Aha – That’s Why They Were So Desperate to Get Us Into Syria

[RC]

58. Can't refute anything in my post so you resort to attacking the messenger?

I voted enthusiastically for Obama and his Hope and Change the first time. I'm still waiting for it.
No one with any kind of grip on reality would have voted for Romney. Not only is the GOP the enemy, as you state, but so are the DLC, DINO's and other assorted people that claim to have that (D) by their name, but are in reality, also Right of Center. Those same DLC and DINO's enable the GOP by not properly standing up to them in the race to the bottom.

The ACA was birth in the Right wing think-tank, The Heritage Foundation^*, written in large part by the health insurance companies themselves. It was fine tuned in Massachusetts by George Romney. Then brought to us by the Obama administration. Those that tried to get attention for Single Payer, at the hearings, were arrested and jailed. Obama would not or could not even use his bully pulpit for the Public Option. He caved on that option.

I am for equality for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, skin color, or nationality, including the Right to marriage and all the legal ramifications therein.

We got kicked out of Iraq. Obama then expanded the war in Afghanistan and tried to start WWIII by wanting to bomb Syria, before Putin pulled our bacon from the fire by proposing a diplomatic solution. Those are the facts.

No one here is saying Obama is a repug. What we are saying is Obama is no Liberal. He is a Right of Center corporatist. Things make sense by looking at Obama in that light. How else can Reagan be someone Obama looks up to for inspiration?

he Heritage Foundation is desperate for Congress to strangle Obamacare in the crib. Prevent the program’s major provisions from taking effect on Oct.1, the conservative Washington research foundation advises, by threatening to shut down the government. Heritage President Jim DeMint just launched a nine-city “Defund Obamacare” tour, sponsored by Heritage’s advocacy arm, Heritage Action. It’s all very scholarly.

Obamacare must be stopped, according to Heritage, because it’s expensive, imposes new taxes, and tramples on individual liberty.

But the punchline is that Obamacare is largely Heritage’s own invention.

It may not be news that a conservative Washington think tank is going to great lengths to defeat a Democratic policy proposal. But this may be the first instance where the policy being opposed was incubated at the very same think tank. Look out, donors: the policies you pay Heritage to develop today may be policies you pay Heritage to defeat tomorrow. It’s like Victor Frankenstein stumbling over the frozen tundra to defeat the creation he was so proud of but now despises.
