Kosmo am cry.

Bigger bonuses coming - I'll be wiping my tears with $100 bills.

 

[Jackson50]

I don't either, I think the only real thing we get out of this politically is going to be a few amazing debate moments.

I hope Romney defends the Massachusetts reform policy, which is a cogent defense of the ACA, only to rely on the federalism defense.

 

[RustyNails]

Shouldn't that be Romney holding that sign? I don't understand why Obama is so happy his mandate is struck down

The federalism defense is literally the only option I see available. It has to be about "state's rights"

 

[eznark]

Joke post?

 

[Officerrob]

Rush starts his show with the words "Biggest tax increase in the history of the world". Gotta give Republicans credit, the fall in line and stay on message very well.

Whahaaaaaaa...?

 

[The Librarian]

Seems clear republicans had no alternative plan. House republicans had no plan to replace the bill with if it was repealed, Romney had no plan to replace it with if it was upheld. Whoops.

If he doesn't release a repeal plan by October...lol. THIS is the guy republicans bet their chips on?

Greg Sargent:

Romney: I will repeal Romneycare and replace it with my other plan, which will remain secret until after the election.

 

[RustyNails]

What? I don't understand.

Is it any more disingenuous than claiming tax cuts increase deficits?

What? I don't understand.

The mandate was upheld, as a tax. Have you been under a rock.

 

[Flying_Phoenix]

i decided to engage one person and post the responses

Whenever I see hardline conservatives compare the United States to Soviet Union I want to punch them in the fucking face. My teacher grew up in Soviet Union most of her life and the stories she told me were ridiculous. I really wish they could tell her that this country is turning into the USSR just to see her reaction.

 

[Frank the Great]

great day for vermont by the way

btw that facebook conversation went on further, including allegations that PPACA created an "armed force" that the IRS can use to detain people who don't have insurance. not worth re-posting. no one has responded since my latest point anyway, i think the white anger has subsided.

 

[eznark]

What? I don't understand.

A true student of history

 

[Jackson50]

Precisely. Listen to Romney defend health care reform in Massachusetts. Hm, sound familiar?

 

[kehs]

Twitter feed is amazing. lol

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

What? I don't understand.

Dewey defeats Truman

 

[RustyNails]

The mandate was upheld, as a tax. Have you been under a rock.

Exactly. The picture is playing Dewey-Truman picture where Dewey takes inaccurate chicago tribune headline of him winning over Truman. Romney would be taking inaccurate CNN headline of mandate being struck down and being all happy, not Obama.

 

[reilo]

Holy tits.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Exactly. The picture is playing Dewey-Truman picture where Dewey takes inaccurate chicago tribune headline of him winning over Truman. Romney would be taking inaccurate CNN headline of mandate being struck down and being all happy, not Obama.

Seriously...?

 

[Hobbestetrician]

The photo is actually of Truman holding up the newspaper, not Dewey.

 

[Officerrob]

So apparently some extreme conservatives are saying that are going to move to Canada, hmmm......what kind of healthcare do they have up in Canada?

 

[Kosmo]

Exactly. The picture is playing Dewey-Truman picture where Dewey takes inaccurate chicago tribune headline of him winning over Truman. Romney would be taking inaccurate CNN headline of mandate being struck down and being all happy, not Obama.

This is Dewey?

A true student of history

Seems Rusty might have an avatar quote.

Put down the shovel.

 

[PhoenixDark]

So will Obama admit this was a tax during his statement in a few minutes, or will he not comment on that part lol

 

[eznark]

So will Obama admit this was a tax during his statement in a few minutes, or will he not comment on that part lol

This court is awesome and infallible so stop questioning me.

Now Kill Citizens United!

 

[Kosmo]

So will Obama admit this was a tax during his statement in a few minutes, or will he not comment on that part lol

I see a "His agenda...by any means necessary..." ad with his Stephanopoulos interview and whatever comments he makes today.

 

[RustyNails]

I now feel what it's like to be a republican

 

[Byakuya769]

Rusty, time to relax and take a break for a bit. We'll still be here.

 

[thekad]

Is it any more disingenuous than claiming tax cuts increase deficits?

Haven't been paying attention, but is this a new Kosmo talking point?

 

[PhoenixDark]

haha Obama dinging Romney

 

[Kosmo]

Haven't been paying attention, but is this a new Kosmo talking point?

It's not a talking point, its a fact. It a tax - plain and simple.

 

[Officerrob]

There is the dig at Romney

 

[Frank the Great]

nice one bams

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

dat Romney ether

 

[Clevinger]

he probably never heard that lady's name before today

edit: What'd he say about Romney?

 

[PhoenixDark]

You could tell Obama was trying his hardest not to start grinning

 

[kehs]

he probably never heard that lady's name before today

edit: What'd he say about Romney?

He mentioned the current person running for office also supports that mandate.

 

[AlteredBeast]

Exactly. The picture is playing Dewey-Truman picture where Dewey takes inaccurate chicago tribune headline of him winning over Truman. Romney would be taking inaccurate CNN headline of mandate being struck down and being all happy, not Obama.

You are remembering it wrong.

EDIT- didn't refresh my screen

 

[Byakuya769]

K, Kosmo.

 

[Clevinger]

You somehow managed to beat out Rustynails' post for the dumbest post on the last page.

lol

In a race to the bottom, Kosmo always wins.

 

[Mike M]

Romney is half-assing this response even more than usual.

Quarter-assing it?

 

[reilo]

In a race to the bottom, Kosmos always wins.

That's only because Kosmo starts from the center of the earth.

CNN, Fox News Bungle Supreme Court Coverage (VIDEO)

In the mad dash to report the Supreme Court’s historic health care ruling before the competition, CNN and Fox News got a bit ahead of themselves.

I hope this haunts CNN for a long while. Embarrassing for a supposed news organization. Fox quit trying to be a professional news organization long ago so I doubt they give a shit.

 

[Cloudy]

Well Obama and the Dems better starts going all out to sell the ACA now. I can understand their hesitancy cos it'd have been egg on their faces if they featured it and lost in court
