Hey, Joe Lieberman
Rising Hegemon —
Look at the crowd you hang with...good thing you have the scruples of a dung beetle. In the front of the protest, a sign showed President Obama in white coat, his face painted to look like the Joker. The sign, visible to the lawmakers as they looked into the cameras, carried a plea to "Stop Obamunism." A few steps farther was the guy holding a sign announcing "Obama takes his orders from the Rothchilds" [sic], accusing Obama of being part of a Jewish plot to introduce the antichrist. These must have been awesome ...

Thank goodness for government-run health care on Capitol Hill

THANK GOODNESS FOR GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE ON CAPITOL HILL.... About 20 minutes into yesterday's right-wing rally on the Hill in opposition to health care reform, one of the protestors suffered a heart attack. Fortunately, as Dana Milbank reported , medical professionals were able to respond quickly. Medical personnel from the Capitol physician's office -- an entity that could, quite accurately, be labeled government-run health care -- rushed over, attaching electrodes to his chest and giving him oxygen and an IV drip. This turned into an unwanted visual for the speakers, ...

Irony Alert
Daily Kos —
An interesting factoid from yesterday's freak show at the Capitol: By the time it was over, medics had administered government-run health care to at least five people in the crowd who were stricken as they denounced government-run health care. And then the crowd shuffled back to the socialist Metro to go home ...

IL-Sen: The Sun-Times razzes Rep. Mark Kirk for his move to the Right as he seeks to shed his "moderate" label in order to grab teabagger support. In June, he disavowed his crucial vote in favor of a climate bill. Then it came out this week that Kirk wants Palin's support. She is coming to town later this month to appear on the Oprah Winfrey show. We appreciate the political realities Kirk faces. To win, he must appeal to a broad spectrum of voters, including the most conservative. Those pressures forced another moderate Republican out of a special election for a New York congressional seat just last weekend. Leading national ...

At Thursday's tea party march protesting government-run health care, a participant suffered a heart attack about 20 minutes into the proceedings. As Dana Milbank reports, medical personnel from the Capitol physician's office rushed over, attaching electrodes to the man's chest and giving him oxygen and an IV.
The Capitol physician's office, unlike the bills being considered in Congress, is actually socialized health care. Government employs the physicians, and taxpayers help pay their salaries. But despite the presence of so many committed free market activists who so deeply fear the consequences of government-provided health care, no one ...
