I do not purchase my health coverage through an employer.

I do not want a government plan.

Who will pay the premiums for the people on the government plan who can't afford them?

Did Obama use fear to get what he wanted? I do think that was the question you are skirting here.

If his performance on November 5, 2009 is an example of the respect and manners of BO I think I'll stick with Dubya.

Do you realize just how stupid you sound offering up such tripe?

Such triviality just sent your credibility right down the tubes.
Do you realize how naive you sound not recognizing a joke when you see one?

Looking at the voting I see that the GOP would Lose again, guess the left and middle does not have the remorse the right keeps trying to claim they do.
LOL,

Haha - wow. Rigging a chat forum poll. Glad they caught it.

Whoever this "Barrack" guy is in the poll, he should run for president someday. Seems like he'd be pretty popular.
