Obamacare, aka health care, has the ability to affect nearly every aspect of your life.

Are some of you really this stupid or do you just play that way on the internet?

And Ill bet they called it fear mongering when we warned about the ill affects and lies of Obamacare a few years ago. Look who was right, and look who was wrong. Stewart and his pot head fans can get bent.

There were many who want doctors as part of obamacare have your doctor discuss your ownership of guns with you.

So yes, it is relevant.

What does your response have to do with my question?

So defeating Obama Care is the NRA's new mission, anyway seems rather ironic that the NRA is promoting health care don't you think?

Gun ownership is a right.

Health care is not a right.

Who indicated that gun ownership wasn't a right, just questioning the NRA's mission that has changed dramatically over the years.

Rather hypocritical for politicians to be preaching about health care at an NRA convention since the NRA has done everything they can to restrict the CDC from research on guns.

Guns are not a disease. CDC researches germs, they have no standing.

Not hypocritical when doctors are asking if guns are in the house. That was asked of me and I said my problem is Physical, not political.

Obamacare is the fulcrum to usher in the total nanny state. Gun control, drug war, tobacco war, food control, etc.

If the taxpayer is going to pay the bill for the consequences of behavior, of course the taxpayer is going to want to control behavior. Mayor Bloomberg/big gulp ring a bell????
