16. you know if you're right, you have no respect for Obama whatsoever
because you're saying he used the term benefits to mean subsidies and he used the word "benefits" but secretly didn't mean Medicare, Social Security, Unemployment, etc.

everyone understands those programs as "benefits" of some sort.

to say that Obama was on our side because when he said "trim" "benefits" he didn't mean anything we consider benefits (and like) and he used the word benefits...well that's where it falls off the rail.

look, you and a number of other posters, when you defend Obama, you actually make him out to be pretty underhanded.

if what you're saying is true, Obama purposely used a misleading word --intending to do something else all along. the idea that you use this as a premise to defend him

--exactly how is that complimentary to him?

he needs better friends. :eyes:
