Republicans are shutting down the Government to stop people from getting affordable health care.

[charlie and algernon]

We should be repeating that sentence far and wide. They are shutting down the Government and damaging the economy to prevent people from having access to affordable health care.

1. what has worked for me is that when i run into somone in a full obamacare rant

i casually mention that without obama care i am really fucked

60 years old
overweight
treated high blood pressure

self employed
used to have insurance thru wifes job
that ended

i am totally fucked

they tend to be taken a bit aback when obamacare has a face infront of them.

one clown said help is always available at the emergency room
and i told him that was the quickest route to bankruptcy i know of.

he then said bankruptcy wouldn't be that bad
and i said
guess that is the american way

shut him up

3. not only are teabaggers mean and selfish

But they are woefully ignorant. Seriously Bankruptcy wouldn't be that bad??

2. To the tea bagger segment they actually want to bring the government down. This is why it is

critical that Democrats stand together on this, or it will be extremely bad for the country and the future of the Democratic party.

I am pretty sure that the budget will not get passed on time, the extremists in the republican party will not let it happen

The more critical issue is the debt ceiling, and unless the republican party can control the tea baggers, that will cause an economic disaster in an already weak economy starting to get better.

5. Republicans are killing people.

The ACA will save lives and they are trying to stop it.

6. Is there some reason our side is not repeating this far and wide?

Why does it always seem like the Repubs are PR masters who spin gold out of pure bullshit while Dems fail miserably at sharing simple obvious truth? The other side always looks so smug too.
