DUmmie FUnnies 03-20-14 (William Rivers Pitt Saved by Big Pharma)

DUmmie FUnnies ^ | March 20, 2014 | William Rivers Pitt, DUmmies, and PJ-Comix

[PJ-Comix]

When last we saw WILLIAM RIVERS PITT yesterday he was WITHOUT HOPE. Utterly betrayed by his blessed ObamaCare, he cursed both it and Dear Leader for depriving his wife of much needed meds. And yet, much less than 24 business hours ago, back in March 2010 when ObamaCare passed Congress, Pitt had such HIGH HOPES:

My wife has MS. I'm celebrating the passage of this bill.

All of you who are determined to shit all over the passage of this legislation...welll...try not to land on each other when you jump out the window.

I'm celebrating today.

Well he was celebrating then but crying yesterday. However today Pitt is happy again because Big Pharma came to the rescue. Of course, don't expect Pitt to go overboard in his gratitude because he is already at extreme risk of being Tombstoned from DUmmieland for his heresy of yesterday. In fact, as you shall see in his THREAD, "My wife will get her meds" [thanks to Big Pharma], many DUmmies are demanding that Pitt apologize for attacking Dear Leader. So let us now watch WILLIAM RIVERS PITT credit Big Pharma for saving his wife in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, wondering if the Trust Fund Kid had to plead abject poverty in order to score the cheap/free drugs, is in the [brackets]:

My wife will get her meds

[Y quien es El Salvador?]

Those of you who suggested we go through the drug company directly were bang-on correct; our insurance company is still futzing around, but the drug company has hooked us up for enough time to get the issue permanently resolved.

[Bless you, Big Pharma!!! You rescued us when we were abandoned by ObamaCare!]

Thanks for all your (mostly) kid words and advice.

Still hyper-pissed.

[At ObamaCare, Dear Leader, and at MYSELF for being a complete IDIOT.]

But my wife will get her medication.

[Thanx to Big Pharma.]

And that is enough for today.

[Not yet, Pitt. The DUmmies are still demanding you apologize for yesterday's heresy. Oh, and today's acknowledgment that Big Pharma saved the day for you only adds to your heresy. So on to the accusatory DUmmies.....]

I'm so glad that the drug company is going to help your wife with her meds.

[Thank you, Koch Bros. Pharmaceuticals!]

Exactly, no one should have to jump through hoops to get life-saving meds.

[You mean like declaring poverty when the fat Trust Fund check is in the mail?]

The drug companies *count* on this. Every person who gives up in despair before managing to break through the layers of red tape and seemingly insurmountable obstacles represents profit to those greedy jerks.

[Big Pharma is proving the Pitt family with cheap/free drugs and they are "greedy jerks?"]

Will, I'm delighted that your wife has access to her medications, but we as a nation simply cannot ethically afford to accept this kind of individual "fix" each time an individual in need runs up against the wall of for-profit health "care".

[Correct. We should depend on ObamaCare to automatically Death Panel us.]

How do we pay for all this shit?

[From Obama's stash, you fool.]

A journalist might take this as a great topic for an article

["Leftwing WRP Saved By Big Pharma."]

To the cost of doxycycline. Back in the mid Nineties, it would cost you about $ 30 to $ 45 a month if you were fighting an infection and needed it. Now that Big Pharma has realized that so many tens of thousands of Americans who need this drug for their battle against Lyme's disease, the cost has sky rocketed. It can cost a person around $ 2,000 a month.

[Just cross the border to Mexico, you lazy moron, and the moment you are on the other side there are tons of Farmacias that sell those same drugs for about the price of a case of cerveza for a month's supply. I used to take the Tijuana Trolly a bunch of time to get meds for my parents that way.]

god damn mother f@#%ing throw mad used car asshole piece of 4236@#$^^$!!!

[Ahh! Stirring up memories of Yesterday Pitt before he was SAVED by Big Pharma.]

Will sounds like they are getting the medication DESPITE our current system, not BECAUSE of it

[Correct. DESPITE ObamaCare, not BECAUSE of it.]

Any chance you may consider self-deleting that other thread? Not that I am super team sportsy, but I do really hate Repukes and the less ammo they have the better.

[Too late to send it to the Memory Hole. That thread has already been featured in the DUmmie FUnnies. Oh, and also in NewsBusters!]

Will deserved all he got and more. He mischaracterized the problem from the beginning, criticized the wrong people, acted like he was the only person in history to ever deal with this issue, and basically behaved liked a horse's ass.

[And worst of all, he credited Big Pharma for coming to the rescue.]

But I doubt WP will ever give you or anyone else thanks for helping him.

