Republicans Block U.S. Health Aid for 9/11 Workers

New York Times ^ | 12/09/10 | Raymond Hernandez

Enough money was funneled into New York after the event for all time. More is not required.

[wbarmy]

I take your meaning as:

If the Democrats take some time to push this bill and strengthen their hand by aligning their own congressmen, you will blame the Republicans and vote Democrat next time.

“I figure the NYT will fade into oblivion in about 10-15 more years.”

There will always be a market for trash like the NYT in a city infested with Marxists, traitors and moonbat leftists. Even if they have to take ads from cathouses and bathouses, the NYT will always exist even if they have to hand it out free on streetcorners.

Your real name isn't Farrakhan, is it?

My first instinct was Pat Buchanan, but Pat's fairly bright and not totally nuts. On second thought was it may be a troll. Still not all that sure.

[ThePatriotsFlag]

These people are planned collateral damage by our enemies. But rather than become angry at terrorists who “are still” killing us from 911, the press focuses on Republicans who are being blamed for their demise. What a sad “media” we have today.

[Wolfie]

The people who went there should have known what would happen. From Agent Orange to Gulf War Syndrome, once they’re done with you and have made all the pretty speeches, they toss you on the scrap heap.

[Incorrigible]

Thanks

[Clintonfatigued]

Gee, no bias in that headline at all, no siree!!!

[Skeez]

Next, Republicans block bill for relief to veterans of WW2.

[GeronL]

How does the GOP block anything? They couldn’t block all that other crap for the last 2 years?

[LeonardFMason]

Oh NO! The Republicans are going to lose the NY City vote!

Why doesn’t

[GeronL]

If it folds some of the more radical writers will launch a small marxist tabloid or something to eplace it. lol.

[HollyB]

Thx

[Christian Engineer Mass]

Yeah they’ll launch a pamphlet that grungy 60-yr old guys will hand out on street corners, called “The Red Planet”, with headlines like “Republicans vote against 9/11 healthcare”

[3rdcoastislander]

Muslim terrorists were the masterminds behind 9-11. Soros may have been overjoyed when it happened though.

[equaviator]

No, of course not...I’m just demonstrating how the power of suggestion is so easily abused by the media.

[A_Former_Democrat]

They’re NEVER sincere in their politics. It’s also about deception, income redistribution, buying votes, embarrassing GOP. To think there’s any group, outside of maybe the porn industry or “artists” that Democrats truly believe they are “helping” is nonsense

They are evil, childish, uncaring . except about themselves and their donor buds.

[Batrachian]

I, for one, do not believe in victimology. As a group, the 9/11 victims and their families received billions in payouts from the taxpayers. Why? Politics, of course. Government being generous with my nickel again. As for your comment about Soros, if that was sarcasm it was too subtle for my limited intellect.

[a fool in paradise]

If I recall the kerfluffle, it has to do with ANYONE being able to make a claim (like those who trucked debris but never went to the site, etc.)

It wasn’t just first responders and those at ground zero cleanup efforts.

[a fool in paradise]

2 years and the corrupt odumbo administration did nothing, what a disgrace

"Bush's fault!" < /sarc >
