Dear Angry Americans On The Right


You didn't get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.
You didn't get mad when a certain vice president allowed energy company officials to dictate energy policy.
You didn't get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.
You didn't get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.
You didn't get mad when we spent over 1 trillion dollars (and counting) on said illegal war.
You didn't get when over 10 billion dollars disappeared in Iraq.
You didn't get mad when you saw the Abu Grahib photos.
You didn't get mad when you found out we were torturing people.
You didn't get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.
You didn't get mad when we didn't catch Bin Laden.
You didn't get mad when you saw the horrible conditions for our veterans at Walter Reed Memorial Hospital.
You didn't get mad when we let a major US city drown.
You didn't get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark (until a new president took over).
You didn't get mad when unregulated banks sent our country into a debt-based recession.

You finally got mad when...when the elected government decided that people in America deserve the right to see a doctor if they are sick.

Yes!

Illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, stealing your tax dollars to make the rich richer are all ok with you, but Americans helping other Americans...well, to hell with that! Through fear, you chose to blame the current state of affairs on the people that have been in charge for only 20% of the last decade and now you've put the buffoons that got us here back in charge? Is that about right?


sincerely

    Republicans, circa November 3, 2010: "Why is Obama shoving healthcare down our throats? He should be focusing on jobs."

    Republicans, circa November 7, 2010: "Let's focus on this healthcare bill"

    Dear yahoo poster


    When these isolated incidents become the norm and not the exception your rant has no real significance. NO mister know-it-all us Americans got mad when that 2,000+ page health care bill passed without most of our so-called leaders ever reading said bill....let alone understand the damn thing.

    LOL. So you really think all that ? is coincidence, and not signs of incompetence and/or corrupted interest?

    What a ? .

    Dear heysick

    I question your integrity, mainly because I highly doubt you were equally applaud by how George W. Bush controversially won the presidency not once but twice and HIGHLY doubt you were outraged at how he went on to start not only 1 but 2 senseless wars were 1000s of young American men and women lost their lives

    You republicans make me laugh whenever you don't get your way you start ? and crying about the Democrats dismantling of the constitution because their not going out of their way to suit their particular wants - not the overall needs of their constituents or the American public in general, but their wants, and the wants of the wealthy. In regards to healthcare, can you begin to tell me, what solution has the right offered to reform healthcare, other than to continue to de-regulate the insurance industry and let the insurance providers run rampant with their premiums and who or what they will and won't provide for? As a matter of fact, what specific solutions have they offered to any significant issues (the economy, energy, the environment, etc...) other than wanting to give wealthy people another tax cut that's going to cost the rest of us $700 billion, or continue fighting a war that makes Vietnam pale in comparison, or to continue thinking that global warming is a myth. Whenever they're asked what they plan to do about anything, they always talk about this plan or agenda that they're putting into play - well where and what the f@ck is it already? Whenever someone points their lack of specifices or points out their failures they run to the healthcare issue, and the sad thing is that high functioning retards, like yourself, don't even realize that their agenda basically freezes out everybody and benefits no one, except rich caucasians. You've got republican governors refusing stimulus money that would create jobs, and they're saying the only way they'd use the money is if they were legally required to...the stimulus bill is a law...it's called the American Recovery and Reinvestment act, so there's their legal requirement. It seems like repubs would rather keep this country in neutral, falling farther behind China and other industrialized nations, for whatever twisted reasons they might have...right now, it's simple...they don't like President Obama because he represents the exact opposite of their status quo...they (you!!!) can't stand the fact that a black man's in the most powerful position in the world, and that he's trying to help people other than the republican base...

    Continuing this debate with you would be fun, because I could blow all of your bullsh!t arguments out of the water, but that would make me appear to be as ignorant as you are.

    Can't read all that stuff....WTF ?

    That's because you're the high functioning ? that I said you are...typical republican...you can dish it, but when it's thrown back at you, you've always got an excuse.

    And if you aren't a repub, and are defending your initial reply to this thread...you're just ignorant.

    Whether you want to believe it or NOT.....that is really getting old. Oppose Obama and his agenda/policies you get labeled racist..... ? -IT I said it and I mean it....his policies suck....! FYI I'm an INDPENDENT.....SO STICK-IT UP YOURS

    What are you getting offended for homegirl - what, you can't take the truth? Out of everything I said, your ignorant ass piggy backed on the race issue and got it all ? up...I didn't say that if you oppose Obama you're labeled a racist, you ? idiot...I said that republicans have a problem with the simple fact that he's in office and it's a direct opposite of their status quo...they never wanted him in there, be it race or anything else, but truth be told, they want him outta there for the obvious reason...that gives them justification to magnify their issues with him and his policies...if his policies are ? up, so be it, but that doesn't erase the other truths that exist...next time, try learning how to read and comprehend, you ? .

    And stop hiding behind that independent ? ...people like you ? me off with that ? ...you sat in here and defended republican policy and now don't want to substantiate it...man, ? you...if you're really independent, let it reflect in your opinion...otherwise either man up or shut up...now stick that up YOURS...you're probably used to that kind of action anyway...loser!!!

    Oh really? where in my post/reply did I deny said events DIDN'T happen....FYI I've already stated previously that most/many alot of our so-called leaders/politicians are crooks liars,and thieves....so Y bother with the rest of your malarkey?

    I never suggested that you denied said events didn't happen (????) . What I'm saying is that you're delusional to view these as isolated events and not see it as a clear pattern of incompetence and irresponsibility.

    And yes, ever since Bush left office, conservatives love telling me that they never really liked him, but they were awfully quiet when he was actually in power.

FYI if you really knew what you were talking 'bout you wouldn't be beating on that dead horse issue IE about ME supporting ? Bush....my very first thread @ this site was titled Impeach Bush/the bastard. SO honestly who's to question someones INTEGRITY now? HAVE you ever heard of spell check????


    WTF?

    that word isn't misspelled

    what the hell are you talking about.

    and how is voting for healthcare equal to anything Bush did that was found to be "unconstitutional"?

    ON one hand you admit I was aware of those events.Then on the other hand you're claiming I'm delusional because I don't see it the same way as you do....damn! --- Incidentally I wasn't quiet when he was in office, so DON'T pigeon hole me with that 'you Conservatives' play both sides against the middle then cry foul when folks like me say BS! to your theory that one size fits all. I've mentioned this several times recently.....NOW hear this Bush should of been impeached while he was in office. The ? ? did MORE harm than good.

    Like I said. You say it now that he's out of office.

    not sure why dude feel the need to defense this.

    because "somebody" was supporting and greenlighting Bush's ?

    and any who openly opposed or disagreed how things were gong were outcasted labled as "un-Amercain" or in alot cases far worst
