It's not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes.
« on: November 12, 2013, 07:44:22 PM »
Ahhh yes.  Let's re-define "enrolled" to include those that haven't actually enrolled, but simply have put a plan in their shopping cart.  By this standard I own a Ferrari, a 1903A3, several 1911's, and few trips hither and yon.

So I predict this will be a huge success despite all the problems with the website.  Boy, MiniPlenty is doing a great job with the Victory Gin and Chocolate rations.

The real numbers are actually pretty low and not the numbers needed to support the ACA.  And when people get hit with the 1% tax for not signing up.  (It's not $95, it's 1% of your income, so if you make more than $9,500.00 you're gonna get whacked with more.)

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Random question:  Just exactly HOW has it been communicated to the entire nation, that:
1. Subset A of the entire population must sign up somehow.
2. Subset A is defined as: ???
3. Enrollment date deadline is timestamp().


I know the answer to none of these questions, and I'm a freaking nooz wonk.  How is the rest of the US going to know this, when they're busy watching American Idol and booking their faces?

They use the same kind of math they used when the Obama said "Jobs created or saved".

He's a big fat liar. He's lied more that Tricky Dicky ever did but nothing will really come of it.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

What worries and dissapoints me is that nobody see the obvious and easy answer - Shrub screwed up Hillary's plan so badly that this is what we got.

It's a twofer - the damned Repubs are at fault, and it shows that Hillary cannot plan well enough thus leaving Moochelle as the logical choice for 2016.

stay safe.
