own $17 trillion of our debt, they own roughly $1.2 trillion of it. I'll add one, Single moms who can't do basic math and fact check before posting must also be republicans. You're a dipshit. Do they own the 37 billion dollars of U.S. foreign aid spending in 2013 and so on ? |

They voted on a budget proposal that requires obama care to be postponed a year. The democraps have said they will veto or vote against it. Thus nit agreeing to the budget proposal which will shut down the government So basiclly either obammy agrees to postpone a year, or he agrees to shut down the entire gov because he isn't getting his way with o care not having funding. Make sense ? |

twistedcherry  User ID: 2750629 United States09/29/2013 02:35 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | MSNBC has the live vote, so far its 210-190, it will pass the house and obviously the senate will not pass it, thus sending the goverment into the first shut down since 1996!!! How can these idiot democrats say that the republicans are holding the nation hostage with a futile attempt at stopping obamacare when the nation is OVERWHELMINGLY against obamacare and is desperately asking somebody to step in and stop it??? i am sooo sick of these lying disgusting politician scum bags.. : Since they threaten that during these shutdowns people who are on Social Security, military members, government workers and contractors, etc. may not get paid then they, the Congress, who are also government workers should not get paid either. Maybe with that threat hanging over their heads they'd be more willing to work together. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1464057 Canada09/29/2013 02:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is stupid and sets a bad precedent. I understand you all hate it, but it's the law. The congress passed it, we all know that the house and the senate. The lpresident signed it and the Supreme Court interpreted it as constitutional. it's the law. we can debate if its good or bad but it's the law. There are many who thinks social security and Medicare is bad but they are the law. If republicans want to not fund a law because they don't like it, what will keep democrats from tearing down the second amendment or not funding the government. It sets a bad precedent for the future, one that republicans are setting and can come down to bite them so hard that it will change the country to a scary level. Again democrats are holding ground because they are funding what's already a US law, they have the merits and most Americans see it that way. Republican Party is going to lose on this issue and be less compeitive because of this stance. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 463662 It is a very disingenuous argument that the House and the Senate passed the bill when in fact the Democratic Party passed the bill simply because they controlled both the house and senate. Even with control over both branches, they still had to twist arms, bribe and blackmail politicians, and use gimmicks to get it passed. And the Supreme Court ruled the government had the power to tax. LMAO you're a fucking idiot. Show me some proof. What insight could a Canadian possibly have on American politics? First, I'm not that poster but I fail to see why, in today's world where we meet and discuss with each other daily that as a Canadian I cannot have insight into the political workings of the world's (until recently) super power. That poster was wrong on the House but the Senate is indeed Democrat dominant and the whole taxation thing, I'm pretty sure is a reference to the 16th amendment. Now, either humbly accept that you are not the sole nation that can think or never speak of another country again. Even better, try to stop identifying through segregation... you might just learn something about your fellow human. ..suggestions, of course. |

Make sense ? Thank you! Just got home from party and am not sober. Had to come to glp for cliff note version. Wth? It's the middle of the night. Demoncraps give me cramps. Repugs are equally repugnant. Why can't we come to a resolution without a revolution? It is obvious we are stuck. Katz game. I vote we scratch the whole thing and start over. Obama should agree to postpone since we cant agree to agree to disagree about disagreeing. Last Edited by ruser on 09/29/2013 02:56 AM ruser |
