Barrett won't say if Medicare and Social Security are Constitutional

I am aware that Trump signed an executive order saying it would not be enforced, yet every year I do my taxes my tax preparer determines whether or not I will be taxed for not being insured for that year.

Why is that?

No "executive order";

"After broader attempts to repeal and replace the ACA stalled out in the summer of 2017, Congress reduced the individual mandate penalty to $0 effective in 2019 as part of tax reform legislation passed last December."

You might need a new tax preparer.

He continues to equate Republican with Libertarian. And there is a chasm between the two.

@vivify said
No, I don't.

You keep pretending you're not a Republican when you obviously are.

Being a Republican and being libertarian aren't mutually exclusive; Ron Paul, for example. But unlike Paul, your beliefs line up more with Fox News than with libertarian principles. Fox News rejected Ron Paul even though he consistently lead in polls; they'd welcome you with open arms.

And now we have Sen. John Kennedy quesrioning Amy Barrett:

Kennedy: "Are you are Racist?"
Barrett: "No"
Kennedy: "Are you sure you're not a racist?"

Hey SCREW you smellocrats. you SUCK.

They won't say they Aren't Marxists,, have you noticed? They want a nanny government, Pelosi said Wednesday that even though she is not accepting the trillions to hand out to the populace, not to worry, she will feed them. She will feed them. There is at LEAST one lib here who would consider such a life, might not be a bad idea. Govt care. Glad all this did not happen when Steve Jobs was in his garage, you would not have a computer to converse on.

Obamacare has an individual mandate. I have reason to oppose that. You should oppose the individual mandate since it is a republican idea.
What did she say when asked?

@vivify said
Yes. Why the hell would anyone oppose birth control? What reason would I have to oppose Obamacare?

@Metal-Brain
The bottom line is you are WAY ok with Trump ruining the bipartisan basis, you know, the part where SCOTUS is INDEPENDENT from the other branches of government?

So you are ok with Trump taking over not just the senate and WH but SCOTUS as well.

It shows where your heart is. And it is NOT in America.

@suzianne said
Again, a valid question for ALL Republicans.

@earl-of-trumps said
She adopted two African-Haitian children, and yet she is slurred with such a ludicrous question?

Face facts, you and dems are pure haters. What have YOU done for African children lately, Suzie?

@no1marauder said
Jesus Earl, the question was asked by a REPUBLICAN.

WTF, does it have to do with Democrats?

@earl-of-trumps said
Didi you hear what Suzie said??

She said ALL republicans should be asked if they are racists.
