I made a RW friend realize he is being lied to! (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023954161)
One of my dearest friends moved from NY to North Carolina. He is registered as an independent but has always leaned heavily to the right. GW and Cheney moved him more to the middle.
Since he moved to NC he has had a daughter,(first child) he and his wife have new jobs and he has very little time to keep up on current events.
On FB he started posting all of the bullshit republican talking points about health care, Obama is just as bad as Bush and how personally his rates went way up and he is pissed.
I called him and we talked and he got very defensive. He told me how his health care cost at his job skyrocketed. How he took his daughter for a checkup the other day and now it cost $120 instead of the $20 he used to pay. He lamented his deductible was now $3000. He was angry by the end of the call and being one of my best buds (and because I didn't want to agitate him any further) I ended the conversation with my tail between legs......and immediately began researching wtf was happening in NC.
The next time we spoke I told him some of the things I discovered about his republican led state and the ACA. (Most of you know cuz you are way smarter than me so I won't bore you.)
His agitated voice wavered a bit, but than I remembered one of our biggest friendship bonding points.I asked him, "Remember in the build up to the Iraq war? Where you and I both felt like we were the only two people among our all of our friends that were against the war?! How they lied about EVERYTHING?...........THIS is the exact same thing."
The next time we talked he was still very upset he has to pay so much for health care BUT HE WENT OFF ON THE REPUBLICAN OBSTRUCTIONISTS! He apologized and even shocked me to the core when he said, "and Obamas not that bad."
I told him he would have "eventually figured out he was being lied to" and I was "just glad to help speed up the process."
He laughed and I hung up the phone with a smile.
This is one friendship those son of bitch repub liars did not break up.
Actually one of the better bouncies as of late. At least there was a conversion. :-)

13. no
we caught holy hell from almost every one we know before we went into Iraq because we were against the war.
I was gently but strongly trying to tell him THIS TIME he was on the wrong side of history.
He knows I would not have brought that awful time up unless I was 100% sure about the ACA. It made him find time to research the lies he believed about the ACA. All it takes to see through the republican bullshit is to pay attention, do a little research and not believe everything you hear.
Do your research!!!!!11!!!!eleventy!!!!

(Most of you know cuz you are way smarter than me so I won’t bore you.) = There’s no way in hell I can figure a way to make this the rethugs’ fault so I’ll tell the other idiot DUers how smart they are.
How they lied about EVERYTHING?...........THIS is the exact same thing. = Those are not the droids that you’re looking for and that $120 you paid is not the fault of Obamacare.
All things considered, especially considering the current crop of Bouncies, this was a fairly entertaining made-up story.

This revelation is no surprise. All RWs are being lied to, by owebuma.

As the cACA Obama HellCare becomes better known and more hated the bouncys are going to rain down and get more and more ludicrous.

That's true, the bouncies always increase when they are in trouble.

Exactly Jukin. I smell the sour odor of desperation at the dump. Even the MSM can't cover for obubmles anymore. Every time another person loses their policy, then finds out how much an obumbles policy is gonna cost, the anger across the nation builds.... right in time for the 2014 elections.
I'm betting that the MSM will drop the GOP wanting to delay the mandate to pass a debt ceiling bill in 2014... hoping the sheeple will forget all about it. Next year ought to be very interesting.

The NC thing is a giant lie. Of course no one on the island can say differently without getting TS'd.
The claim is that because NC didn't expand Medicare, then the cost of not doing so caused Obamacare to be higher. But even if what they said was true, the increase would only trigger up to around 5%, and premiums are going up more like 50%+ at least.

Surprising. I was going to make that point also, but I doubt that is true.

Kind of funny we are in the middle of watching the lies if the democrats being exposed and they claim it's the repukes who are lying.

I agree that the dam is about to break and we are going to be deluged with bouncies. These pathetic liars amuse me when they are agitated.

Try again DUmmies! :diebouncy:

1. DENY EVERYTHING.

And even the eavesdropping NSA analyst broke out in applause.

He was talking to you, DUmbass. I guarantee he was fully aware he was being lied to.
