Was losing my seat for Obamacare worth it? (Severe Nausea Alert)
PMSNBC ^ | 10/1/2013 | Patrick J. Murphy

Posted on 10/01/2013 11:37:35 AM PDT by mojito

How has the debate over healthcare devolved so much? I’ll be honest. Sometimes, in a reflective moment sitting in the church pew, when I’m not trying mightily to enlist my 6-year-old daughter to keep my 3-year-old son quiet, I think about whether, despite all the good it has done and will do, voting for Obamacare was worth it.

I was one of the 63 House Democrats who lost their seat in the epic 2010 election that was fueled by the Tea Party and their angst against Obamacare. I was one of those members yelled at in town halls and who received death threats and watched on TV when my colleague was shot in the head in January 2011, only months after she voted for the health care law.

What an evil scummy a$$ this creep is.

The insinuation that somehow the Tea Party was responsible for the shooting of Gabbie Gifford because of her 0bamacare vote, when he knows it to be an utter falsehood, is nothing short of blood libel, and a new low even for an a$$licking 0bamacrat.

I can sum up the problem here quite succinctly:

Mr. Murphy was under the belief that he had a perpetual right to his seat in Congress, and the citizens of his district were ignorant peons.

I would guess that of 535 Congressmen and Senators, probably 500+ have the same opinion.

This delusional A$$hat needs an exorcism. I don't know from what egomaniacal persepective this evil man sees himself, but I think he perfectly represents HIS followers and liberals in general. His feeling sorry for himself and gloating at the same time? This is a horrible and sorry soul.

Is he implying that Rep. Giffords was shot because she voted for obamacare?

Article about the Kos contributor’s ‘hit’ piece two days before Gifford’s shooting. (I get really tired of these folks rewriting history.)

Makes as much sense as his insinuation. A primary logical fallacy is confusing commonality with causation. Not that he was really confused, merely dishonest.

What an arse.
While spending his reflective moments sitting in his Church pew, he should have reflected on one of God's Commandments where He says "Thou Shalt Not Bare False Witness".
Sure, maybe he doesn't actually go out and say that Gifford (who was shot by a left wing lunatic) wasn't shot for her support of Government takeover of the Healthcare system -- but he implies as much. That is baring false witness.

This MSNBC creep never read the atrocious legislation he voted for. He is ignorant that 30 MILLION are still going to be uninsured BECAUSE of Obamacare...and the rest will be under death panels, losing their doctors as they quit, and having a HUGE increase in taxes and PREMIUMS. So, how was this for the good again? THis guy deserved far worse punishment than losing his seat. And still does.

Yes. Were he to state it outright he'd be laughed at. He can only insinuate and deny when confronted. That's a modus operandi we're long used to by now.

He’s also under the impression that he can get communion and be a good dad and publicly promote abortion, but he can’t.

Maybe he’d have more fortune if he’d stop pushing for the destruction of children and families, which is what his party does its their existence

I just want to say, any second grade first communion student knows that no catholic needs to have the church hierarchy to pronounce excommunication.
