I hate being right

Here is what Orin Hatch said about CHIP funding yesterday:

They just gave away all. the. money. to their rich donors on Friday night. They *chose* to fuck up Childrens Health Insurance so that Some rich white dude could have liberty and freedom from the responsibility to the rest of society and all the people who work so hard on $10/hour.

There are no swear words impactful or obscene enough to describe these people adequately. They really are the most vile people.

My governor has been on this issue for months now.

It’s the worst thing Republicans can do right now. They are sociopaths.

Here’s the other thing I’m right about. Republicans want to cut Social Security. Don’t go into denial about it. Social Security has its own funding source but the federal government has been borrowing money from our trust fund and has no intention of paying us back as long as Republicans are in charge. The whole point of blowing a $1.5 Trillion dollar hole in the budget is to point to it to show why Social Security can’t be paid back and cuts must be made.

That’s what they’re going to do.

And you thought it was all about abortion.

Don’t get mad. Get even. Seriously. It’s really important that we stay cool and focused and don’t let ourselves be distracted.

  1. Like you, I have no words, polite or impolite, to describe fully the bottomless contempt I feel for both these sociopaths, and the contemptibly mean and stupid white peasants who keep voting for them.

    I now feel about the latter group much the same way Magneto feels about normal humans.

    As for Hatch, it is a measure of how low these petaQs have dragged our country down, that we are reduced to hoping that THIS scum will be left as President, after Mueller’s legal decapitation strike (Ascended Madoka willing) takes out Trump, Pence, and Ryan in one swell foop. 😡

      Future tombstone: “Here lies the USA, dead of terminal White Stupidity”

      • Rubio’s certainly audacious – he had the nerve to do this a mere two days after he disavowed any intent to go after Medicare and Social Security during the floor debate.

  2. Roy Moore won’t give them this. But people are too stupid to know that there.

    • Given Moore’s proclivities, you’d think he’d want children to be disease-free (if only as a matter of self-preservation).

      • Speaking of Da Judge, another of his old “girlfriends” turned up… 😈

  3. Argh. Didn’t think of that–Social Security, I mean. They’re just trying to dismantle everything before Trump explodes.

    Heard today Lindsey Graham called on the Pentagon to evacuate all US military dependents from South Korea ASAP. Most terrifying thing I’ve heard all week…
