    You have fun with that. The only point where I shut out opposing viewpoints is when they become so insultingly idiotic that there's no discussion worth having (see also: the entire LGBT forum), and I don't see that from you. Oh well.

    How outrageously typical. Blinding defending the party line when the guy has just said it would be "reckless and irresponsible" to save a child's life instead of paying soldiers to kill innocent women and children.

    Any defense of such a statement, ANY defense is categorically perverse and sub human.

    Then man has no respect for the sanctity of human life and anyone who would defend that disgusting, evil, psychopathic thinking is the same.

    To invoke the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing tea party, [ffs when are you people going to get new material/] over the right to life is beneath contempt.

    Yes. Much like it's utterly perverse and subhuman to defend Boehner's statements about how baby is the best white meat, and that once you've tried it, you will never want to eat anything else.

    If this is the stand of the Obama administration and his followers they are nothing but hypocratic sadistic war mongers who are playing politics with people's lives.

    Its pretty clear Harry Reid will stop at nothing to further the Obama agenda without even considering any form of give and take. You support dictatorial rule then? You support death panels then do you? That's what he's talking about, that its "reckless and irresponsible" to pay to save the live of a child instead of paying for soldiers to kill.

    That's YOUR man. That's Obama! The individual means nothing and when compared to waging war it takes a HID SEAT to cancer treatment.

    There ain't no way on God's green earth any SPIN can change what he said. You can listen to that interview, not a press conference for another ten weeks and there is NO way you can get out from under the fact the Democrats would rather let a CHILD die than even think about a compromise..,...;..OUR WAY OR THE HIGHWAY.

    You may find something to respect there, but I think ANYONE who defends the bureaucratically decides death of a child is beneath contempt.

    I hope it ain't your kid, friend.

    But if it is, tell yourself those soldiers are still getting paid, still being sent out to drone attack mud huts.

    YEah that should be comfort to you when watching a child waste away from cancer in pain so terrible people have been known to gouge out their own eyes.

    That's your hero pal...that is what we now see as the "real" Obamacare.

    That you are unable to read (between the lines or otherwise), solidifies my point.

    Harry Reid did indeed use the words you claim, yet even YOU posted them in context which makes very clear the intent. You then take those few words and use them to generate emotions that would not be felt were the comments represented in full.

    We call this a troll.....as we do you.

    Harry Reid is a very evil man, which I've known for quite some time, but now he has revealed himself to the world and now everyone knows he's evil.

    Blah, blah, blah! Same crap different day. Harry said it, you can make excuses from now till the Republicans make him minority leader or retired in Jan 2015. You can't change what he said by a feeble attempt to rewrite the context of what he said. No matter what the context, the kids still are refused the treatment by Reid and the Democrats. Harry stepped on his privates.....get over it.

    AHAHAHAHA! What wonderful hyperbole!

    I particularly like this gem:


    Its pretty clear Harry Reid will stop at nothing to further the Obama agenda without even considering any form of give and take. You support dictatorial rule then? You support death panels then do you? That's what he's talking about, that its "reckless and irresponsible" to pay to save the live of a child instead of paying for soldiers to kill.

    We had give-and-take during the debate to pass the Affordable Care Act. That's why we don't have a single-payer system or universal healthcare.

    As for the "dictatorial rule." What a load of horse(*)(*)(*)(*).

    The ACA was passed by the House.
    The ACA was passed by the Senate
    The ACA was signed by the President.
    The ACA was upheld as Constitutional by a right leaning SCOTUS.

    Learn to live with it because it's going to be around for a while. I can't confidently say the same thing about the t-party.

    Well help me out ... if Obamacare is a death panel ... then why kill kids by shutting down the govt ... in other words, conservatives want to kill kids getting treatment by the govt. to kill kids getting treatment by the govt.

    Harry Reid has a face you'd just love to punch. Something tells me he'd crumble into dust

    Well, good news, it isn't. No more than Boehner holds a baby-eating stance. It's entirely reasonable to defend a person from a statement if they didn't make the statement.

    "Give and take"? Okay, let's get something straight here. In 2008, democrats were brought into both houses on a massive mandate, and Obamacare passed despite more filibusters than at any previous time. In 2012, the republicans ran a campaign based largely on "repeal obamacare" and lost. Obamacare was taken to court and was upheld. "Give and take"? No. What's going on here is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing hostage situation.

    No. You fail completely at reading comprehension. His point is, quite clearly, that compromise at this point is encouraging bad behavior, and that there's no reasonable justification for letting the republicans dictate which parts of the government do and do not get funded.

    The irony of this is apparently quite lost on you and Peabody. :( And this is depressing, because when the republicans hold the nation's credit rating hostage, again, in three or four weeks, you're not going to understand how it isn't a bipartisan effort then either. I don't care about government shutdown, as I live outside of the US. But if US T-Bills collapse as a reliable investment, then international financial markets may well be (*)(*)(*)(*)ed, and that damn well is going to effect me. And people like you make me really worry about that (*)(*)(*)(*), because you're never going to understand who is at fault or why, and why not doing things as they've been done for the past decades warrants an explanation.

    Please show me where the Republicans were allowed to contribute to that bill.

    Your word is not sufficient to convince anyone here...

    Nice deflection attempt though....when the point is considering the treatment of a cancer ridden child "reckless and irresponsible" instead of paying soldiers?

    We're talking about actual treatment delivery here, not the theory of a bill you and few other human beings have ever read and so far has failed every test, exceeded ever cost projections and one that creates virtual death panels in deciding who will get treated and who won't.

    Whether you agree with my interpretation of "dictatorial" is petty and cheap deflective debating and if its the best you can do, please stand down.
