He didn't support the "Muslim brotherhood", supported regime change in Egypt which is a pretty standard policy for your establishment US president
Again you have failed to show any far left positions or any bit of evidence that the establishment is far left.

Heavily edited? The project veritas vids are not "heavily edited". It has people in candid conversations in full context. The accusations of them "heavily editing" video has been debunked.

Do what? Why in the world did Iran request funds in Swiss Francs and other hard currency?
Who do you think was the recipient of these funds? It made us the biggest defacto funder of proxy wars and terrorism in the world.

In case you forgot

Did you read the link? Of course he did and he also poured military equipment into Egypt after they came into power.
Do you think any poitician is "far left?" How bout Omar and Tlaib? Do you realize they're two of the biggest supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood in Congress? How bout ex congress men Keith Ellison? Is he "far left?"

I've repeatedly given you examples and you've chosen to be willfully ignorant.
Neither president Clinton or a president Biden would NEVER had made the Iran deal or openly supported the Muslim brotherhood so yes,both positions are "far left"

No it isn't, it's me pointing out Obama's foriegn policy was not all that different from other presidents. Supporting regime change, doing deals with countries like Iran and SA, fighting proxy wars, this is all pretty common of the establishment regardless of party. The "far left" do not support regime change wars, selling weapons to countries like SA, and fighting proxy wars.
quote:

In case you
I'm sorry how is Iran and SA fighting our problem? How does that justify a weapons deal to SA? You're just regurgitating establishment talking points.
Also talking about deflecting nice job on ignoring how SA is committing a genocide against the citizens of Yemen with US weapons

If you read the rest of point it's obvious you're being disingenuous. He supports regime change in Egypt which is no different from Bush or Trump supporting regime change in other countries

Supporting regime change isn't far left and neither is the Iran Deal.
Also Hillary supported the Iran Deal that Obama an establishment president created

I am not talking about UHC. HTDawg is singing the praises of Obamacare. I am going to prove otherwise.

I'm not signing the praises of anything you moron. I simply said it's not extreme. Extreme is what the Republicans tried to pull off. Suggesting that Obamacare destroyed an already broken arse healthcare system where people often die because they can't afford or get coverage is a riot. We're the only developed country where that happens. We're the only developed nation where people go bankrupts over a hospital bill.

This, this right here is what's extreme. 66% of our bankruptcies are due to medical expenses
LINK
quote:
A new study from academic researchers found that 66.5 percent of all bankruptcies were tied to medical issues —either because of high costs for care or time out of work. An estimated 530,000 families turn to bankruptcy each year because of medical issues and bills, the research found.
While in England the number is 5% and that was from a study done back in 2002

That's a completely dishonest presentation of a very shitty survey. It wasn't a study, it was a survey, let's be clear.
When you ask people why they failed financially, there will almost always be some kind of health excuse. "Well we got over-leveraged in consumer debt, then we got divorced and that threw everything into a tailspin, dependency and depression kicked in, problems at work led to me being let go, but I also have some medical bills so yea let's say I went bk from medical bills".
Fun fact- medical bills in the US can't destroy your credit and they can't seek liens on your property. The only time you can go bk from medical bills is if the collector actually sues you (they never do, it's not in the business model) and a judge hears the case and determines that you indeed have plenty of money but are too much of an a-hole to pay, then the judge will find against you, then the plaintiff files for liens, THEN you file for bk.
Eta this is why hc is so expensive here, half of people don't pay, so everyone else's price is double.

Reminds me of back in the subprime mortgage business.
We would do refi's for people who were only a few years out of BK when traditional mortgages required you to be 7 years out.
One of the conditions was a BK discharge letter as well as a general BK letter explaining the BK, this is for underwriting.
Every single one was "Everything was fine until momma come down with that Zika virus and started popping out encephalitis babies left and right, ran up 300k worth of medical bills and just couldn't fight it anymore" when in fact, looking further back into their credit file, they were dirt shite credit years before the BK, and you see the medical totals were never even pursued by the creditors, and never even paid by the BK, but completely written off by court order, and in fact came in after the BK was filed, in many cases.
Don't be so gullible. Yes I know that bad things happen to good people and no system is perfect, but don't believe that 66% of BK's are medical. It's horse shite.
