Randy Rhodes: The latest GOP talking point is REPARATIONS!!!!!!

[bigdarryl]

Obama did this health care for reparations. There bringing out the race card SURPRISE SURPRISE!!!!

[SpiralHawk]

1. The republicons owe all of America reparations

for the way they took the huge budget surplus they were handed and totally trashed it in 8 years tossing America's economy, credit, and potential into the cozmic crapper for generations to come.

Ptoooey on their sick, perverted version of so-called 'conservativism.' They are a pack of chickenhawk borrow-and-spend racist FAIL Flunkies.

[damntexdem]

16. Oh no, the GOP is owed reparations:

for being deprived by the voters of their control of the WH and of Congress.

;-)

(Not that it was the voters who gave them control of the WH in the 00s -- that was the SCOTUS.)

2. I heard this a couple weeks ago

from bloviating shitsack and junkie pedophile Rush Limbaugh - further proof that the GOOPers take their marching orders from a drug-addled bigot.

[GoCubsGo]

9. He has been bloviating about "reparations" for eons.

This is nothing new. Reparations have been one of the right's standard boogie men for at least a decade, and they drag them out whenever they think it can stir up shit among the sheep.

[Cirque du So-What]

10. Yes, he's been bloviating about reparations for a long time

but I wasn't aware that he'd been tying reparations to HCR until a couple of weeks ago. BTW, I do not -under any circumstances - listen to that pilonidal cyst; it all comes from other sources - in this case Media Matters.

3. Whoa whoa whoa Darryl

it was a racist CALLER who was saying that NOT Randi-she and a subsequent caller called it what it was-RACISM and the Florida guy who said it an ill-informed idiot

on edit: either I misread your title or you re-edited it

[bigdarryl]

6. BUT she said she gets all there TALKING POINTS before they say them

and she said this will be the latest one

[SoFlaJet]

7. No Big D

that guy was talking outta his ass

[phleshdef]

4. I HOPE the GOP attempts to push that as their mainstream talking point.

[monmouth]

5. That must be some huge barrel they're digging from..LOL..n/t

[Puzzler]

8. For sake of argument, let's assume that this latest GOP talking point is true

Then why did they just trot it out now?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

11. You mean as if they haven't always been racist?

[Puzzler]

13. No... that's not what I mean

Of course they've always been racist.

By point applies to ANY eleventh-hour anti-HCR argument that they may trot out this weekend.

[Marsala]

12. Sheer desperation

The next talking point is that Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats are disguised Lizardmen and this is their plan to turn America into dinner.

[kestrel91316]

14. So If I wind up benefitting from HCR, does that turn me magically into a "NIGRA"???????

:rofl:

Teh stoopid. It hurts.

[Ken Burch]

15. Owe...I thought they were gonna come out FOR reparations....

although, with them, it'd be reparations for slave OWNERS.
