Geez, my post my have had something to do with the firestorm too. Dang you Republicans sure are touchy!

Just one thing to clarify. I didn't say all Republicans are dumbasses. I just said that Obama and his administration screwed up BY NOT USING LITTLE WORDS TO GET THEIR POINT ACROSS. Obama shouldn't have used the big words of "Public Option". He should have used something alot smaller and alot more simpler. Something Like "Medicare for all" or "GrandMa's Plan" or "Unemployed Care". Just anything but "Public Option". Then Republicans would have understood it and liked it! And it would have passed a while ago!

I say that, because the only things Republicans hate about the bill are things that aren't even in the bill. "Death Panels", "Abortions", and "Illegal Immigrant Care". They scream those things out at these town halls everyday. And now Republicans are all stuck on this and they won't drop it. Even when there told time and time again that its not in the bill. They just won't drop it. And I put that on Obama. I don't blame Republicans. I understand they're people too. And they just need a guy that went to Harvard Law School to better understand them and Keep It Simple. Thats all I was trying to say. I wasn't exactly calling Republicans dumbasses. I probably shouldn't have used that word and I am sorry for the problems that it caused here.
