I was actually thinking of images of the MILLIONS of people that are going to DIE when they don't get health care. (We can borrow those images from the dem archive.) We then show the cemetery as we discuss how the dem bill will fuck up our health care system. Fade to image of Osama Bin Laden "He only killed 2,000 Americans. Morph image to Obama Bin Lying: "He will kill millions" Replay millions of faces from Dem archives.

If I were a churchgoer I'd light up several boxes of candles and chant prayers round-the-clock that anyone would be so tone deaf that they'd actually do something so stunningly Rovian in its blatant disregard of the truth and so Three Stoogian in its attempt at seriousness.

Boy, Crocky, you really got nicked this morning. See if AmericanLickspittle can scare up a bandage somewhere.

Riiiight, Markh. Read Article I, Section 7 of the United States Constitution and get back to me.

They need to play the statement regarding this bill being a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack over and over again.

Holy shit! I just chipped a tooth on my bagel and splashed latte all over my laptop. This is grrrrrrrrreat! Here's the rough script:

SCREEN IMAGE: Young mother and baby, visting with physician.

VOICE OVER: Imogene Coca and her baby Jethro were able to have Jethro's hairlip fixed, his cerebal palsy cured, and his teeny weeny little baby heart mended, in spite of Congressman Bad Ol' Republican voting to deny the little tyke and his mom what they needed. Here's how our elected representative, Congressman Bad Ol' Republican, described the bill he voted against, the one that saved Jethro's mom and gave Jethro a chance at achieving the American Dream...

IMAGE OF CONGRESSMAN BAD OL' REPUBLICAN FILLS SCREEN: "...a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack..."

SCREEN IMAGE: A passenger jet flies across a sky superimposed over the face of Osama Bin Laden and into a WTC tower, explodes, fiery jet fuel cascading through the air, streaming through the shattered building.

IMAGE OF CONGRESSMAN BAD OL' REPUBLICAN FILLS SCREEN: "...a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack..."

CUT TO: Another plane filies across the Bin Laden sky into the WTC south tower with similar results

IMAGE OF CONGRESSMAN BAD OL' REPUBLICAN FILLS SCREEN: "...a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack..."

CUT TO: Image of Lil' Jethro, gurgling in his mom's arms.

VOICE OVER: Really, Congressman Bad Ol' Republican?

IMAGE OF CONGRESSMAN BAD OL' REPUBLICAN FILLS SCREEN: "...a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack..."

VOICE OVER: Don't you think it's about time you got your priorities straight, Congressman?

Yeah! Over and over and over and over and over again! Hey, when I get my toof fixed and my computer repaired, is there anything you'd like? A box of ceegars? A bike?

"They need to play the statement regarding this bill being a greater threat to our national well-being than any terrorist attack over and over again."

Oh, right, the Fear Card.
What? Again?
That'll work.
Like an exploding cigar.
Do it.
Please.

"the Senate may be more of a trick, only 1/3 of them are up for election. I suppose it will depend on how many of this third are Dems."

If Obama flew from D.C. to Berlin this weekend and the bill failed, then the same lockstepping mantra chanters who condemn him now for not going to Berlin would condemn him for "ignoring his responsibilities as POTUS in favor of another *sniff* photo op."

you can fall out of the closet...it's acceptable these days...

Even though I'm neither in a closet nor an exiter from one, let me say I'm glad to hear from a real, honest-to-goodness pioneer. I hope your friends and colleagues appreciate what you've done for helping reder the previously unacceptable acceptable. It's only through the hard work and personal sacrifice of those such as yourself that society makes those significant changes that herald real progress.

Crocky, you're touchingly childlike in the simplicity of your stupidity.

the Repubs will get to chant "We're Not Obama! We're Not Obama!" much like the left has done throughout Bush's two terms...

You're actually so ignorant of history that you think there some sort of never-changing looping effect at play? Bush was a special case, an inarticulate dolt who repeatedly demonstrated breathtaking ignorance and almost unbelievable incompetence. One who -- and, of course, you will have failed to take this into account -- had the presidency handed to him after failing to win a majority of the popular vote.

Obama's biggest problem is not Obama but the steaming compost heap Bush left behind for him to clean up.

I've no idea what you Republicans think you're going to do to put together a combination capable of attracting more, at best, 40% of the electorate -- remember, you're working from a core of 23%, compose of ignoramuses such as yourself who may vote but have no credibility (other than with other members of the ignorami, that is) -- and, from your posts, neither do you.

I guess all you can pray for is economic misery on a scale not seen since Reagan was in office.

I've little doubt, Chumpel, that for you "Peanut Butter = Scrotum," "Tuesday = Scrotum," "Basketball = Scrotum," and "Obsession = Scrotum."

To each his/her/its own.

Are you nurturing your damaged, lockstepping comrade-in-arms back to health in your lair as we speak, AmericanLickspittle? How cute!

Yeah, the Republicans have certainly demonstrated they're an imaginitive, adroit bunch capable of hammering together a reasonable, attractive alternative.

LOL!

Oooooh, not getting enough attention this morning, bumpkin?

Clear the hardened glue fumes out of your eyes, cupcake, because your reading-processing- comprehension skills suck.

"And, in fact, the new president and Congress had a real opportunity to divide the Republican Party."

They don't really have to do much, seeing as how the Republicans themselves are doing all the heavy lifting.

The current head of FEMA worked his way up from firefighter and paramedic to the position of Director of the Florida Divison of Emergency Management. Bush's choice, Brownie, brought a different kind of expertise to the business of emergency management as the failed Judges and Stewards Commissioner for the International Arabian Horse Association.

It takes a 2/3 majority of the voting members of both houses of Congress to override a presidential veto. That means, most likely, something on the order of 289-290 votes in the House and 67 in the Senate. I leave it to you to explain how you get the numbers that allow for what you're envisioning to actually occur.

"The Republicans will probably have the numbers required to repeal this horrific act and override the veto after 2010."

Now that's funny!

And stop posting threads that make JoeLabey look like a Pulitzer Prize winner.

Will do. If you'll stop posting threads that make you look like you like a horse's ass.

It's more concern than obsession.
#7 | Posted by cookfish

Of course it's not "conern," Crocky, unless "concern" and "obsession" are the same (which they aren't). You've no idea how my liver's doing. ("Just fine," Mr. Liver beams.) Your problem is simple: you're obsessed. It's a sign of that poorly developed, infantile ego and great big bundle of insecurities your life as an abandoned street child and glue sniffer who spent the best years of his life living troll-like under a bridge imposed on you. But console yourself with this thought: you wouldn't have amounted to a damn, anyway.

Time for Mr. Nappy, dontcha think?

Yes, please, Crocky, change your "Depends" - you're stinkin' up the joint. (That's what you get for smoking crack on a full gut.)

"Obsession," Crocky, it's not just a perfume; for some, like you, it's both a perfume and a mental disorder. (Although I've no difficulty understanding why, for you, a story about incarcerated youths would strike too close to home.)
