Lesson #2 - never issue Lesson #1 to a fellow descendant of Irish Republicans. ;-)

You know, I had very similar experiences trying to convince people that Obama's "keep your doctor" statement was not a lie. In terms of the ACA, he was correct and I challenge anybody to show me otherwise.

It's as if Obama said "bailing out General Motors will not mean the end of the Ford Mustang" and then Ford decides to can the Mustang so enraged people call Obama a liar. Not seeing it. And now a sense of deja vu. You and I clearly see Trump's words differently. I think I know why- there's some minutes of lead-up to Trump's words in which the expert himself uses the word "inject" and Trump clearly refers back to that, but that gets snipped in favor of anger and confirmation bias.

Whatever. I hope you guys can get back to being civil to each other, though the reaction to Trump's selection for SCOTUS makes that seem unlikely and it looks as if your candidates are going to go with some good old-fashioned anti-Catholic bigotry. That will be fun for you.
