Health care wasn't really a BFD

Posted on Tuesday, March 23

Okay Mr Prez, it isn't enough that we are forced to wear seatbelts but yet not forced to wear helmets. it isn't enough that we are forced to buy insurance on our cars and homes. NOW you want to force us all to buy health insurance. WHEN are you going to stop forcing the people that elected you to spend more and more of our hard earned money? You already took 21 percent of my paychecks in taxes last year alone. You force property taxes on my car, bike, and home. You force me to insure those every month as well. You took my home away from me because after all the insurance and fees I wasn't able to keep up with the increase of fees on my mortgage. Now you want to fine me for not being able to afford to insure my health. What is next? Are you going to force us to have life insurance? Are you going to force us to insure our pets? All this and yet you do NOTHING about the state of our well beings. Our roads have more holes than your claim to birth rights in Hawaii (which you still have yet to prove). Our children are still going to schools where violence and weapons are an everyday occurence. Our neighborhoods are being ravaged by gangs and violence every day. Our military is still across seas fighting forwhat?! Oil? I know that this country has come up with better power solutions that combustion engines and yet you still do nothing to conserve our resources. Why don't you look at the REAL problems our nation is facing other that health care?! There are so many more larger problems that could have used your sway than a mandated healthcare reform! Look around at your nation and tell me honestly that what you use your power for is the right thing. Can you do it? I didn't think so!

WOW, you need to calm yourself down before you have a stroke and need to use that mandated healthcare. All the problems of this country didn't just start a year ago so it's a bit irrational to blame all of it on President Obama. And really, don't you think that someone has seen the documents that prove he is an American born citizen BEFORE they let him take the oath of office. I mean come on, this country is run by a bunch of boobs but neither party was going to let anyone take over the white house if he wasn't born in the United States.

A torpedo is an incredibly powerful weapon: difficult to detect, difficult to evade, and pretty much impossible to recover from once hit. Your argument contained its own torpedo, and that sunk its credibility. Smooth.

You have some serious blame misplacement issues dude. The conservative Laissez Faire policies on the Banking industry are what caused the financial meltdown, which is what I suppose "took away" your house. Thank Republicans and Conservadems for those. All the other insurance you whine about is mandated by the South Carolina state government, Obama has nothing to do with it. This also applies to almost all the taxes you complain about and the condition of the roads and Schools. President Obama is not the one propetuating the oil economy look again to the Republicans and Conservadems on that one. SO, when is the next Tea Party in the area? I'm sure you are one of the founding members, right?

Yeah, SC is all about Home Rule and States' Rights, we MUST have the right to do our own thing. Unless, of couse, we have a Democratic Black President we can blame everything on.
