"We Will Call You Out"

"If you misrepresent what is in this plan, we will call you out." So sayeth The One. I guess he is going to be talking to himself a lot. Or rather calling himself out a lot. Because every single speec he has made about this plan has directly misrepresented not just viewpoints about the plan, but basic facts about it.

.... and now he brings up the ghost of Teddy Kennedy. You knew this was coming. Cue the violins. Please. Give. Us. A Break.

"What drove him was something more." Maybe he ought not use that verb.

I am getting pretty tired of Obama's accusations of "lies!" He keeps making assertions, pretending they are arguments, and becoming angrier that we still don't buy it.

Obama just wants everyone to work together period, but most repub's don't want to. That is why many of them came with those stupid papers
and one of them interuppted him during the speech. I consider myself a student of all three parties, although I could never be on the side of the republican sith.

Those "stupid papers" you kool-aid-drinkers keep referring to, include the signatures of over 1.3 million people who DO NOT like what YOUR President is trying to do to this Country! BTW, "student of all three parties", what are you doing here anyway? The poison you spread won't work with anyone with an IQ above 70. Go back to KOS or whatever irrelevant useless "blog" country you came from.

Quin, the game is now officially on. We have been called out and he has had his final chance to make his case. It is now incumbent on the citizens of America to make their case and make their voices heard. It is time for planning and action.
What will 9-12 look like when millions of citizens are either in Washington or in their home towns making the clear case they want much less government and much more personal freedom?
What will these same citizens do to elect politicians who will do the same, locally, state wide and nationally?
We know who the Big government politicians are (that is being kind). It is time to act.

Yup: democrats good--republicans bad--very convincing. Yet oddly--that is often the argument one hears on the street. Even a caveman can do better. Lets have more neadenthals in congress--oops sorry we have them already--maybe homo erectus ?

tinir: "... those stupid papers"

You forgot to disguise your disdain for representative democracy.

Mr. Obama, Each time you speak, you make a bigger ass of yourself. I still laugh when I think about your statement that Insurance Company's will cover who and what you tell them to. Try to remember this. You are only the president. You are not yet the dictator. Is not that ole wife of yours a lawyer? Maybe you should consult with her before making speechs about how everything you say will be law. Maybe you were just wanting to put some humor in that pathetic speech. You said that all this insurance coverage could take place with all the money that is now wasted. No money would add to the national debt. In government land, money grows on tree's. Maybe you could give a speech on how to grow those tree's.

“I consider myself a student of all three parties”??? All right, I know I’m gonna regret this, but I’ll bite – what, pray tell, is the third party of which you speak? Socialist? Communist? Tea? Toga? Keg? Depending on the answer, I might be inclined to sign up.

"... If you misrepresent what is in this plan, we will call you out." So sayeth The One...."

In other words - if you recite the leprous facts
of 'this plan' you gonna wish you were in
Castrozuela.
