OK - so you go to the doctor and it turns out that a GOP manipulation has caused a removal of meats / sources of iron from your diet - and you now are becoming anemic
- the GOP says " yeah, OK something should be done … tell you what - we will give you a blood transfusion … we will withdraw a quart of blood from your leg and we will transfuse a pint into your arm."
Non-starter.
Assholes. They’re not even pretending anymore.
No snark here whatsoever: The GOP is, by far, the greatest threat to our national security.
By hook or by crook or mass shooters, RepubliKKKlans want people to die.
Robbing Harry to pay Sally has never worked, in this case it’s gambling with help for Children is NOT a very smart move. What the matter with you people and your grime boss.
WJAT KIND OF monsters would use aid for children to fund lep to Puerto Rico. TRULY degusting.
Defunding Obamacare on the backs of Children.
How about telling STUPID to stay home a few weekends to pay for the disaster package Puerto Rico.
Politicizing disaster aid is UNFORGIVEABLE.
Republicans are LOW LIVES.
Just a few days ago, Paul Ryan was complaining about the Senate.
Let’s hold kids’ healthcare hostage so we can gut the prevention and public health funding of the ACA (because preventing disease or having a clinic for people in rural or economically depressed areas have no benefits). These evil fucking pricks.
Why is the GOP hell bent on gutting healthcare?
Because they are a death cult. I’m sure they all jerk off to the scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom where dude rips other dude’s beating heart out of his chest…
So they have to find a way to fund THIS, but yesterday Mulvaney said that the massive tax cuts for the rich they are proposing don’t need to be deficit neutral? He said that they will need some “new deficits” to continue 3% growth.
The evil, hypocrisy and stupidity knows no bounds.
How many lottery winners on Medicaid are there?
That should save a ton of pennies.
I’m actually okay with 1. The second one is fine by me unless they’re defining “winning the lottery” as “I won two bucks on a one dollar ticket,” though the “flog the lazy crap-shooting no-acocunt n-bomb” stereotype optics obviously motivating it makes me want to vomit.
But, of course, those aren’t really the point here, is it? No, it’s the Obamacare sabotage. And hey, what better way to do that than taking kids hostage? Because that’s how you think if you’re a goddamn psychopath.
Just yesterday Paul Ryan wanted to talk about mental health. I guess enough time has passed since Las Vegas that we can dispense with the low-hanging talking points and get back to gutting public health.
Actually #2 makes my blood boil the most.
The cost of enforcing that wkll almost certainly exceed the pennies you might save.
It’s bureaucracy at its worst. There is absolutely no reason for it other than some idiot Repubkican who didn’t do any research but went by his gut wanting to do this.
Not particularly earth shattering, considering that the Repulsive Party is full of so many shits.
- because the extreme right of the GOP emphatically DOES NOT believe that healthcare is a “right” they see it as a privilege - for the privileged
sort of like they see food and shelter and liberty and justice and freedom … - for the privileged
Why do Republicans always want innocent people to suffer and die?
Sandy Hook pretty much sealed the deal that they don’t care about children, or really anyone except rich people. Cartoon villains all the way down. Come to think of it, Skeletor had more compassion than these assholes, and I’m sure Cobra offered a pension plan and full medical.
