The Bush twins have health insurance so why should he care if millions of American kids go uninsured? George Bush is a chump-ass motherfucker who belongs before the Hague on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Too bad Speaker Botox insists, "Bush isn't worth impeaching." You have to wonder what he's got on her.
Posted by Christopher at July 16, 2007 11:52 AM"Orrin Hatch and Charles Grassley are in disbelief", well welcome to the party, idiots. Lots of GOPers are just now starting to realize what most of us have known for years....Bush and Cheney care about what Bush and Cheney (and Rove) care about and don't give a sh*t about anybody else, GOP or Dem. And now that Voinovich has gone potty mouth on the Bush Admin, he'll find out the surprise also. I mean, when a US GOP Senator comes out and says Bush "f*cked up" the War, I think that it's pretty certain that Bush, in fact, did f*ck up the War.

Posted by tempus at July 16, 2007 12:44 PMT2 it's especially absurd to watch the supposed "disbelief" ont the part of GOoPer senators as they watch this psychopath play preledenter.
Hey GOoPers, you created this fucking monster! What are you gonna do about it? Don't all step to the microphone (let alone the clerk's desk) at once. Disgusting, cretinous GOoPer posers. And WE'RE the traitors....
And I think the combined "war" (occupation) costs are now $12 billion a month. But why quibble, right kids? No health care for you poor little losers, what kind of entrepeneurs are you gonna make? You can't even get health care for yerselves---little liberal failures!

Do they even have jobs or are they still sucking up taxpayer dollars for their birth control prescriptions?
As for the uninsured kids in America, I'm sure if they'd just pull themselves up by their bootstraps, give up their education and go to work at Taco Bell, or better still, sign with the military, then they'd have health coverage. Whether Bush authorizes the money for health care for kids or not, we end up paying for it anyway, so what's the difference? In Chicago, the uninsured go to Cook County Hospital, and we pay for that through local taxes.
Posted by ann at July 16, 2007 01:26 PMDecent health care for the young and the ability to be educated operate synergistically, hand in hand; they are never mutually exclusive as you can't have one without the other.
When kids are in good health they learn; when they learn they want to overthrow fascism and the white oligarchy. That cannot be permitted.
My mother was a young woman in the University of California system when Ronald Reagan and his Libertarian hordes destroyed public education in California, by essentially commencing with its privatization. They have never looked back.
What was once essentially a public social entitlement has now become the sole purview of the rich.
High taxes are one thing, but the more sinister motive is simple:
The stupid and the uneducated vote GOP.
Those with a modicum of education seek to destroy it.
Posted by Jill Bains at July 16, 2007 02:02 PMWhen one reads things like this Bush veto of a kids health insurance program threat, one realizes that it is sad the American system can never construe an accountability, with a gravitas remotely equal to the task.
Can these people ever be held accountable in a way equal to their crimes?
One would oppose death by lethal injection- not on the grounds of a moral opposition to capital punishment-but because, even that, would not be enough.It would be too merciful.
The Bush death state starts to give even capital punishment a good name, or at the very least start to rethink it.
There can't ever be quite enough justice here to pay them back.
And that is why you will vote for Hillary or Obama and support the Democratic party.
Damn straight on that!
Israel tells Hillary to nuke Iran.
Hillary nukes Iran.
She becomes the most popular president of all time.
She pardons Dick Cheney for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Damn straight on that!
