It's quite clear to those with brains that the health care system in
the US needs reform.

Should President Obama quit pushing for it in the face of poll numbers
that show the "will of the people", or should he do what he feels is
right and necessary for the long-term good of the country?

What would *you* do, 2pid?

Check on Sarah Palin's tweets.

I saw a poll today where 71% say they would NEVER vote for Sarah Palin
for president under ANY circumstances. How do you like them apples?
Polls tend to tell people what they want to hear. It's the complete
opposite of having critical thinking skills. It's very predictable
that you rely so heavily on them to make your points.

Wasn't it you who bemoaned those who lead by following polls?

Asked another way: do people who bend their positions to the polls
exhibit "leadership" in your view?

They know all of that?

I find that whopper hard to believe. This is the same public whose
stupidity you've wailed about for years. This is the same public that
threw out your beloved republicans.

This is the same public that you're a part of. You're not smart enough
to figure anything out. LoL.

That one has 2pid's little paws clacking on the linoleum in fear. He's
outside now. There's only so much peeing on the floor that one's
master can take.
