lot of shit sandwiches being served up today

The GOP shit sandwich salesmen are serving up fried DonTCare, sauted DonTCaer, baked DonTCare, grilled DonTCare. But no one is buying their shit sandwiches. Have you noticed that they talk fast as they tell us all the wonderful benefits of buying their DonTCare?

We'll get freedom of choice. We can choose to go broke buying it, or we can do without. Or we can buy a cheap policy that provides band-aids and aspirins, but not much else. And we'll have access. Yessiree! That access stuff is a big big talking point. But by now, "access" has been poo-poo'd by interviewers with the famous Bernie Sanders come-back on that.

But my favorite is the choice sales pitch. We can choose the coverage that we need. Only problem is, I don't know what I'll need tomorrow, next week, next month, next year. I could get colon cancer. Guys could get prostrate cancer. Kids could break an arm or a leg falling off the jungle jim. We could be in a car accident. No one plans or knows ahead what healthcare they will need in the future.

Good grief, a high school student could poke holes in all their stupid arguments. They make me want to puke.

... and the cost of Phenergan just went up 1,000%!

However, you will get a tax break if you make more than $1m this year. See. Trump fixed it.
