Talk about tone deaf. Is there anyone this convention is not going to insult?

In edit: She was talking about the "bridge to nowhere", but really. How disgusting.

7. I'm sure there could have been republicans killed in the collapse.
The bridge collapse devastated us, ALL of us here in Minnesota. This just made me sick.

12. Minnesota needed that bridge funding. Alaska didn't.
I'm sure the bridge comparison never even occurred to them... tone deaf is right.

20. "Obama thinks government is the rescuer" Well, who else can repair the bridges?
Is big oil going to volunteer to take on the thankless job? I'm not holding my breath.

We spend 33% of our national economy on government. It couldn't be important, if it's 33%, could it?

These people are just too stupid to understand that without a government, we're cambodia. Zimbabwe. Haiti.
Without a government providing safe water, air, roads, schools, food, drugs, we're a third world country.

They're just willing to swallow any talking point, regardless of if they understand it or it actually makes rational sense.

Forget understanding that they're voting against their own interests. That's too hard.

I swear, it's becoming the national tracking system:

Democrat: Honors
Republican: "Would You Like Fries With That."
