    So can we agree that this sums everything up?

    4.9+ million have ALREADY lost their private insurance plans as a direct result of the ACA, so I'm really not sure how you think you can get away with claiming otherwise. Perhaps you missed the President's announcement yesterday and the entire reason it happened? O_o

    President Obama to deliver statement on the Affordable Care Act at 11:35am ET

    Probably ever since I worked hard to become a member of it a few decades ago? My guess is that you'd prefer to see all of us join you at the bottom. That fantasy probably works better than Viagra for you. Yep.

    So can we agree that this sums everything up?

    You're absolutely correct. 106k people now have private insurance. Out of 40 million. awesome. Meanwhile, over 4.9 million lost their insurance since October 1st as a direct result of the ACA. More awesome? Is math a new concept for you? Stay in school, kids...

    President Obama to deliver statement on the Affordable Care Act at 11:35am ET

    If you actually value the existence of a middle class, then yes, "serious harm" is absolutely accurate.

    You can't be serious... or real. Remember kids, the vast majority of people you pass on the street every day are f'n stupid.

    The truth behind Bloomburgs MAIG

    I'm starting a new group... CAMAR. Citizens Against Murder and Rape Seriously, something needs to be done to stop these crimes, so sign up and send me money NOW! In actuality, CAMAR will exist to put a stop to arm wrestling and consensual sex; but, that's not really important... It's for the...

    Capital on Lockdown

    Actually, you just completely missed the point... AGAIN! Amazing. Here's a hint: it had nothing to do with guns or gun laws -- neither of which are the problem. Hint #2: the key words in my post were "psychotropic drugs," not the words "mass shootings." Good luck! looks like you may need...

    Capital on Lockdown

    19 of the last 20 "mass shootings" were done by people who were on, or had recently stopped taking, doctor-prescribed psychotropic drugs... so, seriously, what's there to explain? If she wasn't a total nutcase before she started taking the meds, then I'm sure those "wonderful" pills -- each...

    You're right... maybe it was orchestrated by the same mysterious group that planned and planted all the explosives in the buildings on 9/11! I think you're really onto something... O_o

    Kenyan Mall Victims Tortured, Maimed, and Mutilated.

    If you believe that Al-Shabab's actions are done for anything other than Islamic jihad, then you're f'n ignorant. You obviously don't know jack or shit about Al-Shabab. So yeah, derp, indeed...

    Kenyan Mall Victims Tortured, Maimed, and Mutilated.

    The IRA's fight with Britain had very little to do with religion, so comparing their motivations to Islamic jihadists is just plain ignorant. That's like saying that gang warfare in Chicago is based on religious differences... f'n derp.

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    And you're failing to grasp the concept of cause-and-effect. IF the ACA causes my employer to drop coverage, and the direct effect is a 5% loss of my income, then you're g'damn right I'm going to blame Obama and the rest of the ACA supporters for that loss! It may as well be a 5% tax on my...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    We'll revisit this topic if/when my employer drops coverage as a result of ACA, and I subsequently lose 5% of my household income. "I won't increase taxes on those making less than $250k..." my ass. I just love how the progressive pricks in DC, and their supporters, keep moving the goalposts...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    When I looked at the recently released Kaiser Family Foundation study of 18 markets, anything over 400% of FPL showed "no cap"... is that true, or did I read it wrong? I thought you had previously stated that the max is 9.5% for anything 400% or higher...? (PDF found here, see the chart in...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    I sincerely hope you're not trying to say that US tax rates are equal to, or greater than, Canadian tax rates...? Canadians pay an arm and a leg for their socialized healthcare, and most of that is reflected in their exceedingly high tax rates... and God help you if you're middle class and...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    Actually, coverage for children IS required until they're 26 years of age. However, the section of the ACA that spells out that requirement is the very same section wherein mandatory spousal coverage was intentionally omitted. It wasn't an "oversight" -- they very much want spouses to be...

    In response to "not enough good guys with guns"

    No, I'd simply talk about the victims' great service while they were alive, give my sincere condolences to the families, and express my sadness for all the wickedness in the world. IOW, I'd pay my respects. Instead, he turned it into a long-winded political rant against guns, and I think...

    In response to "not enough good guys with guns"

    Or, you know, they could simply enforce the countless laws that already exist AND dramatically increase the punishments for those who commit violent crimes. (ie. violent crimes result in no eligibility for parole, etc) Personally, I'd also be ok with requiring background checks for all private...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    Actually, and sactoking can correct me if I'm wrong, I believe ACA doesn't require spousal coverage at all. Therefore, it's possible that your employer-provided plan can deny spousal coverage completely even if your spouse is unemployed or doesn't have an employer option of their own -- thus...

    People complainign their insurance is going up with the ACA

    Because those increases were smaller, and because employers weren't being legislatively encouraged to cut hours, jobs, and/or coverage. The middle class WILL rise up and destroy this law if/when our rates double or triple. Bet?

    My problem is that he did it AT the memorial service. I wouldn't have made the statement if he'd simply held a separate press conference to politicize the issue. My next-door neighbor was almost killed last Monday -- the shooter walked past him after shooting a woman in the cubicle next to...

    NAVSEA Shooter - DC

    You do realize that "mass shootings" are extremely rare, right? So once you burn our Bill of Rights, all of the guns in existence will just magically disappear? Or, are you suggesting that the government criminalize ownership and then go door-to-door collecting the guns and/or arresting...
