bullshit
i only write for Brietbart
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
in '08 they just had a stack of approved names for registered voters to crosscheck against
in '12 they had a computer system, and I didn't have to show ID (i dont think at least, I did anyway) but I had to sign a form saying I was who I claim I was under penalty of jail

So you don't deny your love of pasta-as-pizza!
Ribbing aside and on-topic, Washington's system of voting is nice. Nuka and I are registered, we were sent ballots, filled them out, packed them up in double secret special included envelopes, signed them, and mailed them back in.
uhhh yeah and then they'll blame obama and their base will listen to them and so will a lot of idiot swing voters in Ohio
business as usual
it will be a long, bitter, and disastrous two years for the party if that happens
I think Obama will play the true believer and stonewall right to election day 2016

Considering the thing he'd be stonewalling would most likely be the Repubs trying to take away my health insurance, boy I hope so.

economic policies against the interests of most Americans are considered to be the norm, the only option
you can tell people about socialist or keynesian policies until you're blue in the face but it doesn't really matter
undoing a lifetime of ignorance isn't simply a matter of presenting correct information, being right isn't enough
not aware of any serious republican politician who is still advocating repeal. like, the last guys on that ship are Mike Huckabee and the pizza CEO

It's either going to happen within 48 hours of the new senate or never
i don't think they will have to. Plenty of southern democrats left out there who want to keep their jobs. Love those guys.

"You had two years to get shit done, and nothing's improved."
"OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA."
"Oh well I guess I won't be voting for him this year!"
And Obama stonewalling the Republicans would be fucking sweet justice.
I would say that virtually every Republican supports repealing the ACA. It's not that hard to find the names. Rand Paul just said it this week.
They just don't advocate trying to repeal it right now, because they know they can't achieve what they want while Obama is still in office, but the second he's out the door it's right back on the table.
I fully expect to be one accident away from being destitute again.
They're not going to and they're not going to have to. At this point the major political victory is the low hanging fruit of just making the exchanges not suck complete ass. They are seriously expensive. My fiance pays 8 times more than I do on the exchange for far less coverage.
Rand Paul is on his own planet and hardly representative of the whole

I'm not saying it will work, I'm saying it's what they're going to try
Repealing the ACA will be brought up again before November is over.
yeah like, most people have it and it's actually made their lives better, so the GOP has to know that repealing it would cost them more than it would gain them
so outside of a few diehard tea partiers I don't think that idea's going to go anywhere
And I have the best coverage I've ever had in my life for $17 bucks a month so...
you probably get subsidies
she doesn't. not because she has money, she's a teacher. but because she lives at the same address I do.
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
and everyone else in the GOP knows it, so to hold up something he said as a serious party goal is a little unwise
edit: medicaid funding not exchanges why I have no had any caffeine yet
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
She's a lunch lady what don't make any money at all.
IIRC, the subsidies pretty much end at the point that the Medicaid expansion is supposed to take over.
I saw one the other day that had a scary voice over say: "We live in a dangerous world," with grainy footage of ISIS training or whatever. And then the ad went on to criticize some politician for cutting local/municipal police. I want to meet the person who made that and just shake them by the shoulders while screaming "Really?!"
He seems like a decent enough guy and all, but I can recite his commercials in my sleep at this point. I've had enough.
doesn't add up. medicaid is for people who are exceptionally poor
even in a worst case scenario you should still receive full marketplace subsidy
which might not be free, but it would still be much much less than most peoples health insurance, and your standard of care would be higher than medicaid

you in Oakland? because i want to triple agree your post.
also Jean Quan was campaigning at my BART stop this morning. made this morning's commute a little surreal.

ACA is a bunch of shit.
Throw it out and put together your own NHS, those things are great.
No she doesn't. If you fall in that trap you are exempt from the tax penalty. I had the same problem and found that out while researching it. If you can afford the insurance keep it, but there is no extra reason you have to have it because states were dicks about Medicaid expansion.
