“How about we discuss a war for oil and empire launched and sustained by over 900+ *documented* lies about WMDs and debunked claims of connections between Saddam Hussein and 9/11, a war that is costing circa $9-11 billion in taxpayer dollars each month?

Poor authoritarians, untroubled by the ravages of empirical evidence and intellectual integrity.

“"Two wrongs never make a right." I had this wisdom instilled in me by my parents at around age five.

What's your excuse, citizen?

“Such as these need to be reminded at every turn that they are defending a status quo that places corporate profit margins over human life, a status quo that sees circa 45,000 *Americans* including *children* *die* each year due to lack of access to affordable healthcare, for no other "sin" than being declared "...not profitable enough!" by some corporate lackey so his CEO can have a third Bentley roadster in his garage in that third vacation home in The Hamptons.

God pity them all.

“Someone needs to erect a counter in the Senate that will track the number of Americans who die each day from lack of access to affordable healthcare, with a separate count for *children* and accompanying *photographs* as well, so despicable sociopaths like McConnell and his fellow travelers amongst the happy lapdogs of K Street in the Senate can see the reality of the human cost of their nihilistic subservience to the corporate aristocracy.

“Moderators, the following response does *not* violate Fair Use:

"RoninCharlotte,"

I was addressing "deBeer." Or is "deBeer" your *sock puppet?*

And I challenge you to prove that Jesus is a myth, that no man named Jesus walked the earth so long ago and preached compassion and peace, tolerance and love trump hypocrisy, avarice, and brutality in a time of vicious authoritarian tyranny, in a time where human life was cheap and a few silver coins was the price.

The "Greedy Old Perverts" have been shoving down the throats of We The People for over 30 years now that they and they alone are "the party of conservative Christian family values," and you damn...wel l...know.. .it, citizen.

You may not be an actual member of that despicable and corrupt party of C Street, K Street, Jack Abramhoff, ad endless nauseum, but IMHO you are demonstrably grossly lacking in basic human compassion and decency in your willingness to sacrifice so many for a few dollars more in your pocket.

I am not laughing at your willingness to take away the livelihoods of ten human beings and their families just to protect your profit margins. But I do indeed pity you, placing The Almighty Dollar above the lives you will potentially harm or even destroy should you follow through on your threat.

God pity you indeed.

“Oh, I got your point, citizen. Ten people's livelihoods and the potential harm the loss of same will cause them and their families are irrelevant as long as your profit margins are protected.

“Of course! One cannot allow human lives to cut into the corporate profit margin, now can one?

I mean, what are the lives of circa 40,000 Americans including *children* who die each year due to lack of access to affordable healthcare when weighed against the sacredness of The Almighty Dollar?

“Let me guess. You still think the GOP is "the party of conservative Christian famiy values:"

Hypocrisy like cynical servitude to the moneyed corporations is neither a "family value" nor a Christian virtue, citizen. I take it that you are quite happy with the present status quo of healthcare in America, in which corporate profit margins trump the lives of circa 45,000 Americans including *children* who die annually due to lack of access to affordable healthcare, for no other "sin" than being declared "...not profitable enough!' so an insurance company CEO can have a third BMW G-series roadster in the garage of their third vacation home in The Hamptons.

God pity you.

“What a wonderful, transparent appeal to cynicism!

So do tell, citizen, is this in fact the new GOP strategy, appealing to cynicism and promoting despair? Anything to keep people from exercising their rights under the law to demand and keep demanding that our elected representatives actually represent our interests, K Street lobbyists and their corporate masters be damned!

We The People have the power - when we choose to exercise it.

“Just a "little?" The status quo is legalized corporate predation trumping human life, to the tune of circa 40,000+ *Americans* including *children* *dying* each year due to lack of access to affordable healthcare in America, for no other "sin" than being declared by some corporate hack "...not profitable enough!" just so that hack's CEO can have a third BMW G-series roadster in their third vacation home in The Hamptons.

I side with one of the Founders on this subject:

"I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations which even now dare challenge our government to a trail of strength, and bid defiance to the laws of their country!"

- Thomas Jefferson, letter to George Logan, 1816

Truer, more prophetic words were never written by one of our nation's founders.
