Please show me the nefarious motivations for every response in this thread, then prove to me that Dems don't have nefarious motivations for every single policy they support. I want you to be as critical of dem policy as you are about the experimental drug policy - that is to say, ignore the obvious good it does and look for a way that it could be maliciously interpreted.
After all, I'm sure my aunt Michael didn't actually want to get into the drug experiment that my mom drove her across the country to attempt to join. She should have had the decency to accept dying of cancer a few months later so that pharmaceuticals couldn't take advantage of other people with 3 months to live. I'm sure you'd feel the same way if you had terminal cancer.
You know using absolute terms as frequently as you do is a sign of early onset dementia?
People in that thread have already ripped that post apart.
You pick one policy, don't hand me a list of 50 and then tell me to prove a negative, you donkey.
Well, you picked one and I picked one. You chose the "right to try", ignored all the positives, focused on some possible negative, then implied that every Repub that voted for it did so only in order to further their evil plans.
Then I chose the expansion of Medicare in 2006, and got crickets.
You ignored all of that and focused in on a reddit thread showing the exact type of extremist responses that you're exhibiting here. And called me a donkey. Guess you're having a bad day. Hope it gets better, sweetheart. High school is tough
You realize I'm not the person you were originally arguing back and forth with right?
By the way, I just replied to your Medicare post a few minutes ago. Thank you for picking one, as my initial post challenged.
Ps. It was between donkey and twat waffle.
Uhhh what? Did you forget what you wrote? Every part of my prior comment is directly referencing a part of yours. Are you having a stroke or something?
