God damn it, Baconsalt!
he can a become conservative when he is an adult says psychogist Gordon Hodson.

Simple people want things to be simple and conservatives offer easy solutions.


Now I wonder why I'm not a conservative.

I don't really read your bullshit anymore so I'll just assume that it reads "If the child is not succeeding in intelligence test he's probably from Finland."

Assari, who are your favorite Liberals in American government? Tell us all about it. Any predictions on our mid-term elections? You think the Democrats deserve to keep The Senate? If so, why?

Assari, so glad we have you around. Tell me, why does it seem Democrats trying to keep their Senate seat are distancing themselves from the honorable Barack Obama? Could they be racist by giving an actual President a cold shoulder?

I would like to answer your question, but now I must say that I do not know anything about American political life.

Someone said that United States Democrats are the same as Rebublicans, so does it matter which party wins?

Those Democrats are not racist, they are disloyal.

But if your president has done a bad job then they have a reason to keep a distance for him.

The democrats who are distancing themselves from Obama when they voted virtually lock step with his positions -

What that says is they have little to no regard for the intelligence of their constituents. "Pay no attention to my voting record, I'm firing a gun in this ad and talking shit about Obama. You're stupid and will fall for it."

I have more respect for democrats who stick with their convictions regardless of the ramifications. But it's not about principle, it's about retaining power.

A fucking asteroid leveling D.C. would be addition by subtraction.

This is the same with either party. And why would they? Politicians get away with shocking things and yet get re-elected time after time, after time again. Were one to regard the intelligence of said constituents purely by their own voting patterns, there wouldn't be a lot of intelligence to regard.

That great Einsteinian quote comes to mind.

Agreed. Though we only have ourselves to blame allowing - nay, explicitly encouraging - our government to get this way.

You wanna talk about politicians who have no regard for the intelligence of their voters ?


Actually, they made the same ad for multiple state :

Gov. John Kasich: Repeal Obamacare, but not all of it


Ohio Gov. John Kasich wants to be very clear: He wants to repeal Obamacare. Just not the part he likes.

A political firestorm broke out Monday when the The Associated Press quoted Kasich as saying that Obamacare repeal was “not gonna happen.” That view is almost unheard of — at least in public — among most Republicans, let alone those who might run for the White House in 2016.

Kasich said AP got it wrong, and he called POLITICO Monday night to correct the record. He said he was talking specifically about repeal of the expansion of Medicaid — which Ohio has implemented — and not of the Affordable Care Act more broadly.

“From Day One, and up until today and into tomorrow, I do not support Obamacare,” the Republican governor said on Monday evening. “I never have, and I believe it should be repealed.”

Except for the Medicaid expansion part — which wouldn’t exist without the law. Kasich thinks there ought to be a way to save it.

“I have favored expanding Medicaid, but I don’t really see expanding Medicaid as really connected to Obamacare,” he said.

If Republicans take the Senate, Kasich said, “you better believe they’re gonna repeal Obamacare and I agree with that.” But, he added, “there’s got to be an accommodation” for Medicaid expansion.

Kasich is the latest high-profile Republican to struggle with the implications of repealing Obamacare as Americans have begun to benefit from its provisions. In a debate last week, Sen. Mitch McConnell advocated “pulling out Obamacare root and branch.” But Kentucky’s successful exchange, through which enrollees can receive federal subsidies to buy health insurance, “is a website,” McConnell said, that “can continue.”

Tens of thousands of newly eligible people have enrolled in Medicaid in Ohio, and the state expects 366,000 to sign up by next summer. Kasich infuriated conservatives when he bypassed the state’s Republican-controlled Legislature to expand Medicaid last year.

“The opposition to it was really either political or ideological,” Kasich told the AP of Medicaid expansion. “I don’t think that holds water against real flesh and blood, and real improvements in people’s lives.”

Kasich said he’s focused on winning reelection in a few weeks. He faced minimal political backlash in Ohio over Medicaid expansion, and went unchallenged in his primary. But in a White House race, he’d be competing for support among Republican voters who still hate the law — and possibly with contenders like Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, who still promises in his stump speeches to “repeal every word” of Obamacare.

“I have never viewed Medicaid expansion as part and parcel of Obamacare,” Kasich said. “It was one feature that was contained in Obamacare.”

Still, he acknowledged that his interpretation “may be an argument or a disagreement” among Republicans.

Republican governors have generally taken a more nuanced approach to the health law than their congressional counterparts. Kasich’s neighbor, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, is awaiting a decision from the feds about his proposed alternative Medicaid expansion. Other Republican governors thought to have White House prospects, including Chris Christie in New Jersey, Susana Martinez in New Mexico and Brian Sandoval in Nevada, also expanded Medicaid.
