I am thinking we should be bombarding Boner's and McConnell's phones demanding an apology from them
in behalf of the disgusting RACIST behavior that was displayed today by their followers. They are the leadership of these pigs, they are on the floors of Congress everyday scaring people about HCR.

Between this and what happened in Ohio, I am sick.


Thoughts?

2. +1
If you're going to call someone, call a wavering Democrat and urge a "Yes" vote on HCR.

4. I'm just thinking they need to know how angry we are - can you imagine if the situation was reversed
The pigs would be screaming for our heads.

6. They love it that you are angry and they know that if they don't do shit it makes you more
angry.

Why give them that?

10. Because they were able to bully Congress into condemning MoveOn
Embarrassment is a powerful tool -- and being too intimidated to even say peep is a far worse situation than bombarding the GOP with their own shame and having them stonewall it.

5. Rep Ryan took it to the floor:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x445336

But I'm all for calling them and stating what I usually do: Although I'm not a constituent, I am prepared to contribute to his challenger's campaign next election.

With my luck, both of them have made so much money off their insurance buddies they'll probably retire after this term. But I'll definitely let them know of my disgust.

Who's the guy with the white hair (young guy, maybe a tanning buddy of Boehner's, kind of a big wig). He was shown the clip of those despicable people taunting the man with Parkinson's and he made some "that's wrong" comments, but you could tell he didn't give a shit. Are these people psychopaths? Do they not FEEL anything?

The spitting on Cleaver upsets me more than I can express. I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it.

7. I caught Ryan on CNN. I just think we need to be screaming about this.
The spitting, and making fun of Barney Frank's lisp is beyond comprehension. These people have no scruples. They are trash, the gooey, stinky stuff that is in the bottom of rotting trash. Unbelievable. We really saw their true colors today.

8. I'm more than willing to scream. And by the Reps not addressing this, we're
seeing THEIR true colors, too.

9. I was wrong - these people have no color. Except Boner, and I'm not sure what color that is!
