(h/t Reverent & Free) Democrats are willing to concede to the right wing town hall concerns.
Yes, in light of the provisions that conservative activists have demanded be removed from any and all legislation, Stroszek is willing to say, without equivocation, that under Democratic reform proposals, “We will not euthanize your grandmother.” Democrats will also agree, among other things, not to let Rahm Emanuel’s brother kill Sarah Palin’s baby, not to nationalize hospitals, not to “provide illegal immigrants with unlimited free health care,” not to eliminate private insurance, and not to establish “a super-secret-awesome health care program for ACORN employees.”
With these concessions having been made, I trust that we can now move forward on health care reform with a broad, bipartisan consensus. Blue Dogs and Republicans, you can now rest easy knowing that the concerns of the town hall protesters have been met. While the progressive dream of a nation in which old people are slaughtered to pay for the abortions of ACORN-employed illegal immigrants will again have to be deferred, we are willing to settle for a bill without these measures in the name of bipartisanship. Congratulations, Republicans. You’ve won this round.
Speaking of which, Baron Hill is being inundated with calls on the health care debate. Hopefully he can promise he will vote not only “no,” but “hell no!” on government death panels.
HOw long until the RedStaters and FReepers start using this and posts like it on Dailykos to point our “see, we told you! Sarah was right!” Snark and sarcasm are acquired taste requiring education and a sense of humor.
