Share the incomprehensible Facebook postings of your "friends" regarding HCR/domestic terror here!
I posted this:

"Dem congressman receives threatening letter containing unidentified white powder. Is it terrorism YET?"

A response:

"Yes, and I'm sure it's representative of the millions who oppose the bloated, disgusting unconstitutional bill that was passed through parlimentarty trickery over the objection of 60% of the American people."

Umm...what?!?

3. Found on FB polls
The avatar is an image of president Obama crossed out that says "Repeal obamacare"


Why did we fight England in the Revolutionary war and have the Declaration of Independence if we were going to throw all of our gains out the window and become just like England and Canada. Wake up America and fight for Capitalism as our forefathers did.

6. one more, this is a good one
The problem in our country is to many factions that divide our nation and democracy is not being followed uder our constitution. It is the universities and institutions that have as well as the liberal media, that have and continue to destory our republican democracy. To bad that who ever shot at that congressman did not get a good hit.

7. Got this one in response to using the term "Teabaggers"
"I wonder if the people of 1774 called Paine, Adams' et al Teabaggers or were homosexual sex acts not discussed so openly, including on the floor of the House of Reps, back then...."

8. this crap is insane
It must be a full moon or something because I just had to defriend and report a cousin (admittedly not a close one). He posted a comment in response to something I had written that talked about killing both the HCR bill & President Obama!!!!!!! I immediately saved a screenshot, wrote him a message about how he should be absolutely ashamed and embarrassed of himself considering my father (his uncle) was a preacher and asked him when Jesus taught that killing was the answer, and then told him to reach out to me when he had gotten some help. I told him if he didn't take the post down immediately I would report him. When he didn't I did just that.

This bill has just pushed them over the deep end!

9. One thing I've noticed...
The Conservatives (actually mostly Libertarians) have no idea what is in the bill. One complained about how the public option would bankrupt the government. They all spout the exact same talking points, about how long it is, how it doesn't represent the will of the people, the need for tort reform and selling over state lines, Socialism, yadda yadda yadda. Once I show that I have some knowledge of what is actually in the bill, they just stop posting.

I also noticed that two of my friends took down Hammer and Sickle Obamacare icons after I made fun of people who don't know what Socialism is.

I will say this - my liberal friends have gotten a lot louder on FB this week and my conservative friends a lot quieter.

10. The opposite side of the coin - a great pro Healthcare response from a friend
I must have missed that lecture in business school where they explain how when an industry really wants a law to be passed, they spend $200 million to fight against it. Oh well, guess I didn't get my complete education. Well, got to go now, I have a lunch date with Hugo Chavez. Hugo, why do you always want to go to Havana Mania? I wish it was Tuesday, on Tuesdays they roast a whole pig.
