Why do Tea Baggers make fun of a man with Parkison's Disease....

Hell their hero Rush Limbaugh did it to Michael J. Fox so what's good enough for that asshole is good enough for the sheep following him

Health bill protesters jeer at man with Parkinson’s disease

The passion against health care reform has elevated to such a level that protesters on Tuesday mocked an apparent Parkinson's Disease victim, scorning him as a "communist" who is looking for "handouts."

Protesters on both ends of the health care debate squared off in competing rallies outside the Columbus, Ohio office of district Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy (D-OH), who says she's undecided on her vote for the bill.

A wrinkled, kneeling man holding a stick crawled up to a group opposing the effort with a sign saying he's "got Parkinson's" and needs help.

"If you're looking for a handout you're in the wrong end of town," one man yelled at him. "Nothing for free over here, you have to work for everything you get."

2. Rush did. That's why.
Everyone knows that Parkinson's is a liberal disease;-) ...Michael J Fox has it...Rush lampooned him on his show...therefore it's Ok to make fun of people with it.

This is how the Teabagger mind works.

4. Screw the teabaggers
I want to know if the guy got in to see Rep. Kilroy and what she said to him. How do you look that person in the eye and say you're "undecided" on the health care bill? "Well gee, sir, that must double suck having Parkinson's and everything, but I have a chance to get on teevee and pretend to be undecided so lots of people will pay attention to me for about 24 hours. Gotta go. Kthxbai."

13. That was my first thought! How could the rep not step in and say "That's OUT OF LINE!"
Probably because she could give a shit.

5. Seeking their role model's approval.






They have no heart, they have no brain. They are empty people.

7. What makes me the most sick about this is most of them will shout they are "Christians" - yea right.
They are no more Christian then the devil himself and nothing can shame them into thinking they aren't the most rightgeous of people.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta
Given at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC Thur, 3 Feb 94.

http://www.columbia.edu/cu/augustine/arch/teresa94.html

On the last day, Jesus will say to those on His right hand, "Come, enter the Kingdom. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was sick and you visited me." Then Jesus will turn to those on His left hand and say, "Depart from me because I was hungry and you did not feed me, I was thirsty and you did not give me to drink, I was sick and you did not visit me." These will ask Him, "When did we see You hungry, or thirsty or sick and did not come to Your help?" And Jesus will answer them, "Whatever you neglected to do unto one of these least of these, you neglected to do unto Me!"

8. That's because these idiots follow Paul, NOT Jesus
Paul just hijacked Christ's name and applied it to his very selfish style faith that he pushed throughout the lands. Paul, someone who was not prophesized in the old testament and was one of thousands of people spreading the word of Christianity thru the lands (and writing about it). He was picked to be put in the bible by a group of romans.

Go figure.

12. RWers believe that family, friends, & charity should be the only means available
for obtaining any kind of assistance, everything outside of the three branches of government and the military should be privatized, only tax-paying and employed property owners should be permitted to vote,and abortion should be outlawed.

Of course if they had their way, charities would never be able to handle the additional millions who would need clothing, food, shelter, and medical/dental treatment. Most would likely turn to crime to survive, many would be caught, convicted, and imprisoned, which would then eventually pose another major quandry, who will, and how to pay for their incarceration, as well as the need to build thousands of additional (private) prisons to house them.

But why quibble over such small details, eh??

17. So what happens to those RWers who themselves become permanently unproductive burdens upon society?
Edited on Wed Mar-17-10 12:30 PM by Urban Prairie
Due to age, misfortune, unemployment, bankruptcy, imprisonment, disease, and/or disability?

Maybe those who are still healthy enough, can be convinced by their anti-entitlement peers to volunteer to become terrorist practice targets for our military, and be posthumously remembered as heroic patriots, instead of socialist parasites.

19. Because they are cowardly bullies and the man with Parkinson's can't deck them?
Have not yet heard of them picking after some strapping lad in top condition who might just be capable of taking their signs away and braking them over their heads.

assholes. I guarantee you if they were in the same position that they'd be fighting for health care as well.

All I have to say is, karma is a bitch.

25. Because they are assholes, plain and simple.
They have no compassion and have black hearts. They like to apply labels to themselves like 'moral' but they are anything but.
