this would be great if they weren't both over 65 and drawing both medicare and social security checks. hypocracy or just plain stupidity? discuss.

Didn't you hear? The founding fathers created Medicare. No wait, actually Jesus came up with it first.

@carrie0123210 the f word? like fuck you?

Sometimes, I wonder if people know how badly they're embarrassing themselves. If I felt strongly enough, I might sing a few words, but then I would stop pretty fast as people started staring at me.

The sad part is, I have no idea what kind of message they're trying to send. What exactly is it that they want me to hear?

From what I gather, they don't like Communism and they want to travel back in time to the 1780's...

@carrie0123210 well for the fun of it I will respond anyway

"it has not been proven that nicotine is addictive, the same with cigarettes causing emphysema" -Rush Limbaugh

"Obama will invade Pakistan" -Hannity the manatee

“How can carbon dioxide be poison when it is naturally occurring and trees need it to grow?” -this just shows how stupid Glenn Beck is

“I checked. We have never had a president sworn into office without a Bible.”- and this would be the third lie you asked me for. many more

[hempartist420]

@carrie0123210 yeah as if Glenn, Hannity, and Rush don't have their paychecks to look after, you've ignored the fact that they get caught lying on a regular basis

[sactowncr1minal]

even though their both on ss and medicare!

[KIINZEY]

The constitution never said that health care was forbidden. and really... really, macaroni...

[shadowwbn]

@L8nitedave DUDE MACARONI?? MACARONI?? WTF, dont bash a pasta that is loved by 'almost' everyone. What did Macaroni do to you? If your going to remark about what is in their head instead of a brain, say something like this

"The hamster running the wheel in place where their brain should be just commited suicide and left a note which reads, "NNNOOO dumber than Bush!! Dumber than Palin!!! NONONONOOO, I cant live like this *commits suicide*, FREEDOM!!!!!!!!"

[shadowwbn]

First, you two dumbasses need to get a dictionary and know what is socialism and communism. Next, you two need to get a dictionary, thesaurus, hell a 5th grade english teacher to read and explain the constitution. His Healthcare bill IS CONSTITUTIONAL. Its even in the first paragraph you dumbasses, and mentioned again on two more occasions. Voices in millions, seriously, racist specialed dumbasses dont count, so your numbers are in thousands. Seriously, go back to high school or STFU!!

Somebody made a good point, that the Tea Baggers are like adult children. Watch the videos of Victoria Jackson, Michelle Bachman they both have child like voices. Voight. Ben Stein, Dennis Miller all have similar traits too, melancholy, slow or cognativly depressed. They share common traits as downsyndrome people do.
