    So, as election day nears, many of us are keenly aware of why people do indeed vote for the complete oppposite of what would actually benefit them.

    It wasn't the republicans who passed a law forcing me to buy a product of their choose and then making me face penalties if I refuse.

    Funny, since there is no such law. Were you too lazy to shop around for your own product of choice? By the way Republicans passed the Bill, they simply made a lot of excuses afterwards, I like how they deny it was based on one of their own plans.

    Wasn't the right that worships people like Warren Buffett while making millions on tar sands and tax evading.
    Wasn't the right that has crippled the poor by giving them cradle to grave.
    Wasn't the right that raised taxes on the poor and middle class this year.
    Wasn't the right that signed the NDAA
    Wasn't the right that is allowing illegals to pour into America so the rich can have cheaper workers

    Just the one that is so very easy to point out and prove, I have not really thought abou the rest yet.

    What are you talking about, it was started by a Republican deity. Ronald Regean. And if there werent hired for cheap labor they would not be here even now. Immigration is another issue the right sent me packing over. Say one thing, do another.

    Pick a topic and let's have at it, but don't just regurgitate...or has the right wing "Keep America Stupid Campaign" left no room for honest debate????

    I agree we should have always enforced our immigration laws. The Demo should have insisted on closing the border even if the Republican buisness owners wanted the cleap labor.

    Did Obama raise taxes on the poor and middle class? Are the middle class paying higher taxes today then a few years ago? Payroll taxes and the ACA tax.
    Isn't Obama's ACA going to cut SS. I bet y'all aren't teaching this to your voters.

    Yes, that is funny and you are correct. I was trying to be funny and refer to airborne as flying.

    No, but I do believe it can be aerosolized....

    Ok, and there is a very significant difference and being aerosolized is not an evolutionary step to airborne.

    The response you got to this post from the female with the pointy hat tells me that listing a bunch of damning facts all presented at once just allows the pointy heads to brush them ALL off and dismiss your valid points with a mere swipe.

    its more effective to make them address each point one by one and hold them to their lapses and grill them when they fall short of a good explanation.

    Just a friendly tip.

    Sorry for offering it without asking first if you even wanted it.

    A doctor is infected with Ebola in Guinea, and ends up in New York. How did he get there? Walk? No, he flew. If an infected individual flies, so does the disease.

    No the right as their Billionaires they worship.
    They are not crippled, if the right had their way the poor would have starved to death by now, hmmm sounds like a right-wing plan.
    The right has raised taxes many times, you seem to believe the myth that only Dems do that.
    Sign the Bill, correct, set it up to begin with yes that was the Bush administration, so close and yet so far away.
    Sure it was, Ronald Raygun gave them amnesty and the Bushes did little to nothing to stop the flow and the current Congress does not want to vote for any funding to deal with the border issue, not to mention that no Repub will really ever do anything about the issue, their owners love cheap labor.

    I just follow those who say they know and repeat what they say if it sounds right.

    Wht do you do?

    Just make up stuff and then try to defend it?

    Of COURSE you do!

    That's what ALL liberals do.

    They tap dance instead of standing their ground with a solid factual argument.

    They have little use for facts.

    There is talk that ebola can be transmitted via casual contact and airborne contamination.

    I haven't heard it stated as unequivocal fact.
