For the record, none of the sub-$100 items in that list are actually TVs. They’re things like replacement parts and TV covers.

The key is that she was a NURSE and she had seen people deal with the life & death decisions before and didn’t give a shit until it affected her.

That is the secret, speak out against them but give him a handjob in private. Then, if the candidate shits the bed you go off the public statements, if they are awesome you highlight your voting record.

I’m afraid I agree with you. I mean, she saw this kind of thing as a nurse, probably for years, and she still voted Repugnican, and probably complained about Obama, too, until she got sick and then got fired because she was sick.

As an Asian, I have to say...

Even if it IS them. Craig T Nelson’s “I’ve been on food stamps and welfare. Anybody help me out? No.” is always a depressing classic.

if only she had gotten cancer sooner, maybe then her family wouldnt have voted to kill her. but they probably would have voted to kill her anyways. Compassionate Conservatism and all.

“But I also know that this means that there are WHITE MEN in government who are happy to just cut access to healthcare for millions upon millions of Americans, myself included, in exchange for tax breaks for the wealthy.”

“human life is nothing compared to tax cuts for the rich!”

FUCK YOU CARRIE

Most of these types never get it unless it happens to them. That’s the sad effect of American individualism.

And it’s the same story.

Oh look, another story about a “Good Christian” Conservative to which the concept of empathy is a downright alien concept. Here is my surprised face.

Every fucking time about every fucking issue... unless its their family or friends, they just dont care. To the GOP, empathy is a foreign concept - and its all too clear what they think of foreigners.

I think they are going to museums. But I would prefer them being smashed. Put the video of them being smashed in a museum.

That is what bothers me the most, their willingness to do it regardless of what their constituents wanted or need.

Same old story: Selfish, Republican shithead winds up in a situation where they have to actually use the social benefits which they have heretofore spent so much time and effort railing against. Lightbulb turns on over their head and they realize the value of social programs. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Beyond this individual’s unnecessary and most likely wholly preventable death, the real tragedy is that stories like this won’t make a difference. In the minds of these conservative lawmakers, this man made an active choice to live a life and choose a job that didn’t facilitate having health insurance. If regular…

While I suspect there will be a change overall with the mid-terms, I have a sinking suspicion the GOP dominance won’t be impacted. They get bitched at (rightly so) at town-halls, but still get reelected as they have name recognition in their districts/states and no one can bring themselves to vote against the party.

Goldie didn’t have star all these years? She’s had an Oscar for almost 50 years! But you’ve gotta love Goldie and Kurt getting them together.
