    You stick to corporate sabotage then? Not sure why the rich people are whining so much about poorer people
    being able to have healthcare...oh wait.......yes I do. Right wingers think they own the country. You just said it. My bad.

    Maybe if you saw this country as valuable and precious and righteous you wouldn't want so badly to subject it to your ill conceived machinations and stressors.

    It's like a precious child or a revered parent or grandparent and deserves to be protected and treated with respect.

    And who won in 2010, in a Republican landslide victory? The people do NOT want Obamacare... the Republicans are the only ones standing up for the people.

    You want something from the House, you have to make a deal. Just the cold fact of reality there, the "care" gimmick is out of order because we ain't lovers and this ain't romance. It's just business, don't take it personal.

    Pretty much.

    It's funny how the Republicans always seem to win during the midterms. I think that has more to do with Democratic turnout. Take away the midterms and the Democrats will be in complete power for a very long time.

    Midterms always favor the party that lost the last election's popular vote. Always.

    Ahhh...and you think the GOP does that? Okay. Seems to me the ones behaving like spoiled little children is the right but, hey, I never did understand the whole right wing bubble thing anyway so, nothing new for me.

    It doesn't matter what the House wants.

    Obamacare is the law.

    In order to defund that law, it still has to go through the Senate and to the President's desk.

    There is NO OTHER WAY for the house to defund Obamacare. I'm not sure why this is such a difficult concept for the right-wing to understand.

    So naturally, the Republicans are throwing a "Hail Mary" and don't seem to give a rat's ass what kind of damage it does.

    OK... So what are the Democrats demanding in exchange for keeping the government running? I've asked this countless times but never get an answer.

    No, he's just a loudmouth idealogue who makes a BUTTLOAD of cash telling sychophantic dittoheads exactly what they want to hear regardless of how loosely it resembles actual reality.

    Serial divorcee, addicted drug user (damaged his hearing tossing down thousands of pills each month), who can't keep weight off regardless of how many surgical procedures he gets.

    Yeah... perfect right-winger.

    Well, the truth is the best defense. The cons ought to try it sometime.
    The hysterical diarrhea of intransigent buffoonery coming from the right these days is killing their electoral chances in 2014 and beyond.
    The people are tired of a gang of right-wing extremists who have tried to highjack our country through fear and hate.

    People still pay attention to Rush? I mean, you'd think that a public figure who spends his entire career acting as a voice of morality getting caught up in a major drug scandal while hypocritically coming down hard against exactly those kinds of things would end said career. Or at least make the viewers think twice about trusting him. It's like if Chris Hansen was caught molesting children, or Joe Lieberman was caught cursing someone out on a Call of Duty server. And it's not even just that, it's that his predictions and statements since then haven't been much better. Remember where he went on air and lied for a solid week about Sandra Fluke's birth control meds, saying some of the nastiest, most bigoted (*)(*)(*)(*) I have ever heard on air? Or where he thought Romney was going to win? And here he's basically grasping at straws, trying to say something his audience will like when the facts don't support him. And then this:

    ...Not sure what to say other than that I am disappointed in anyone who takes this guy seriously.

    Right wingers generally live in LaLa land, inside their bubbles so, yeah, they probably worship Rush, and Hannity, inside their FOX bubble. The guy is half baked, and is over impressed with himself. Apparently his minions, are as well. I'd say you need better leaders. (just a suggestion though).

    Those bastards! How dare they hold out for absolutely nothing! The next time the GOPers pull this (*)(*)(*)(*), they should just add single-payer as their demand. Fun time watching right-wingers' heads explode. :p

    Did someone remove the parts of your brain responsible for communicating in anything other than baseless jargon? :roll:

    So the only reason people can possibly want the government to function the way it should is if they want freebies? I want the government to function because I pay my taxes and that's what I expect them to do. I expect the GOP to stop crying and holding the government ransom so they can get their way. Completely childish. Obamacare, like it or not, is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing law. It's law, it has made it through the rounds, and it is law. Instead of crying about it, deal with it and continue to move foward.
