I agree that if the Democrats wake up they can turn this negative into a positive. After watching Coakley in the build up to last night, I was shaking my head over her most sloppy campaign.

BTW, did “Brownshirt” run with an (I) after his name on the ballot since I never once heard him utter the “R” word? And the Republicans like McConnell and Steele are gloating over THEIR victory this morning.

My how SHORT TERM or SELECTIVE is the memory of the Republicans!!!!

why are conservatives such as yourself so obsessed with nationalizing everything. Stop already! it isnt going to happen, no matter how much you hope it will!!

You have a lot of replies on here, and I have to say I can see how passionately you feel about your point of view. I have a lot of respect for the depths of these beliefs, and want to offer some suggestions for how to stand up for these beliefs:

Stand up against the public school system (which I hope you didnt attend. If you did, you should repay the taxpayers right away, so you can be comfortable that you didnt receive a socialist-indoctrination type of education). You should make a sign and go protest in front of any public school! Stand up for what you believe is right!

Make sure you contact the fire and police departments, so that they are aware you do NOT need or want their involvement in anything related to your person or premises. We all understand the need for these services, so you should set up a billing procedure that they follow in order to pay for these services if ever they are need. (This is certainly NOT something you should have to think about if your home burns down or you are robbed. Just wait for the invoice — so easy)

Start hauling your trash to the local dump yourself. What better way to demonstrate your American spirit than by people seeing the work you put in to NOT having trash service stop at your house.

make sure you do not use any public transportation — buses, subways, etc. If you walk or drive everywhere, people will know that you exude the true spirit of Capitalism (bonus points for NOT being in a carpool — make sure your travels are on your dollar and your dollar alone — dont want any potential appearance of accepting a handout in the form of a ride). Unfortunately, you have no choice but to use public roadways — this will have to be ok, but strict adherence to the above notions will certainly help.

use only fedex and UPS. Dont send anything through the mail — yes, it isnt a perfect system anyway, and spending 43¢ per letter, instead of the higher charge from the private companies, screams I AM A SOCIALIST. Better to fight this now.

Protest all branches of the military. This is one of the biggest socialist organizations around! Even the National Guard. I mean, come on, can anyone believe that when disaster strikes, this group will go to that area and help out. What an insult to Americans! You should start protesting outside of recruiting centers (this could be a great day, if you start at the schools in the morning, then move to military facilities).

Good luck with your efforts to ensure America continues to thrive!!

did you actually READ the link you posted?

havent ever seen this blog, but I am glad I discovered it. A lot of your debunking are things I have discussed with many people — leading me to wonder why there is even an debate at all, considering that most of the opposition to health care reform has little to no factual basis, and is mostly a creation of scary things that could happen in the future. When did fortune telling become a legitimate talking point?

Anyway, thanks Mugsy. I will be saving this post and emailing it to people.
