Which they happily did with the additional assistance of social media.
Yea, them also. It's going to really cause the Left to have a meltdown when Trump returns to Twitter just to announce that he's running in 2024. ;)
 
Invoking charges of "left-wing extremism" against single payer healthcare is an uninformed and pathetic throwback to Bircherized red bait hysteria, and the United States is one of the last nations on the planet to still maintain
a healthcare system that exists solely to provide profit to shareholders instead of actually existing to provide an essential service to people.
Universal healthcare is left-wing extremism. While expensive, the US has the best healthcare system in the world.

The last thing you want is to get the same quality of care as our veterans.
Societies manage to figure out complex problems and address them, but there's always the one or two angry holdouts who cling to increasingly intellectually bankrupt reasons for not participating in the solutions.
We are one of the last angry holdouts and the main reason is because powerful special interests are still entitled to hold the public hostage to their greedy agendas.
Yes, societies can and do figure our complex problems and solve them but the government consistently demonstrates its ability to screw-up a wet dream. Our current economic concerns should be evidence enough of that.
Wendell Potter is a former CIGNA public relations executive.

“People just simply can’t imagine that anybody in any other country could do things better than we Americans can do it. And so you start with that mindset for a lot of folks.”
Those attitudes were shaped by Mr. Potter as vice president in communications of Cigna, which he joined in 1993. He rose through the ranks, spinning data that helped consolidate profits for his company. He says he would take “cherry picked” anecdotes from the industry group, America’s Health Insurance Plans, that he then turned into talking points that he made sure got into the hands of lobbyists, politicians, and journalists – creating a propaganda machine that he claims he believed at the time.

He used to say Canada’s health care was risky. Now he says it’s the future.

Let's hope not.



 
Why are only two choices allowed?

So in addition to my votes, what else is wrong with Joe? His politics are massively destructive, and history shows his wrongheaded policies don't work.
At the time it seemed like two would be enough, but I see your point.
 
Like his predecessor, he is too old for the job. He is still capable, but has obviously declined over the past decade. This is worrisome, as at the rate he is going, in another 15 to 20 years, he could be as dumb as Trump is.
Another pro-Biden comment from a pseudo moderate. Thanks for your participation.
 
I would agree that it is a left position. But extremism? Why not save that linguistic modifier for actual extremists? Like communists and anarchists?
Yes, extremism. Increasing government control over our lives must be avoided at all cost.
What would be an example to you of right wing extremism?
Murdering abortion providers.
 
Sounds like you want a dictatorship. Not surprising at all coming from a leftwinger. It's what rightwingers have always know about them.
Just say I'm tired of minority rule. Presidents elected by a minority of what in this country is called the popular vote. While in countries inspired by American democracy, it is caled The Vote, as they didn't include the Electoral College. Then Supreme Court Justices, appointed by popular vote Losers, then the filibuster killing legislation without getting a vote.
I majority in the Senate, House & Oval does not automatically make a Dictatorship. If they were arrived at in a fair & free election. Nor is it a one party system as long as all Americans of voting age are encouraged to vote & that process is as easy as it could possibly be. The opposition has the option of finding policies that would get them votes.
 
Single payer health care is not left-wing extremism. Saying that it is, however, is right wing extremism.
Single payer is, in-fact, left-wing extremism. The government has no right to control my personal healthcare.
 
Especially a dumb right wing video. They're so intellectually stimulating. Please stop! My brain can't stand this much brilliance this fast!
That's the beauty of video. No matter how much you try to spin it, you can never bullshit your way out of the truth. Video never lies. I want you to remember that. ;)
 
He has a stutter, but he manages.
A stutter makes him walk around aimlessly and forget where he is and what he is doing and everybody's name? He is senile and his wife and agents in easter bunny costumes have to be at his elbow telling him where to walk and what to do.
 
Why do you want more progressives in your place of residence. I thought you believed they were devil's spawn?
Why haven't you disclosed your political leaning?
 
He has a stutter, but he manages.
He doesn't have a ****ing stutter. I've been watching and listening to the guy since the early 1980s. He has not stuttered in the last 40 years at least, and I've seen older videos of him talking and he never stuttered, as far as I've seen. This "he has a stutter" bullshit is ridiculous.

Anyone who defends Biden with the bs about it being his stuttering problem are being intellectually dishonest.
 
If Trump were in there, there wouldn't have been an invasion. Putin just needed to wait until he got another liberal wimp in the WH.
Trump would have just cut a deal with Russia which addressed Russia's security concerns, mainly by assuring Russia that Ukraine would not be made part of NATO, and a few other things. Then the millions of Ukrainians whose lives have been wrecked, the cities which have been flattened, and that 10s of thousands who are dead now, would still be alive. But, the West wants this war to continue. NATO will not allow peace negotiations now. Ukraine has to keep fighting. https://peoplesdispatch.org/2022/05...s-governments-are-primary-obstacles-to-peace/

The Ukrainians are being used as cannon fodder.
 
Trump created chaos. He maddened us all until we were nothing bu a bunch of snarling rabid dogs. Biden's been a decent human being. He has helped us to feel like we could accomplish something sensible. If he did nothing more than that he has accomplished a great deal.
That's because those of your ilk are emotion-driven, and you couldn't get past the surface issues with Trump. You couldn't think objectively.

And, for all the left wing grousing and complaining for decades about how the establishment was just one big party, and we needed someone from the outside to come in who wasn't bought and paid for by the military industrial complex.... y'all ate the first one to come along for breakfast, and now you're side is making sure that we'll never get another outsider.
 
I used to wish for more right wing YouTube videos. Now that Biden is president, my wish came true. Oh goody!
I'm glad you wish for more videos, devildavid, because I wish you to see more videos too. I look forward to sharing content with you. ;)

One of the reasons why I voted for him. I think, however, he underestimated the size of the swamp.
 
I guess that's a no, he hasn't taken the test. Even if he did he wouldn't release it.
I've taken the test, twice. It's part of my Insurance Companies Wellness program, were a Nurse comes to my house once a year & does a half assed of physical.
 
Yea, but this time he was running against Trump and there was that crisis known as the covid pandemic working towards an advantage. All he had to do is hide out in his basement and let the MSM campaign for him.
Citation needed.
 
Right wingers don't use words. Words are hard. Videos are easy. More videos!
Left wingers use too many words. They convolute the message; make it hazy with a total bullshit feel.

Videos blow out the haze and cut through the bullshit. Videos are the perfect response to leftists.
