Let us not forget Barry telling his people to get in their faces during the campaign.

But sometimes a crowd is just a mob that happens to be sitting down.”

AND sometimes a columnist, is just a homo looking for his next gig....

What a puke this Roger Simon is.

I was a bit taken aback by that myself. We’re the party of life. We ought to be coming up with ways to save lives.”

Actually we should be the party of freedom and sometimes freedom means making stupid choices and facing the consequences of them.

Paul always has that tendency to punk out when pressed.

St Rick was the one who was “taken aback” (punked out)

Blitzer: “But congressman, are you saying that society should just let him die?”

Paul: “No.”

OK, so who pays?


The next morning, Perry, probably after being briefed by his handlers, told reporters: “I was a bit taken aback by that myself. We’re the party of life. We ought to be coming up with ways to save lives.”

But I didn’t hear any good ideas from Perry either. Again, who pays for the sick guy who has no money and no insurance?


“...many news organizations carried the story that Ron Paul’s former campaign manager, a libertarian, died at age 49 in 2008 from viral pneumonia, was uninsured and left $400,000 in medical bills for his mother and friends to pay.”

How does one leave debts to one’s mother and friends? Did they somehow obligate themselves to pay?

I know an administration apologist who is a lawyer and is over 50, a smoker and no health ins. I think it’s irresponsible, but she does it. And she shares prescriptions, has her kids share inhalers...........I told her I couldn’t talk about it anymore; I didn’t agree with it. She accuses anyone who has a policy difference with the administration of “hate”.

On the plus side, she is pro-life.

I don’t mind liberals perceiving conservatives as savages to be feared. Sometimes I wish it were true.

Regardless of Paul’s, Perry’s, or anyone’s answer to the hypothetical posed, it is ridiculous for the media to cling to crowd reaction. We could compile a laundry list of youtube videos depicting liberal/Democrat crowds cheering violence, racism, etc. The desperation is palpable.

The noise came from a handful of Paul supporters but the Tea Party is getting blamed.

The point that neither Paul nor Perry made clear is that the crowd was mocking the liberal stupidity of the questioners rather than cheering anyone’s death.

exactly. Stupid straw man question that the crowd was sarcastically cheering, IMO.

I watched MSNBC that night (I like it for the laughs), and they were apoplectic over the crowd cheering. I thought it was funny myself.

The looters and moochers that make up Obama’s base need people who won't fight for their rights. They need people who can be swayed by a sob story into acting against their own best interests and the best interests of the nation. This kind of cold determination scares the heck out of them, and well it should. It means the victim game isn't working as well as it used to.

When the cult of the phony victim fails the Democrats have nothing left. Without their status as a victim the welfare queens are just leaches and the union goons are just thugs. Good men possessing firm, cold determination know how to deal with leaches and thugs.

Here's an insight into Simon's corrupt political ideology from his own mini-biography:

"When Simon dies, he intends to be buried in Chicago, so he can still participate in the politics of that city."

to the cheering for a sick person’s death in Tampa this week.

To be fair, it was a hypothetical sick person's hypothetical death.
