So - Limbaugh, Boehner, and myriad others in various pockets of the vaunted conservative movement have AGAIN (for the umpteenth time) proven to all that they are grossly ignorant, and indeed, willfully so.  And the same is obviously true of the majority of their followers (or is it foolowers?).

I don't believe they are stupid as much as deliberately and willfully ingnorant of the actual truth, greedy, vindictive, and indeed, in the biblical sense of the word, evil.  Winning and looking good to others is far more important than the biblical injunction to love their neighbor as themselves.  That's not peccadillo, that's greedy, selfish, premeditated evil.

They are certainly NOT the kind of people one would trust with the welfare of one's children, pets, or in fact anything more important than a burned out match.

Gee, ya think that might be why I left the Publican Party during the Nixon (just another Republican Crook....) Impeachment hearings?  Nawww....... that would cause a conservative to come to a rational, logically arrived at conclusion, something they are violently allergic to...........

Holy Cow!! Makes him look darned stupid if you ask me!! We learned this in elementary school for pete's sake!!

I am not at all against HCR- is there some reason for you to say I am not. I have outlined my HCR ideas on these pages numerous times.

Perhaps I am not for a bill that creates 111 new Federal bureacracies, forces people to buy insurance of the type tthe government tells them to, uses financial gimicry to fudge the cost and make it about 50% less than it is; injects to government into yet more of the private sector and is aimed at going to single payer, doesn't do one thing to reduce any costs, steals $500 bil from Medicare; doesn't have any effective controls to eliminate participation in subsidies by illegal aliens, prohibits the satates from limiting junk lawsuits ot any caps on trail lawyer fees, provides a Tojan horse to force healthcare workers into the SEIU, puts a multi-trillion dollar burden on our struggling economy... ad infinitim.

The WORST thing is- it is a big bang mess that has no chance of sucess- it creates a huge risk for our healthcare system- much worse than many of the failed state experiments. It will lead to rationing (especially for seniors), extrodinarily long waits, doctors taking early retirement.. most likely all out chaos and dislocation.

Rightie loco!

and instead can only search high & low for something you can grasp onto to contend conservatives are the stupid ones.

I didn't have to search high and low to know that the man was quoting the Declaration of Independence and not the Constitution.  Apparently it wasn't obvious to you.....it certainly wasn't to anyone on the stage with him OR his audience of great "patriots". LOL

Boehner far better than BO ON EVERY LEVEL.

BO is NOT a friend of the middle class. I suggest you read "Rules for Radicals" and you will see Allinsky (and BO) actually loathe the middle class- their middle class "sympathies" are used to cloak their actual goal of income and power redistribution to the lowest economic tier.

I am not calling BO the Messiah- I am saying you and your ilk treat him as one.

Case in point- BO has a gafe list miles long- you never mention them and instead can only search high & low for something you can grasp onto to contend conservatives are the stupid ones.

I know it's almost impossible for radical rightwingers but could you TRY to stick to the topic? You compare a Boehner to an Obama?  ROFL

Have you ever noticed how ONLY rightwingers refer to the President as a "messiah"?  It must be your opinion because we who voted for him know exactly who he is...a man who is for the middle class that Bush & Co tried so hard to destroy....and just about succeeded while his elite rich friends got richer with their tax breaks that have cost us plenty. Trickle down?...oh , yeah..sure. LOL 

"old codgers" is name calling???  LOL I'm as old as any of them so I'm entitled to call my age group whatever I want. What "facts" have we neglected?  I have stuck to the facts - problem is you don't like them.The "new" GOP is a part of radicals. That is a fact. Anyone who is moderate and speaks up is called a RINO.  I have zilch respect for any people who could follow a psycho like Bachmann....or a buffoon like Beck.  Don't tell me that's NOT sheeple. The woman is certifiable with her conspiracy theories and anarchistic proclamations and he's a shock jock entertainer.

I don't need you telling me - I'm well aware of the importance of health care reform in this country and I assume by your snarky post that you are against it.  I've been fighting FOR it to the best of my ability and shall continue to do so. We've waited 50+ years for it. Republicans fought MEDICARE, MEDICAID and SS - where would millions of Americans be now  without these?

It's a disgrace that anyone in the United States of America should be WITHOUT health insurance. We are BEHIND every other industrialized nation in the world.  Health care should not be a PRIVILEGE for those who can afford it.....it's a necessity for everyone.
