GOP's Brown wins Mass. Senate seat in epic upset

No one's making money, mostly because of the Liberal agenda. The same agenda that wants to force people to buy insurance, or be fined if they don't, all the while taxing healthcare plans of the working class, who aren't union members.

Whose doing the bleeding?

Incorrect and misleading as usual. The tax revenue generated would largely be the burden of corporate and upper echelon. But the fear mongering you are regurgitating was certainly effective in swaying voters.

The taxing of healthcare plans was refused by the Dems after its proposal. And people are not making money because of the last eight-years of Republican economics. Its called the trickle-down effect and the pores have clogged!

Wholesale panic set in yet, Dems?

Nah. More like the sad realization that this country is not interested in fixing its problems even after seeing the consequences of putting conservatives in charge over the last 6 or 8 (depending on how you do the math) years.
 
The fact that Mass. voters denied Kennedy his last wish (to pass healthcare reform) by voting in a candidate that ran on opposition to it leads me to believe that maybe Kennedy really didn't represent his constituents.
Not only is it a slap in the face to the Dems and their totally crappy healthcare bill, but it's a kick in the balls to :rwbdonkeyTeddy.
It's funny to see the pundits all saying "Even though polls show that people like Obama as a person, they're voting against his policies" LOL. Sounds more to me that the people are scared of being labeled as racists, so they say they like him as a person but hate what he's doing to America.
It's also funny to hear Dems say that Obama hasn't been able to do anything because he's been opposed at every turn. In reality, the Reps. didn't have enough votes in Congress to stop them from doing whatever they wanted. It's the moderate Dems who actually put the breaks on healthcare. America gave the Libs free reign last year and they royally screwed it up.

Annnnnnnd, who do you really think is going to end up paying for that?

The Dems have been running the show since 2007. Interesting how things started going to **** after they took the reins, eh?

"If people don't vote the way I think they should, it's because they're stupid."

Now there's the Kennedy spirit that was so absent yesterday.
 
It is a good day for insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies, congrats and may they bleed the working class dry!

It's actually a good day for all those mass independents, democrats, and republicans who feel this particular piece of legislation with it's bribes and backdoor sweetheart deals for senators and unions is bad for the country and bad for the people of this country. My hat is off to all my yankee bretheren in mass. They came thru for us all in a very big way. :mrgreen:

If you say so.

If you really believe this, then you are an unfortunate soul.
 
If you say so.

By all means do not listen. Continue to label and denigrate those who disagree with this democratic party's agenda as; shills for the insurance companies, racists, nazis, simpletons, and yokels. Please, feel free to blame democratic candidates, pollsters, rush limbaugh, and hannity for people who are confused about just what this healthcare legislation will actually do to them. By all means keep providing lawyers, constitutional protections, and trials for terrorists. Whenever possible please continue to place PC considerations over the lives of american citizens. But, whatever else you do, DO NOT LISTEN to anyone who disagrees with your vision of a europeanized america, just keep dreamin' on.......

No attempt at rebuttal, I see.

Don't need one. Conservatives want no change. They will allow the cost of healthcare to spiral out of control in order to maintain their insurance and pharma task masters.

You mean as opposed to bringing in real competition by allowing insurance companies to compete across state lines and bringing sanity to insurance rates with tort reform? You mean change like that? :confused:
 
Would you seriously consider any rebuttal, or simply come back with scores of Conservative talking-points sound bytes.

So then you are just here to preemptively troll. Troll them before they troll you.

I just don't understand the asinine things idiots do on this site every day.

Will never happen. What will happen is that state lines will be opened and the big three will till dominate, but from states that allow high cost with minimum coverage. If you do not think this is so, wait for it. And when it does you can blame Democrats for what you created, just as you do with the economy.

No, I am here to counter your trolling

It's been a year. It's a democratic economy. I'm still waiting for the 2.5 to 3 mil jobs created and 2 to 3% GNP growth and unemployment topping out at 8% as promised by the stimulus package.....still waiting......still waiting.........;)

I thought they are going to tax the "Cadillac Plans" 40%. The Auto Unions got involved when they found out the "Cadillac Plans" was them, so they negotiated all unions out, at least for now.

You're falling for this upper echelon thing, when in fact, you are probably at least partly upper echelon. The $250,000 a year group will get smaller and smaller when they realize it's not worth it to make that much money.

My daughter recently worked some overtime for the holidays. She said it all got taxed away. She's not going to work the OT too much any more. Not worth it.
 
Just like I thought. Trolling is all you got.

Good day to you, troll.

Look, since you are clearly confused, I will spell it out. I feel that even though the healthcare bill is greatly flawed, it is better than what Republicans will bring, which is nothing. I garantee you they will do nothing but let everything remain as it has been.

If they were to actually make strides to end practices such as pre-existing condition rejection for coverage, then I would welcome it. But they will not. I know it and you know it.
 
you just proved my point.

Well, there is a normal protocol we are required to follow. Would you like for me to assume the position of the american liberal/leftist/marxist/socialist position? I'd be glad to but I much more prefer the part of the average angry american populist joe. It's more fun out here plus there's more of us these days. :mrgreen:

So you think a year is all that is required to fix a recession of this magnitude?
