Discussion for article #231153

Sam Brokeback, relying on ObamaDoesCare, is like Archie Bunker needing a blood transfusion from George Jefferson. What’s really hilarious is the fact that idiot got re-elected.

How Brownback is Using O-Care Funds to Gift Middle-Class Tax Revenue to the 1%.

This is by design.
Perry did this in Texas with Stimulus Funds.

Scorching summers, frigid wind blown icy winters…endless boring vistas and voters who return mendacious, paranoid religious fanatics to office over and over…the question is what is right with Kansas not what is wrong.

“…and transferring funds from other parts of the budget…”

Most people know it as throwing good money after bad. The problem is the Republican economic plan. It doesn’t work.

Kansas deserves this disaster.

That’s the wonderful thing about democracy. The people (collectively) get the government the majority voted for. Kansans voted for Brownback knowing he had thrown the economy into the pits. Same with Scott Walker. There’s an easy way to fix this.

What they’d deserve even more would be the Producer States’ representatives in Congress to tell the reps from Kansas that they’re getting nothing from the federal teat. Their people created this disaster, they should have to deal with the cleanup.

So people will go without medicine so a religious quack, who’s in love with himself, can help balance a budget!
Kansas, when there’s no help from the state in buying granny’s med’s, you can thank Brownstain!

The Urban Dictionary even has definition’s for Brownback, all of which are fitting!

He’s such a ass he went after a kid who he didn’t like what the kid said!

Kansas is a lost cause. They wanted more of the same and they’re going to get it. Let them pray to Jesus for divine intervention and see what that gets them–NOTHING!

“Brownback offered his proposal for closing that hole last week, a mixture of spending cuts and transferring funds from other parts of the budget to fill it.”

Or, you know, raise taxes to a level consistent with what the revenues needed to effectively run a society are. That might help.

“Obamacare is helping Kansas address its fiscal crisis – even if Brownback’s administration seems loathe to admit it.” Small point, TPM, but it is LOATH, not LOATHE. “Loath” is an adjective that means “reluctant,” while “loathe” is a verb meaning “to strongly dislike.”

The Repuk economic plan a total failure

More specifically, the majority of Kansans who bothered to vote voted for Brownback. A lot of voters in Kansas didn’t think it was worth their time and effort.

Seems more like a case of robbing Peter to pay Paul, while claiming no such thing has happened. Now, if Democrats had any brains (oh, why do I bother?), we’d see some ads touting “ObamaCare is saving Kansas from Brownback’s fiscal mismanagement.” Or something like that. But of course, pointing out facts under 50 words is an alien concept to Dems.
