I found another article that said the democrats in may states were afraid of being targeted by leftwing groups as being too conservative and by voting for the bill they could become targeted by the groups and the groups could support opposition in the primaries. Sound familiar?

From what I've heard, the reps have no reason to oppose the deal since they got almost everything they wanted. Neut will, of course, dispute that, but offer nothing to refute it.

Really? What did they get? List them all not just one or two things.

" Fox News First suspects that the trouble is on the left.

Since when is saying "suspects" a lie. It's a suspicion.

I'll tell you what a lie is, it's when you say "If you want to keep your insurance plan, you can keep your insurance plan.... period." That was a lie. Another is, "If you want to keep your doctor, you can keep your doctor.... period." That's another lie.

To say "I suspect something..." is not a lie. It's to declare a suspicion. That's using the English language.


But, if you want to use "liberal speak," then maybe it is a lie.
