and it's not the manufactured, temporary bullshit of the right-wingers. It is from the progressive side. We want healthcare reform - we don't want insurance reform. We want single payer but would settle for a public option if it is well formulated. We don't want to give more to the insurance companies.

We will not march lockstep for anything that comes out of the Democratic Congress. We voted for reform and change. We will not accept the status quo.

We like this President very much but we will not put our heads on the chopping block for the insurance companies, like we did for the big banks. If they cannot give us what we voted for, don't come up with some blue dog baloney and expect us to support it.

We do not want to be left without health care if we lose our jobs. We do not want limits put on how much insurance we can use in one year. We don't give a big shit about the stockholders who have bought insurance stock with the guarantee it will go up every year. That is all I have to say.

Glad that is all you have to say because your words are worthless and your utopian dreams are dying.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Futile snivelling, these Progressive idiots will get less traction with the Congressbeasts they helped elect than would a Muslim imam trying to get tax support for madrassas and a switch to Sharia law.  Kentuck and company - how does it feel to realize you've been complete tools?  Oh sorry, I guess that would require a certain level of self-awareness and some cause-and-effect thinking...

Everyone should recognize me and others like me are the smartest people on earth and just do what we say.  If it can't be about me, then I hope everyone is hurt by it not being about me.

I second this sentiment.

And I think that the "rebellion" that this DUmb**** is talking about is something along the lines of, "We'll try to primary you with candidates that want to tear the heart out of the American economy, just like we wanted you to do." :mental: :evillaugh: :loser:
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Of course there's rebellion in the air.

The rebellion of decent and civilized people against the tyranny of those who think they know more about things than we do; against those who think they're "entitled" to be supported by the rest of us; against the decaying hippie Establishment.

There's rebellion in the air.  We're the rebels.

It would be funny if the moonbats stayed home in the 010 & 012 elections because the Fuhrer and Democrats did not deliver on all their socialistic programs.

It's almost like the public option is a distraction to cover up the overall bill. Hopefully the lefties won't vote for a bill without the public option, and the GOP will vote en masse against any bill.
