A deep cover liberal is a liberal who joins conservative groups and then publicly says stuff so incredibly stupid, ignorant and nonsensical that it discredits the entire movement. For example how the location of birth of a man who is not you but who shares marginally more dna with you than a complete stranger is a connection with a world religion.

Ask for a refund. Also there are 20,000,000 practicing Christians in Indonesia. That's more than there are in England.

Being raised in a Muslim neighborhood for your childhood is a connection with that religion.

So do you by that logic. You live on a world with Muslims and apparently anything goes.

Where are you getting this mad delusion. I said he grew up in a muslim ghetto which is apparently equal to the entire world to you. I grew up in a middle class white area, that means I have a christian connection.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) repeated the same line Monday evening to a handful of reporter questions about whether he'd make any procedural moves to block a pending bipartisan Senate deal to re-open the government and raise the debt limit.
"I want to wait and see what the details are," Cruz said. He's expected to get them at a Tuesday Senate Republican caucus meeting, scheduled for 11 a.m. ET.

Alongside and after where I said he grew up yes. Is this factually incorrect or is there some problem now with stating facts to support points given in a post? Do you have a problem with the point I presented and have something to support your argument?
And so we're clear the argument is that there is enough information to draw improper conclusions without all the information.

Isn't this irrelevant to the point? We pointed out tea partiers are racist and sermokala says:

Romneycare was largely responsible for bringing down the cost and slowing down the cost of healthcare. The cost is still increasing, but no one who looks at Massachusetts' situation would blame their high premiums on Romneycare. That would be silly. And no one is considering throwing Romneycare out. If anything they just want to tweak it more to bring down costs. But it's been a massive success.

I don't think there's any evidence in MA that that's even a remote possibility.
Obamacare is basically a form of the Swiss version of healthcare. Switzerland has one of the most expensive healthcare costs in Europe (second to Norway), but it is still way way lower than America's. It does have the possibility that it will put us inline with the rest of world. We may still be the most expensive, but hopefully not such a stupid outlier.

Wow, Sermokala. I used to think you were conservative, but that was so on-point I think you must be a deep-cover liberal. Not being a raving lunatic with reasonable points has that effect. I'm a pragmatic person with unreasonable points. A deep cover liberal is a liberal who joins conservative groups and then publicly says stuff so incredibly stupid, ignorant and nonsensical that it discredits the entire movement. For example how the location of birth of a man who is not you but who shares marginally more dna with you than a complete stranger is a connection with a world religion. Being raised in a Muslim neighborhood for your childhood is a connection with that religion. not by fault you can't read past what you want to see.

Is this factually incorrect or is there some problem now with stating facts to support points given in a post? Do you have a problem with the point I presented and have something to support your argument?

What's that even supposed to mean? Is this some semi-elaborate troll? Colbert is that you?
What I don't get is that after all this time, the foreign policies, the killing of Bin Laden... it's now his 2nd term for Christ's sake - somehow this still is being discussed. If he overthrows the government and constitution and makes himself Caliphe-4-life people might be on to something.
//edit: so we are clear - a socialist utopian caliphate. I won't settle for less.

It means that if you ignore simple things like his community activism years in chicago, his 7 years of college or so to get his law degree his governmental service, his birth certificate, and all of his recorded life then you can get enough information to rabble rouse stupid people into believing that somehow hes a islamic socialist person that is totaly going to steal your guns so you should buy ammo from your local sporting goods stores.

No he is defending Obama on this - I think. What's funny however is that somehow he has very peculiar way of articulating it.
