> They ought to butt the fuck out of politics. If they have a political message to promote, they need to find a secular platform from which to do so. Now that their old umbrella, the GOP, has been reduced to a batshit crowd of morons (with no small help from their evangelical Igors) these religious fuckers think they can suck up to the left and drag it down into bullshit nonsense as well. We’ve got enough problems. Stick to the kingdom that is not of this world, religicos!!!

They support health care reform as long as Obama promises that he won’t use it to pay for librul’s favorite pastime: aborting babies. Even though there won’t be any funding for that, Obama, being the liar that he is, can’t be totally trusted until he promises over and over and over again that this is so and only when Bill Donohue truly believes him can we truly take Obama at his word (which is impossible, because he’s a liar, as well as socialist, marxist . . .).

> **Maia’s Well** : Even though I have health insurance, I would still be against UHC even if I did not have it. It’s a moral issue with me, as well as a constitutional issue. I believe it is immoral to force people to pay for the health care of others (I am against theft), and I believe it is unconstitutional for the federal government to be involved in the health care industry at any level.

Good, you’re against theft. Now that we’ve established that, and that your definition of theft includes taxes, then it must very broad. Does it include misappropriated land? Say the government took land from one person, or group, by force, to sell or give it to another, would you include this in your definition of theft?
