3. I think it is apt
You can have a drivers license - but driving a car is a privilege.
You can have health insurance - but having access to affordable medical treatment is still a privilege..

4. I started to do a thread on this and was too busy yelling at
my teevee to focus on typing. He also said it was not something guaranteed by the Constitution. Well, bubba Steele, neither is corporate personhood. You miserable slug.

Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness were inalienable rights enumerated in the Declaration of Independence, an equally important founding document. Right to life means more than a question re: reproductive choices. Right to life=right to health=right to quality of life.


Addendum: Chuck Todd is a numnuts.

6. I loved his idiotic reference to the constitution.
Savannah should have told him if we followed the constitution he'd still be a slave. I can't figure out if he is more stupid than Sarah Palin. R's have a lot of idiots.

9. Ever notice....
those republicans with excellent health care are the ones who are against the public having the same access. I wonder why? Can someone explain.

11. Mr. Steele and I have very different views of America
And I get sick thinking about life in his America.

Mr. Steele needs to spend some time reading his Bible, and try to really understand what it's all about. The wealthy giving what they can, healing the sick, feeding the poor and homeless. NOT the masses supporting the rich, as Mr. Steele wants it. I have grown to absolutely hate people who try to justify their greed.

14. President's supporters keep comparing health insurance with car insurance.
Hard to complain when it's "our" side's frame to begin with...
