If Obamacare becomes law, the strategy will be to keep the cancer from spreading before you have a chance to remove it.
Luckily, Obamacare basically doesn’t come into effect until 2013, making it a perfect 2012 campaign issue.
There’s only a small window before a new entitlement becomes politically infeasible to get rid of.
Oh, I thought “Allah Akbar” was Ackbar’s title after being promoted from admiral.
I think the lesson we’ll take away from the finale of Lost is that deep down we’re all the smoke monster.
I’d like to enforce with our kid that just because you like a show doesn’t mean you watch it over and over, but SarahK is a bad example.
Bill Nye the Science Guy only has a bachelors in engineering. Hmm… that means I’m qualified enough to be a Science! Guy myself…
I very much enjoy Science! and often use it in my work, but I just don’t have a white lab coat.
The School House Rock episode of how this bill became a law is going to be very confusing.
Government only gets bigger. The only time a government gets smaller is when it collapses.
Push cons enough, eventually they’ll make a Heinlein-type society that defines success on how many hippies starve to death.
Watched New Moon RiffTrax with my folks. If you were curious, my dad is firmly Team Jacob. Quoteth the old man: “I like the Indian kid better than that sickly, pale looking guy.”
I thought “Democrat” was an obscene word for a homosexual. If not, why do they not like people referring to the “Democrat Party”?
We really should work a bit on seeing if we can move the left from parasitism to more of a commensalism.
Is anyone willing to argue that the hillbilly boyfriend subplot in 24 is not the absolute worst subplot in the history of fiction?
Stupak kinda sounds like a quick dinner option you’d bring while camping.
Forcing Americans to have to pay for abortions is pro-abortion and not pro-choice.
Pro-choice means giving people the choice not to be involved with abortion in any way.
This is the sort of day I wish I had a big ‘stache so no matter what happens I can always say, “At least I still have my mustache.” But I don’t even have that.
You know, if someone hadn’t shouted something at Barney Frank, this never would have happened.
That rights are an evolving, changing thing is a scary concept.
Obama seems to think the American people are too stupid to know what’s good for them, but in his defense they did elect him.
It’s going to be so much fun to finally find out what’s in the bill!
I think the GOP may have an issue or two for November.
In regards to Obama, the time for talk is never over. I bet he talks in his sleep. Poor Michelle.
Another reason to use “Democrat” as an adjective: It saves two characters on Twitter.
Oh well, time to start working on blocking the next giant new entitlement.
Will be a rallying cry that every Republican elected in the House will be a vote to fire Pelosi as Speaker.
Finding out the actual costs of this is going to be an adventure.
This all reminds me: Tax Day is coming up. I’ve got a big check to write that will be frittered away in about a millisecond.
Mmm… fritters…
Already more than 40% of Americans don’t pay taxes.
And as Megan McArdle asked, will Republicans (who care about getting re-elected) be willing to go on the same suicide mission as the Democrats undertook, but in order to stop ObamaCare and the entitlement debt bomb?
I find this disturbing. I tire of seeing “Twilight” displays in every Wal-Mart. They even have t-shirts of the fake high school athletic team in this little series.
It’s akin to a cult, but their religious figures are very lame. Finish that joke yourselves.
I would agree, but I enjoy the subplot because the parole officer looks like my uncle from Texas.
I may donate to his opponent. Giving up your voting bloc for an executive order – which, again as McArdle said, will be ignored by the various new agencies – is too monumentally stupid to be rewarded.
All the “blue dog” democrats just gave America a giant “F you”. We’ll be sure to return the favor in November.
Look on the bright side of the obammyCare passage- It’s now your CIVIC DUTY to yell insults at worthless fat people! Cos, ya know, they’re gonna cost YOU money 🙂

“They took my stapler.”
“I said if they moved me one more time, I was going to set the building on fire.”
I’m with Marko on a potential contribution to his opponent. Who wants a congressman who is freeze-dried, and who has exactly as much backbone as a pouch of reconstituted stew?
I bet it’s vegetarian stew.
All the “blue dog” democrats sold their soul to “the company store.”
My thought for the day:
Preparing for the eventual 9+ Cascadia earthquake also helps one prepare for the coming national bankruptcy train wreck.
Next priority…immigration reform. Gotta turn all those illegal immigrants into registered Democrats to counter the votes of pissed off Americans, and gotta do it quick!
“In regards to Obama, the time for talk is never over. I bet he talks in his sleep. Poor Michelle.”
You are correct, except for the fact that Michelle is busy running her mouth in her sleep as well. It’s the time for “listening” that they’ve long ago decided they have no use for, but they’ll never stop talking. After all, ever since their freshman year in college they already thought they knew everything and that everyone else was clamoring to hear their brilliance.
Jimmy, don’t underestimate the value of a good flintlock.
Or a 12 gauge plug, Marko.
ObamaCare: Metastasizing into multiple inoperable carcinomas as I type.
“There is only a small window…” “That’s impossible! Even for a computer.” “It’s not impossible. I used to bullseye Wamp Rats in my T-16, back home…”
Allahu is Admiral Akbar’s first name. I always thought there was something fishy about that guy.
“…just because you like a show doesn’t mean you watch it over, and over…” Unless you want to repeat the cool dialogue verbatum.
Better to be Science! Officer on the Enterprise, than Science! Guy, Leftist Dweeb.
“…The only time a government gets smaller, is when it collapses.” Bill Nye The Science! Dweeb refers to this phenomena as ‘Black Holes’.
That is SO Democrat(Ghey). Works for me.
Moving the Left from ‘parasitism’, to ‘commensalism’ would be EVOLUTION. The Left only DEVOLVES.
Shouting at Bawney Fwank is like shouting at the dining room table.
That rights are an evolving, changing thing is a scary concept. Kind of like metastasizing carcinomas.
Mmmm…fritters. Rymes with…Twitters; which is what Frank J. does… Twitters about fritters.

I think “Valkyrie” is my new favorite movie. I may watch it over and over, even though I don’t like Tom Cruise and the ending sucks. The concept is heartwarming.
“Stupak kinda sounds like a quick dinner option you’d bring while camping.”
Actually it is a mental condition, hopefully cured by obamacare.
How I Met your Mother had a gratuitous jab at hippies tonight…. Strawberry
Eh. Lemme try that out.
“At least I still have my mustache.”
Not feeling it. Something’s missing.
“At least I still have my mustache and soul patch.”
OK, I feel better now. Thanx Frank.
