So in other words, you did not pay attention enough to see what I was actually saying and therefore decide to make up what you think I was saying. Which was pretty much the opposite.

That must be why you so dearly embraced Cain and his 999 plan, eh? Even though what it really meant was a tax hike on yourself. Nothing misleading going on there.

On the evidence of his posts, I'm not sure he can read, period.
All you guys bitching about Fluke being a media whore are forgetting one important fact: if y'alls committee had simply let her testify as the one Democratic witness in the all-male, all-Republican birth control panel, she would have remained an afterthought in political history. The attempt to silence her testimony gave her a platform. Ironic, isn't it.

You mean like when Rush Limbaugh tried to convince us that he and other taxpayers were being asked to pay for Sandra Fluke's birth control, instead of her insurance company?

All this manufactured outrage is being brought to you by:
THE IDIOTS WHO CAN'T EVEN FIND ONE DECENT CANDIDATE LET ALONE 4 TO DEBATE AGAINST EACH OTHER.
Back to your regularly scheduled RWCJ.

What do you mean 'tried' to convince us? There are plenty of suckers here saying they think it's crap that they have to pay for Sandra's orgasms.
Or that the taxpayer is subsidizing her prostitution business.

This is what they said they were going to do 6 months ago and they're right on target. They have to do everything they can to distract the US voting population away from the economy, debt, healthcare and foreign affairs. The Democrats have shown poor leadership and judgement over the past 3+ years on almost every topic of importance and look at where we stand now...
The media is full of articles and discussion about Ms. Fluke and a hundred other unimportant topics like her.
If you nation of voters can't see the difference, we don't deserve good leadership.

Are you saying that the same people who got their asses handed to them in the 2010 election have suddenly transformed into political ninjas playing three dimensional Machavelli chess?
Because yeah, that's plausible.

The GOPs insistence on making this an issue, insistence on holding theatrical congressional votes, insistence on official hearings, insistence on going on TV as much as possible to talk about this issue clearly meant that they do not want to talk about it.
Rush's comments that set off a firestorm? Who's to blame for that?
The reality is if Republicans didn't hit their moral panic button nobody would have heard Mrs Fluke's testimony. She'd have been forgotten in a day. But instead some folks on the right made sure her testimony was epic-level news.
Blaming the Democrats for right wing moral outrage is absurd. Republicans misread the public BAD on this one. Early on they thought they'd have a winner of an issue and by the time they found out Americans don't agree with them is was too late. This is a self-inflicted wound.

Even if the Democrats did find a way to "force" Republicans to talk about what they really believe (and force Issa to have hearings on it), why are Republicans saying this is a bad thing? Why do they want to hide their true beliefs from their constituents?

And if it's a bad thing, why are they playing along? Are they idiots?Even if the Democrats did find a way to "force" Republicans to talk about what they really believe (and force Issa to have hearings on it), why are Republicans saying this is a bad thing?

Don't answer that.
