Caption This: Town Hall Protesters Have No Idea What They're Talking About

Submitted by meg on Fri, 08/14/2009 - 9:25am.

CAPTION THIS

The divisive screaming and hatred that has enveloped the healthcare debate is enough to make you want to curl up in the fetal position. But when our pal GottaLaff at the highly-recommended blog Political Carnival sent us this picture yesterday afternoon, it made our day.

town hall protesters

It also made us wonder: Who is this courageous soul willing to brave the rage of the town hall deathers? Is he a singularly self-aware conservative who sees the error in his party's increasingly crazy ways? Or is he a progressive so fed up with the vitriol that he decided to call the angry mob out for their utter ignorance?

Let us know what you think. Caption this photo by commenting below.

It's obvious that this has been photoshopped. Either the guy is spiderman and doesn't require his fingers to hold that sign or he is holding a smaller sign which is covered over by a larger photoshopped sign that isn't even 3 dimensional looking. I suspect the abolish the government sign as well and one other one based on lighting differences between the majority.

Truther Meets Deathers

"Truthers meet Deathers" - LOL, good one, Cagey!

Unfortunately, us "liberals" are HAVING TO STEP UP into this madness... BEAUSE Pres. Obama treacherously ALLOWED the Righty HATE to METASTASIZE, he (Obama) DID NOTHING to SPEAK UP FOR SINGLE PAYER in the past 8 months, and now the Righty media machine is ALL FIRED UP, duh.

HOW BAD is Obama's DERELICTION of DUTY and BETRAYAL of his "GENUINE reform" pledge??

- SO bad, that the President DOES NOT POINT OUT that 90% of the angry town-hallers SCREAMING "WE HATE SOCIALISM," are scared SENIORS... who WOULD be out on the streets, IF NOT FOR Social Security AND MEDICARE !!

Obama IS NOT EVEN TRYING to make this OH-SO-SIMPLE argument, because he (like his Rahm Emanuel/Goldman-Sachs White House) IS NOT ON THE SIDE of Single Payer, expanded-Medicare, or ANY other GENUINE reform !!!!

(It is worse even than that: IT IS THE RIGHTIES who WANT indigent, elderly, and ill people to GO AHEAD AND DIE already, if those vulnerable folks aren't rich enough to have premium 'health insurance' - Obama co. IS LETTING the Right-Wing Hate-Mongers & corporate lobbyists, PAINT US "liberals" AS BEING THE MURDEROUS GHOULS that they, the Righties, really are !!!)

(proof? Here's uber-right-wing entitled NY multi-millionaire media heir, and PNAC war-lobby co-founder BILL KRISTOL, saying (paraphrase) -
"IF American children have a DEADLY, but treatable, disease, but their parents don't have PREMIUM health care... they should just GO AHEAD AND DIE already."
(What Kristol actually says is "WHENVER I HEAR of a __HEARTLESS ASSAULT__ on AMERICAN SCHOOLCHILDREN, I tend to think IT IS A GOOD IDEA" !!

to keep it short..

Submitted by veritas on Fri, 08/14/2009 - 7:08pm.
to keep it short, Cagey, I didn't even include the link of Doctors from http://www.singlepayeraction.org/ BEING ARRESTED out of Sen. Baucus' "health care 'reform'" Senate FINANCE committee...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKP05AyfRsI&feature=channel
where the Senate Democrats SENT the bill, WITH THE INTENTION of KILLING it.
NOT only did Obama co. PLAY DUMB...
...not only did Obama & Emanuel ALLOW Bacuus to STACK that committee hearings with FIFTEEN industry lobbyists and NO grass-roots or single-payer advocates...
... but after the courageous doctors & nurses of SinglePayerAction GOT THEMSELVES ARRESTED, with IDIOT "DINO" Baucus LAUGHTING and CALLING FOR MORE COPS (see video!), Obama & Emanuel STILL pretended NOT TO NOTICE....!!!

for shame!

THAT betrayal was FIVE MONTHS ago.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED since then, except that Obama has EMPOWERED the Grassley Rethugs, and their Industry bribers/lobbyists, and the WingNuts whose #1 emotion is HATE.....

Look, when some THIRTY PERCENT of American households DON'T EVEN HAVE health care... and a huge chunk of the remaining 70% DON'T KNOW if they'll BE CANCELLED, or have claims denied, when they lose a job or reach a medical crisis; SELLING SOME SORT of Medicare-for-all SHOULD BE THE EASIEST SELL in American Political history!
Instead, EVEN WITH THAT 60 VOTE SENATE MAJORITY the we worked our asses off for, Obama is KISSING Repub ASS, HE'S NOT EVEN TRYING to make the argument for expanded Medicare, much less Public-Option, much less Single-Payer.. MUCH LESS FINDING those American families DRIVEN TO BANKRUPTCY by "CLAIMS DENIED,"....

MUCH LESS is Obama FINDING ONE Family WHO HAD A LOVED ONE DIE, after the "DEATH PANEL" Insurance Executives DENIED CARE !!!

Them's the facts, I didn't make up ONE fact or stat or incident.

Signs

I have no idea about a caption. I am puzzled by the sign on the far right about drug testing. That is a bizarre twist amongst all the other anti-government signs, (leaving aside that brave fellow in the center.)

RE: Signs

Submitted by skrambled on Fri, 08/14/2009 - 10:13am.
I heard some nutter on the radio about that. I think the reference had something to do with federal employees being drug tested regularly, so why shouldn't people on medicare and other federal assistance programs for health care be required to take drug tests. It's some sort of jab at poor people, suggesting that they're poor because they use drugs, and if they were drug tested and failed that we could deny them assistance with health care. Just another America-hating talking point for the nutters.
