You do realize I was being sarcastic? I was just pointing it out to show the GOP SPENDS MONEY TO BUY VOTES TOO! My parents were forced into it slowly, but they still have 100% coverage between Medicare, and secondary.

So do I. I have Medicare parts A & B. I never used my VA because I had my own business and had BCBS for my employees and had a policy for myself which I kept when I sold my business. The VA insurance might have been OK but the hospital here, a Navy hospital, wasn't that much, it was too far to the regular VA hospital and just too much of a hassle and the care there wasn't reported to be that great. With my BSBS backing up my Medicare, I have no co-pays and no deductibles so I have no out-of-pocket except for meds which I get at discount with BCBS's med benefits. I did purchase separate BCBS vision and dental policies though because the BCBS major medical didn't pay a whole lots towards vision and dental.

So far on the Republican column of What We Have Done for our Country we have:

1) Interstate freeways
2) Environmental Protection Agency

Anything else?

Please don't just post more URL's of Republican spin. Please post lists of accomplishments. Surely there are more than two.

So I take it that you couldn't find any more Republican accomplishments either.

I've never really thought of it before. I assumed that just as Democrats have been working for social justice, Republicans have been working toward a more perfect union as well, but on different matters.

Republicans used to talk about being the party of "fiscal responsibility." I haven't heard that phrase in a while

As Eisenhower was the last Republican President to leave the nation in better financial shape than he found it, and some Republican administrations have left the nation significantly worse off financially, it's probably best not to keep bringing that up.

Now I know you'd like me to go away, but we've all chipped in for a lot of Republican salaries, insurance, pensions, vacations, etc. What did we get in return for our investment?

Greater income inequality started by Reagan, and a media network that lies!

I simply cannot condone nor fathom why any country should seek to enforce their borders.

As you are aware, I am facing a myriad of lawsuits. I want each and every one of my sheep to take out their checkbooks and write a check to the Democrat National Party today. If you don't have any funds in your checking account, purchase a United States postal money order or take your EBT card to a convenience store. Many convenience stores will charge your EBT as a grocery expense and give you money instead. You all know this. Go ahead and get enough to purchase a twelve-pack of beer or some wacky-weed for yourself.

Oh, someone just said the taxpayers would pay my legal fees. Great!! In any case, go ahead and send the money. We will have to hire a cadre of lawyers to defend against voter fraud charges in November. Gotta go now, got a lot of Hollywood big donors arriving.

I see you are a Hannity fan, too......

They sure do. ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, are all parrots for the Obama agenda. They report little other than Hollywood hype.

I told you it would be a waste of my time to engage with you. You've already proven that by discounting the Medicare Part D. Since you are apparently inept just as are most of the liberal bleating sheep on here, I will toss you one more bone for you to bleat about and discredit. This is my last one though. I'll not oblige you further.
