Rockefeller only held out the shoe: Rick Santorumâs replacement as dumbest man in the Senate is the one who stuck his foot into it.
The sooner they realize God has nothing to do with it, the better.
I know it is kinda confusing Senator, but try to focus and see if you can follow along ,
He was not saying that you are a racist because you oppose the health care program.
but he was saying that, based upon a consistent pattern of behavior, it appears that you have a strong racially based opposition to anything and everything related to this president.
Behold Ozymandias! Behold he of wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command!
Ron Johnson is not a racist. Heâs a jerkoff.
I think itâs very odd that the opposition in this instance claims that ACA is âan assault on our freedomsâ but the Patriot Act wasnât!! Boy, thatâs a real head-scratcher! Ensuring that all Americans have access to affordable health care vs. unfettered power to spy, kill, detain, torture, and keep all of it clandestine.
Yeah, the ACA is destroying freedom.
What Big Johnson told Jay after the mics were shut off â⌠and you people (Jay and Barack) should know your place and accept the natural order of things. Thereâs going to be some changes in here come NovemberâŚâ
I donât know why Democrats tolerate the GOP saying things like âtheyâre assaulting our freedomsâ and âdestroying our countryâ and âcommunist fascistâ and the like⌠and yet back down from saying something as simple as âyour party is motivated by racism, hate and moneyâ - a statement which, unlike most GOP claims, there is actually supporting evidence for.
You can call me Ronny, you can call me Johnny, you can even call me Johnson, but ya doesnât have ta call me racist.
I didnât think Senators were supposed to address each other in the first person. Something about decorum.
Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
I am not going pretend that I know if race played a role, but if Democrats had refused to work with a Repug POTUS during a financial crisis, their patriotism would have been impugned just like it was after 9/11 if a Democrat didnât want to go along with their radical changes to the Constitution when the âPatriotâ Act was rammed through Congress, and the unnecessary war in Iraq was provoked.
Ron Johnson is attempting to use âoutrageâ merely as a political tactic to score points. He is failing.
âHow dare you look at my past statements regarding this president, which, out of context, would be racist, and use them to infer that I am a racist.â
Itâs okay to call the president a socialist Muslim terrorist who hates America and passed a law that assaults freedoms and by the way weâre not really sure he was born here but how DARE you call me a racist.
Someone get me my fainting couch and smelling salts; Iâm going to feign outrage!
If every election of the past three decades (include this years) your party uses the âbigotry, misogyny, homophobia and xenophobia cardâ to gin up the base â he should be grateful thatâs all Jay implied
God musta caused his mother to drop him on his head as a childâŚseveral times apparently. Either that or he fell out of the Stupid Tree and hit every branch on the way downâŚ
âThatâs right, you wimp! Come straight out and say it since we all know itâs true!â
OK. Here it comes.
Why you wanna be dissinâ jerkoffs.
