Everyone knows it did not, so that would be a dumb thing to "lie" about.<br /><br />You're probably mad about the terrible AHCA not passing... due to the fact that <a href="http://jermac1955.blogspot.com/2016/09/presidential-health.html" rel="nofollow">you rooted for Trump</a>! I bet you're rooting for Obamacare to fail "if for no other reason than to shove it down the throats of these mean, hate filled, crazy liberals"! Because you don't care if Americans suffer or even die, the IMPORTANT thing - as far as a hate-filled asshole like you is concerned - is that Liberals have Trump "shoved down their throats"!Dervish Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13671865801885224353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21976234.post-56136749906748091392017-03-29T13:49:50.885-05:002017-03-29T13:49:50.885-05:00As I revealed in the previous installment, the sto...As I revealed in the previous installment, the story takes place in the past. So what I was told (over 3 years ago) about Trump and the GOP getting rid of Obamacare turned out to be wrong. That is not a lie! Possibilities: (1) Something happened to change the future, (2) The bill could be reintroduced later and pass, (3) Obamacare still be repealed at a later date (4) Trump and the Republicans are sabotaging Obamacare. Which, if they succeed, could take down Obamacare and people could still lose their healthcare.<br /><br />Typical of you to claim "lie" when there is no lie. And when it is you who is the liar. As with your unpublished comment about me ever claiming that you are "8 other people". You have multiple IDs. Something I have proven. But IDs are not "people". You are NOT "8 other people". You have multiple IDs! A fact many other people are aware of (Ducky and RN, for example).

We can't let the bad behavior of a minority of poor people stop us from helping the majority of poor people who are good people, but need help. <br /><br />We also have a minority of wealthy people and corporations behaving badly. We cannot let that minority stop us from helping the majority of Americans achieve at least a healthy middle class life. <br /><br />We have the ultimate power, the vote. But we have to exercise it and exercise it with intelligence, compassion, and logic. It takes work and commitment, but it can be done without violence, hate, or recrimination. <br /><br />Jerry Critterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870618647449723147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21976234.post-90092198158734185622017-03-27T20:49:04.566-05:002017-03-27T20:49:04.566-05:00Parasitical corporations and uber wealthy people b...Parasitical corporations and uber wealthy people bribing politicians to <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/nov/23/trump-tax-plan-cuts-wealthy-low-income-inequality" rel="nofollow">get their taxes lowered</a>, be gifted with <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/taxanalysts/2014/03/14/where-is-the-outrage-over-corporate-welfare/#152276d027dd" rel="nofollow">corporate welfare</a> money, be <a href="https://www.buzzfeed.com/danvergano/trump-announces-end-to-climate-and-pollution-rules-as-a-firs" rel="nofollow">allowed to pollute</a>, etc is a MUCH bigger problem IMO.

Based on <b>MY</b> interpretation of basic definitions. Rand was influenced heavily, and very negatively by the Bolsheviks and totalitarian rule.

I've said that before on this blog and you disagreed. The "in agreement with you" was not in regard to Rand's belief that poor people should be exterminated. Which, if you call them "parasites" is a logical conclusion. I do not recall you ever using that language, however.

Rand herself told me that she does NOT hate poor people. Although she did say they should be exterminated (which is what you do to parasites). Me, I say that's hate.
