“But yes, the law has its flaws, in its construction and its execution, but so far those flaws aren’t really hurting very many people.”

Thats news to these people.

I would suggest that any right-wing relatives tell anyone who lectures them about politics that because of Obama’s policies they can’t afford to give Christmas gifts this year.

First of all, this creep is assuming intelligent people will be willing to argue with idiots. Second, if the dinner is at a conservative’s house, this creep should be advising his friends to keep their oppinions to themselves less they end up eating at Walmart tonight.

Nice talk is for pussies!

I tend to agree...

Hey dale, put some Bull Snort hot sauce on their yams and watch um jump around like monkeys.

After dinner pretend you have a new motor, take um out to show um, then slam the hood on their head.

People Lie for their own good.

Liberals think Obama Lied for their own good, not his.
Obama is so wondrous, they just can’t fathom any ulterior motives.

They are eating up his “kindness” BS. To us, stealing one persons Property to reward another you deem worthy isn’t kindness or empathy, it is Theft.

Obama just said his decisions are based on Kindness. Hitler loved Aryan Children and Puppies. At one time he was as beloved as Obama if not more, no matter what pain and destruction he reigned on the world.

lamest args i have ever read.

wait till next year before saying the website killed obamacare.

the law is still in effect. people need to be covered to comply with the law.

these people’are’the same people that believe barrycades has the power to just change the law to whatever he wants.

if bush was doing this ask them if they’d be waiting. where was the quarter given for bush?

best thing is notto allow obama or’anyone else any power overyour thanksgiving at all. don’t discuss it period. the day will be better if everyone takes a break fromit and not let it ruin your day talking/thinking about it.

legally they are. if we’re going to have rulings that say they are, then they are. can’t’just say yes inone circumstance and no in another and be consistent.

As to the “aren’t hurting very many people” line, remember that the 0bamazombies made a huge deal about one woman, the wife of a former employee of a company Romney’s company took over, dying because of a supposed lack of health insurance. Yet Zerocare has already caused numerous cancer patients to lose coverage. They’ll most likely die and it’ll be a direct result of 0bama and the democrats forcing this fiasco on the country.

FUBO and STACA!

(STACA = Screw The Affordable Care Act)

That's what'll happen in my house, and not just for any family member who's on the left that starts .... my rules for this Thanksgiving are simple: The first person to start talking politics is out the door.

Left, Right, Centrist I don't care. Out the door they go. As much as I hate the idiot occupying the White House, today isn't about him. Period. (As much as the narcissistic prick would like today to be about him, it's not!)

OK, what’s with the `Orthodox Jewish’ couple & the Hannukah menorah and what does that have to do with debating liberals at the Thanksgiving dinner table?

MD 20/20 is not kosher for Passover, IIRC.

FWIW, “American Gothic” depicted father & daughter, not husband & wife.

Just askin’.

I’ve had a long standing rule that if the discussion is radically controversial and you can’t help but argue about it, wait until after dinner and you’ve gone home. Then send the hate email or have the angry phone calls. But not massive fights over my dinner table.

Nope! Taught us about American artists in middle school, part of history class. From Gilbert Stuart down to Andrew Wyeth.

So like, what’s with the Jewish bit & Turkey Day?

;^)
