Ingraham regurgitates right-wing anti-Kennedy cud: Dems playing 'death card' by pushing health-care reform
By David Neiwert Friday Aug 28, 2009 11:00am

http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/ingraham-regurgitates-right-wing-ant

The right's favorite talking point on Thursday, with Ted Kennedy's funeral dominating the news, was to compare the event to Sen. Paul Wellstone's funeral and kvetch that Democrats were being crudely opportunistic in using Kennedy's death to help push harder for liberal health-care reform.

Laura Ingraham, filling in for O'Reilly on The Factor, was right in step, saying Dems were "playing the death card" and promising that such opportunism would cost them at the polls. Kvetch, kvetch, kvetch.

I think Amanda Marcotte has precisely the right response.

1. Oh, the irony...
SHE is playing the "death card" by even MENTIONING this and is too stupid or dishonest to know. (I'll bet it's the latter...)

3. Laura Ingraham OR the America we knew and loved.
You can't have both.

Stupid and dishonest are killing us.

5. What bullshit-If it'll cost the Dems at the polls then why would a republican asshole like Ingram
Edited on Fri Aug-28-09 02:16 PM by GreenTea
even bring it up....Why Igtam & the republicans know it will only help Democrats with Health care for ALL and at the polls as well, the republican bitch knows this...

Look at these scared fucking republicans trying to dictate policy at a funeral

A great democrats funeral.

Republicans are scared shitless!

They are worried because they won't have their usual media control & censorship.

And that all of Kennedy's fantastic progressive ideas LIKE HEALTH CARE will get air time, by his family, friends and fellow democrats!!

Republicans are so fucking frightened of the truth.

The more said about Kennedy's wonderful work, philosophy & accomplishments the better....

That's who the man, Edward M Kennedy was.

Fuck the republicans and their usual fear & scare tactics!!

13. why would a republican asshole like Ingram even bring it up
Edited on Fri Aug-28-09 04:08 PM by AlbertCat
Because, the base is too stupid to think of it themselves. They have to be told to be outraged. In Truth, they don't even care what goes on at Kennedy's funeral. Any more than they did at Welstone's. Or Reagan's for that matter.

7. She's just a bad person
I find her utterly without redeeming qualities of any kind. I hope she gets cancer of the AIDS of the eye. Just go away.

9. How can I say this with just the right amount
emphasis and feeling in response to the twaddle that this person just subjected everyone who had the misfortune of being near a television at the time. Firstly, you have my sympathies, as you shall never recover that 3 minutes and 24 seconds of your life that was wasted by having listened to that smug repeater of prepackaged lies, and secondly the only proper response would be a heartfelt and hearty "cheneyism" ... and that would be, "Go Fuck Yourself" to the despicable mizz ingraham.

10. Do you think there is just plain old sick jealousy taking place.
How could the Dems have someone give Reagan a run for his money
in the area of pomp and circumstance???

When you get down to it and count Kennedy has had more impact
than Presidents.

17. She's right. It's disgusting to play on people's
emotions and fears for political reasons - for instance, if you were to promote false ideas of liberal Nazism, or death panels... Is that what you mean, Laura?
