i’ve realized this morning after watching this supposed health care summit, i don’t want bipartisanship. generally that means leaving the things that matter the most on the cutting room floor…neutering the bill if you will.
when i listen to assholes such as john cornyn and mike pence and john mccain and their vitriol, i stop caring about what it is they want. they can fuck off for all i care. they are doing NOTHING to help me. fuckers!
these men care more about scoring political jabs while being televised. i heard from one reporter that the republicans are winning the day during this summit. why? because they are not speaking about genuine ways that they can come together. they’re reading their talking points and trying to insult the democrats. there are a couple – kyl and coburn – who tried to put some actual ideas out there. for the most part, though, it’s republican showmanship…the giant senate bills and the 11 page proposal by obama. props and talking points…no substance.
jon stewart had a wonderful monologue on the republican whining about putting a bill out then the bill not being comprehensive enough…take a look at huffington post:
i’m frustrated…republicans don’t represent what my family needs and democrats don’t seem be strong enough to fight for what we need. i wish i spoke swedish….
