BABY PANDA!

Don't be too surprised if you hear a liberal relative shout that out at the Thanksgiving table today if the topic of talk turns to Obamacare. Although Barack Obama himself has been urging members of Organizing For America to bring up Obamacare talking points at the dinner parties today, another liberal school of thought is that the President's signature program has fumbled so badly that it is now too embarrassing to defend. So when a gloating relative points out that conservatives have been right about the train wreck of Obamacare all along, one must change the subject entirely. Huffington Post writers Nick wing and Shadee Ashtari provide some helpful tips on what subjects a liberal can bring up to change the subject away from the embarrassment of Obamacare:

I have never met an Obamacare supporter in person. I only see them on TV.

Little wonder!!

After all, they don't want to bring up the wonders of the sham called "Obamacare" and be confronted with the true story of a Stage IV Cancer relative who has just found out the so-called ACA and its well-crafted rules had caused that dear relative to be weeping over the cancellation of a wonderful health care insurance policy which has paid for great physicians and care for 4+ years and would have continued were it not for the shameless Obama and his merry band of power-hungry tyrants.

I have printed out copies of the OFA talking points and will used them as disposable placemats for dinner later this afternoon.

everything is political to the left, this is why they want to give out condoms in kindergarten. No matter how inappropriate they might be, everything is politics to them.

They just can’t leave people alone, even on Thanksgiving.

“More Communist Cranberry sauce, Comrade?”

“Trotsky Turkey?”

“Mao’d potatoes?”

“Gorky Green beans?”

I’m telling them this: “May the chains you voted for rest lightly upon you.”

And nothing else.

The political Right has been warning about this since 2009. And unfortunately for the political Left, all those warnings have become today’s reality. Ouch!

What? You mean they don’t want to talk about how anyone with any money now have to pay out the nose to provide healthcare for all the worthless freeloaders?

Yup I just got up from a hum-dinger of a Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey all the extras.... and a brother and wife liberal who could not for the life of them keep civil.... I told them I would not talk poly-tics if they would refrain from the same....What do I know I’m just an ex navy enlisted dweeb (with a masters degree) and he is a grand and glorious political hack. I took them 15 minutes to turn the conversation to their Idol Obummer... it took me 3 minutes to evict them from my house. They will never set foot inside again. It almost destroyed dinner but the rest of my guests and family think I did right.

So sorry to hear that the usual libs pretty much ruined your Ts. As a vet, you should have been respected in your own home. In my house, politics are verboten during the holidays. Almost always, people obey the one rule I lay down. I’ll be damned if I’m going to work 7 hours to create a meal only to have some jerk ruin it!

Take care and have a Merry Christmas.
