51. Why yes. That molecule is "moron biparticide."
I was looking at the .pdf file this morning, and man is it a lying-ass piece of... well, let's just say that it reflects the values of its creators quite well.

The graphics are there for a very important reason: the Republican Party is having difficulty drawing its master plan out past nineteen pages of graphics and text, including the front and back covers.

I think I actually drew blood as I looked at these graphs:



See anything unusual there? Yes, it's as if the trillions of dollars blown straight up Dick Cheney's skirt never existed. The Bush years were, according to those graphs, fiscally sound and unexceptional. I'll bet the price of the Gulf War that the price of the Gulf War is not included in those graphs, as the *resident always made sure to break the law by leaving the cost of the war out of his budget requests, to be funded as an emergency measure outside of the normal appropriations process.

They're still playing that game, and hoping nobody notices. I hope someone reads this, takes the hour and a half needed to verify my guess, and tacks 'em to the fucking wall with it.

13. Here are the details
Reforms Medicare and Medicaid: Let the elderly and poor die if they can't pay the doctor.

Affordable Access to Affordable Coverage: If you can't afford coverage, you can afford to die.

Limits Federal Spending: So that we can increase executive pay and bonuses.

The funniest part of this design is that there is only one thing that's blocking "LIMITS FEDERAL SPENDING" and "UNIVERSAL ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE COVERAGE"-- the "REPUBLICAN ROAD TO RECOVERY"

Did they mean to do that?

20. Whoa, slow down there!
That's a bit much to glom onto all at once! This is gonna take some time to digest, analyze and comment on. Woooo doggies, that's some plan! I mean, wow. It's almost suspicious how they came up with such a comprehensive plan so quickly. This has probably been in the works for minutes if not hours.

Let me try now:

Step 1: Tax cuts for the overrich.
Step 2:
Step 3: Economic recovery for everyone!

Ooooh, my head is spinning.

21. "Universal Access to Affordable Coverage"... lol
as long as you can pay... and pay much more for coverage than with a socialized form of healthcare.

What don't you republicans understand. There is no need for expensive private heath care insurance. Go make you money another way.

39. Republicans think they lost the elections because....
They weren't conservative or republican enough. They really have no clue whatsoever how badly the last 8 years of republican government have been for the country. They obviously believe their own propaganda they put out for reasons why things got so shitty during their republican government.

With their latest gimmick, it just confirms that they are completely disconnected from the American People and they have no idea what they are talking about.

43. I just find it funny that one day after Obama answers a reporter's question ...
Edited on Thu Mar-26-09 07:53 PM by ColbertWatcher
... about why he didn't immediately respond publicly with: "I'd like to know what I'm talking about before I speak.".

And, yet, the very next day, the GOP release what they call their "alternative" to Obama's budget.

But, it's not ready yet! It's not complete. Boner even said it was just a blueprint!

I don't think it has to do with their denial that they lost the election, I think it's because they're still in their bubble!

It's amazing!

or so I've heard. Seriously.

I wonder if it will also show who's fighting it. That certainly would help...
