I am a fierce advocate for the right to own personal property.and to protect it by ALL means.<br /><br />At the end of life for me it is a fiercely personal (as opposed to the OBAMA FART ideology of the government determining when I should die, ie: rationed healthcare) decision as to how and when I choose to die. Rather than burdening society with the cost of caring for me when I can no longer care fore myself (or afford it) and be a contributing member I have determined to make that decision on my own. I will know when the time is nigh and the government can go f**k itself.<br /><br />Anymore questions?.<br /><br />Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-40301088452003299252013-12-04T14:25:47.956-05:002013-12-04T14:25:47.956-05:00You're hoping for homelessness?

I read the article you linked to and it says people's opinions shifted because the "heard" stories about people losing insurance policies (when the reality is they lost them because they were crap) and because of the negative press surrounding the roll-out (when most people get insurance from their employers and aren't even affected). This will all pass.

The hollowness of the claims are shown in Jersey's repeated lie that Texas is really a blue state, and it is gerrymandering that makes it look red. One need look no farther than the Texas governor vote: immune to any gerrymandering.... and "red".dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-29617018862521830202013-11-29T10:33:48.911-05:002013-11-29T10:33:48.911-05:00"does show the people's support of [Obama..."does show the people's support of [Obamacare]..."<br /><br />Let's fact-check this, shall we?

They may be able to pick up as many as 6 seats, and then they'll still be unable to change the game. In the House they may be able to hold on to what they have, but they can only gain so much more. Regardless of overall national poll numbers, the only ones that count in mid-terms are the local numbers per race. If overall numbers meant all that much, the GOP would currently be in the minority in the House, which they lost by 1.4 million votes last time around.<br /><br />But the American voter has a notoriously short memory,l so... ya' never know.<br /><br />JMJ Jersey McJoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15426560061830038806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-10753142631418741382013-11-27T18:47:30.993-05:002013-11-27T18:47:30.993-05:00The fact that Obama pushed the 2015 individual man...The fact that Obama pushed the 2015 individual mandate until after the 2014 mid-term elections thoroughly speaks volumes, in my opinion (not that I'm actually rooting for either of these 2 clowns, mind you).Will "take no prisoners" Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02315659209094683602noreply@blogger.com
