    The difference between what I said and what you said is apparently lost on you. I said leftists do not support Obamacare because Obamacare is against leftist/liberal economics. It's no different than saying Christians believe Jesus is the Messiah and son of god. It would be absurd and false for someone to call themselves a Christian and yet reject a central tenet of Christianity, same with leftist/liberal economics.

    What YOU said is that every liberal/leftist in America supports Obamacare, which is like saying every Christian votes Republican. Rather than making a statement about leftist philosophy, you're acting like you know personally the opinions of every leftist.

    So again: given that I just pointed you yo two leftists opposed to Obamacare, and I myself am a leftist opposed to Obamacare, how do you know the thoughts of every leftist?

    Perhaps I've forgotten...tell me again how you...and leftists... support the free market, capitalistic version of health care over ​some form of government control over national health care.

    Leftists don't support "free market," capitalistic healthcare. That's kinda the whole reason we are opposed to Obamacare, because it is corporatist (capitalist).

    Then we're back to your's...and leftist's... proxy support of Obamacare because it's at least a step in the "right" direction to socialist health care.

    Intellectual dishonesty bores me, kid...later.

    It's not a "step" anywhere NEAR socialist healthcare. Can you read?

    Then you support the pre-Obamacare system?

    Of course not. I support single-payer, which is actual leftist policy.

    That he keep misinterpreting your position even though you have clearly stated it many time is irritating. He is either pretending to not get it or is in desperate need of reading comprehension courses.

    Once they start shifting there addiction from drugs to Jesus they become a lot less fun. If it helps them get sober, and that is what they want, I am ok with AA. As an athiest it wouldn't be my thing though.

    One would hope, but it is OK and only OK could let this fly.

    Well, if you spend much time on this forum, I can't blame you for having doubts about us.

    Our wingnuts are a lot less evolved than most of the world.

    I think I'm more of a libertarian socialist than a liberal, but they're pretty similar on a lot of things.

    The best part is these small minority of wingnuts is convinced their veiws are shared by the majority of Americans. To much time in the echo chamber is rotting there brains. Political forums are were the fringe elements like to hang out to circle jerk themselves off to eachothers paranoia.

    that's true, this is why a petition should be started to take that judge, and any judge like him, out of office. i think it's funny that the defendant won't appeal because the sentence is better than jail time, which ironically is a very selfish, and not very christian, thing to do. kinda makes you think of those "what would jesus do?" bracelets. i bet Jesus would take the jail time.

    If he had taken the "What would Jesus do" route he'd never be in this situation to begin with, as the Bible teaches you to "Obey the laws of the land".

    Should it now. :roll:

    First, you'd have to provide a compelling enough argument that this judge's actions were in violation of the Constitution. I do not believe that they are; I have written my argument in detail as to why his actions were perfectly Constitutional - read it.

    Why? Would the Christian thing to do be request the Death Penalty for himself instead of the 10 years prison time, because prison time would have been easier?

    Congratulations: you've built up an entire straw hut of nonsense in order to squirm yourself into the position of besmirching Christians. I think you don't have any idea of what you're speaking.

    That'd mean that anyone who criticizes Bush is an idiot - because he's a former President, and they're just anonymous internet people. Argument from authority fallacy.

    Well, libertarian socialists are liberals. "Liberal" just refers to the left side of the economic spectrum, which is where we are.

    Welcome to the club, by the way. ;)

    Yes, anyone posting on the Internet that claims to be superior to Bush is a loser and a moron. Did you think that somehow negates my point about the loser thinking they are smarter then Obama?
