Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

See, that's what you've been told by your elite media and you keep falling for it.  Like I stated before, you're being spoon fed and swallowing every bit of it.

No, that's what was demonstrated and proven, via empirical evidence that the conservative faction wants to pretend doesn't even exist.

When a sector of people refuse to consider what science and history have proven to be factual, what else are reasonable individuals left to believe but that the conservative sector consists of nothing more than a flock of parrots?

Let me get this straight.

....we're going to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose
chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that
hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a
president that also hasn't read it and who smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his
taxes, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and
financed by a country that's nearly broke. What could possibly go
wrong?

All of the put downs and name calling still doesn't distract from the fact that some legit questions have been raised by the very people you're dissing and no answers have been given by those you're praising.  They, like you, only put down the people asking the questions and attempt to discredit the person instead of answering the question which in itself is cause for concern.  Why can't they answer the questions?  What are they trying to hide.  Why are so many things being done behind closed doors?  How exactly is this government health care going to be paid for.  Where are the extra doctors going to come from to take care of all the extra people who will be covered?  Do you have any of those answers?  Has MSNBC, CNN, or any of the other "news" networks given you the answers or even raised the question?  Of course not you're only getting rosy everything will work news brought to by brown nosers.  They don't want to make waves for fear that they will find themselves being dissed like Fox.

Well the ignorance in your questions shows that you wouldn't understand an answer, if given one.  For instance; "How exactly is this government health care going to be paid for."  Your legislators, in the pockets of the insurance companies, have ensured there isn't any additional "gov't ran health care.  You probably would do away with Medicare, and even Social Security (those evil gov't run programs), and it is your right to have that opinion.  But, what part of the health care legislation is "gov't run health care"?  When you answer that, you might deserve answers to any of your other questions, or are you just a fucking ignorant teabagger, soccer mom, that only knows what beck (or redneck hubby) told you?

Is this a parrot, or plagiarist?  You make the call.  :wink:

The legislators and insurance are going to pay for health care?  What??????  Sounds to me like you have no clue and are trying to dodge the question.

But it's the truth.   :razz:

It's intellectual dishonesty.  It's also part and parcel of what's continually pointed out about you "conservatives" all day long around here.  If all you can contribute is a copy and paste of the words of others, it casts doubt on your ability to rub a couple of brain cells together and think anything through on your own.  Kinda' suggests you're being led around by the nose.

Classic troll dullard plagiarism -- trying to demonstrate acerbic wit, with, like I said before, defective intellect and deficient education. Hopes no one ever verifies his posts, so that he can be thought of as one who has the ability to play with the big boys. Finds his followers among those who love Beck, Rush, and O'Reilly. Will find sympathy and dishonest justification among those who will spin in an inane way, with comments like, "But it's the truth."

If those who provide silly support for these stunted thinkers stop giving aid and comfort like slobbering lackeys, they will go back to being what they were before: nothing people.
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

Yes.


Intellectual?

Considering the source, I seriously doubt it.
