The GOP is stupid.

The GOP's supporters are stupid.

This is stupid.

Immediately find your nearest tree if you think this is logical and apologize to it for wasting the oxygen its making.

After you have done that, please apologize to the rest of the world for being fleeced by a bunch of assholes who have no intention of ever making life better for anyone but themselves.

Well, it seems "size matters". At least, it matters to some who lack the ability to see beyond "This is smaller than that. So, it is better."

(Which is exactly the same message I've been trying to sell to Mrs. Bus Driver)

The bill’s brevity, after all, was a point of pride for the White House. During a news conference Tuesday, press secretary Sean Spicer gestured to two stacks of paper, one towering and one svelte.

“Look at the size,” Spicer said, pointing first to a stack representing Obamacare and then to the Trumpcare pile. “This is the Democrats. This is us.”

(The number of pages — a function not only of words, but text size, paper dimensions and margins — has been criticized as a poor shorthand for a proposed law’s transparency or elegance.)

Ahh, the old "I may have a needle dick, but I have a sewing machine ass...." argument

It may be short. But, at least it's thin.

It is important to cover all the bases like healthcare for lottery winners. I think what we are seeing is the fact that the emperor (the GOP in general, not just Trump) has no clothes (they don't have a clue what they are doing). Ryan has been seen as a policy wonk, apparently not. Back to a point I made elsewhere, where is the beef in this bill, like how much it costs?!?

That is what I always want to know. What does it cost and who pays for it? At some point, the CBO will answer those questions, which is why this thing is being moved along so quickly, after ObummerCare's November passage was deemed to be grabbing us by the ears and ramming, jamming, cramming and slamming it down our throats until the lousy pervert name calling democRATS clenched their weak fists, screamed out a rapturous "HEALTH CARE FOR ALL!!!" and blew it all over our respective faces.

Republicanism: Noun. Definition: A mental illness characterized by the inability to think of anything else but the overwhelming fear that somewhere, somehow, a poor person is not living in utter misery. This can have a gradual onset, but once it starts there is usually no cure. The end stage of the disease is characterized by obsessing over health insurance for lottery winners.

So they've lowered the standards of comparing legislation to a visual that works at a primate level.

Next up, an assessment of climate change science by walking outside with no pants on with the claim your scrotum stays tight.

I'm beginning to wonder if Spicy likes being publicly humiliated. Takes all kinds....NTTAWWT. I imagine God making a sadist for every masochist and then rolling the dice on whether or not they hook up....just for shits and giggles.

Interesting.

That's funny!

 

[SloopJonB]

Interesting.

Looks like the people who voted this bunch in are going to get the rude awakening they so richly deserve.

An interesting article, although it seems that residents of the United States can be divided on the basis of whether facts really matter to them.

Facts? What the fuck are facts? http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39186644
