McCain: Don't expect GOP cooperation on legislation for the rest of this year
"There will be no cooperation for the rest of the year," McCain said during an interview Monday on an Arizona radio affiliate. "They have poisoned the well in what they've done and how they've done it."
I'm sorry, am I to understand that what we've seen from the Republicans this last year or so has been "cooperation?" You know, this bill was gutted of everything that would have made it worthwhile to try to please you assclowns and all you did was piss all over the process, drum up phony outrage and spread outright lies about bullshit like "death panels."
You were sitting in the passenger seat, you grabbed the wheel and ran the car into a tree then complained that you weren't allowed to drive. So I hope you're right for once. I hope there is no more cooperation, since it seemed to be a one-way street anyway. I hope that Harry Reid grows a pair and starts actually ramming legislation down your throats. You don't deserve to be involved in the process. You've shown yourselves to be completely irresponsible, obstructive whiners whose only goal is your opponents' failure.
You guys have been pretty upfront about your motivations for stopping healthcare reform.
South Carolina dickweed Jim DeMint said that if they could stop the healthcare bill "it will be his Waterloo. It will break him." Not "we need to stop this bill because it's a bad idea." No, you had to try to stop a bill that would give millions of Americans better access to doctors and medicines because it would be politically advantageous. So fuck Jim DeMint, he's not allowed at the grownups' table anymore.
And remember Orin Hatch? He said that the bill had to be stopped because it would make the Democrats too strong. (really!) Party politics is more important than the health of the American citizenry? Fuck you, Hatch. You don't get to be involved in any discussion of substance anymore.
If you had complaints about the actual content of the bill, like the cost or whatever, you had your opportunities to register your objections, but you opted to scream and whine about socialism and health rationing and killing grandma. If you're not going to take this shit seriously, then why the hell should you be involved? The majority gets to pass the laws it wants to. If the people don't like those laws, they can vote the bums out and send in a new batch of bums to enact different laws. That's the way a Republic works. That's the way America works. You all seemed to have no trouble grasping the concept when you were in the majority. Well, now the people have sent in a different group of bums because they didn't like what you bums were doing. That's the system. Grow the fuck up and deal with it. Either put on your big boy pants and try to participate constructively, or shut the hell up and stay out of the way.
