In reply to the discussion: I don't enjoy GD anymore [View all]bravenak
(34,648 posts)232. Oppressed minority female? Show me where I said I'm oppressed. I was making fun of you.
You have a most nasty way of trying to deliver your point. It smacks of arrogance and self delusion.
This thread is not about those who blindly blindly do anything. It's a discussion board. I don't care about criticism, but the vitriol is a bit much. Oh the agony! Obama ain't doing what I want right away when I want it! Wahhhh! So stupid to be madder at the president than we are at the repubs.
I'm a left libertarian bordering on anarchist so I can't just leave my party. I'm here to stay. And I know which party welcomes my vote and which one wants to stop me from voting.
I never called you a peace purist. You're just juvenile and downright mean. And I'm laughing at you.
You began the attacks sir. Not me. You responded to my post on this thread by getting up on your high horse and you're falling off. You talk smack and then pretend that somebody did your spoiled self wrong.
You do need this female to set you straight. You're not as smart as you think you are. You did say you were a republican at one time,right? Now your're an independent. Good move.
1. I think he said the same thing about Libya. No boots on the ground, in and out with assistance from our allies. We are not still in Libya, so I believe him. He may be wrong but I doubt it.
2. I can give Obama credit for actually pulling them out. Bush had years to pull us out, he did the paperwork, Obama did the work.
3. I grant you that one. But it still saved my cousins life by allowing him to get Medicare so he could get his double organ transplant. So I'm grateful. The donut hole being closed allows him to purchase his anti rejection drugs. It isn't perfect but he would be dead without it.
4. Absolutely your opinion is your own and you are entitled to it.
5. What the fuck are you talking about daddy issues? I've never mentioned my dad on here. He died almost 20 years ago of a drug overdose. I barely knew him.
6. Okay you are not white. Good for you. Now tell me for the record how exactly has Obamacare hurt you more. Obama has not failed. Bush failed. Both of them. Ronald Reagan is the one that screwed this country up with his war on drugs and the continuing of the southern strategy.
And endless other things.
No you cannot make a better sandwich than me. I am the ultimate sandwich designer. It is known.
While I enjoy my youthful arrogance you can enjoy the bitterness that is your destiny.
All you do is blame blame blame. That's why I laugh at you. My generation has had it hard and we are tougher than you. We are used to disappointment. Our parents generation was full of crackheads and gangbangers and bullshit artists.But we are optimistic about the future. We know there won't be Social Security for us and if there is it will be cut. Yet we still work our asses of to pay for those ahead of us even if it means a sacrifice for us later.
Why aren't you receiving proper health care ? Is it a long term illness or Is it something treatable? It was hard getting my cousin on medicare and Medicaid but in the end we got it done. You may qualify depending on your condition and if it has made you disabled. There is a way to find out, I'll help you if you want even though your mean as hell. I can handle your cranky snarkness. It makes me laugh.
Don't forget to tell me how Obamacare hurt you.
