I'm sure that's the case, and in some cases, it might be sufficient. Given that this is a bill that will overhaul at large chunk of the economy and the healthcare system for Americans, I'm not satisfied with that.
Agreed. Again, with the significance of this one and the division in the country, I think it's irresponsible to not know it very well and misguided to think it's not crucial that you know it. This applies to those on the left and right
I completely agree. As I said, IMO I think they need to know the proposed legislation particularly on something of this magnitude. In their defense, it would be very hard to know all of the legislation that get passed to them. There is no reason for them not to be able to make it more manageable.
We often find ourselves arriving at the same conclusion, albeit through different paths.
There is a distinction between freedom of speech and terroristic speech which I think you are missing. As amused as you seem to be by that sign, you should respect that when threats like this are put on signs they do embolden people of similar sentiments, not just to also become more public in their threats, but to actually carry out such threats.
But you somehow find a justification when it was done to Bush..hypocrite and zero credibility..
LOL. I may have intensely disliked the man, but like most people, I did not entertain the notion of taking him out...
Like most people. So you do acknowledge there were plenty of idiots on the left (much like the man carrying the Obama sign) that did want to take him out.
Post some facts please. And most Americans are against the proposed UHC plan as it stands. Why do you think the President's ratings are dropping so fast lately?

Well, no, that's not what the poster was saying.
As for Americans protesting, I recall many signs calling to impeach President Bush, but none to kill him. Overseas, it was a different story. I don't expect someone in India or Pakistan to have the same degree of respect for American Presidents that Americans should have.
And there may have been some American extremists, probably on the left, who might have entertained the notion of killing President Bush, but can you find any stories or photos about Americans waving "Death to Bush" signs?
This is sick and disgusting. I hope the Secret Services sees this.
I don't think this is worth hoping for the President to die.
Sad thing is that some people think it is ok to think this. I bet some right winger people on this forum will jump up and agree that it is ok to assassinate Obama. Sad sad.
I cannot wait to see the right defending this sick minded man.
Sad thing is that some left winger will blanket the entire right side of the political spectrum with completely unhinged suppositions that are not remotely based on fact.
