“Brilliant analysis, Watson.”

“you are obviously too young to remember Eugene McCarthy”

“word... I got my neighbors back and I'll throw down at my door to let you know”

“why would conspirators decide to magically implode said building 7 when no planes flew into it?”

“I prefer the "Buy at mom and pop stores only" idea. Stocking up Wednesday so you don't buy Friday is worthless, they still get your money and don't care what day you shop.”

“Jalapeno,
Be very careful what you wish for. When the Republican regain the majority, it will be you that has the opposing view---which you state is not good for the country right now.
Let's not forget the Democrats were opposing to just to oppose from 2000 to 2006---they had no solutions either. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac being one glaring example when the Democrats opposed the efforts to reform both in 2005. I bet they sure would like to turn back the clock on that one.”

“"That's because opposing views are not good for the country right now."

Ex-squeeze me??

Baking powder??

So, in your opinion, opposing views are only good when this country has been attacked and thousands of innocent men women and children are killed..

“Have you read this post to realize how ignorant it actually is?”

“Sounds fine. Unitl you are diagnosed with heart, lung, or liver problems - then things get expensive. Not too long ago you could buy major medical insurance for your family and pay for routine doctor visits yourself. But no more. I've paid into medicare at the rate of 3% (me and my employer) of my salary ever since the program was initiated. As quickly as they could my employer eased me off their sponsered program and on to the "Public Option - Medicare"
Now my wife and I are on Medicare and my "routine medicines" for diabetes and heart cost well over $8,000 per year in addition to our monthly Medicare premiums of $2160. The Government has contracted with a private insureance company to manage my "case". I have no reason to think the government will do any better with control of your health care as well.
Just look at the post office. They handle all the "mail", charge $.44 / item, and still they are going broke. UPS, FEDEX, etc. move most of the packages and are going gangbusters. It will be the same when the government is in charge of health care.”

“Yeah, I know. New Yorker's accents make them sound so s t u p i d. And how about Boston? whew.. It's a good thing that you broke the mystery.”

“And Jeff Sessions is representative of the south?

If the problem is the schools, how is it that the problem "really is their accents !!"

And what bastion of intellectual greatness taught you to put spaces in front of exclamation marks?

Perhaps you ought to practice those values of tolerance and understanding that guys who take pictures of themselves in from of art typically preach?”

“This person makes a very reasonable post about the kind of attitude people who DO believe should have, and all you can do is bring up the question of whether there is a god? Granted, you were still a lot more polite and respectful than most agnostic/atheist posts I've seen here.”

“You believe in "Gay Marriage"

And I believe in "Fairy Tales"???”
