The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican.
"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."
The man smiled and responded, "You must be an Obama-Democrat."
"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"
"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are -- or where you are going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault."
Thumbs up 70, good one!
Just heard obummer say he only learned about that Gruber fellow by seeing it on the news. How many times will he use that lame excuse?
There are records of Gruber going to the Oval Office on several occasions. Wonder who he met with, if not obummer.
Someone should start a thread called "Why Must <Some People> Call Names?" I feel like I'm reading adolescents' posts, with some frequently citing "democraps," "libtards," "obummer," ...
We call out liars!!!!!! If Obamma's and Pelosi's nose grew every time they told a lie....like Pinocheo....their noses would be dragging 10 feet behind their asses!!!!!!Quote:

This has become petty. Calling someone a name rather it is dumbed down for stupid Americans or highbrow for the elitist overlords is just something that has been done, is done, and will continue to always be done. It does not make it childish. It is annoying most of the time, though. But sometimes it is required. When dealing with Obama & Co, it is absolutely warranted. It doesn't diminish any argument. Calling name-calling out does diminish the argument. If someone takes offense to the words, they are to defend themselves with more words, not cower in a corner and cry for someone to make the mean man/woman stop.Quote:

You're not seeing the argument as cogent if some namecalling turns it obtuse. Coarse and uncivil only if taken to far (think N).Quote:

Ed agreed with some of Dana's points and Dana agreed with some of Ed's points and they ended up agreeing that it needs to change because it's not perfect. Ed even agreed that it was Socialism. Neither were shouting, no attack panel, just an adult conversation between the 2 different views on Obamacare. We could get a lot more done in this country if we would have more adult conversations and quit attacking each other personally, imo.
This is Dana's conversation with Ed if you're interested: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014...it-turned-out/
Straight from FOX. And on and on and on.....

AMERICA'S FORMER CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER, Todd Park, insists he knew nothing about ObamaCare website problems prior to launch, telling House Republicans investigating the botched operation that it wasn't his job to know project details and that he was ignorant of repeated warnings — including one from an underling claiming a tyrannical government official was forcing the launch, despite problems.
I bet the underling was let go due to an unbelievably convenient act of misconduct.
