Ramirez on Democrats’ ObamaCare death wish

Hot Air ^

[AlanD]

No one can accuse two-time Pulitzer Prize winning editorial cartoonist Michael Ramirez of holding back — or of Investors Business Daily of a lack of courage in publishing him. His latest take on the Democrats’ headlong rush to electoral oblivion in the midterms, and perhaps beyond, is dead-on accurate. Backbenchers are being asked to blow up their political careers in order to save President Obama’s term in office. But expect people to strongly object to the imagery and the declaration Ramirez uses.

Provocative? Absolutely. But this isn’t insinuating that Obama is a secret Muslim or that Democrats are terrorists. It accuses Democrats of putting Obama the man ahead of their own Constitutional obligations, and their own careers. Perhaps that could also have been depicted as falling on a grenade or committing seppuku, but for this age, the image instantly communicates exactly what the artist intends.

I think the ass should be smiling instead of gritting. Effem.

Well, . . . that too.

Yup, brilliant!

But if they get this into law think of the additional power they’ll have over us. They have done every dirty, s/b illegal and unconstitutional thing they can think of - rewarding their friends, buying votes to get their way.

Just what would the rats do to we who disagree if they were in control of our health care? I remember what Obama said. He told a wayward Congressman “We’re keeping score”.

So what I think is they might lose the battle if they get this passed but in the long run they will win the war.

"...that Obama is a secret Muslim..."

Is that still supposed to be a secret?

[manonCANAL]

I thought everyone knew Obango is a muslim. He don’t hide it.
