ANYBODY WANNA TALK ABOUT THE REPUBLICAN RESPONSE

[FarLeftFist]

Source: independent

It was tacky and out-dated plus horribly rehearsed and mis-informed. Yet another republican FAIL! Their responses are becoming notoriously legendary for their un-intelligence and foolishness.

No link yet.

Your thoughts?

[DesertFlower]

1. it was terrible. nt

[Eric68601]

2. HA

Sounded like a damn Sarah Palin stump speech of idiocy.

[Parker CA]

3. Lies, lies, and more lies. nt.

[grantcart]

4. gag gag gag barf barf barf clean up on aisle 2 order new keyboard

[high density]

Totally out of touch

Obama talked about the lies, then on cue two minutes after his speech, this idiot mutters the exact lies Obama just talked about. They're predicable at least.

[and-justice-for-all]

5. Not really...heard it for 8 years...thanks

[alfredo]

6. Pathetic. Bobby Jindal would have been better. The 30's horror movie lighting

didn't help.

[Avalux]

7. Not really - nothing there to talk about.

Same old tired crap that had no relevance to Obama's speech. Given by a man who tried to buy the title of "Lord" in England (WTF??) and is a proud member of the birther crowd.

[Diamonique]

8. It was stupid.

The idiot was arguing against stuff that the President had just said would not be in the bill.

[BlueIdaho]

9. About as effective

as a hot lead enema.

[RoccoR5955]

Cons rebuttle was pathetic.

It was the exact opposite of what President Obama said!

[BootinUp]

10. What party is that? nt

[doc03]

11. The a--hole repeated virtually all the lies the

President just finished calling them out on. Then after the response the first commercial on CNN repeated the same lies about cutting Medicare and rationing health care for seniors.

[ProudDad]

12. A Fucking repuke heart surgeon

the elite of the elite (and doubtless a fucking millionaire a dozen times over)...

Typical repuke bullshit...

-----------------------

On Edit: Well, well...

He must have worked at an HMO 'cause his net worth has him at #283 in the house (out of 435)...From $200,000 to 500,000

Of course, as Keith said, he was sued for malpractice 3 times -- and just missed becoming "Lord Boustanay"...

[sohndrsmith]

13. appreciate the thread - but I think the response was basically

irrelevant. No? Not much to discuss, (that I can see, and I could be missing something - easily) other than it was boilerplate SSDD (same s*** different day). It was pretty much a non-event in my view... but what do I know? : )

[chieftain]

14. You gotta admit that hving him speak from the Strom Thurmond

Room was a stroke of GOP brilliance.

[KT2000]

15. It was terrible but

the ad that ran after by 60plus was even worse. It was full of the lies that Obama mentioned in his speech - a total fear tactic.

Sure would not want that heart surgeon to have my life, or loved ones' lives in his hands. Love it when doctors stop their careers to become money managers for the wealthy in this country.

[wisteria]

16. You said it all. n/t

[Engineer4Obama]

17. I only wish it was longer

so that they had more time to prove they were assholes.

[LisaLynne]

18. Yep, the more they talk, the more they prove they've got no ideas ...

no clue, no compassion.

[backscatter712]

19. Sued three times for malpractice, and surprise, surprise, surprise, he likes tort reform!

Keith also mentioned he's a birther...

[fadedrose]

20. Pres. Obama promised to call people out by NAME if they

told lies, and this guy Boustany or whatever his name was, was lying about Obama's plan.

Oh well, sued 3 times for malpractice, and a birther, what else could we expect?

[Honeycombe8]

21. It was a Wilson of S. Carolina who yelled out "YOU LIE." I think I heard he's birther.

His name is being reported...heard it on both MSNBC and CNN.

Good! (altho many of his constituents will probably like that. Still, he should be called out for his immature and disrespectful behavior.)

[Phx_Dem]

22. Holy shit. And thanks for locking up the Democratic vote for us!

I thought Nancy Pelosi was going to leave her chair to find that person. She was beyond livid, and it took for a while to calm down. I thought Biden was going to have to restrain her.

Wilson just showed the entire world what the Republican party is made of -- disrespect for the highest office in the United States (and the world) and the lack of the most basic set of manners that would shame any decent human being. We should be glad that he has pulled the mask off the Republican party and shown the vile monster that lurks beneath. We always knew who they really were, but now everyone knows, so thanks for that.

But answer me this, Riddler. If a "Green Jobs Czar" (Van Jones) is forced to resign because he signed a petition saying the U.S. government might have had advance knowledge of 911, how can a person who called the President of the United States a liar during a joint session of Congress be in allowed remain in the FUCKING UNITED STATES CONGRESS?!!! Huh?

[burning rain]

23. About six minutes of drivel.

Doan like gummint. Really pitiful stuff.

[rockymountaindem]

24. No.

[Jennicut]

25. Like watching paint try...emotionless and cold.

[snacker]

26. From a visual point of view,

it looked like a SNL skit.

[TankLV]

27. No.

[skypilot]

28. I turned it off as soon as I heard him say...

...that "replacing" Americans' health insurance with a government run plan wasn't the answer. I actually switched over to American's Next Top Model which actually had more intelligent discussions going on. Out of curiosity, I switched back about five minutes later--maybe less--and the idiot was already done. He obviously didn't have a lot to say.
