ORIGINAL: truckinslave How did the land of Washington and Adams and Jefferson and Lincoln and Reagan sink to this? Well, conservatives in the nation went on a campaign of dumbing themselves down to total ignorance on anything of useful worth over two decades. During that time they handed over all control of 'thinking on tougher things' to a very small group of individuals who effectively became tyrants in their own regard. Those tyrants than convinced the conservative population thanks to a few right wing media hubs, that the nation's problems are solely due to Democrats. Even though when one studies the issues, finds its the Republicans and Tea Party that hold the lion's share of responsibility for those problems. If what I'm stating is untrue, truckinslave, than by all means, explain the ACA in full to me. Since it is your duty according to the founding fathers to know what your government is doing and not doing to bring liberty to the people of the nation. Oh, did no one in your right wing media hubs inform you of this concept? You are often slamming against the Affordable Care Act in total ignorance. Unlike you, I took some time to read all 2409 pages to understand the whole of the ACA back in 2010 when it came into law. So please present a credible reason why you failed to perform your task and duty as an American citizen. I would not be surprised in the least if Washington, Adams and Jefferson enjoyed sitting down with President Obama and chatting about many different subject matters. It would not be long before each of these individuals saw Republican/Tea Parties for what they are, and the depth of ignorance and foolishness that makes up their supporters. I'm going to spell it out for you, since I have no reason to believe your intelligent or honest enough to say it: You are a Tory! You would happily help the King of England without even realizing what your doing. Since that is what it would mean to be conservative. Where as to be liberal takes its origins from its root word: Liberalis. That is Latin for "being free" and "befitting the free". One of the silliest posts I have ever seen. Your "dumbing down" simply means you disagree with them. And I doubt that the founders would be real comfortable with a man who has proclaimed their greatest achievement to be "fundamentally flawed"
