Divorce season

So what does that say about what’s in your little pin-head?

That I clearly just went over your head? I debunked the public option (good idea or not) as being communist by suggesting that people that used the public school system or US mail system would be communist as well. What is pretty damn funny is you must have taken it seriously.

So again more to do with your comprehension level than anything else.

Ray- "And why do you get so upset when somebody calls a communist a communist?"

BCC- "As for the not caring part.... the past months have be arguments over abortion (don't care) and calling a public option and or single player system communism, socialism or whatever (agree with it or disagree with it fine... call it socialist or communist and you are a fear mongering clown). Which I guess makes us communist for allowing public schools to exist along with private. I hope none of you communists went to a a public high school or college. You are going to hell too if you've ever used that communist US mail system. Personally all I use is UPS because I'm a capitalist."

I referred to claims of communism as fear mongering. So I'm thinking the only way you would actually think I'd be serious about calling the US Postal system communism... is if you actually think it is.

Which again... says a lot about you. I'm 100% against the fear mongering and used the US Postal system to make just that point. Man to have to spell that out is just sad. I know there can be misunderstanding of meaning on a typed message board. But to miss that... wow.

Seriously go back a read that again very slowly. No hypocracy there. It was a 100% anti communism fear mongering post.

Yes comrade bcc, you definitely are on drugs. 

Go ahead and try to spin it any way you want, but you are the biggest hypocrite around.

Anyone who thinks the Obama/Pelosi/Reid health care plan isn’t a socialist pile of horse crap has to have his head up his arse.

Now pull it out comrade and smell the coffee…

Quit being such a BOZO!  Without a doubt a public option is a form of socialism!  Medicine accounts for roughly 20% of our economy...that is a big portion to give the govt a large part of...

I'd like to see certain things changed like:

1. Citizens with preexisting conditions being able to purchase affordable insurance
2  Illegal aliens be given the minimum to keep them alive, and deported back to their home country that very night!    We know longer have the luxory to treat the world with our limited resources!  As a bonus, having a policy such as this will discourage new border-hoppers as well!  The corporations will just have to hire American workers, or move elsewhere.

 
so·cial·ism    (ssh-lzm) KEY

NOUN:

1 Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.
 
2 The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which collective ownership of the economy under the dictatorship of the proletariat has not yet been successfully achieved.

Fathertime!

Yes, McCain on paper has been for reforming our political system to take the money out...but the bills he has passed actually led to the campaign process being so complicated that normal people can't even try to run because they will inevitably be in non-compliance with some aspect of the convoluted campaign finance laws and their superior-funded political insider opponent will knock them out of the race for that. McCain is a prime example of good on paper, [snip] in practice. And yes, he was totally bought out as well.

If you think a single payer option is communism but social security and medicare aren't, you do need to take a step back and think about things. We are basically socialists now, and far far away from being communists.

EDIT:
Well really a blend of socialism and corporatism now...which seems an awful lot like fascism....

He's not alone...

The thing is, he's about as far from radical as you get...that's the point. All this fear-mongering about socialism is retarded because Obama is in all likelihood less socialist than his republican predecessors. He's about as mainstream and moderate as you get. He might talk about change but he hasn't done anything that mainstream republicans wouldn't have done.

Nice to see typos on the face of it. And non Russian Russian.

SNDIG spells what again?

Hitler needs to be on the other side to reflect his right leaning policies

That statement is retarded!

I've seen this guy some where....wait, now I remember

What has he actually done that is in any way radical? Liberals are pissed off at him because he promised to be radical but in practice has been conservative. Obama's policies are closer to Bush Sr. than to Clinton, and Clinton was by no stretch of the imagination a radical.

The only thing I can imagine that might be perceived as radical is the bailout strategies, but those were fully supported by McCain and every other bought out politician.

Back to the original subject matter of this thread - I just saw on the morning news that more people die on Christmas Day than on any other day of the year, most commonly from heart attacks and strokes which are brought on by all the added stress.

So you have a much higher chance of getting divorced or dying during Christmas - sounds like the season to be jolly to me!!

[Ray]

Dying? Perhaps...

But getting divorced during Christmas? No, because the courts and lawyers are mostly all closed for the holidays...

Your reasoning is “retarded”.

Don’t just look at what he has been able to screw up so far. Look at what he would like to screw up!

Look at his Marxist ideology (“spread the wealth”), his voting record (most liberal in the Senate), and don’t forget his big leftist allies that are in control of Congress (Reid & Pelosi). I think it has been made quite clear that Obama will sign any piece of crap health care legislation that is sent up to him.

But if Obama is your man, then nothing is going to convince you anyway…

I don't like Obama. Just pointing out that calling him a radical is erroneous. I'm a firm believer in actions speaking louder than words. Call me old fashioned. I guess not believing politicians' speeches makes me retarded. We all know how trustworthy they are.

You know how many jokes the liberal side of the media is cracking about the dems and Obama recently? Got a "radical" president and dem control of the congress and the libs still haven't gotten a single thing they want, but did get a lot of things they didn't want (more troops in afghan for starters, bailout of wall street but nothing for main street really). It's actually somewhat hilarious. I'm having quite a bit of fun laughing at the people who thought Obama would bring change.

Signing a health reform bill that has been created by a totally bought out house and senate (insurance companies and hospitals are huge lobbyists) does not a radical make. You do realize that libs wanted nationalized healthcare and believed that's what Obama would propose, right? Instead he leaves it to congress.

I thought his voting record in the senate was almost blank. I'd have to check up on that.

I'd stop wasting my breath. You'll never convince the religious/conservative right that obama is not radical just like you won't convince a liberal dem that Bush wasn't a radical. Both parties have done way to much marketing. It's like telling a kid that wants a happy meal he's been brainwashed. not gonna matter.... i still want my toy!!!!!!!
