Ever see a psychologist because of grade problems in college? Now EVERYONE can see it! Ever go on anti-depressants after your husband died suddenly? Now EVERYONE can see it! Ever have a febrile seizure when you were five? Now EVERYONE can read it!
Why do I keep see folks here asking “why”?
This is the moment!
This is where the dictator starts his choke hold to bring the economy to its knees and the power to the government to its ultimate control of the citizens.
This is/was NEVER about health care.
This is/was NEVER about a second term.
This is/was NEVER about the citizens voice.
Why can’t people see this for what it really is?
We have been free, content and coddled for so long many can’t see evil as it forms in front of their eyes.
THEY ARE MAKING THEIR MOVE!!!!!
INCORRECT...
The Radicals think if they get this passed, it INSURES Democrat Rule FOREVER...
email McConnell Freepers!!! I did!!! Let them know our disgust with ANY form of a compromise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly! That is the main reason they need to go — ask several questions since they obviously have not been consulted on any of this.
Very well said! You get it!
Time for Republicans to tell him where to blow it out of...
Yes, I know, dangling prepositions are something up with which I will not put...
Last I checked they had opened flat...
No, it is supposed to be a huge tax.
If the Democrats would just stop and think a second they'd realize we will need to prosecute the whole lot of them.

Broaden the Medicare Hospital Insurance (HI) Tax Base for High-Income Taxpayers.
Under current law, people who earn a salary pay the Medicare HI tax on their earned income, but
those who have substantial unearned income do not, raising issues of fairness. The House bill
includes a 5.4% surcharge on high-income households to improve the fairness of the tax system
and to support health reform. The Senate bill includes an increase in the HI tax for high-income
households for similar reasons, an increase of 0.9% on earnings above a specific threshold for a
total employee assessment of 2.35% on these amounts. The President’s Proposal adopts the
Senate bill approach and adds a 2.9 percent assessment (equal to the combined employer and
employee share of the existing HI tax) on income from interest, dividends, annuities, royalties
and rents, other than such income which is derived in the ordinary course of a trade or business
which is not a passive activity (e.g., income from active participation in S corporations) on
taxpayers with respect to income above $200,000 for singles and $250,000 for married couples
filing jointly. The additional revenues from the tax on earned income would be credited to the
HI trust fund and the revenues from the tax on unearned income would be credited to the
Supplemental Medical Insurance (SMI) trust fund. http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/summary-presidents-proposal.pdf
“The GOP says this: “The American people do not want a bad This is a bad bill. We will never say ‘yes’ to a bad bill. “

We win, they lose.”

Haven't seen anything like that in a long time.

“Obama is a Republican Mole, and he was put there to destroy the Democrat Party for the next 100 years”
His stupidity makes one wonder.
Breaking: MSM...Palin is stupid.
This thing is sounding more and more like Hitler’s ENABLING ACT....
MAO-bam, Dhimmie, BAM, No-Bama, Zero...
As much as I hate Obama and the rest of his ilk, as mature Conservative adults, we should not sound like the liberal, saliva-spitting, hotheads over on democraticunderground.
