Penalty or tax either way it is unconstitutional to tell us we have to buy something.

And, neither the Tories, Lib Dems, "LABOUR", or Green Peace parties would or will EVER sanction "Sharia Law". That is utter nonsense. As for her Royal Majesty I'm afraid Prince Philip is already sucking on her tit--whats left of it anyway. A bit disrespectful innit mate? We Brits aren't telling Americans with dual citizenship to piss of back to the colonies. Not sure there is any point at arguing this bloody matter anymore as "you" conservatives won this battle. Sadly, the poor and ill lost. I'll give your kind regards to my skint Cancer patients on their third round of Chemo. Okay;-) Right, off for me tea.

Psst excuse me.... You realize you guys are showing your blindness right?

I don't know even one american that has no love for their fellow man. The right just has rational thought. Don't get me wrong, if Romney wins nothing will change for the good or otherwise but I'd rather have no change than a commie FORCING themselves down my throat. It's not right that a bill as huge as healthcare be divided by party and shoved down our throats. There is reform needed and I'm not completely opposed to a single payer system but not how it's currently written. Way to much debt added as well.

My mistake big tex I was referring to the mandate. I'm not closed minded to it like I was. I still can't support it as it stands currently but there is potential here if both parties can budge an inch or two.
