REPUBLICAN 'Philosophy': "I CAN HIRE HALF THE WORKING CLASS TO KILL THE OTHER HALF"
This quote from Jay Gould, wealthy financier, posted at link below, really sums up the Republican political philosophy.

IT SHOULD BE PRINTED UP ON CARDS AND HANDED OUT TO THE DUMB-FUCKS SHOUTING DOWN ALL EFFORTS TO INFORM PEOPLE WHAT HEALTH CARE REFORM IS REALLY ALL ABOUT.

Thanks to rurallib for this wonderful post which I missed. This really sums up how much the Republican party "feels" for the "average" person.

6. Yeah, when these idiots start losing their health insurance over the next several years - it will be
kindof like suicide. (Of course, when that happens THEN they will want some one to come to their rescue.)

The GOP must be laughing their asses off at these idiots at the town halls - all worked up over fantasies. You almost can't blame the GOP for the enormous contempt they have for us, the "common" people ( i.e. anybody who can't "pay the freight" with contributions or 6 and 7 figure jobs for them as their reward, when they are ready to retire from politics.).

2. No, that's the political strategy of the Corporatist Party who now control our government and keep
voters divided and polarized over issues like God, Gays, Guns and now Health-Care while they tighten their strangle hold over every key sector of our economy and use our troops to further their control of the world's financial machinery.

"Other than that, how did you enjoy the play Mrs. Lincoln?"

5. You're right the GOP even if they don't control the WH or Congress still can manage to confuse,

divide and destroy. They still are managing to keep constructive solutions from being realized by subverting the process. many people do have genuine questions about the health care reform issue. But they didn't stand a chance of finding anything out with the hysterical GOP robots preventing anybody from getting any (legitimate questions answered). This is how you subvert the democratic process.

3. In my community, the motto is:
I can use public funds to buy half of the community to undermine the rights of the other half and make it easier to develop property.
