"BRILLIANT!"

[Raine1967]

5. Amazing how many RWers WANT the gov't involved in healthcare right now......

[Sheepshank]

8. So are the RW'ers admitting that emergency hosiptal care isn't really health care?

I havent actually heard any one of them articulate that.....to much annoyance. They will not admit a mistake even when slapped in the face with a bloody wet fish.

10. Of course

How else can they blame Obama? If they take away health insurance from millions and we have an Ebola outbreak here, it's set up perfectly to blame on Obama. Facts won't matter - it's only the image of people dying from Ebola while Obama is president that Fox News can run 24/7/

11. They don't see the connection to good health care

and people being healthier, fewer diseases of any kind being spread around. These are basically the same people who have been defunding public health care measures and the CDC for decades now.

12. Republicans just do not CARE. Simple as that.

13. I am not intending to start an argument, and hope that this response

does not seem argumentative, but I think to say that they just don't care is an oversimplification. There are lots of things I just don't care about, like the baseball stuff that's going on right now, but my not caring about that has no larger implications.

Not seeing any connection between health care and other things in the larger world, like epidemics, is far more than not caring. Not seeing the connection is precisely why they've been so willing to defund public health, to be willing to let others go without health care. It's part of the view that so many, especially the very religious among them have, that they were put on earth to be in charge of things and that nothing humans do could possibly have bad consequences on a global scale.

You are right that they don't care, but why the don't care is the scary and dangerous part.

14. I learned a long time ago from The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show:

Boris Badinov speaking about Bullwinkle and a failed attempt at controlling Bullwinkle's mind "No brain, no effect".

I think this rule applies to much of the Republican base.

15. sure, just like they want government to stay away from medicare

16. Exacty! Freaking idiots who suck it up.
