    Pheebs. I can't believe you are still banging your head against the wall in this thread.
    There have been others who after months of frustrations have just left the forums altogether. Don't let that happen with you Pheebs.

    Now, I hope NOT to start something here with this statement but...

    Pheebs, Kuzi is a nice guy, with lot's of cigar knowledge. However, he is also someone who refuses to be wrong, or to (as he see's it) lose an arguement or debate.

    Your valid points will be brushed aside, or ignored completely and new points which favor his views will be constantly inserted.

    I gave up trying to convince Kuzi (and Puro too) that thier views were not the only views out there, or even that thier views were NOT in step with millions of other Americans.

    There are people out there who would argue about something even after it has been totally proven to be wrong. (The Israeli's come to mind) Kuzi and Puro fall into this category. It is very hard to pin down a moving target. (IMO)

    I just don't want to see more GOOD members leave the forums over political debate that goes nowhere. I think after a while winning the debate becomes much more important to some people then the information being passed back and forth. Too bad, because with these types of blinders on, true debate only suffers.

    If you are only willing to grace the world with your knowledge, while refusing that others knowledge is as useful, and necessary as your own... then you are not debateing. You are just waiting for the other person to stop talking their trash so that you can get back to educating the masses.

    Let's get back to talking about cigars. Not one thing said in this forum is going to change a damned thing in the real world, unfortunatley.
    Laker, I will toast to every d@mn thing you just said. Pheebs and I both get emotional on issues (and I know you do do---including on my end, my little fit I had with you awhile back), and get ready to leave this place because of the closed mindedness, inability to admit flaws in opinions, and overinflated sense of self opinion around here....but on cigars we all can enjoy a good conversation and common ground and thats at least something. Thanks for the cool temper from one of the guys on here that doesnt always have one.
    Yup. sound advice.
    funny, when you have an opinion you are always right. when i have an opinion i am always wrong. you claim i wont ever change my opinion... yet i doubt you will either. you bush aside my links, refuse to look at them in many cases even though they are true, and have been vetted, but somehow I am the one that is wrong. and what about the opinions of millions of americans that arent on your side? that agree with me and puro? you just sweep them under the carpet too. you sir are a hypocrite as well. only 42% Support Health Care Reform After Release of Pelosi's Version

    but that statistic means nothing to you. im still wrong.

    I've posted a lot of links too, but never a mention of them. Polls, well here's a link http://abcnews.go.com/PollingUnit/Politics/story?id=8373563, sure polls fluxuate but why wouldn't they, people are getting tired of this debate on healthcare, it's been going on way too long and the lies being brought out about it are surely not helping. I think that support will gain momentum as these bills get passed. There is just too much debate over it. And a lot of independants and progressives aren't happy that the democrats have given up too much so some of the drop in support is due to that. I personally think this bill should be voted down, then the democrats should bring the case to the American people that the republicans have done everything they can to lie and stop any reform. Then come back with more real democrats who really want to make things work with a single payer bill or extend medicare. Though that won't happen.

    Don't forget about the love of the right wing and their uses of the holocaust and hitler when talking about giving people health care. Or the posters of the "teabaggers" with mounds of dead concentration victims... Makes me sick actually.

    i dont like to compare Obama to hitler. there are things that are a bit fascist in the Obama administration, but as far as i can tell, he is not looking to exterminate any race. he is not looking to take over north america by means of a large war. i dont like the comparison at all. I dont like obamas policy, but comparing him to hitler is a bit much.

    i honestly think that Obama thinks that government can fix everything and he is so passionate about it that he is willing to violate rights to get government to fix it all.

    I think this statement is very true ...I think he does passionatly believe that he's doing the right thing ...I don't think he has set out to destroy America although if enough of his proposals are passed the America we see now will be gone ...

    Well the House version of this unconstitutional bill passed, but I don't see it making it through the Senate. There are way too many moderate Democrats who have already said the House Bill is way too out there. Thats what you get for putting a bill out based on what Nance Pelosi wanted... She has to be the most far left fringe person in all of Congress. Some of the reform ideas in this package may fly, but the government run health plan will sink this Bill. Sen. Joe Lieberman, who the Democrats need to pass the Bill, said "If a government plan is part of the deal, as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote."

    I am glad to see that some members of Congress, regardless of party, know that this plan is wrong and violates the rights of the American people.

    I was listning to Sue Myrick (NC_09) on the way into work this morning ...you would not believe the crap thats in this thing ! According to her the Senate also said this thing will be dead when it arrives there. Even a provision about Bio fuel now that has alot to do with health care right? Also interesting she said a bill on defense spending also included a provision to raise the amount of monet the Govt could borrow I believe to between 12-14 Trillion dollars. She said they knew it was bad and not enough votes to keep it so they attached it to defense spending so anyone that voted against it could be accused of not supporting the troops !!! After listning to her I felt sicker about the country than I normally do.