[How about giving thanks to Big Pharma who really did help him?]

WP's aversion to correction is rotten to it's core.

[WP will get over his aversion to correction in just 24 business hours.]

May I ask the name of the medication ?

[Low Dose Aspirin.]

So glad your wife will be getting her meds.

[Thanks to Big Pharma.]

You owe Obama an apology

[Mr. President, I apologize for voting for you twice. What the hell was I thinking?]

I wonder what day you are going to be on FOX? I'm sure they will be happy to air your success with your health care.

[Pitt will be on FOX right after he appears in the AFP anti-ObamaCare ad.]

Great news! Now how about an apology to DU for the big shit you took on our President?

[Don't try that in Venezuela. No toilet paper.]

So. Obama somehow magically got the drug company to help us after his legislation delivered us to an insurance company that f*cked us over...thus, I should apologize? Truly magical thinking.

[That was Pitt angrily responding. And its true. Obama and ObamaCare didn't help him a bit. It was Big Pharma that saved the family Pitt.]

LOL. Now you're a shill for big pharma? too funny.

[Shhh! Don't remind us of Pitt's heresy or he risks a major Tombstoning.]

I swear, you're blind and you're stubborn and your angry posts, recommended by your choir of sycophants, do nothing to advance the cause.

[So what is it about Pitt that you don't like?]

[PJ-Comix]

BTW, anybody who wants to get a HUUUGE cut rate deal on meds, just cross La Frontera to Mexico. Once on the other side, the numerous Farmacias there will sell you the exact same prescription drugs for just pennies on the dollar. When I lived in SoCal I used take the Tijuana Trolley to the border and the moment I crossed, I picked up cheap meds for my folks. Got tanked on La Cerveza while there.

IBTP

[PJ-Comix]

PING!

[Little Bill]

His wife had some cool tats.

[KosmicKitty]

Top 10?

[Viennacon]

DU is in disarray. hahah

[mylife]

Praise the Lard!

[ToastedHead]

Thank God for the generosity of Big Pharma! Obama could’ve killed Mrs. Pitt when he kicked her off the plan she liked that paid for her life saving medication.

[eyedigress]

Seems as tho this Will fella is a diehard left nut that finally got mugged by his own socialist belief system.

Libtards are so freaking slow to see anything until it’s the mighty goobermint that punches their teeth out.

These DUFU’s are funny but quite pathetic at the same time.

[lacrew]

Hope they don’t get rid of Will.

Too entertaining to let go.

[Future Snake Eater]

Just cross the border to Mexico, you lazy moron, and the moment you are on the other side there are tons of Farmacias that sell those same drugs for about the price of a case of cerveza for a month's supply. I used to take the Tijuana Trolly a bunch of time to get meds for my parents that way.

I fail to see how that's a ringing endorsement for the great pre-ObamaCare days.

[luvie]

I was hoping to see his big fat butt go down in phlames! LOL!

[Ditter]

No Mexican Farmacias for me. Years ago we were in Mex and I had a migraine headache. The farmicia gave me something over the counter, that had to be LSD’s first cousin. One of those pills and my headache was gone but I had the impression that I could fly. I was out of my mind for the rest of the day. I flushed the rest of those pills.

[Incorrigible]

You are definitely on to the Pittster not disclosing his trust fund stash to score some free meds.

My wife has MS too and because of Obamacare my company had to change their health plan this year to a very high deductable plan compared to prior years. She injects herself with expensive Interferon every week.

Fortunately an organization called MS Lifelines stepped in to help with the deductible. I’ve been doing bike and walk fundraisers for MS for years and it was nice to know my wife and others are benefitting in this way.

So. Obama somehow magically got the drug company to help us after his legislation delivered us to an insurance company that f*cked us over...thus, I should apologize? Truly magical thinking

He ALmost deserves a Kewpie doll for that statement alone! :)

[Army Air Corps]

Pure comic gold.

[PJ-Comix]

I fail to see how that's a ringing endorsement for the great pre-ObamaCare days.

It's a ringing endorsement for getting meds CHEAP at any time. And from seeing the price of those MS meds, it is worth a plane trip to San Diego (or El Paso) and cross the border to get meds for PENNIES on the dollar.

[Slings and Arrows]

[Slings and Arrows]

No Mexican Farmacias for me.

I'll second that. If you buy a drug in the USA, the odds are that it's actually what the label says it is. Cross the border and you takes your chances.

[kevkrom]

He ALmost deserves a Kewpie doll for that statement alone! :)

Pitt is ineligible for a Kewpie doll award due to a historic pattern of lack of self-awareness.
