    Once again, you prattle off a ton of speculation and didn't address most of what I said. Wow, so she already knew a month after this bill was signed that she had to get a job at a random business so she can help land that business a massive contract, which she gets no amount of, at least there is no evidence that she did. She does all this just so.....what? This all took place and the end result is? She's tied to a disaster of a website that isn't functioning properly, therefore making the entire business look inept, all the while giving it the worst PR it's had in it's history?

    Wouldn't it be in her best interest to make it succeed? Like I said, makes no sense.

    None of the quote you are talking about is speculation. It is all fact.

    Why don't you like facts?

    It wasn't intended to excuse. It was an attempt to be facetiously arrogant about the goings-on in Washington. But you can offer up any minute connection as a conspiracy, it's on you to provide proof of it.

    Things like Mitt Romney's son being part owner of voting machines used in the last election??? Or the final decision of Gore/Bush decided by a judge appointed in Florida by Bush's brother??? Those are things that should have legs besides your crack-pipe conspiracy.

    I agree with your stance on the SCOTUS regarding Citizen's United and disagree with your take on DOMA. If marriage is a religious institution and thereby defined and carried out ONLY by religious organizations under the auspices of GOD...Then how come ANY justice of the peace can marry people even an Atheistic or Agnostic one??? If separation of church&state are to be maintained then that shouldn't be possible. In reality the definition of marriage is defined by the state and NOT ones religious institutions. I for one like it that way. You can not legislate your religious beliefs!!! What's next outlawing working on Sunday and eating pork???

    They're complaining, not because it's Canadian but that A: The Administration clearly had bias in selecting them B: They had been shown to crucial failure in the past and C: There were other, American corporations who at least submitted a bid.

    Your claim is not only a stretch, it's not even a valid argument in my opinion. Try again.

    I didn't say it wasn't fact, but you're speculating as to what is tying them together. You're cherry picking certain events to imply that all of the actions fit together.

    What I did, is I added reason to the argument. Why would someone go through such a pre-planned, elaborate series of events, just to make themselves look like a complete moron because the website is such a nightmare?

    Wait, did you actually think I would've believed that my response to your post about being hypocritical, would be seen as valid to you?

    There were people complaining about the healthcare.org being contracted to a Canadian company and not an American one.

    So, I like to point out hypocrisy when I see it, that's all.
