This is of course regarding the censorship by some colleges, not letting some speakers have their voice.

Bravo sir...
Surely, you don't believe him.

He only wants people to view him as tolerant. He has no intention of becoming so.

Why? Because the Democratic Party is in deep Ka-Ka, and is being dragged further to the left every month. So he drags out the "But we are the tolerant ones" argument.

Fail.

If only Obamas actions, were consistent with his words

Well, he spoke so he's obviously lying.

If you like your doctor...

Taken at face value, sure, those words are nice. But when you consider the fact that he subscribes to an ideology that does the exact opposite of what he's saying, the words don't mean a whole lot.

It's Liberal run institutions that censor speech. Liberty University on the other hand, a Conservative college, invited Bernie Sanders to speak, and made attendance mandatory.

Doesnt change the fact that your insurance company could have simply added a feature to your plan instead saying the plan no longer exist. its not like the plans are rare animals that die out, its a set of guidelines and the company simply choose to rename it .

Same goes for doctors who simply choose not to keep on patients.

I realize that there is a actually a large group of doctors that are ideologically opposed to Obamacare even though the reality of the Healthcare law was already realized considering the same principles were already in place in larger companies that shared medical cost.

Your doctor telling you it cost him/her more is a flat out lie in most cases.

No the rules werent, they were there to improve the plans that existed.

Obama's been saying that since before he was elected. Why do so many divert every topic into race?

Fail.
Actually, research has shown Democrats have shifted to the right and conservatives have shifted further right.
