House Republicans Finally Try To Take Your Health Insurance Today
Now that everybody has forgotten the Tucson Massacre -- whenwasthat, anyhow? -- House Republicans will finally fulfill their destiny today by impotently voting to repeal Health Care Reform. At this very moment, they're "debating" on the House floor, holding up some old Ross Perot and Tea Party charts/signs and getting ready for easy passage of the bill. Why do they hate your health insurance so much? Because they believe in FREEDOM , the Jonathan Franzen novel nobody actually read (except House Republicans, on the first day of Congress this year). And to be fiscally responsible, the GOP Congress simplyneedsto add another $701 billion to the deficit, by repealing Obamacare. As for the half (or more) of all Americans who have "pre-existing conditions" that would keep them from buying medical coverage under the GOP's repeal of Health Care Reform, isn't it also true that more than half of Americans voted for Barack Obama? Let's see how those people like dying in a pool of their own blood/urine in the halls of an overcrowded emergency room, ha ha. (The House repeal of Health Care Reform will not actually matter at all as the Senate will not do any such thing and Obama would veto it anyway.)[ USA Today / ABC News ]Chinese President Hu Jintao is in Washington today to survey some of his country's corporate holdings.

There is quite a market for that one! Many police officers and old skool porn stars would pay big money for such a fantastic quality upper lip masculinity multiplier.

You are not nearly as equal as our new Corporamericans, what with your soft insides that are so susceptible to diseases and such. Plus, you need a lot more speech in your bank account before any lobbyists might consider your dumb cause/existence.
