Journal fustakrakich's Journal: "I'm, like, a really smart person." 43

He certainly is. I'm registering as a republican to make sure he gets the nom. Nobody is even remotely more representative of the present day republican voter. It will be like switching their favorite coffee with Folgers Instant Coffee Crystals. They won't know the difference. In fact they'll probably want a second cup.

"He says everything that's in our hearts. No baloney... He's got to keep it up. Keep it going."

"He's not afraid to say what we feel... No one else tells it like it is."

"He's telling like it is. He's an American hero"

The people who deny this are like the liars in the famous masturbation survey. Yes, you know who you are :-)

    • :-) You,sir, are stuck in an infinite loop of pure gibberish. But it is a bit charming, charismatic, kinda like Reagan's blissful dementia, enough for you yourself to win. You can do it, you know. You fit the mold of today's 'winner' perfectly.

    • Meh. Sorry, but you've got it wrong. Currently Trump is polling high because the rest of the GOP candidates are all pushing the same agenda as each other, making votes for each of them interchangeable with votes for any other one of them. Trump is just pushing a slightly more amped up agenda right now, which brings out slightly more voters.

      Just wait, the others will eventually start dropping. Jindal will fall out first. Then Rubio, then Cruz and Perry. That leaves you with Bush, Christie, and Walk
      • She gets JEB nominated, and Her Majesty has this one sown up. You'll get your Single Payer.

          Possibly.

          You'll get your Single Payer.

          Not a chance. It can't happen by executive order. It has to go through congress. Even if Hillary wins, single payer will never happen unless there are enough in congress who want it to push it through. And frankly, I'm not convinced Hillary is liberal enough anymore to go for it. I'd be surprised if we managed to get single payer before the year 2030.

          • No, the recent SCOTUS decision on PooPoo-cACA shows that these legacy structures to which you allude are not meaningful where Progress is concerned.
            The economy will be crashed and the people will be permitted to beg for relief from Her Majesty.
            • Perhaps you haven't noticed, but when evaluating a bill, the SCOTUS does not have the ability to add new properties to said bill. The HIIBA 2010 Act does not have any provisions in it for Single Payer, at all. They might as well be re-evaluating the 2000 presidential election and claiming that the conclusion is for authorization to start publicly executing spammers in Times Square every Thursday.

              This is not a matter of "Progress", no matter how you may aspire to twist the meaning of that word.

                Apparently you weren't paying attention to the steaming loaf of crap Roberts excreted. ObamaCare is a river of lies, from conception to the part where it dumps into the Bay of Single Payer. Thus, additional falsehoods from you are another drip in the crap flood.

                  No part of SCOTUS added functionality to HIIBA 2010. Period.

                  The rest of your comment is just conspiracy nonsense. You would have been no less reasonable had you included reptoid illuminati in the forecast.

                  • No part of SCOTUS added functionality to HIIBA 2010. Period.

                    Roberts effected a qualitative re-write of the law. Congress may as well have passed "Green Eggs and Ham" by Dr. Seuss, for all there was any support for the ruling.
                    The Affordable Care Act is a river of lies, and will only ever be seen as legitimate by the turd munching community. Scott Walker's repeal pledge yesterday warmed my heart.

                      Roberts effected a qualitative re-write of the law.

                      No, he did not. The ruling impacted one small phrase in the law. You were complaining before that it was too large, but you should be glad that the ruling was about one specific phrase. It doesn't change how it works in any significant way.

                      Scott Walker's repeal pledge yesterday warmed my heart.

                      So when it is repealed, and then re-passed as "WalkerCare", you will celebrate it. Got it. He certainly hasn't proposed any kind of health care reform bill that differs significantly from it, nor has any currently standing republican representative or senator. You

                    • Re-write? Or "clarify"?

                      You know, with the IRS in charge (and a very notable lack of resistance on that aspect from either side), the upcoming abuse will be hot and heavy. They will charge uninsured people with tax evasion. You already have to declare your status on the form (line 61?). If you're looking for real horror in the bill, it would be there. At the very damn least, they should have to do all the paperwork. It is something we should demand of every government agency. You guys could have accomplished

                    • We are still suffering the Reagan legacy. I love how they rub it in on the 8965:

                      Marketplace-Granted Coverage Exemptions for Individuals...

                      Exactly what you wanted. The *market* controls the government... This is why the republicans like this kind of law. Their faux protesting notwithstanding. It provides a captive clientele. Your friend Walker (still taking his frustrations out on Marquette) isn't about to kill a golden goose. Like d_r, you fantasize on false campaign promises. The tribalism still shows.

                    • :-) I don't think you will convince me that murder and assault rates are down because more pot smokers are in jail. Proving something like that would be newsworthy indeed. I'll put our local prohibitionist, d_r, right on it. I'm sure he'll be totally non-biased.

                    • You're gonna need a bigger non-sequitur for this evasion to work.
                    • Guess you don't know your own links, huh?

                    • Can you be less specific?
                    • Oh brother! You don't even know why the man is famous? Have you forgotten that I'm supposed to be the dense one here?

            That Goldwater girl was never liberal enough to want it.

        • Single payer? From Hillary?? Very funny! We already have Hillary/Heritage care. For them, it can't get any better. And your caricatures are so... mature :-)

          • You're mocking the catechism of Holy Progress? Infidel!
            • I don't know what that means. Progress is something to strive for. I mean, if you want to keep using the pisspot and walk in muddy horse shit, by all means. Some of us prefer the more sanitary, cosmopolitan lifestyle of indoor plumbing with clean water coming out of the tap and the sweet smell of diesel exhaust. Now, I know you don't want the "lazy" to enjoy all that high tech, but then you shouldn't be arresting them for peeing in the alley.

              • My turn not to "know what that means". However, my assurance of your innate superiority remains unshaken. Hasn't stirred, either.
                "Holy Progress", of course, is mocking the Lefty need to produce frantic activity to excite the flesh. Sad thing is that the activity is rarely in any direction with an empirically positive result.
