Another nutty fear-mongering Republican!

Excerpt below from HuffPo:
.... today she came up with a brand new health care reform objection when she said that the Republican health care plan -- whatever that is! -- would "make sure we bring down the cost of health care for all Americans and that ensures affordable access for all Americans and is pro-life because it will not put seniors in a position of being put to death by their government."

1. Don't laugh -

this is making the rounds. Fred Thompson had a lady on his show recently talking about people "having to die".

[beltanefauve]

17. This IS making the rounds

My own mother was spouting this shit on Facebook.

[mascarax]

19. Fred Thompson has a show?!

Why?!

(And she is reprehensible...I am willing to donate to help get her out.)

20. Where are the leaders of the Republican Party?.....

They can't control these lunatic individuals. This cock-eye Hillbilly need to go back to the Appalachia's in North Carolina. We have the Tea Party, Birthers, and now this crazy bat saying the government is going to kill old people with health care. This is her :crazy:

[rurallib]

2. do these folks realize that most seniors currently have government health care?

Ergo, nothing will probably change for them.

[bkkyosemite]

6. I'm on Medicare (disabled) IDIOTS!!!

[rurallib]

27. So is my wife

Shew gets GREAT, GREAT care. I can't afford to see a doctor.

[Raven]

3. I'm not afraid of my government killing me...I'm afraid of their government killing me.

[asjr]

4. There seems to be a plethora of Republican dumbasses

in NC.

[KansDem]

7. "Republican dumbasses"...

...is a redundancy.

[Mira]

23. You said it. This nut job Foxx is from my district, lives in my city, and those

around me put her into office and kept her there.
It's an embarrassment.
You don't have to be Republican to be stupid, but most stupid people really are Republicans.

[moonbatmax]

28. That's dumb ELEPHANTS, please...

...thank you very much! :evilgrin:

[HillbillyBob]

5. my friend says:

she's living proof that rabid coyotes fuck lonely buffalos
edited to add

If we let rpukes run health care we would die.
I happen to be on medicare and medicaid. I do get to choose my drs etc all these things are fear inducing bs.

[handmade34]

8. the proposed bill

includes clauses that encourage end of life decision making and this is how the Republicans intrepret it... I for one am a strong advocate for end of life decision making for the benefit of family members and society as a whole. The facts are out there and we need to counter the lies.

[BlueIdaho]

9. Tea Baggers... Birthers... Now these kooks - so what do we call them?

Snuffers?

[n2doc]

10. Yep. Here's a cartoon illustrating what these nuts are trying to spread

They will say ANYTHING TO STOP REFORM.

[booley]

11. Isn't this normal for her?

Before this she said the Matthew Shephard murder was a hoax and before that we have the tar baby comment.

She kind of has a track record now of being an idiot.

[tomm2thumbs]

24. That's HER! You're right - she's the one who spoke against Matthew Shepard hate crimes bill

I knew that she looked eerily familiar, and it was no flashback from my Jr. High School's assistant principal's office incident.

...or was it?

[YOY]

12. Is there anything they won't say or imply to stop any improvement on medical care?

I don't think there really is.

[AsahinaKimi]

13. PRO LIFE?

is pro-life because it will not put seniors in a position of being put to death by their government

What is with these people? So many HATERS in the Republican party.

[Turbineguy]

14. I thought that was the whole idea behind blocking reform

to kill more people.

I wish these people would make up their minds!

[indimuse]

15. To HELL with you , you

Sinning LIAR! There! Pro Life this! GOD is watching..:eyes:..

[LaPera]

16. Who in their right mind would vote for this crazy old twisted lying corporate bag?

A Republican....Un-fucking believable....This is the kind of trash mentality we are dealing with and we expect a rational, honest dialogue with these stupid hicks? GET FUCKING REAL!

[Tx4obama]

18. Louie Gohmert: ....old people dying in line . ...

Here's another fearmongering republican:

21. Now, here's a person in danger of losing human reincarnation.

Or, at the least, coming back having people not believe what she says, according to the Buddhist canon, if I remember correctly.

[stuball111]

22. Hell,I'm all for it!

They should just send old people out on ice flows into the arctic ocean, Like they do in Canada to save health care and feed the Polar Bears!

[The Wizard]

25. What can be done

about Canada's ice floe shortage. The dying boomers will cause the Arctic ice shelf to melt into the sea.

[stuball111]

26. I know!

Those meatheads up there are the ACTUAL CAUSE of global warming! And nobody realizes that! All those old people are warm, living bodies that melt the ice flows, and some of them light fires to keep warm, using whale blubber, they learn to adapt, and stay alive for a while, all the time, creating a global mess. Don't let Billo the clown find this out or it will be all over Fox news!
