I haven't noticed that. Both sides seem richly supplied with them. Or have you forgotten Todd Akin? Mitt Romney? "Incurious" George W. Bush? Nope, haven't forgotten at all. One thing CERTAIN..... Romney was right on Russia while Bobo the bastard is still looking for his first clue. Again, now that we know whats in it........ its worse than we thought and I'm glad Crazy Harry thinks the border is secure. Tell me there shouldn't be at least a minimum test or IQ to run for political office. Any particular reason those two you pointed out... just happen to be... Black?...

Dr. Carson is a good and respected gentleman. He should stay out of politics.

I do think it's okay that she knew what she was talking about... and was right on target... if that's your definition of an imbecile... so be it... proof that she was right is this very issue going to the courts... I think it is extremely irresponsible to pass legislation without understanding it. I suppose I should give her some scant credit for honesty; she did ADMIT she was irresponsible in that way.

That's because Nancy is an imbecile. What's really sad, though, is that you seem to think that's okay. People with her evident lack of brainpower should not be serving as legislators at any level. I do think it's okay that she knew what she was talking about... and was right on target... if that's your definition of an imbecile... so be it... proof that she was right is this very issue going to the courts... How could she possibly know what she's talking about when SHE"D NEVER READ THE BILL? She had no idea what was in it, what it would do, or whether it would do anything at all. SHE DIDN"T READ IT.

I find it puzzling that people have that attitude about their tribal affiliations. I sorta doubt the poster has the same cavalier attitude about the other professionals he deals with! Would he be so understanding if his real estate attorney, medical doctor, engineer, accountant etc. just tweaked their way through his affairs? It's easy to see that the fellow has never been in business! Few of our legislators have.... and it shows. Most all things need "tweaking"... even my doctor had to "tweak" my blood pressure medication before he got it right... my financial adviser had to "tweak" my portfolio before I got the most out of it... etc..... "business" sees it only ONE way... their way... And did your doctor remove your spleen, one lung and a kidney to "tweak" your BP meds? That's what The Puppet has been doing to Puppettax. And he's still losing in the courts.

I bought a new Chevy several years ago... it was the first year for that new model... a Celebrity... I kept it two years and had it in the shop 13 times for major repairs... I even threatened to not pay the remaining balance on the car... GMAC reminded me that I had signed a contract to but it... I reminded them that I did... but that they had agreed to sell me a real car... not a lemon...

No... but had he deemed it necessary he might have suggested it... and I might have agreed... and it was expected that there would be changes... he's won a few... lost one or two... this, so far, isn't a permanent one...

And you know that how?... Because she said so, in her infamously stupid statement "WE have to pass it..." That means she never read it. Neither did any other Dem that voted for it. They just did what they were told.

She should have been summarily impeached for criminal stupidity. You don't know any of that for sure... Of course I do. First, she's a Democrat, so she's lying by definition. Second, she admitted that she hadn't bothered to read to bill. Her statement said so. Third, she's shown complete ignorance about anything at all connected with Puppettax.

But she did understand it on paper... she just didn't know how it would work when implemented... neither did anyone else... she was responsible in pointing that fact out... and she was oh, so right... Then she failed in her duty to her constituents. It is a sad commentary on them that they chose not to punish her for it, by replacing her. A big problem with this country is that not only do we tolerate incompetence and failure, we actually raise it the level of a virtue. Eventually, we will fall because of this and a country run by smarter people, and containing smarter people, will replace us. That will be sad for us, but good for the human species.

The Senate “didn't have a bill.” And until the Senate produced an actual piece of legislation that could be matched up and debated against what was passed by the House, no one truly knew what would be voted on. “They were still trying to woo the Republicans.” Pelosi said of the Senate leadership and the White House, trying to “get that 60th vote that never was coming. That’s why [there was a] reconciliation [vote]” that required only a simple majority.
“So, that’s why I was saying we have to pass a bill so we can see so that we can show you what it is and what it isn't.”
Pelosi didn't know what was in the bill because the bill had not even been written/submitted in the Senate... and... if you don't know what's in the Senate bill vs the House bill... you can't know how it's gonna work when implemented...

Polls... don't put a lot of stock in 'em... they're just what people "think"... not necessarily "know"... but just for the record... Not bad... not bad at all... Obama's job approval rating hasn't gone below 42% since he's been in office... to hear you right-wingers, you'd think it was lower than anyone in modern times... but "W's" went as low as 19%... Clinton's as low as 36%... H.W Bush's as low as 29%... Reagan's as low as 35%... Carter's as low as 28%... Ford's as low as 37%... Nixon's as low as 23%... and Johnson's as low as 35%... one has to go all the way back to John Kennedy to find a President who's job approval rating DIDN'T drop lower than Obama's... Kennedy's dropped only to 56%... (but then he wasn't in office that long)...

It is not okay. But it is ok ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, for Democrats that cant think for themselves, Witness who is posting on that side of the discussion
