Mebbeso, but many lefties-in-power from 1789 on have done just exactly that, you know. Not that righties-in-power over the same period have been any nicer.

[raises eyebrows] The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one. Opposition to the ACA is most illogical.

You think the courtship for Michelle involved hand to hand combat with some mutant _naginata_? Worth it, I’m thinking. Scorches footprints in the sidewalk when she barefoots.

Not to mention that **DT** has made his opinions on the opposition so crystal clear that I have to kinda wonder what he WOULD do given unlimited power. 😉

You don’t have to actually write the “never mind” part.

It’s redundant after seeing your name at the top of the post.

Jesus fucking Christ, you’re an asshole. And a cowardly one at that. What, exactly, have I posted to piss you off?

I agree with silenus. [page 24, Section 1002](http://www.politico.com/story/2013/10/senate-bill-government-shutdown-98411.html)"Default Prevention Act of 2013". I think McConnell came up with this during the 2011 Debt Follies…

But when this “standard accusation” is leveled against you (to some degree) by fellow liberals and atheists, it should give you at least a moment’s pause.

I’m a liberal, and an atheist, and I agree with him. The only thing preventing you from herding people into camps is the fact that no one is stupid enough to give you any sort of power or authority.
