A Quick History Lesson
« on: January 21, 2014, 03:24:46 PM »
U.S. Coast Guard veteran, 1964-1968

Will Rogers never met Barack Obama. He would not like Obama.

I hate liberals. Liberalism is a disease that causes severe brain damage after it tries to suck knowledge and history out of yours.

Sums it up nicely.
Shove this down the pie hole of every domestic enemy you come across.

Are those numbers (percentages) true?

I merely see things and post them. They sound correct to me, though.

That can be dangerous.

In this case the data looks to be essentially correct, the Dem's did not have a single Congressional vote in either chamber for the 14th & 15th, and only 16 voted for the 13th, there were a lot of NV's (not voting) on the 15th and I think it is the only one of the three where any Rep's voted against it (3).

As we all know too well the ObamaCare BS passed in the dead of night 220-215 on a party line vote in the House and in a pair of 60-39 (Bunning did not vote) votes in the Senate to end debate and pass the hideous monstrosity.  Recall the Cornhusker kickback (Nelson)?  The Green Mountain payoff (Lieberman)?

May they all burn in Hell for that evil!!!

Don't tell me you've already forgotten the Louisiana Purchase (Landrieu).

And yes, I think there's a special place in Hell for ALL of them.

I left that gem for you, on purpose!   ;)
