38. It was worse, single payer advocates were detained not just "kicked under the table"
I can't believe more people did not become enraged for that, in fact in almost any other industrialized country in the world... such an action (the jailing of people advocating for popular public interests) would have triggered civil unrest, strikes, and general rioting at a massive scale. But not here, no siree bob... in the land of "the free" and home of "brave" we sure showed the rest of the world: we went back to watching teevee, and it only took a couple of milquetoast speeches with not a single specific item in them to "calm us." Sad...

And this is not just Obama's folly, it is by large the fault of the blue dogs and the rest of milquetoast Dems which continue enabling these disgusting agendas.


Here is a concept for liberals in this country: maybe we should stop enabling moderate conservative charlatans while hoping they enable a liberal agenda.

It would be the same as if chickens kept electing a fox as hen house manager, while they wonder why egg production is down and why half of the chickens went missing. Except, that chickens would not be as brain dead as liberals in this country to actually do that.
