I've never been a republican or a democrat. I've been unaffiliated since I was able to vote. You seem to have a problem with that. In fact you seem to be projecting your own downfalls on me without merit.

Fox News sheep are Fox News sheep no matter what they call themselves.

I think you better study up a bit on that stuff on projecting that you copied and pasted. You still don't quite grasp it.

Does anyone realized what these scumbag liberals in congress are doing?

They just wanted to lower the age of medicare and of course only the low life poor non working non successful people among us will get any benefits from this scamcare bill.

The ones who will pay for the losers HC, us, those of us who have worked and EARNED our own healthcare and of course the low life losers who will qualify for this medicare part will be costing the states million and millions.

We cannot afford to take care of 55 year old losers who have never worked a decent job to earn their own healthcare.

So Harry, HELL NO TO THIS NEW SCAM CARE BILL.

Nice try, but you kinda forgot to let out the facts that not EVERYONE will qualify under your lies. Only losers will qualify and the rest of us will get the bill.

I have never seen such vile politicians as I have with the current democrats.

Harry Reid - "This war is lost" "The surge has failed" Comparing people who disagree with his healthcare plan to slave owners.

Baron Hill - referred to people at town hall meetings as "political terrorists"

Alan Grayson - tells a former VP to ST*U, says republicans want Americans to die quickly, and compared America's healthcare system to the Jewish Holocaust.

There are many more, but the Democratic Party has sunk to a disgusting low in American politics, and this is how they act when they are the majority.

Once again you fail to let facts get in the way of your opinion.

It's a buy-in to the Medicare. People will pay a premium above and beyond their Medicare deduction on their wages.

There are plenty of employed people out there who don't have employer-subsidized insurance and who can't buy private insurance at any price because of pre-existing conditions or who can't afford private insurance because the cost puts it out of reach for many employed people as they age.

Oh, and the charge that only decent jobs have employer subsidized insurance.....you once again prove how misinformed you are. Construction isn't a decent job? Many construction workers don't have insurance. Many people who work for small businesses don't have insurance. Many retail workers don't have insurance. Many of the people who do the work that makes your life pleasant don't have insurance. You present yourself as nothing more than an elitist snob every time you disparage the working people who don't have employer subsidized insurance.

But, that said, do you not understand who really subsidizes that employer provided insurance? We do, those of us who purchase the products or services provided by that employer. We pay higher costs for goods and services do the those employers can afford to buy those insurance policies for their employees. Why, it almost as if we were taxed....

No, he didn't. He compared those who would vote against his health insurance bill with those who voted to support slavery. His comments were about historic legislation. Whether that is a good analogy or argument is debatable but if you are going to debate what he said, get it right. Don't spin it, don't misrepresent it and don't believe those who spin and misrepresent.

No I have the facts. As I said, only the poor will be able to get any free healthcare because you have to be below poverty level to get this for free.
If you are poor and never worked a decent job you are qualified to get this new HC for FREE.

Sure, some can buy into it but the idea of giving millions of people who never had a decent job free HC is WELFARE and is stealing from the rest of us.

Guess some need to work a second job to buy there own healthcare so some of us do not have to pay for someone else's mistakes.

So were the ILLEGALS that worked for Harry Reid considered slaves to him then or not?

Since he was paying them to clean up after him wouldnt they be considered slaves then?

None of which, if true, changes the fact that what you said was a misrepresentation of what he said.
