re: Affordable Care Act. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Posted by RAB on 1/2/26 at 4:44 pm to
Obamacare isn’t Medicaid. It never was a handout created to give poor people health care. I’m self-employed and live a modest lifestyle. Obamacare co-opted my individual insurance plan and forced me to either break the law (and good sense) to go without health insurance, or to accept the snare of government subsidies.

Now there are millions of people like me who were forced onto Obamacare 15 years ago against our will, and we woke up yesterday to a huge increase in premiums.

The Democrats created this disaster, but the GOP will own the fallout of premiums skyrocketing. They are supposedly the party in power, and they have done nothing to avert this disaster.

He has the most talent he will ever have at Alabama right now.


He’s recruiting high level, and the players like him. His problem is a lack of physicality with the team. That’s why Bama couldn’t run the football all year. Yesterday was as ugly as it gets, as we got straight up bullied on both sides of the los. If this isn’t addressed in the offseason, he’s toast.
I’m also interested to see how viewership is impacted. I’ve been arguing for a while now that NIL/Portal madness is going to end up dismantling the historic bedrock of college football by neutralizing the blue bloods. What happens when the final four are a mish-mash of teams that haven’t built a large fan base of support?

The regular season numbers showed that the blue bloods still dominate the ratings. I guess we will find out this season about the final four.
NIL and the Portal are going to send the coaches into earlier and earlier retirement.

This is obviously the case. Very soft team.

Welcome to the new era of college football. They are draining the blue blood right out of the sport.

Georgia, you’re on the clock.

As far as the other non-sensical takes on the “Mormon Jesus” I’d say that most LDS folks know the Bible as well if not better than folks from any other religion. We use the King James Bible just as much as the Book of Mormon.


Spin it however you want, but one of the few things that Christians of all denominations and traditions can agree on is that Mormonism is heresy. But congrats on beating the Tech.

LSU fans are weird.


I think they have something like a 20% winning percentage against Alabama in Baton Rouge over the past 60 years. That kind of thing impacts oneself.
This guy is behaving exactly like Congress does with the debt ceiling, continuing resolutions, and government shutdowns. I’m guessing they get CNN in Ghana.

Two can play at that game…Alabama wins the natty in these years if…

2008: Florida doesn’t lose to Ole Miss and comes into the SECCG unmotivated.

2013: Just one field goal is made out of four misses in the Iron Bowl.

2014: Ezekiel Elliot is tackled at some point in the Sugar Bowl.

2016: Officials call that illegal pick against Clemson in the end zone.

2018: Tua doesn’t throw a pick six in the first quarter of the national championship.

2019: Joe Burrow stays at Ohio State.

2021: Ohio State makes a field goal as the new year begins.

2022: The official doesn’t throw a ridiculous flag for pass interference in the Tennessee game.

2023: Milroe doesn’t run right into the teeth of the Michigan defensive line in OT of the Rose Bowl.

A quick way to lose the respect of your kids is to behave around them with no self control, whether that be evident through alcohol use or anger or language or anything else.

Best season ever. No hardware. No trip to Atlanta. Not even a bowl game gift bag. Just sad.

Teams that get hot win tournaments. Scary thought, but it sure looks like we just saw Bama get hot.

LSU is spending $93M on Kiffin $53M on Kelly $90M on assistants $175 on NIL over the next 7 years. Nearly a half billion dollars ($411M) on college football. LSU’s endowment is only $664M.


That's not only an insane investment, but history has proven time and time again that it is a bad investment. Meanwhile, young people are still mortgaging their futures to attend universities like LSU.

This makes me sad. Historically bad rushing season while former backs are running wild at the next level.

Look, what LSU did in 2019 was amazing. Great team, no doubt. But 2020 Alabama beat the 11 best teams in the SEC. That will never be replicated, and it must be acknowledged as giving them the edge in determining this mythical ranking.

That was your first thought when you heard about Reiner's death? Not "that's a shame" or "i wonder what happened?" Your first thought is about Trump.


Yep, and then the president summarily proved I was right to think that way.
Did you honestly think Trump would not find a way to firmly insert himself in this story? When I first heard this news last night my first thought was, "Let's see how long it takes Trump to make this about himself." That's what he does, for better or for worse.

This press conference was ridiculous.
