The World’s Largest Coalition of Nontheists and Nontheist Communities!

OBAMA CARE...So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause.

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. This is a statement of our most basic individual rights. Over the centuries our human rights have been abused and eroded but always one could still say (...most of the time, in this country...) one could mind their own business and be left totally alone to live their life with no interference from anyone. But with this new health care bill, soon everyone will have to pay a fee to the government, or insurance company, for being alive.

...our last tiny bit of absolute liberty will be erased.

I can't tell which ones are the trolls and which ones are clever satire wrapped in irony. I understand the sentiment, however. At this rate, soon we'll have communist ideas like income taxes, sales taxes, schools supported by the government, maybe even a military. Then they'll require licensing for professions and maybe even ordinary people who just want to drive their cars. Damn!

O - and public options like the Post Office, State run Colleges and Universities. It's as if Family Values might involve a sense of responsibility to our fellow citizens like promoting the general welfare like in the preamble to that Communist Manifesto ... The Constitution of the United States of America.

My diet of troll-LOLz has been deficient as of late.

Interesting diet. =)

They so easily fall for the socialist lies, Ralph! They are babes in the woods. How quickly they forget! North Korea looks so dreamy!! Hugo Chavez is SUCH a nice man. Now we can fall into that quicksand too.

These folks will love the IRS, they are such nice people. And now they will monitor most of what you do. What a nice aspect of this bill that is. I was just saying how much I wish they could keep even closer tabs on me and now my wish has been granted by the foolish socialists!! Hooray for idiots like the ones who have led us down the road to communism. They no not what they do.

Paying fees to the government? That's a totally new thing that hasn't ever been done before!

You can really pick the knuckleheads. The more they crap on about "liberty" and "freedom" and "rights" and "socialism" the less of a concept they really have of any. If only the founding fathers could see the fruit of their labours - a mass of drooling Pavlovian imbecility digging bunkers and hoarding weapons "they" are coming to take away. Narcissism, paranoia and neo-McCarthyism is the order of the day. "The socialists are coming ! The socialists are coming !"

The sooner your dollar implodes and you Balkanise into fragments of squabbling hillbillies lynching each other the better. Then the rest of the planet can get on with some kind of progress.

Idiot.

"a mass of drooling Pavlovian imbecility digging bunkers and hoarding weapons". Man, I like that. Gotta memorize it.

"The sooner your dollar implodes and you Balkanise into fragments of squabbling hillbillies lynching each other the better"- hey, those hillbillies might lynch me too! I no like that.
