So sick of the lies the fucking Rs spew about Obamacare/Healthcare in general

CNN & MSNBC hosting the R assholes this morning, allowing them to spread their lies about healthcare.

On Planned Parenthood: "We don't want federal funds paying for abortions." Did Wolf bother asking if federal funds were currently being used to fund abortions? Guess.

One asshole compared the R bill to what Russia went through "when they moved to a market economy. They all had government healthcare, but they couldn't afford food. Now, they are allowed to choose."

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick, you can't make up this shit!

Media has to pretend that this isnt true.

Some believe that not until republican voters are harmed by republican policy, will they change and stop voting stupidly.

I dont agree, I think they will vote against their own survival right up to the bitter end. Their hatred is stronger than they survival instinct, if that is possible.

I wonder if there are any psychological studies on that, like tests.

Put a rank and file republican in a room, tell them they can eat but only AFTER they say, and god damn mean it, the following:

"I love all people no matter their color or who they love. I think black people are equal to white people in every way and would love if my daughter married a black man or woman"

If it comes down to starve or say that, how long do they hold out, how long do they starve before they say it?
