You think you're centrist, but keep in mind that to the nuthatches in the tea party you appear extreme left.
Anyone who does not agree with such people 100% is automatically left extremist to them. I consider myself a centrist because of my values and willingness to always listen to the other side. If I see new facts, I change my opinion.
This is not what makes you a centrist. If true, and I don't know if it is, then it makes you someone with an open mind. That's it. Your core positions and beliefs define where you stand. Additionally, you may be centrist on one particular issue, and then be left on another, and right on a third. It's issue specific, but in general it's the summation of where you stand, not whether you are open to debate.
Actually, I need to qualify this statement. I honestly don't know if you are or are not a moonbat, Ricter. The reason I don't is because I have no idea whether you accurately represent yourself on this forum or not. In your rush to defend every possible attack on "your team" as you call it, I think you may just be trolling, and inwardly agree with some of the points that are brought up. There are only two choices: 1. You are truly the most left wing moonbat this forum has ever witnessed 2. You lean left most of the time, and are taken to trolling the rest of the time.
Imagine if it doesn't. Not because I care about the GOP. They deserve to be thrown out on their collective asses. What about the country? This plan doesn't help the poor at all as they won't be able to afford the deductibles. It doesn't help the working or middle classes. They'll end up paying more for less. The truly wealthy don't give a shit. Those with absolutley nothing, and illegals will still get a free ride in the ER, just as always. So just who does this help?
The elected political whores who begged for it, and voted for it don't even know what's in it. What's red duke going to know? Lol!
So you're saying there are or maybe foiled attacks the alphabet agencies don't brag about in the media ? In addition to all the so called foiled attacks they do brag about.
