I think it will be easier if it is shot down. No, I probably WISH it would be easier if it were shot down.

sigh.

Obama has said stupid [expletive]. All the republicans have said stupid [expletive]. And in all honesty, is there really a person here that is fired up about going in and voting in November?

I think I'm going to vote for Johnson, and I'm not even fired up about that.

Yeah, I don't think so. Think about the talking points if it is shot down. 'See, he don't care about the constitution'. 'See, no budget but an unconstitutional law'. 'See, he is a Muslim'.

Not in the pro life, health care sort of way, but I certainly think it's a cause the left is behind. I don't know. I don't speak for the left but I think it should be and we should tax the hell of it.

Progressives tend to be against legislating morality and more for regulating and taxing such enterprises. Like marijuana.

Really? because I'm pretty sure it's not conservatives leading the legalize marijuana charge in this country.
