I've met Bob Adney. He really is very committed (to what, I have no idea). But, on the heels of his compatriot lying his ass off, Bob is now taking Congress to task for being Congress.
I was reading an article on Fox News this morning that got my blood boiling.
That's kind of FOX's job. That you don't get that, Bob, does not speak well of you.
It was about Democratic Congressman Alan Grayson, entitled Democratic Lawmaker Likens Health Care Crisis to a ‘Holocaust.‘ Rep. Grayson also said, “Republicans want Americans to “die quickly” if they get sick.”
Yep. That's what he said.
To further complicate the matter Rep. Grayson has said that he will not apologize for what he said, “Because I said the truth.”
See, this is Bob's problem. He's not once clarified what Grayson said that was offensive, and should be apologized for. 44,000+ Americans die every year due to lack of health care coverage, and Grayson made that very clear. A preventable sum of deaths, that we take no action to prevent, is indeed a holocaust. The Republicans, in charge of Government for 6 years, took no action. One can only assume that they want this needless death to continue. Do you have a better argument, Bob? No? Didn't think so.
Republicans are calling for him to be punished and a “resolution of disapproval” passed. This is what was done against Congressman Joe Wilson for his infamous “you lie” comment.
Grayson didn't lie. Wilson did.
Democrats are saying, that Grayson doesn’t need to be condemned and
according to an email from Pelosi, “Members of Congress should focus on
the issue at hand: ensuring quality, affordable and accessible health
insurance for all Americans.”
Shouldn't they? Isn't that what Republicans have been calling for, with their lack of any plan even?
This is EXACTLY the kind of crap that makes our Congress such a complete and utter failure.
I'm sorry. I don't remember your post condemning Republicans for wasting time with condemnation of Joe Wilson. What's that? You thought that worth ignoring? Of course you did. Congress is only wasting time when you will lose the argument.
Instead of actually working on issues such as, helping taxpayers,
cutting burdensome regulations, and restoring personal liberties
Congress is arguing like little kids on an elementary school playground.
See the above, Adney.
Honestly, can you imagine if this happening at your place of business?
How old are you? Who do you work for? To me, you seem a puppy. Let's be truthful. In most places of business, such time wasting is almost casual. It is expected as part of the power games. Wasteful? No shit, Sherlock. But you pretend that it doesn't happen as if you have any clue.
Democrats and Republicans sit in DC and find little things to blow out
of proportion in a pathetic attempt to score a few political points.
This is not a Republican or Democrat problem; it’s a Washington DC
problem.
Yes, yes it is, Bob. It's both their damned problems. Your argument is little more than sedition. 'We should eradicate DC'. Can you be more full of shit? Do you have a better suggestion for governance? Come forth with it if you do. But be careful. The Constitution might find you ... something of a traitor. You want the parties to agree? Come up with something they agree on. You won't do that. i know. After all, you still think that the Republicans have a health care plan beyond "don't get sick and die quickly if you do."
Every day that goes by I lose more and more of what little confidence and respect I had for the politicians in Washington.
Adney, rephrased:
Every day that goes by I lose more and more of what little confidence and respect I had for the Constitution. You don't like the people, vote them out. What's that? You can't vote for or against those you can't vote for but others can? You hate the fact that Democracy doesn't serve your whims? Tough shit, kitten. People in New York and Massachusetts vote for people you don't like. But you're not arguing against the people, Bob. You're arguing against the institution. Traitorous words, my friend.
