EDIT: The sentence in my last post should read "How about if I show you thirty-nine Democrats who voted AGAINST it?"

I just realized that there is only one party that often votes unanimously in lockstep. And, guess what? It's not the Democrats. Getting all Democrats to agree unanimously is like herding cats.

I think I'm starting to discern what is likely to be the main GOP campaign strategy for 2016: "racism failed in 2008 and 2012; let's try an appeal to sexism instead".

The attacks on Hillary are already sexist and disgusting.
I just realized I didn't provide the NAMES of the Democrats who voted against the Healthcare Act. You can find them all, listed by state, here: http://www.searchnc.com/who-voted-for-obamacare.html |

You don't have to be a registered republican to be a card carrying member of the cult of "NO". The only republican plan that I can see is to humiliate the black man.

Funny you and Al are in lock step huh? Let me ask you Bob when you said the president made a mistake by the red line comment were you a racist?

Danny. You pointedly IGNORED the fact that you were absolutely WRONG when you stated that all Democrats voted for the ACA.
The ONLY Senate Republican, though, who I believe voted for it, was John McCain. And WHERE, pray tell, did I say ANYTHING whatsoever about the attacks being based on racism??? I was responding to the disgusting and sexist attacks that Limbaugh and his ditto heads are throwing out daily about HILLARY CLINTON. No sexism, you say? You haven't read the "Hilda Hag" "screeching," "ugly" and "man-like" comments that have already started to pollute what were once intelligent discussions. But, last I looked, she's white. But, again, please quote were I said that those who opposed the President only do so because of racism. I didn't Once again you posted a blatantly false statement. But this time it's about me and I'm not feeling as friendly as I did many posts back when I said I thought you were a moderate. Seems I may have been mistaken. That or you just take great enjoyment in attacking me regardless of what I say or believe. Since you've already got me stereotyped, that wouldn't be surprising. Whatever. But, again, are you still maintaining, DESPITE THE FACTS, that no Democrats opposed the ACA? Or are you just going to let that slide since you were proven to be completely wrong? If I'd have made a false statement like that about something that was easily verifiable, I would have acknowledged it and apologized. You, on the other hand, have just deflected that completely and changed the subject. I guess some people are just immune to facts when they've already made up their minds. |

YOU scream sexism he screams racism. Same thing really. Was calling her names much different from calling Bush stupid or for that matter Quayle? Of course it is lets hear how that name calling is ok. I am sure you can come up with the usual excuse s for the behavior.

Back to the original topic and the NFL promoting the ACA. As far as I am concerned so what? It is law. Shouldn't be strange to promote it.
I may disagree with the law but I would disagree far more with not allowing them to promote the law of the land!

In fact, the NFL is taking no stance on Obamacare. The GOP scared it off from promoting Obamacare a while back: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/06/......gues-to/ "The National Football League appears to be bucking the Obama administration's request to help promote the health care overhaul, as Republican lawmakers pressure all the major sports leagues not to get involved in the effort. In a statement obtained by Fox News, an NFL spokesman said the league has "no plans to engage in this area and (has) had no substantive contact with the administration" about the implementation." What IS happening is that a single team in a single state has signed on independently to spread the word about that single state’s health insurance marketplace: http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2013/09/03......amacare/ "Maryland health officials announced Tuesday that they will partner with the Baltimore Ravens football team this fall to help spread the word about the state’s health insurance marketplace that will allow consumers to shop for health insurance starting in October." "The Obama administration had been hoping to partner with the National Football League to promote its signature health law, also known as Obamacare, but the league balked after some Republican lawmakers issued a warning to sports organizations to avoid the issue."

How about facts.
 Are all of these differences attributable to racist voters? What about the statistic that indicates that almost 80% of all Mormons voted Romney? This discussion has become infantile.

Once Al starts throwing the race card to explain why people disagree with the president yes it is infantile. Maybe if enough peoe called him on his bs it would stop and not degrade from there?

So, Danny, are you saying that referring to Hillary Clinton as "screetching," as "Hilda the Hag" and as masculine is NOT blatant
sexism? Who woulda thought? And it's only just getting started. In another thread you were on the other side, asking why we just can't call Barack Obama "the President" instead of all the name calling. I assume you would agree that the sexist name calling is equally inappropriate for Hillary Clinton aka SENATOR Clinton or MADAME Secretary. I was't joking about Limbaugh, the man who brought us "Barack the Magic Negro," refers to the First Lady as "fat" and as "Moochelle" and, not to forget, didn't see anything racist about the disgusting post card an elected Republican official sent out depicting watermelons on the White House lawn. And the funny thing is that there are those here who quote Limbaugh verbatim as if they just thought up these "witticisms" themselves. Talk about lock step. How about "mindless lemmings?" |
