Ya know the title of this thread is inflammatory in and of itself. It implies ALL Republicans believe in violence and are sore losers.

If the bill hadn't passed the Dems would be crying foul and being sore losers (I don't think there's have been violence but who knows given today's society).

People that use violence are using things like this as an excuse to do violent acts. There should be no "the Republicans are sore losers look at the violence". These people would have found another reason.

We are so divided, we are fed so much negativity and hatred on BOTH sides it's fucking ridiculous.

I know that people here are going to find fault and tell me how wrong I am with the next statement but ya know what..... I believe it is more true than anything that goes through the small minds of partisan people who are happy when things go their way and want to see failure when things don't go their way (and YES, I AM INCLUDED in that, hopefully, though I am changing and can recognize it before I allow the negativity to spew out.)

The statement I believe: The vast majority of US citizens (probably 85+%) want nothing more than to be able to own (rent) a place they can call home, have a decent standard of living and be able to have enough money to afford to live. The politicians and extreme partisans don't care about those people. All they care about is power and getting WHAT THEY WANT... not what is best for the country. Thus, they feed the division and negativity in this country. People are fed up, depressed and living in fear of losing everything they worked for and all our politicians and partisans care about is the power they wield.

And I think the biggest problem with the health care bill, isn't what is in it or what isn't but how it was PERCEIVED (which was shady) to be passed, the gloating and the fact that for the first time I can remember people truly spoke out and kept saying "NO" and their voices were ignored. The Dems. didn't EVEN try to explain what was being passed and allowed the people to believe the negativity (which in and of itself is negative and not a positive). So if you pass this bill and allow negativity to grow and add to it, of course anger and negativity will be the result. Then the GOP didn't OFFER anything except negativity. Thus adding more to the anger and negativity of the people.

People are losing good paying jobs, their homes, unable to barely eek out an existence and our leaders just keep piling on negativity. That is not the sign of people that want to better the country. That is poor leadership and a way to destroy a country and people. It starts at the top with Obama, it goes through ALL Congress and flows into our very homes.

This fucking negativity has to end and we need LEADERS that will bring true hope, true change and true belief back to this country. Unfortunately after all this, there is no doubt in my mind we have the wrong people (ON BOTH SIDES) to do this.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
