Why are Democrats Anti-Tire?

[StanH]

Yes, of course I'm being silly here. But there seems to be a trend where liberals "think" (and yes, I use the term very loosely) that if a person is against government funding widgets, it means that person is against widgets.

Democrats refuse to fund my tires. They're against tires.
Democrats refuse to fund my gas bill. They're against gas.
Democrats refuse to fund my groceries. They're anti-groceries.

Get it yet, liberals?

Oh well, I guess I'll have to keep driving my car on bare metal rims since government is against tires.

Don't forget to roll down your windows. Breathing too much of that gas can't be good for you.

I don't have any windows. Democrats are anti-window too.

 

[NightSwimmer]

Phew!!!

 

[StanH]

Phew!!!

May I make a suggestion for you?

 

[NightSwimmer]

Does Medicare Part D cover that?

Ask big government liberal George W. Bush.

Who'd you vote for in 2000 and 2004, Stan?


Also....how'd the 737 check-out go?

 

[StanH]

I voted for the lesser of two evils, as always.

Won't be doing the 737 sim till late April, but starting on systems knowledge now. It's about $10,000 out-of-pocket, but worth what it does for my resume. By the way, Democrats won't fund it. I guess that makes Democrats anti-737 too.

Is it a class or just some home-study course your have to buy?


BTW, the idea is that the objection to the insurance benefit is JUST about contraception....no Repub raises a stink about Viagra being covered, do they?

 

[StanH]

The cost includes the home study material for the systems. It'll take me a few months of studying in my spare time to be ready. Then I go to a one-day systems summary, followed by 6 sim sessions then a check ride.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm generally against forcing people to do things that aren't pretty necessary to do. Contraception is a responsibility for the individual and as such, coverage should not be mandated. This strikes at the very core of why I'm against Obamacare. It changes coverage and forces people to do things. Another example I don't like- the lifetime limit being removed. I'd prefer to buy a policy that has a lifetime limit. My wife and I both agree we'd rather die than undergo treatments that cost millions of dollars.
