sorry, no. You guys believe the World will die, fucking die, it's all over, like Health care isn't important because you cannot survive here- ain't no medicine for that. and that it will all happen if we don't do something Now.

R's wouldn't act on it because we know it's at least 90% horseshit, and it doesn't matter what we do if China and India do nothing. So your little game is silly.

If the man truly believes we are at a tipping point and has done so little he deserves, hell, not just impeachment, or simple imprisonment for treason- the man is ignoring things he needs to do to save the World. he should be tried at the World Court. Why do you hate the World?

Is this something you "know" because Jesus told you? Just trying to get a sense of whether we're using the word the same way.

I kind of thought a "kill the jobless" program to reduce unemployment was coming at that point....

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Translation: I got no answer. I agree if Obama really believes we are at a tipping point his administration has behaved horribly. I guess he was lying to all of us to get our votes. But that's weird because I am a sheep whose vote is captured already until I die, so why bother lying to me?

In order to translate you have to be fairly fluent in both languages, and I think that's where your problem is.

He chose to do health care instead. Where have you been?

I'm in the class of people Obama admits he wants to fuck, as opposed to you, in the class he has fooled he won't harm. If, for purpose of argument, I'm not fluent in English I just that much more impressive.

IIRC, health care that'll kick in 'round about 2014, after lots of Democrats have had a chance to lose elections in the interim. But they got better CBO scores, for all the good it did in persuading people like you.

Getting people hc with the trade off being we'll all die shows a lack of leadership. It would be like if w had followed bubba's lead and had his only reaction to al queda attacks being spending 8 years drafting a plan for the next president to follow. W didn't do that he solved the problem by invading Iraqistan.

[Ray meets this Canadian in Mexico]
I remarked that there seemed to be quite a few Canadians in Mexico.
He bristled. "Why shouldn't there be?"
"Out of proportion to your numbers, I mean. It was just a neutral observation."
"We're quite free to travel, you know. We can even go to Cuba if we wish."
"I'm not making myself clear."
"Do please make yourself clear."
"Well, there are two hundred million Americans and twenty million
Canadians, and my country is closer to Mexico than yours, but I get
the impression that there are just about as many Canadians here as
Americans. At this table, for instance."
"You're not the only Americans. You people just stole that name."
"Look here, why don't you kiss my ass?"

This Obama is the one we'll see until the election next November. The other one was the guy who was trying to get what he could through the Hill.

I didn't hear the speech but given the current climate in Congress what hope did he voice for another big chunk of spending? Not saying this from any bias standpoint, just wondering if he just said "we should spend more" or if he somehow made it seem like it wasn't another big price tag.
