Latest right wing response to the health care debate on Facebook
no one should die because of zombies if they can't afford a shotgun, or even just a machete. And no one should be turned into a vampire if they get bitten by one, or by a werewolf for that matter. If you agree, post this as your status for the rest of the day.

Ummm, am I missing something here? This doesn't seem particularly funny. It's an obvious response to the latest progressive messaging on FB :No one should die because they can not get health care and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day.

Thoughts?

2. Sounds like we should all get shotguns or machetes, because the rethuglicans
I mean "zombies, vampires, and werewolves" are going to attack.

They just can't stop terrorizing America.

3. My guess is that we are talking about an 11 year old's response
or a 50 year old with "challenges".

4. Those pricks don't have an original bone in their bodies.
If there were no one left to give them their daily dose of talking points, they wouldn't be able to do anything but wither away and die.

7. From 2001 to 2008, there was one continually holed up in an "undisclosed location".
You know the one I mean -- the guy with the lesbian daughter John Kerry wasn't supposed to mention.

15. It's too stupid
to warrant a response. That kind of stupid isn't interesting.

13. my impression was different, that it was a call for healthcare.
Edited on Sun Sep-06-09 01:30 AM by Trillo
My out-of-context interpretation:

Poor folks (so poor they cannot even afford a cheap machete) should have healthcare access to cure the (bite of the) parasite (disease).

14. Remedial Healthcare? Mental Health Counseling?
A vaccine for "Teh Stoopid" (and criminally unfunny)?

All the words were spelled correctly, so I'm going with "some 12 year old". It can't be a genuine FReeper, or they'd have given us the obvious, unintentionally comedic opening of "Where Wolf".
