Oh Bill O'Reilly, will you ever learn...

[fraga]

Hilarity ensues.

[PublicOption]

I remember seeing this when it happened. Foxnews is straight bull and if this doesn't convince people not to listen nothing will.

[DarrinS]

Bill O. was wrong, but everyone else in that vid spoke the truth.

[DarrinS]

Oh, in case you need a link

In case you didn't actually read the link you posted:

The health care bill that was signed into law by President Obama says criminal penalties will not apply to those who refuse to get coverage and refuse to pay the penalty tax. As we wrote in a March 2010 post on the IRS’ responsibilities, the law says on page 131: "In the case of any failure by a taxpayer to timely pay any penalty imposed by this section, such taxpayer shall not be subject to any criminal prosecution or penalty with respect to such failure."

[sickdsm]

So if they don't pay, nothing happens?

Sounds like a middle/upper class tax.

[DMX7]

What a goddamn ing idiot.

In case you didn't actually read the link you posted:

Should the full Senate approve that language, a House-Senate conference committee would have to wrestle with the question of whether or not a person who refuses to obtain coverage and refuses to pay the penalty can be charged with criminal tax evasion.

[George Gervin's Afro]

The fun part is that his show is the number 1 rated program on cable... I guess Obama was right when he said that Fox News has a certain point of view..

Which means nobody really knew if jail time would be one of the consequences of not paying the penalty tax.

Besides, after the bill was passed (Nov. 7, 09) this would have been a moot point. Were all of those clips prior to that date?

[fraga]

Come on now people...this is Fox "News" we're talking about here...facts don't matter...

[sickdsm]

I'm not trying to be an ass, someone please explain what's going to change? If health insurance would be mandatory, what would happen to the bums that don't have it now, yet still get free care?


Sounds to me like saying if you don't pay your taxes, we're going to fine you. But if you don't pay that fine nothing's going to happen to you anyway.

Carefully look at the video again. It is obviously edited. Maybe the time line is incorrect too. Could O'Reilly have said that before any of this was said?

Besides, most never said the government "would" like O'Reilly restated, but most a word indicating "could."

Would and could mean different things to me. Am I wrong?

[balli]

Are you sure he is wrong?

Jesus, you are such a delusional sack of crazy. How the to you manage to brainwash yourself to such a flat-out insanely out of touch with obvious reality degree?

You are not of sane mind cobra.

edit: Someone in the other thread invoked the word Orwellian in regards to you. Exactly. You go out of your way to brainwash yourself. It's disgusting.

All i know is if it was aired before he said that, there should be some firings at FOX bc they obviously researched it.


I don't watch FOX, are those guys all hosts or are they guests????

Do "would" and "could" mean the same thing to you?

[balli]

You're a nutcase.

I hate people like you. (Everybody does, hate you, specifically)

Cobra says the sky is yellow.

There's a difference.

[Wild Cobra]

You're a nutcase.

Thank-You.

I think that's the nicest thing you ever said to me...

[DarrinS]

You seem like such a nice person.

[balli]

You seem like such a nice person.

ok, thanks.

I'll drink a beer with Balli and I don't think we agree on anything. Probably argue about the beer!

You do realize Ballijuana probably wants you killed right? He's gone on extremely emotional tantrums about how a large portion of the population should be killed. He even started a thread about finding people on-line/forums (presumably on this forum) and having them offed.

He's not the "beer and peanuts and football" type. In fact, if there's an actual, bona fide dangerous nutcase on this forum, it's him.
