You mean something like the little 13 yr old girl that asked and read the second question
at Obama's town hall meeting. Something like- Why are all those people outside
holding those mean signs about your HC Program?

Later you find out her mother was a contributor/ supporter of Obama and
her little girl had attended the Easter egg hunt at the White House.

I stay out of this forum for the most part but its always good for a little entertainment. That being said, does anyone actually think that our health care system does not need reform?

Everything is better on the rocks.

Ya for sure Rob some reform, but, imho, not at the expense
of a government take over which will allow government control
over 1/6th of our economy.

A similar plan in England makes their system the 3rd largest employer
in the world.

Oh Spince. The point he was making is that even though MA is the most liberal state in the country, most people here are not backing the President on the HC reform bill. Pretty simple to understand.

You made it about one person who held up an offensive sign and a few others who were shouting "talking points". It's ironic that you're now using the same tactic that you usually blame others of using. You're starting to get off your game a little. You need to get out and catch a fish before you go crazy and start showing up at town hall meetings in the east bay with signs of your own showing pictures of Obama and Biden dressed ad Bo and Luke Duke.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Spence doesn't fish, he's a troll and I'm beginning to suspect that he and Barney Frank are the same person, has anyone ever seen the two of them in the same room together?...I bet not...unbridled arrogance like that is rare....that pic in his avatar isn't really Spence... Spence is actually Barney Frank...

Fishbones - right
Spence - wrong

None of this petty bickering when you girls eventually fish with me.

Don't worry. I promise to play nice with Spence while you're on vacation, Jimmy. In fact I'm planning on taking him fishing down Monomoy next week. I even bought him a new wetsuit so he can venture further out in the surf.
