Rabid, Racist, Rightwing, Bitter Clinger Lashes Out At Obamacare

Oops! I must have made a typo. I should have written "Obama Voter Lashes Out At Obamacare." Silly me. In fact, this Obama voter sounds almost *gasp* conservative in her views.

But if we with the "Cadillac" health plans have to start paying taxes on our benefits, that's a huge middle class tax increase, and we were promised that wouldn't happen. Rebalancing the pay package doesn't save us from that tax hit — even assuming our employers would reshuffle things. Plus we love our great health benefits, and we were told if we liked them, we'd get to keep them. How is it fair to change the rules on us after we worked so hard to get what we have? The Democrats, including Obama, got elected by saying "middle class" over and over again. They never said they were going to provide for the less fortunate at our expense, and I don't see how they would have gotten elected if they had.

Sigh. If the consequences of an Obama Presidency weren't so disastrous, I would savor mocking people like the good Professor. But I can't, since it was people such as her who swore up and down that Obama was a different breed of cat. And now, we are stuck with this shitheap until 2012.

Thanks for nothing, Professor.

1 The best part:
They could go the other direction, a 100% tax deduction for all medical expenses (including insurance payments).Yes, that would be appropriate. In fact, why not just do that and forget all the other chaotic changes? See how that works out.

Wow, what a novel idea. That we had in Two-Thousand-Fucking-Six! Good God. What the fuck is wrong with these mouth-breathing window-lickers? Did you honestly believe for a fucking second that Obama was so brilliant that somehow he could finance trillions of dollars in new government programs just by raising taxed on 5% of the populace?! She saw Teleprompter Jesus' ability to read a great speech and what little judgment she had went out the window!

Anyone with a fourth-grade education and a double-digit IQ could see through Obama's transparent bullshit. But noooooo, our intellectual betters knew that he was honest. After all, he went to Harvard.

2 Yes, yes she did. 've been sitting here feeling completely cool and calm all evening. But that announcement -- that Obama has won -- gave me chills, made me almost cry. Something big has happened. **** Suck it Ann. Obama walks out on the stage in Chicago. He looks happy. It makes me feel happy enough to laugh out loud. Michelle is wearing a very strange dress, black with glowing redness spreading upward and downward from a black X across the midriff. The little girls look elegant, as if they'd grown much older since we saw them this morning. He compliments McCain. He tells his girls they're getting a puppy. He gives us all credit for his victory. We understand "the enormity of the task that lies ahead." (Yikes!) He's going to listen to us, but he wants us to help him "rebuild this nation." "Let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility." Let's not be partisan and petty. Let's remember Abraham Lincoln. He was a Republican. He faced a nation more divided than it is now. But he reached out to them. And we share a destiny with everyone in the world. "Democracy, opportunity, and unyielding hope." "America can change. Our union can be perfected." Now, he's in a sing-song poetic part of the speech, with the refrain "Yes we can." The crowd catches on and shouts the refrain. "Thank you. God bless you. And God bless the United States of America." Suck it hard.

5 Althouse deserves to be ridiculed for buying into HopeNChange™ as she did. However, nine months into the reality of the Obama administration it's easy to forget just how appealing the belief that Obama's tack to the center was genuine really was. Had Maverick McAmnesty not fumbled the bailout (and, indeed, pretty much <i>everything</i> post-nomination) as badly as he did that appeal probably would have been greatly diminished. At the time, I found that there wasn't much to argue with in Althouse's <a href="http://althouse.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-mccain-lost-me.html">How McCain Lost Me</a> post, even though I personally felt that Obama's background was more than shady enough to ensure that I would vote against him.

6 Doh! Should've previewed it to make the formatting work....

Oh, I am never going to admit that Maverick was anything but a horrible candidate, and I am not trying to reimpose what I know now over what we were hearing back then. BUT, I am amused that so many "smart" people bought the Hope & Change "Moderate/Centrist" pitch, while us racist, dimwitted bitter clingers could see through the foolishness from the start.

8 Yeah I probably should have made it clearer that I was thinking of Jeff's "anyone with a 4th grade education and a double digit IQ could see through Obama's transparent bullshit" line with my reply. It's not that it isn't true, it's just that the "smart" folks were hoping that it was the lefties who were the rubes. Those of us in the "we won't be taken in" camp can laugh at both of them for buying the HopeNChange™ and thinking that being a member of the rubes would be an either/or thing!

(Hah, take that mee.nu formatter!)

9 Re: mee.nu comments, you can use BBCode in the compose box for formatting. Or if you have javascript switched on, there'll be buttons for various special effects, plus one marked "<>" that will bring up a "edit source" window, should you wish to do your HTML tagging the hard way.

And re Althouse and that ilk, IMO the political and chattering classes have a dangerous habit of tuning out what's said in political campaigns (especially on the left) as simply empty rhetoric for the masses. (They've done this before: A lot of people thought Mr. Hitler would be "reasonable" once in a position of power, and then there was that Ayatollah guy... Also note they never give us righties any benefit of the doubt: Elect some Mormon and it'll be hajibs ane prohibition all over again!) Then they get surprised when someone actually starts doing what he said he would.
