"RG, why do 70% of Americans want Obama to be more "unAmerican"?" Because peopel are fickle and would love a dog and pony show in which the president acts angry but acomplishes nothing. Which is kind of ironic, because Obama was supposed to be more cool and calculated unlike his "reckless" predecessor. But I'm glad you want rule by the polls. You do know the AZ law has similar levels of support,a s did the Iraq war at its beginnning. Therefore, they are justified under the social contract.

"that never stopped the baggers from accusing Obama of the same." They are accusing him of pushing policies that will hurt the country, or passing laws that are unconstitutional. Thats much different from saying he's goign to overthrow the government. And heck, the left did the same with Bush. Wasn't he goign to invade Iran as a rpetext for suspending elections? Think I even read that here.

Remind me again RG, what laws did the Congress pass that are unconstitutional? Oh, right, HCR...man, get off that old saw please. Wonder how many Regressives will REALLY campaign on taking health care away from sick children. Maybe Rand Paul but even Bonnner is backing off that big time.

58% of the pthe people want hc reform repealed. Should we go by public opinion on this one as well? Care to make any other poor arguments, counselor? http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/health_care_law

"Think I even read that here." . . . . Perhaps you read the Philip Atkinson quotes I posted, lol. "President Bush can fail in his duty to himself, his country, and his God, by becoming “ex-president” Bush or he can become "President-for-Life" Bush: the conqueror of Iraq, who brings sense to the Congress and sanity to the Supreme Court. Then who would be able to stop Bush from emulating Augustus Caesar and becoming ruler of the world?"

"Wonder how many Regressives will REALLY campaign on taking health care away from sick children." No one is taking healthc are away from anyone, they are simply not taking money from people to buy insurance for those who can't. Get an argument straight for once in your life.

"58% of the pthe people want hc reform repealed." . . . . . Yes, but is that unAmerican or just fickle, RG?

"Yes, but is that unAmerican or just fickle, RG?" No, its showing your argument is idiotic. At one point, you want public polling to determine action ro law, and on the other hand, you are fine with congress and the prez ignoring public will.

"No one is taking healthc are away from anyone" - Repealing HCR will do that. Get an argument straight for once in your life!

"58% of the pthe people want hc reform repealed" but when they are told what is REALLY in it, not what Bonnner, Beck and Palin tell them is in it the number actually changes to 68% in favor. Don't you just hate it when people learn the truth? It totally undermines the Regressive agenda.

"Repealing HCR will do that." No it won't. Coverage hasn't been extended yet. Won't be for another 4 years. Secondly, they can still get health care from ERs, cahrity, or their own money. Pahetically dumb again, Les.
