Most Americans want health care reform. They voted for Democrats, and Democrats are now in control. I don't see a problem here.

Hey if the Nazis didn't kill so many people, I don't think anyone would think they were so bad. I don't remember the big fight in Germany ever being that too many people had healthcare...

He can't even talk.
Glad I saw the top of this post and realized you were talking about barney

I agree with you, though. I just don't see how anyone could vote for him or nancy. What could the justification possibly be? If I saw barney on the street I would throw some change at him because he looks like a homeless guy and sounds like, well, not exactly like a person I would want representing me..

Hey just like you wouldn't vote a black man president, you would never vote a gay jew into congress. So you not thinking he should be elected really means nothing. I hate having to spell this out to you people. Thats right you people.

When people feel that their representative is powerful, they will keep voting him in.
Barney knows how to play the game, that's for certain!

Are you claiming that not one republican voted for Jared Polis (D-CO), a gay Jewish congressman. Or Barney Frank (D-MA), a gay Jewish congressman? How do you know?

You stop lying. According to the beliefs of Pelosi, anything that alters to her delusional vision is un-American (except for illegal immigrants). Any sign of dissent from her decrees cannot be tolerated.

BTW, once again, the swastikas had a diagonal line through them. You do know what this indicates, or is the democratic party doing your thinking for you again?

Gee, with that kind of quality to your debating skill, I don't see why everyone doesn't just convert to your views and proclaim you leader. You are just so convincing.
