Wait..I'm confused.  You were banned from Sean Hannity's forum?

Oh, Plugger - once Sean Hannity doesn't want to hear from you anymore, it must be a daily struggle to find the will to live.

This should teach you to keep your annoying "facts" and "personal experience" to yourself. Sorry you had to learn the hard way.

We still love you, though!  :2thumbsup;

I knew I would feel the love here!  I'll get over Sean Hannity's ban someday, someday   :'(  You would have thought "Proud member of the Taliban since 2000" was in my signature!  Funny, because in the past I've posted things I thought were a lot more annoying there.

Anyway if you want to tick Fox News off, I would go read those Propublica stories!  (I smell fear!  Fox News!)

I've written to Sean too trying to tell him we DO NOT have the best health care in the world, but he didn't write back.

I'm a republican on in-center?  Not that there's anything wrong with that.....

Rerun,

A republican in-center?  It's confusing!  - but I guess we can let it slide.  I suppose even republicans can admit they need a little help now and then - and democrats can pick themselves up by the bootstraps.  As for Sean Hannity not writing back, I'm sure health care is just great for him!

Bruno,

Sean Hannity is a Fox News commentator who has other people running his internet forum for him.  I somehow crossed a moderator there who - it looks like - can't handle the truth when it is well-put-together and thought-out: http://www.propublica.org/topic/diagnosing-dialysis

As I stated, things can be confusing.  Another thing that confuses me is why Sarah Palin gets more press than Republicans I consider true fiscal conservatives:

"Republicans for Single-Payer

Support for single-payer health care is not just strong among progressives. George Swan, for instance, is a health care administrator, self-described “Purple Republican,” and a founder of Republicans for Single Payer.

“It’s about being American and doing what’s right,” Swan says. “What’s right is not paying a 30 percent premium to the insurance system and receiving sub-standard health care.”"

I noticed George Swan's website is down - let's start a conspiracy theory!

IF there was banning, I would start with Irish troublemakers!   :boxing; Darth, I saw your news picture - too bad they didn't show the fellow under your wheels.

I'm glad there isn't banning here; I always knew this was an internet land of peace, love, and understanding.

I'm not usually one for blatant name-calling, but Sean Hannity is a moron.  When President Obama made his first speech pitching his proposed tax bill negotiated with the GOP leadership, the left-leaning politicos were outraged and nearly stroking out.  Keith Olberman was almost DOA.  So out of curiosity, I glanced at Fox News to get a Republican view of the proposal, and I happened to tune in to Sean Hannity.  He was ranting and raving, too, but not about the policy, rather, about Obama's "hostage" analogy as if that was the only important thing to discuss.

And just because I am in an ornery mood, I will drag out my soapbox and say that Sarah Palin is the most dangerous political voice out there.  Listen to her very carefully, and you will notice that the crux of every single argument she presents is couched in terms of "us versus them."  At every rally, in every speech, she uses the most divisive rhetoric.  Remember in the very beginning when she was babbling on about "small town values"?  How many Americans live in small towns as opposed to living in urban centers?  It was "small town values" (ie, "us") versus "urban depravity (ie, "them", especially non-white "them).   God only knows what would happen if she or a family member became so wretchedly needy as to need dialysis.
