Well, why don't you tell us what he should say then?
Big picture JM you act like the government is doing you a favor--they have put government in a place it was never intended to be--and to thank them for throwing out crumbs is just exactly how they hope you respond--it gives them more power over you and more of your money all the while telling you its for your own good
Question: Do you think that the majority of the ruling class (both parties) are capable of reforming itself and giving up power and putting it back in the peoples control
Because I don't think that is the case--if it is you need to point to a area where the government is not involved or regulates your activity
Yes, the govt. is overreaching. But in the case at hand, Zerocare, not one Republican voted for this monstrosity. They've tried to stop it and slow it down. To delay is the answer in the moment.
Crying foul because we don't get our way at every turn is silly, we are the minority and we don't call the shots, but we can get this Zerocare derailed if and only if we use our brains and not emotions.
Take Romney for example, emotions and not brains had people sit out the vote and we got Zero again. That was just brilliant doncha think?
They all voted against ACA, they didnt sit it out so your point is off. Along with 34 democrats. As far as CR vote last week, it was a no win but you will never agree with that. In any case it's history and the next move is what counts. DELAY!
