Common sense says it's highly likely, given the fact that many of them have spoken quite loudly about blocking it's success in any way they can. But, "republican" isn't entirely accurate, and I regret using it here. I tend to use the word to describe the more radical, or extremely partisan, elements within the republican party. The more moderate republicans appear to be damn good people, but they also tend to have little say, or sway, within their party.
Quick question, for the die-hard partisan republicans out there who have had insurance for at least twenty years: Has your insurance premium always been the same price? If you answer "Yes!", then you probably @#$% the right people. Give me their names, or I will crush you!
If any Republicans have so far been able to successfully "sabotage" (as you liberals put it) Obamacare, I'd like to congratulate them. Can anyone here give me a list so that I may contact them?
My insurance premiums stayed exactly the same for 20 years. 20 Freaking Years! Twenty!!! No Change! Not one penny of an increase! They only went up soon after Senator Obama became President Obama! Yes, the above are completely true statements. But the reasons for the premium increase have absolutely nothing to do with the President, his policies, or Obamacare.
From what we've witnessed, Obamacare is a self-sabotaging mess. Who would have guessed a government program that gets folks thrown off their insurance, increases rates for those lucky enough to have coverage, eliminates jobs and cuts workers hours would be a failure? All the while, people are forced to sign up (or risk IRS penalties) on a website that doesn't work & subjected to lie after lie from aristocrats who exempt themselves from its clutches?
As fascinated as you've been with my genitalia over the past year or two I'm surprised you'd even bring this up.
I expected there was an exception to the rule, but the rule itself...that of ever-increasing premiums with the passage of time...remains true. I know you know that though too, so no foul/no harm lol The truth is that @#$% generally gets more expensive as time passes, again with minor exceptions (as with the launch of a product and an increase in production, or a newer, better version of that product, that drops the costs down...though the effect is typically temporary).
David, David, David... *sigh* Always the genitalia thing. Perhaps less online porn would mitigate the obsession. I'm no professional, but it couldn't hurt. Meanwhile, I think what our learned Liberal friend is alluding to and what you're struggling with is hatred of your own genitalia, as small a problem as it might seem. In short, a woman, trapped in a body with male-like characteristics, that I for one would wholeheartedly support be corrected at tax payer expense. Medicaid should pay, because you are a victim of nature, which is not perfect, all the time. Love, sister. Be strong. Liberals support you. "Life sucks, then we're reincarnated." - - Anonymous
Yeah, but have you seen it? (begins walking over to David) Now, from here, you can't see @#$%, not with that flab of loose flesh hanging over it, but it really is kinda interesting. (Arrives at David, reaches for mass of flab and struggles to lift it uniformly) This stuff is like jello, but it's kinda like a really really soft tortoise shell, especially once you actually "see" the penis. (searches crotch-area) It's tough to find sometimes, especially if you're poor, as it tends to withdraw into itself, becoming something like an "inny", which is why most people get confused it's a dude. Oh, wait! See that round bump thing there, in that depression? Hey there little fella, it's OK, I'm not gonna hurt you. (penis digs in deeper) Oh, come on now, don't be like that! (to Tea4Tards) It's a shy little bastard, but it can be coaxed out, as long as you have a coin or bill with you. (takes out a dollar bill) Heyyyyy, little fella....herrrrre boy, come on....come on....look what I have! What do I have? What do I have, boy! (penis slowly emerges and sniffs the air) At this point, you rrrreally gotta be careful 'cause... (penis snaps at dollar, almost grabbing it, but just out of reach) ....See that?!! You gotta be careful how close you get with stuff. Last week it got my watch. But, in all seriousness, now that it's out, if you take a step back or two, doesn't it look like a bearded-turtle? (to David) Dude, if you painted that flab to look like a tortoise shell, you could rake in loads $$$ on the carnival side-show circuit.
