TRASH TALKING CHUCK GRASSLEY

The other day President Obama claimed that some of his Republican friends were “diligently working to see if they can come up with a plan that could get both Republican and Democratic support”. Among those so-called Republican friends was Sen. Charles Grassley the ranking Republican on the Finance Committee.

A day later this so-called friend was fear mongering in Iowa claiming people had every right to fear because the House bill contained counseling for end-of-life. Senator Charles Grassley can now be referred to as “Chuck the Mendacious” for it is an outright lie that the Obama Administration is planning a government program that determines when the plug gets pulled and Chuck knows it – hell he has access to all the proposals.

You can also call him “Chuck the Idiot” for this pathetic character from the mid-west suggests we ought to “have counseling 20 years before you’re going to die.” How utterly stupid for a sitting Senator to make such a remark given the reality that tomorrow is guaranteed to no one but then it’s characteristic of Republicans who prefer to be detached from reality. Ignorance is bliss for this tribe.

Chuck Grassley doesn’t really deserve the title “Senator” but while “Chuck the Mendacious” or “Chuck the Idiot” is more appropriate at bottom Chuck Grassley is nothing more and nothing less than a high priced huckster for the health insurance industry that paid him over two million dollars to make sure their profit making scheme and his are never reformed.

Other notable comments from this clown are that “Government is not a competitor, it’s a predator”. If he really believes that line which gets applause from the know nothings in the Iowa audience why is he even in government? Indeed someone should ask this rabid Republican why governments are instituted among then refer him to Jefferson’s Declaration. The reality seems to be that government is a predator only when people like Chuck the Hired Huckster for the health insurance industry are in government instead of behind bars for profiting by spreading fear and instability in this once great Republic.

Chuck doesn’t want public funds for abortion included in any health care bill either. A rationale approach would be for the IRS to add the following question to the tax form: Do you favor or oppose public funding of abortion. Those who favor it will have their taxes altered to include the cost of publicly funded abortions and those who oppose will have their taxes altered to pay the cost for 18 years of each unwanted pregnancy. It would be a win-win for everyone. Even watching sleaze balls like Chuck slither through a response would be worth the proposal.

So much for one of Obama’s “Republican friends”. Given the stark contrast between the mediocre intelligence of the last president and the superior intellect of the current president one wonders how the former was able to get some bipartisan support for reducing taxes on the wealthy and waging a war against humanity while the later can’t figure out that historically Republicans have never reformed anything that benefited the public interest.

Perhaps it’s time for Barak Hussein Obama to know the difference between being a community organizer who brings diverse groups together to produce a result for the common good and being the President of the United States and as such is responsible for insuring that the common good is attained with or without the support of those groups diametrically opposed to the common good and now is the time for Barak Hussein Obama to remember which one he is. The future of this nation depends on it.

Time for President Obama to propose one health care reform legislation that will be in the best interests of the common good, inform the Democratic members of Congress that this is the legislation they will introduce and as Democrats this is the legislation they will support. He should then inform those who oppose it should not count on being financially supported by the Democratic National Committee. Have the Senate come to an agreement, take a vote and give the people real health care reform and fuck the Republicans and their mob.

Once the public experiences the results of a real health care reform that made them feel better off than they do today they’ll realize that they had nothing to fear after all except fear itself and theoretically the politicians that pandered to their fears and perpetuated their ignorance would disappear into the dustbins of history when their mob becomes better off by actions taken in the present moment starting with replacing the current health profit system by a health “care” system and not a watered down health care system because that won’t silence the mob or the political ideology of extremists and their representative that put profit before people like Chuck Grassley.
