This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Because there were other people in Congress who talked about death panels and tried to kill it at every turn. Reps hate the populace, and try their best to neuter everything good for the people. Also, some pretty right-leaning Dems were there. Have you paid ANY attention to politics?

Maybe don't tout a half-measure that comprimised with literal ghouls as a defining unequivocal win for the party then?

You some champion of missing the point? That's what we got despite all odds.

It's like you people don't understand politics or history. No wonder we elected a fucking fascist into office. JFC
