I’m pretty surprised at this from Coburn, one of my favorite members of all of Congress.

It would appear that copies of the boudoir pictures of a naked Coburn cavorting with little midgets in cocoa butter have been sent from Rahm Emanuel’s office to Nazi Pelosi.

The real story here isn’t Coburn calling Pelosi “nice.” It’s his assertion that a woman on FNC who said “they can put us in prison” for not obtaining gov’t-approved health insurance under Obamacare is misinformed. She’s not, obviously. So either Coburn doesn’t know the contents of the bill or he’s lying about its contents.

Another house RINO. Boy...what a surprise. Apparently Coburn isn’t concerned about the loss of his credibility.

They’ll tell you that the state is loaded with conservatives...

... but never explain why almost 2/3 of their congressional delegation is a bunch of evil Marxist Donks...

...and why members of the 1/3 minority will defend the evil Marxist Donk tyrants.

But Pelosi is not a good person. Doesn’t matter how many times that guy repeats the mantra, Nancy will never be good.

I would say that Coburn’s defintion of a “good person” and mine are two very different things.

Tom Coburn is exactly correct. Most liberals are good are good hearted and well intentioned. Likewise most of those who supported the Bolshevik revolution were good hearted and well intentioned.

We make a mistake in attacking people’s character and motives. Our strength is in the facts. The fact is that many well intentioned people are going to hell.

The fact is that good intentions rarely result in good results. The law of unintended consequences rules.

Example from our side. Some freepers support a big government approach to immigration that would give the gubmint the power to tell private employers who they can and cannot hire. They think they have good intentions.

They don’t see that government will not use that new power against illegal immigrants. Gubmint will use that new power against those on a DHS hate-list given to it by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

“Coburn Urges to Stay Informed from Many Sources . . .”

In other word, be sure to take lies into consideration before forming your opinions.

Whatever moron.

Coburn Says Use of IRS to Enforce ObamaCare Not Intended to Put People in Jail. . .

Operative word here is *intended*.

It can, and will wind up doing so, -but that is not its "intention".

Coburn just morphed into Robert Gibbs.

Absolutely pathetic.

“Are there any conservatives left in Californication??”

Well, I believe there is a rumor that Free Republic
is based in Fresno and then there is me up here in
rural NorCal so , yes, there are “conservatives left
in Californication”.

As a point of fact, if you looked at an electoral map
of CALIFORNIA you would learn that there is a similarity
between the Golden State and the nation. The coastal
area which contains the majority of population is
very blue while the interior area including the
great Central Valley and the Sierra Nevadas is very
red. Since you now know, it sure be nice if you didn’t
paint us with a broad brush.
