What a jerk, how dare he insult the Republicans. Doesn't he know that he's supposed to compromise every single one of his principles for the sake of bipartisanship?

Apparently, he never learned the meaning of fairness! The stupid knuckle dragging idealogue...What? You want me to apologise? But I'm a Republican!

So after Obama leaves office in either 2012 or 2016, are we going to get this person to run for President?

If I had money (which I don't because of how badly the republicans fucked over the economy) I'd contribute to him. Damn! What a flawless plan on the part of the Republicans!

I can't wrap my head around just how hypocritical the Republicans are in this case. Seriously, how can anyone maintain such thorough doublethink?

Hey Republicans!, not you Amaranth the stupid one,
Couple things here, this guy was given 5 minutes to give a speech. He went through official channels to get that five minutes. Unlike Wilson, who interrupted the fucking President with a shouted insult during his speech. If you can't see the difference between saying what you want to during YOUR speech, and yelling an insult and disrupting another persons speech, I pity you.
Secondly, don't like what this guy is saying? Think he is unfairly misrepresenting your plan, please give us a breakdown of how your plan isn't like that. Please show us and point out in your plan where it will make sweeping changes to the state of health care in this country and ensure that everyone gets the care they need.
One thing I didn't like thought was Grayson's use of the term holocaust. I tend to think that word gets used a bit to cheaply in some situations and then people turn right around and do there utmost to apply in in situations where it does apply.

The thing is, that is their plan, but he exposed it in a way everyone can see that it's retarded, rather than the republicans PR the shit out of it first

So, Sarah Palin can make up lies about "death panels" but someone from the other side can't point out deaths that are actually happening due to our shitty healthcare?

Between him and Anthony Weiner, I'm starting to like this "Democrats with a backbone" movement. You forgot Barney Frank (D-Mass). He was the one who asked that woman what planet she spent most of her time on during that town hall meeting.

Millions of people will die from this in a matter of years. I wouldn't have used "Holocaust," but not because I thought it was inaccurate.
Mostly just because Godwin's Law and the oversaturation of "Nazi" comparisons has taken almost all meaning from the words. Not the actual history, but the terminology.

I'm just another person who didn't like his using the word, since it really seems to cheapen the real Holocaust AND what's going on right now, and I'm a mofo without insurance/money for insurance/good health. "Systematized murder" is a little more general/less bad memory inducing but fits just as well.

And Anthony Weiner as well. It'd be scary if Weiner put a stick in the GOP's eye....
