This is the week health care reform finally became law. True, it doesn’t include everything I would have liked to see in it (What, no internment camps for radio hosts with Oxycontin monkeys on their backs? Just kidding.), but it’s a great start.
Progressives are in a celebratory mood, as much for seeing the president they worked hard to elect finally finding his groove as for the reform bill itself. There have been toasts and jokes aplenty this week, including the guy who said he had called his Tea Partyin’ aunt to tell her he’d been appointed to her death panel. And yes, the right-wing loonies are getting dangerous (see more about that in our next full column), but I admit it’s been kinda fun watching the anti-reform crowd pitch its collective fit like a million bawling babies with dirty diapers.
Here is a video that’s been making its way around the Internet the past few days. It shows the stark contrast between the progressive attitudes and forward thinking that got Pres. Health Care elected, and the stale, bitter ass-backwardness of what passes for thought on the right these days. Enjoy, and have a great weekend.

“maked Japans attack”?
“assinated”? (Does that mean an attempted assassination that only hits the person in the ass?)
Frankie boy, you and all your rightwing, slobbering prehistoric goobers lost, and lost big, so you can all writhe around in your own fetid, angry shit till the end of time for all any of us sane people care. But dammit, learn how to friggin spell. I’ll say it again: God-DAMN, you’re an idiot.
Education is something important to both the left and the right. Everyone in the country except for a few backwards rubes can grasp the necessity of it. We wouldn’t trust lawyers who couldn’t properly read and write; same goes for doctors, tax consultants, professors, etc. So yes, Mr. Griffin, it’s hard to take someone seriously who doesn’t understand the fundamentals of proper spelling and grammar, since it generally means he or she is uninformed and uneducated in most other respects as well. I don’t mean to be singling you out; just noting that Mr. Patrick has a point.
Boy oh boys oh boy, look like I forgot to take my meds AGAIN!
So let me aporogize for all the dumbass comment I continues to made. I sory for acting like a moron and being such a all-arround douchebag.
If it make you feels any better, I know I a asshole when I not on my medicinations. Hell I a asshole even when I AM on my medicatations! (he he)
But I am especially stupid when I skip my meds because in adition to being an asshole, I also a whiny, uninformed, right-wing redneck stealing all my idea from Crazy Glenn Beck and trying to pass off my hysterrical nonsense as pollitical insights.
And I can’t spel for shit!
Anyways, see you at the Tea Klux Klan Partys! Yaaaaayyyyy!!!!!

Frank, you’re missing the point. The point is, your opinions are unbalanced and assinine. For example, you compare the health care bill to the day the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Really? You don’t say!
When you write something as patently ridiculous as that, you should at least pay attention to a few basic rules of spelling and grammar. Since you don’t, you come off sounding not only uninformed, unhinged and stupid, you also come off sounding like someone who didn’t make it past the 5th grade. Which, for all we know, you didn’t.
No, this is a purely non-partisan issue, Frank.
If a “liberal” used poor grammar and spelling — and said something as utterly ridiculous as comparing the health care bill to Pearl Harbor — I would take this person to task as well.
I’m equally certain that intelligent, educated conservatives would call you an unbalanced dingbat for comparing the health care bill to Pearl Harbor.
So would intelligent centrists. And libertarians. And moderates. And those who don’t care about politics at all.
That’s the beauty of it. The depth of your stupidity crosses all partisan lines and unites us all.
Funny you should mention “out of ideas,” Frank.
Your idea, if I understand it, is to compare a piece of health-care legislation with a surprise military attack that killed 2,400 servicemen and women, injured another 1,300, sank four battleships, and initiated U.S. involvement in World War II, where more than 400,000 more Americans were killed.
Obviously, you’re the one who is out of ideas. Since you can’t bring any facts, reason or clarity to the health-care debate, you just throw out whatever insane thought happens to scramble out of your barely functioning brain.
Bad spelling and 3rd grade grammar is the least of your problems.
In addition, allow me to add the following to this fine and important discourse:
Frank Griffin has his head up his ass.
I hope this adds clarity and context to the debate. See you all Thursday at the Princeton Club!
