Video: Specter shocked, shocked to find individual mandate in ObamaCare
Hot Air ^ | August 14, 2009 | ED MORRISSEY

This kind of thing is so predictable that it’s a wonder that we haven’t seen more of these moments coming from the increasingly rare open town-hall forums this month.

When legislators don’t bother to read bills before supporting them, they will obviously fail to know all the nuggets of disasters contained within them.

The beauty of this clip is that the question that flummoxes Specter comes not from a Tea Party protester but from one of Specter’s putative allies from a union:

You’re NOT living in a free society, Arlen. Not when thugs and traitors like YOU are in friggin’ charge!!! Naturally, you and the IMPORTANT people will have CHOICES and be able—that is PERMITTED—to do what you wish. We the underlings will not!! An arrogant, self-righteous little weasel like you is damned fortunate one of the people at those meetings didn’t absolutely lay you out! A straight right, right between the eyes. Lying, pontificating, selling-out the American people in order to increase your own power and authority...you’re damned lucky, pal.

He is becoming more shocked that people aren’t as stupid and un-informed as he thinks they are.

No is that really appropriate to talk about senior purveyors of the skin trade and align them with a failed invertebrate, and obviously a clinically stupid carbon unit that is not only clueless but is classless as well.

At least whores worked for a living, politicians make a living out of screwing millions, and we keep paying them, long after their usefulness, which is by my reconnecting is 30 seconds after they get elected.

Just damn, how stupid are we?

As RobinMasters pointed out, America has become nothing more than a Turdworld Nation; Casa Blanca sums up the whole mess very well. This is not just a top down rotting of the fish and more akin to poisoning the national body politic by less than authentic Americans.

That is because the people who vote DEM are generally stupid and uniformed. He has never answered to the educated because he knows they don’t vote for him anyway.

I think Arlen would look flummoxed if you asked him what he had for breakfast this morning
