I’ve been listening for years about how great Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Andy Dalton, Matt Ryan, Rivers Phillips, etc. are the second coming of Christ. Believe it or not Tim Tebow was in those discussions as well.

I am here to say proudly that none of them can hold a candle to Cam’s ass. The dude is a monster. He has no talented receivers yet he has led this team to 8-0.

I love that the media has egg on their face for ignoring Cam’s talents.

I would call them racist but why be redundant.

We should force GOP Congressional candidates to endorse the Trump plan

There are some Very good ideas in the Trump tax plan.

Our candidates should embrace it for the most part and force the GOP candidates to declare one way or the other.

diary about the latest CNN poll? I thought poll diaries immediately went to the top of the Rec list. Maybe that's only true if the poll can somehow be spun as a positive for Bernie.

Guess what, this one can't.

Folks we need to get a grip. Please explain to me how we are helping the fleeing people from Syria and Iraq by only offering refuge.

At what point do we take affirmative action to make their homeland livable?

I have seen many comments suggesting that we should welcome the refugees here. I think that is admirable and agree. What I want to know is how do we stop the problem.

Do you have a suggestion to curb the situation.

First, thank you to Kos for accepting my apologies. And I never received an email letting me know that. If there are other requirements for regaining posting privileges please let me know.

I haven't been able to post but I have been reading. From what I have seen Bernie supporters are willful in deriding Hillary while Hillary supporters generally look on Bernie favorably.

I guess this could be expected given that Bernie has an infinitesimal chance of beating Hillary.

What I don't care for are the seemingly endless diaries trashing another Democrat. Let's face it, we're not talking about a Joe Lieberman or a Mark Warner here. I have seen eye to eye with most of these posters as a general rule and folks should face it, she will most likely be your nominee.

I went through the 2008 primaries with most of you and though I originally supported Hillary, I happily supported Barack once it was clear he would be the nominee.

I hope you are in a similar place.

I've been a longtime supporter of you. I backed you in 2008 and have been getting excited about backing you in 2016.

Though you are considered the frontrunner here on Dkos, many have strong feelings against your candidacy. Most oppose you simply because of Bill's views and the rest oppose you because they supported Obama and can't accept a win.

I have always felt that you were your own person and quite frankly a benefit toward Bill's popularity. But I must question something I read the other day where Bill is exhorting the return of the New Dems in a soon to be published book.

If this is being floated as a trial balloon for how you might position yourself in a run for President let me assure you it's a stone cold loser. In fact, if you don't distance yourself from the ridiculous notion that America wants "pragmatic" or "moderate' Dems then count me out as a supporter. We wanted change in 2008 and thought we voted for it only to get a "pragmatic" and "moderate" Dem. Enough.

I've always believed you to be a true progressive. It's fairly easy to see given the healthcare policies you tried to implement. Don't let me down. I've had enough of that for the past 5 years.

I'm a big fan of Bill Clinton which kind of puts me on the outs with most on this site.

The reason I'm such a fan of him is that given the time we could not have done better. It's the same reason that I'm not such a fan of Obama. Given the time we should have gotten much more.

As far as being Democratic the biggest motivator for me was the understanding that while the GOP was always looking out for the rich guy the Dems were looking out for the working man.

I still believe that though this administration has blown the golden opportunity to convince the public of the same. Instead, they have developed and proposed policies that enrich the fat cats. All in the name of appearing bipartisany.

I will always be a Dem and will fight to get them voted into office even though in many cases they disappoint me.

I still can't get over this win. It was a Big F***ing Deal.

I've been around for a long time and have never witnessed a political beating as bad as we just handed the GOP. And to think, it was masterminded by Democrats!?!?

I felt sure that the GOP was on their last legs after Obama won the Presidency in 2008. Then the President decided to play nice and make the irrelevant looney toons appear as equal partners. It was a big mistake. And I was angry with him for it. I truly felt that they were on their last legs and he threw them a life preserver.

Unexpected by me, the President learned from that fiasco. While I expected him to remain true to form he decided that he would no longer bargain with the terrorists.

My hope going forward is that he also learned lessons about offering up the safety net to get a deal with these morons. I haven't gotten a sense yet that he'll fight harder to do the right thing for the needy versus doing the right thing for what he perceives would be better for his legacy. I'm hopeful.

Lefties should be happy with this win.

You know who I'm talking about. DFH's, CT'ers, contrarions and all other liberals. No matter how disappointed we get with the Democrats on most occassions we all know they butter our bread better than the other team.

The reason I think we should be happy is that the Democrats unity and resolve during this fiasco has meant a tectonic shift in the overton window. When was the last time that the media didn't blame both sides? When was the last time the public didn't blame both sides based on media accounts?

That shift means we're moving leftward. Sure it was mainly a win for the party, nothing in the way of liberal policies, but that is a nice move in the right direction.

Pay no attention to the loudmouths in the fanclub yelling for you to eat crow. You had good reason to be circumspect and they would have been claiming victory even if the Dems had given up the moon to get this deal.

ps. For you folks that dread going through this again next year because we only got a short term extension, I for one hope that we do. It will insure a Democratic House.

So here's my questions:

1) If I'm currently on SSDI and Medicare do I still have the option to purchase a private insurers plan if I opt out of Medicare?

2) If I opt out of Medicare for a year to join a plan in ACA can I opt back into Medicare without penalty?

3) When I look at the valuepenguin website to compare plans and it says .25 for specialty drugs is that 25%?

So we've had many diaries including a front page article proclaiming that ACA was open for applications. Nothing could be further from the truth.

I had a personal chat on the ACA website because it's impossible to apply and was told that the site would be functional at 8AM.
