1. So now come the big (yooge) lies!

CBO isn't accurate they say. I say they were damn accurate with their ACA predictions over time, why wouldn't this be as accurate?
Many will lose coverage, but still have better care (WTF did they get this one, makes zero sense)
Costs will go down (nope, they will go up 40% in next 2 years - on average- then start falling slightly and go down by 10%, but will still be 30% more expensive than they are now).
Obamacare is failing!! - No it's not. It's in trouble because they have already engineered the fall by removing the funding.

Ryan, and McConnell and the other right wing bottom feeders see people below the .01% as "people".

They see us as rubes, not worthy of anything but a few words in election years. They know that their base will vote for them whatever they do.

He really could walk up to any one of his hard core supporters, shoot their mom, spouse, or child dead and they'd cheer and thank him for makin' 'Murika great!

7. It is not when DT lies, it's DT lies all of the time. Even when he isn't talking

He lies when he talks, he lies when he twits, he lies when he is awake, he lies when he is asleep, he lies when he hires, he lies when he fires, he lies when he appoints, he lies when he has sex, he lies when he eats, he lies when he poops, he lies when he's interviewed, he lies when he thinks, he lies when he remembers, he lies when he lies.

He always lies.

has proved, with its wretched Death Panels !

Who would have thought the Republicans, the very people who warned you about the NHS Death Panels decimating the British public - a fine piece of investgaive journalism, there - would set up a Death Panel in your own wonderful, 'free at source' national/federal health service. Or that the British NHS should exert such a malign influence.... !

where the people that get the good stuff are the ones who own a yacht. If you own a yacht, you're golden; everyone else is f*cked.
