In Reply to: Yeah, and they never seem to try to refute Obama's - scary relationships, guess you cant argue truth.nm
people who want to believe in great conspiracies and will. They know there are informed voters who will dismiss scare tactics and innuendos and will. "They" don't even bother with the first group - lost cause.

This is the "they"
I read your response and thought to myself she (or he) must think I watch a lot of X Files. HA HA HA. Okay, when I wrote that this morning my DH came out and told me "They were threatened that there would be martial law if they didn't vote for the bill". So, I got on the Internet cos I wanted to know who is the "they" - Bush? Pelosi? Franks?, who? I thought who in their insane mind would could come out and tell people vote or else there will be marshall law. So, on C-span there is a video clip of Rep. Brad Sherman. (You can access the same video from the link provided above by sm). He's a California democrat. He said "Many of us were told in private conversations that if we voted against this bill on Monday that the sky would fall, the market would drop 2 or 3 thousand points the first day, a couple other thousand on the second day, and a few members were even told that there would be martial law in America if we voted no". He then said "That's what I call fear mongering". Now...I haven't been able to find out who exactly the "they" are (as in actual names), but this is what a democratic representative is saying.
Who is "they" you refer to?

Who are you referring to by "they" ?
I am also a Christian and don't condone any of it either and I think most people probably do not. "they" fear Muslims because all they know of Muslims is the small portion of them who are terrorists. They don't realize it is a peaceful religion. All of these things that were done in the name of religion over centuries were done by radicals one way or the other looking for an excuse. No one's God, not the God we Christians believe in, not the God Muslims believe in, condones killing and hatred. That is something we humans have done all by ourselves.
You talk about "Them" and "They"
You are the kind of person who is trying to divide this country with such unsubstantiated, ridiculously divisive statements.
Even your fellow Republicans are rallying behind PRESIDENT Obama.
I suggest you quit making ridiculous generalizations and start reading what YOUR president says instead of taking the word of lopsided, right-wing nut cases.
You do not make one credible statement in this entire diatribe. If you have so much "knowledge" of how he is screwing us over, please cite RELIABLE sources and facts.
Yeah...I thought his "they will call me if they need me"
comment really brought that point home. LOL.
[sigh...] I meant "they" went, not "then". nm

The reason "they" have their houses paid off - sm
is that they worked hard, were frugal, did not use credit cards unless they could pay the balance each month, did not buy a car for everyone in the family, did not have a TV in every room, did not have cell phones, their kids did not have all the latest "toys", and, yes, "they" are eligible for Medicare because they EARNED it. And they did all this on salaries that were just enough to get by on. How do I know this? My parents are a shining example.
I really agree with you, but since "they" have not extended the hadn across the aisle,......sm
so to speak, I felt that SOMEONE has to, we have to get this thinking ingrained and replacing this old, worn-out, stupid arcaic partison bullying and namecalling, and SOMEONE has to be the bigger person...why not an old Democrat like me??? :-) but I truly believe what I am saying also, friend!
