I don't want to use force against anyone else. You do, Jeff. There have been numerous surveys of small business people and the vast majority list the uncertainty of OmoronCare as a reason for not expanding/hiring. I'm pretty sure you're not in the private sector, so why should you care? You really need some new material. The Fox News crapola is SO tired. Jeez, talk about cheap talking points.

More poo poo from little Missy. It is the high cost of healthcare that has been a drag on the economy for decades. Where is you evidence that uncertainty about taxes relating to the Affordable Healthcare Act is damaging the economy? I daresay you must have picked it up on Fox News. We all know how reliable their "fair and balanced" reporting is! I'd say it is more likely that this grand declaration of yours originated from the nether regions of you backside. As far as blindly supporting the "imbecile in the White House," that is rich coming from somebody who constantly parrots right wing talking points and other far right hysteria and nonsense.

The uncertainty of this mega-tax increasing bill is what's keeping the economy from recovering. Isn't there like a 20-30% unemployment rate in the black community? Why would you continue to blindly support this imbecile in the White House?
