Who's "Un-American?"

When House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested that those protesting Obama's national healthcare plan at town hall meetings were "un-American," it was worth noting not only liberals' condescencion, but just how wrong she was.

Krugman is such an asshole.

[romeshomey]

"promote the general Welfare"

This does not mean to PROVIDE the general welfare, it simple says to promote it, like telling you to brush your teeth so you don't get cavities, while its still up to you whether or not you want to brush your teeth, they are just PROMOTING the general welfare. Otherwise they would just brush your teeth for you whether you like it or not.

I'll brush my own teeth, thanks....

Paul Krugman is a god damned moron. I genuinely hopes he is stricken with some kind of horrible disease.

2:37 To answer the implicit rhetorical question: Yes, it is because of Obama. Two wars was under Bush. Bailout was under Bush. Medicare Part D was under Bush. No Child Left Behind was under Bush. No outrage during Bush. Obama gets sworn in, Tea Parties kick off. Now, whether this is because of Obama's blackness or his party affiliation: Both are moronic reasons to oppose him. Either way, the tea party is a moronic movement.

That's a wonderful strawman right there buddy. Yup. I believe doctors shouldn't ever be held accountable.

And Bush and tort reform is like saying No Child Left Behind reformed the Department of Education. =P

I'd also like to know where you got your number right there, and why you feel I should continue this discourse with you if you can't be bothered to actually type out the words "two" and "you" (sorry ahead of time, but that's a pet peeve of mine. =P)

Yes, nevermind that he railed against the slave trade repeatedly, had a love affair with one of his slaves, and bought so many of them and spent so much money educating, clothing, and sheltering them like they were all middle class citizens he nearly went bankrupt.

Shipping people back to Africa maybe? Yeah, where they can just be sold right back into slavery by their chieftains.

If you truly believe in what America should be, then you would not support either party. I myself am a Libertarian (like Ron Paul) I study the true intent of the constitution, and it pains me to watch this ignorant generation spit on this great countries foundation.

Only extremists say liberals support terrorists... just like extremest liberals say that republicans want to execute homosexuals and that that 9/11 was an inside job. both sides are corrupt.

Actually I did look it up she gave a statement that I thought was clear but the right went bat shit about it she then clarified her statement and said exactly what I said.If you dont think librals support terrorism then god damit when ur fuvkin crowd says it u ought to call them out 4 it.I think the right has lost sight of what america is supposed to be they seem to think that captolism is governence it is not.I DO NOT THINK THE GOV SHOULD DO EVERYTHING ME.

[youngbono18]

Actually, she said that VERBATIM. look it up... and I dont think liberals are supporters of terrorists, and whoever does is an idiot as well... I just think liberals have lost sight of what America was supposed to be, and they rely on the govt to do everything for them.

I myself stand by the constitution.

Look what quietly taking up the butt has gotten us!

Even the insurence companies admit that frivolus lawsuits only account forives 0.1% of the cost of insurence.Also I thought one of bushe's great achievments was tort reform.But hey if a doc takes out your gaul blatter when you were there for a visectime(happened 2 my uncle)u shouldnt be able to sue.

[chrisgalizia]

If you watch fox like troll u would think that but nancy never actually said anyone at the town halls is unamerican.What she actually said was that the tactic of shouting down people and stoping civil debate is unamerican and i agree with her.but dont actually watch the clip its much more fun to watch hannity paraphrase and distort the what she said.Gets more ratings.Oh and when people on the left were called traitors and told they were aiding terrorism for critiqing the war did u feel the same!
