I hope I did this correctly.

I searched for the title, and it didn’t come up.

Sometime back, this was to be funded mostly by savings...

While most probably knew this to be fallacious, I will continue to ask my “representatives” (sadly, Montana) what happened to those savings?

Of course there is also the question of the need for HEALTH CARE or the need for HC INSURANCE?

I very much agree with you (and isn't that how Frank/Dodd got our US financial's into this bubble burst?)(almost world wide?)

BUT, I am very serious as to the sudden loss of those SAVINGS that were to fund the majority of this loss of individual freedom! (when it's MANDATORY, there is a loss of freedom)

Scary but very predictable. Totalitarians are everywhere and we must be vigilant and well armed for when they surface.

I prefer to use our Constitution and law. Tar and feathers are not regulated and may be useful as an intermediate (since Town Hall meetings have been taken as nothing more than "I was here and I listened, now this is how it's going to be....!"

I grew up in the land of the Minuteman and learned their lessons well. May it not come to that.

Math was not a required course in Harvard Law School.
2 + 2 = 5

“Iffy math”, you are too kind, but then I am not a nice person.

It was a bald face lie.

The worm doesn’t know how to tell the truth, but he knows he’s lying and believes we are too stupid to see through it or too lazy to care.

Nothing "iffy" about it.

He intentionally plans to fiat print his way out of debt, ala bananna republic/Zimbabwe style.

Only an idiot would think this is a good idea, an idiot or someone actually trying to take down our nation.

We are a Christian nation. Hussein is not a Christian! Does the math add up for you now?

Domestic enemy indeed!!!

“Iffy” is PC speak for LIE.

1. Obama was the first to accuse his opponents - "not just by radio and cable talk show hosts, but prominent politicians" - of lying about aspects of "his" health care "plan".

2. Obama was the one saying in the speech "To those who misrepresent the plan to rouse opposition, we will call you out"

Joe Wilson (R-SC) simply didn't waste any time in putting this call in action and "called Obama out" on his lies about nonexistent details of nonexistent "options" of nonexistent "plan".

Our first Kenyan-American President (Bill Clinton was the "first black" one) deserved to be "called out" on his iffy or fuzzy math, he just didn't expect it to happen so fast and at the hands of a "prominent politician".
