Let me get this straight..

We're going to pass a health care plan
written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it,
passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it,
signed by a president that also hasn't read it, and who smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes,
overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and
financed by a country that's nearly broke.







What possibly could go wrong?

The cartoon was kinda funny. Ridiculous, but funny.

The rest of your rant makes no sense whatsoever. I felt like I was reading Glenn Beck's talking points.

Our last president was an alcoholic who did cocains lines off the floor at parties when he was Obama's age. And we let that guy start two wars. Get a grip

This is any different from how government is usually ran? Surely you are not just now surprised.

I agree on both the cartoon and the rant. This same diatribe appears on nearly every conservative online forum out there. Simple cut and paste/regurgitation.

While even I find the what is being implied rather absurd, it is humorous because it is also true, which is key to most humor.

I think I've heard this before, but I can't be sure.

Still funny none-the-less.

True, but Obama has virtually no experience, except for the lyin' part. And he is all style with relatively little substance.

Can you refute anything that was stated in the OP?

Have at it my friend. We'll be waiting.
