Next time I go to the supermarket, I’m taking Obama

But just in case he can’t come, I’m going to watch this! (Right after I see Avatar in 3D.)

My arrest for mass murder in the supermarket

“It was 70 minutes long, and filled with “me’s” and “my’s.”

At a supermarket I don’t usually go to, and won’t go to again, the cashier is talking to the woman in front of me.

“We’re going to get hit again, and they don’t seem to know it.”

Those lily-livered weak-spined Democrats. Except I’m starting to feel like shooting both of them.

“At least the health care plan is dead. Do you know that a couple making $50,000 would have to pay $8,000 more a year in that plan?”

How do the Republicans manage to get people to believe these lies? Oh yes, Fox News.

“And there’s some nasty things in the cap and trade bill.”

I’d really like to ask what a supermarket clerk knows about the cap and trade bill. But that’s elitist. The guns were a better idea.

“We’ve got to get rid of that bunch.”

Or take out all the Republicans.

The State of the Dis-Union

If you were a Republican in Congress, and if you found out that 83% of the people who watched the State of the Union Address last night approve of Obama’s proposals, wouldn’t it make sense to try to get some work done?

No, it’s more fun trying to read Justice Alito’s lips.

Too sick for health care

Take one helping of disgruntled Republicans who want Obama to fail. Add another (large) of health insurance executives, and another (even larger) of people who believe Fox News is fair and balanced, and what do you get? A sick country.

Happy Birthday, Birthers!

(and to Obama as well).

Republicans are strange ducks. Nearly 60% of them aren’t sure Obama was really born in the United States, but they sure didn’t seem to care too much about George Romney (born in Mexico), or John McCain (born on a military installation in Panama, but not on true-blue (excuse me, true-red) American soil).

Well, today is their day. They could be hauling out even more fake birth certificates, but instead they’re yelling at people in town meetings and sending around false emails so that health-care insurers can keep on making money.

Lying about where our president was born is one thing. Lying to protect the interests of the rich, and deprive the poor of health care, is quite another.
