It seems that we just
"connect the dots" quite differently from each other, and based on differing levels of facts versus assumption. Even looking at your latest links, it appears that we reach very different conclusions about the very same texts. The first one about Lamar Smith wraps up with statements like
"I urge all of you to protest at the top of your lungs at all Town Hall meetings of your Members of Congress this month", which I've personally found to be a deplorable, counter-productive tactic. This isn't a debate that's best serviced by who can screech out the loudest - it requires rational, informed discussion. And frankly, the things that have been said by the loudest people have tended to be the dumbest, most ignorant stuff I've heard.
Another of his final statements is
"If you have Republican Members, protest the fact that the Republican leadership in Congress is taking a pass on this issue. Lamar Smith is high-ranking. But the half-dozen highest ranking Republicans are standing mostly mute. They are not making the inclusion of illegal aliens a big issue. What is wrong with them? Which big-money special interest is keeping them quiet." I've personally found that if this kind of
"standing mostly mute" is happening in cases like this, it's usually because the theories in question have no real merit, so they don't justify the time and energy that conspiracy theorists are demanding they get.
And then you cite Obama saying
"We don't want a situation in which some child, even if they're an illegal immigrant, shows up in an emergency room with tuberculosis and nobody is giving them treatment, and then they're going back to the playground and playing next to our kids." Can't say I disagree with him. I also can't say that this qualifies as proof of your accusation that Obama is
"legally opening up all of our medical resources to what essentially amounts to the entire country of Mexico".
And then of course there's this -
"seven falsehoods about healthcare". Check the last point in particular.
I'm sure you see all of this very differently from me though, and that's your prerogative. So I guess just take it all for whatever it's worth to you.
