...but Christians don't mind when they force other people onto THEIR beliefs. (abortion/gay marriage)
Funny how that works.
IT"S OK IF I VIOLATE YOUR RIGHTS DUE TO MY RELIGION BUT YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO DO THE SAME!!! (condescending tone intended)
Last I checked there was no right to abortion or gay marriage in the Constitution or Bill of Rights. Also, while most Christians are opposed to gay marriage, I haven't seen any calls from organized religion for fines on any gay rights organizations.
As far as abortion goes most Christians view abortion as taking a human life....I guess unborn children have no right to LIFE, Liberty, or the Pursuit of Happiness. Wanting to stop or limit the killing of innocent life and lobbying the government to restrict these procedures is vastly different from a government forcing religious organizations to provide contraception, sterilization and abortion drugs or being fined out of existence.
I know your views will never change, because in your mind you're always right/ But for others who have interest here's where the Catholic Church stands on the issue.

Good luck to Obama and the left, pissing off 60M+ Americans who are normally split close down the middle D/R.

For the record, I'm against Obama.
I posted a link in the Presidential thread that can give you many reasons to hate his Presidency, which I have. His health care is actually one of the positives. It's not perfect, but it's better than what any other president or congressman has done.

Links? Cliff notes?
well one passed lil Bush where he litterally let lobbies write up the perscription bill plane, which has exceeded cost, think that was 2003.
Nothing else substantial or serious other than cutting medicare and medicade, which cutting is not a plan.
Avg industrial nation spends bout 11-12% on health care (a staggering amount imo). We have had no plan approach and our costs are approaching 18%. That cost will only rise but our country has a massive and I mean MASSIVE all caps massive (the most serious) baby boomer generation retiring, those costs will only increase.

Agree 100% on bolded point, and lil Bush should've never pushed the prescription drug plan.

In case you missed it one more time. Far and away better than most states it seems, but you GOPers like to try and use numbers to skew things.

Nice try. (not really)
Most of Romney Care did not kick in until 2009.
Bad Try. (really bad)

It's an endless game where they give all the blame and none of the glory and vice versa.
They have rallied behind Romney now, his shamefulness is invisible to them and they are in man on a mission mode. It's quite comical and sad to see them try to make him look pretty for the November dance.

I'm by no means over-confident. But as of today, I don't see Romney's path to victory and neither does his campaign.
What's the bet anyway?

Here is 2010 data, and I imagine it'll be the same for 2011. I can do this all day long.
Nice try again. (no seriously not really)
How about you provide proof instead of me doing all your work for you. You want to paint that Mass is paying the highest rates, but fail to see they have the highest income AND that they actually pay less than most states as a percentage of income.
