Tea Party sending hate to Rachel Ray

Just saw this on facebook :

TELL the producers of Rachel Ray's show what you think about her promoting Obamacare! Send an email to: showcomments@rachaelrayshow.com
Tell them how upset you are that she would insert politics into her show and you will NEVER watch again!

Because they can't get health care?

Hello, if the TP is pro-life they should want people to not die, yes?

regardless of the circumstances of the pregnancy. Then the tea party believes in denying the newly born baby food and medical care. Then the tea party believes in denying the growing child social services and a quality education. Then the tea party think they will go to heaven, but they shouldn't hold out expectation. And, not even satan will except those cold hearted bastards.

Her on screen persona is so sweet and bubbly that her fans are not going to take it well, whether or not they've signed up for the ACA or have been scared out of doing so.

I like to know where people are coming from.. I keep them as "friends" because maybe some of my posts may make them see the light... I can only hope.. I am amazed at how confused some people are about which party is responsible for certain circumstances in our history... and who is for and against certain things... anyway.. facebook shines a light on some hidden teapeople...

Vice President Biden dishes multiple marriage proposals in Rachael Ray talk show appearance

Biden will appear on the March 31 edition of the talk show in a push to get young people enrolling for health insurance.

He admits that it took four marriage proposals before his wife Jill said yes, Biden tells Rachael Ray in an interview airing during her daytime talk show on March 31.

Biden is appearing on the show as part of a last-minute push to get young people enrolling for health care on Healthcare.gov.

Biden will also dish about how Jill pranked him on April Fool’s Day by disappearing on Air Force Two and then jumping out of an overhead luggage compartment. And for those wondering about the vice president’s skin regimen, he says he uses a men’s version of Clinique skin cream at his wife’s recommendation.

Pam "professional Muslim-hater" Geller threw a fit about a scarf Ray was wearing, claiming it was a "terrorist scarf."
(It was actually a paisley scarf, but even if a right-winger totally fucks up, they'll never admit it.)

I always thought her name was probably Raquel Reyes, anglicized because she looks Spanish but that is no doubt the Sicilian in her. Oh, I'm not prejudiced because I'm half Spanish myself.

host on television or in magazines. Her act is always about food, never about views. Ray was brought to tears because of how the ACA directly and positively affected two people that she deeply love. Teabaggers show once again how vile they are.

and Mitt Romney went on Rachael too in 2012. If these right wingers want to go after a liberally biased TV show, they're going after the wrong Rachel.

Oh yeah it seems in Right Wing World, free speech is for Duck Dynasty cast members not commie pinko TV talk show hosts like Rachael Ray.
