  1. Ok, but for the sake of this thread (and my question), it seems like focusing their energy on a topic that could affect 24 million people when about 180 million people get their healthcare through their employers...
  2. Dumbshittery
  3. Right. As I understand it, the issue the Dems are rallying around in this shutdown is the extension of ACA tax credits. This isn't about employer-provided insurance, it's about those who get their insurance via the ACA marketplace, which in 2025 is about 24 million people.
  4. He keeps using those words. I do not think they mean what he thinks they mean.
  5. Helobious Saturday night
  6. For real, what is the Dems obsession with the healthcare message? Is it because Obamacare is the only thing they have won on in like 20 years?
  7. Well, for shitbag Rs (an admittedly huge volume of people) yes. But for those that can be persuaded to vote D, I think @Vegas64 has it pretty dialed above. Attach Rs to continued high prices and not being able to keep the government open. Those can be mutually exclusive, but just tell people prices are going to go even higher because the government is shut down. It's not like you have to be able to prove that. Just say it.
  8. I never even got to go to Liberty Lunch. Dammit.
  9. This. The fact that the Dems think Joe Public that gets their health insurance from obamacare has any idea what that means shows how out of touch they are.
  10. This sweet girl is crossing the rainbow bridge today. She was technically my in-law’s dog, but we raised her as a puppy and she also spent the last two months of her life with us exclusively when the in-laws couldn’t really take care of her anymore. She was two months shy of her 14th bday, so she had a full life. One of the sweetest labs I’ve ever known. Love you Cray.
  11. This is a great distillation of the magats crying about cancel culture and free speech. This can be applied in so many instances.
  12. They can focus on policy on the back end, but in order to get in control (legally), they have to play the game as it exists now. And that is NOT talking about policy. That is dumbing it down to appeal to the most basic dumbass voter.
  13. I was coming to post something similar. I think the Dem strategy of using healthcare as their battle cry in this is falling on deaf ears. Maybe it's just me, but in my world, no one is walking around talking about healthcare. I don't think most people even understand what a shut down is or what the healthcare argument is about. If I were the Dems, I would be just hammering the fact that the Rs control the government entirely and they shut it down. Full stop. That's the argument. They are so inept that they can't keep the government they fully control open. Prices are still high. Don't vote for these dopes again. But nope, we are going to try and get into the weeds on a tax credit for healthcare that 95% of the nation doesn't even understand. Cool.
  14. Sun fart?
  15. As does NIL
  16. They can, but they don’t care.
  17. Uh what?
  18. Laughing and lying! Lying and laughing!
  19. Paste as plain text motherfucker, do you speak it?
