Impeach Obama

[stonedape]

I know ACA isn't great, but it's still better than what we had before. It's a baby step forward. Like i said: fewer people will die a year because of ACA. We just need to continue improving the system. Unfortunately the republicans are obstructionists, and now that they have a majority it's probably going to be really bad.

ACA has only been around a few months and you already claim Fewer people die a year? Death is inevitable. Everybody is going to die every year.

As I said ACA has short term benefits but long term problems. The federal government isn't here to micromanage the healthcare system, nor are they able to. But they're going for it anyways. Guess what's going to happen? Obama won't be president forever. Republicans will eventually get their grubby mitts on it. They're not going to repeal it at that point. Then they're going to have sex with your corpse while eating babies.

In poker a player who sighs on the flop but then check raises you is telling you one thing with his words and another thing with his actions.

Pro-tip - if you ever see me do that, turbo-fold.

(The point here being, ordinarily, you'd expect that this tell means the bettor is weak. In my case, what it often means is "ship me your stack". I wonder what the point is I'm making here. )

The sigh on the flop is an expression by the player that he is weak. The checkraise is bold move which suggests the player is strong. Against a typical, unsophisticated player...I put more credence in his actions and not his words.

If you ever play against me....say at Muckleshoot....I do on rare occasions...checkraise bluff.....so you better call me down just to be safe.

I wouldn't put it past them.

You are much more likely to be eaten by a shark than a terrorist.

Ain't that the truth.

I disagree with the analogy. A shark attack is a freak event in which not much is ever done to prevent it. Its like a lightening strike....getting killed by one is a freak random event.

Dying by terrorist attack is more like getting infected with polio. It is rare event only because we work at making it a rare event.

I did my research, Heywood, I was unable to find any definitive evidence of anyone being eaten by a terrorist.

They're so selfish, even in bed. They never "go down" on you. No, no, it's all about them...

The kind of things that actually could get Obama impeached are the things that these republicans who want to impeach him approve of. The stuff with drone strikes and NSA spying and such.

Two things that have surprised me about Obama are this: One is his reluctance to prosecute people for water boarding terror suspects. The other is his embrace of drone strikes and NSA spying and such.

It makes me wonder about the actual threats we actually face. Are we in a lot more danger than the government lets on?

It made me think that he wasn't terribly different from Dubya, at the end of the day. When I voted for Obama, I wanted to see my government change its offensive behavior and intrusive ways.

According to Secular Talk, which is my source for beter or worse, the act has greatly reduced the number of deaths per year from people who didn't have healthcare, and kept people from losing their insurance due to lifetime caps. It's an improvement.

According to the New York Times....people are starting to find it harder and harder to actually get care.

Which is not surprising since the Affordable Care(if you can get it) Act did nothing to increase the amount of health care produced in this country.

If it prevents the GOP from gutting more of the middle class and creating more poverty, and the impeachment blows up in their face to the point it gets us a Dem pres and reverses this last midterm, let them. The GOP are a bunch of pricks who work for big business.
