I feel the same way, I am not one to sit humbly on the sidelines and watch things get ruined without speaking out. I will admit to being more energetic than maybe I should sometimes but I do take the destruction of our freedoms and the arrogance of some politicians personally. Why? Because it IS personal. Long after I am gone my family will continue and the foundations we set now will hurt them more than me. I would love to help preserve some of the freedoms that made my life possible for my children, and their children.
And most of that distortion and lies is from Obama and as the leader of the discussion, everyone else is simply following his lead.
If he would admit to things like the cost of his program maybe some other people would not go to the other extreme to counter his lie........maybe?
Forget all the other questions Bender, forget the past arguements.....do you really believe this bill will be "deficit neutral" as Obama has promised no less than 40 times? Answer that one question for me without a lot of disclaimers and excuses....please.

We've been deceived for years and years. Where have you been?
Screaming "You lie" in the midst of Obama's address is a great and civil way to get your point across!
I love how you twist every thought and every word to your own device. This thread is not about you, TJ. If it were, Bender would have used your name and then you'd have a leg to stand on.
You're hobbling at best.

Right here noticing it all, where have you been?
My point was responding about Bender's complaint about folks not being totally honest in reply to Obamacare. Obama started the lies so everyone is following suit.
And neither is the lie itself. Do you think saying a lie softly makes it better?
I agree the guy was an idiot, but in my opinion Obama was just as disrespectful to his office and that chamber by standing there telling lie after lie on purpose.
A leg to stand on?
You need to ease up on the drining RO, your not making any sense, Bender spoke on his perspective, I spoke on mine, I am sure you speak from yours, what is your problem?
Again, my post was about Bender's claim everyone else is telling lies but if we look at the start, it is Obama who is setting the stage with his own lies first and everyone else is just following suit.
That is why I kept it simple ans asked about Obama's repeated promise to keep this Obamacare "deficit neutral". Nobody believes that claim, everyone interviewed even on the shows on ABC says this is impossible.

Well said, Merc.
Harassment would be the perfect word for that situation, absolutely.
And yes, you can't stick your head in the sand about every little thing. You'd wind up losing a lot of friends that way for sure.
My friends are who they are and believe what they believe. I see no benefit in shoving my own personal political beliefs, religious views, moral codes or sports team affiliations down their throats. That's just ghey.

Concentrated power is not rendered harmless by the good intentions of those who create it.
Milton Friedman
What I admired about Friedman, and Buckley was another example, is he never tried to demonize the opposition by questioning their motives. What he pointed out so well is that the road to **** is paved with good intentions.
