Sounds like he’s irritated that the uninsured get any medical attention. Now that’s a health care policy!

Goodman finally commented, claiming that he was only being “tongue-in-cheek” and that anyone “on the left” who was upset had “no sense of humor.”

Anyone who doesn’t get a barrel of laughs out of Bush-Cheney’s last 7-1/2 years has no sense of humor either.

Can I get my teeth fixed in the emergency room…?
Can I get my eye’s examined in the emergency room…?
Can I get a pap smear in the emergency room…?
Can I get a mammogram in the emergency room…?
Can I see a psychiatrist in the emergency room…?

Did people see the news report about the mob of laid-off workers who attacked and beat the CEO to death that laid them off? Maybe we should try that here.

HEY, JUST KIDDING… IT WAS JUST A JOKE! JUST A “TONGUE-IN-CHEEK” KIND OF THING. DON’T YOU HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR??!!

The survivors of the 18 to 40 million that died each year, that watched the despair and illness before death due to no access to health care, I am sure do not see this as a joke.

Let the rich bastards fall… they deserve and need the journey.

Ah ha ha! Svlad Jelly, that is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard! You are a laugh riot! Chest pains, possibly cancerous moles and no health care! Har har! Stop it man, you’re killing me!

As an uninsured American, I’d like to tell Goodman and McCain to f**k themselves. I’ve got a bum wrist because when I broke it I thought it wasn’t that bad and didn’t want to deal with the headache of more hospital bills. I have problems with my teeth that cause periodic pain that I still haven’t dealt with because I have no idea where to go for help. I get chest pains. I have a bad back. I have worrisome moles.

An emergency room will not fix my many medical problems. A**holes.

It’s so true. It solves so many of our economic and trade problems. If we really want to make the “fundamentals of the American economy” strong, and encourage productivity and innovation from American workers, let’s stop pushing the cost of health care on employers, and by extension on to consumers. There’s no reason that consumers should have to pay an extra $1,300 per vehicle to cover health care costs.

This is the same stupid, tired argument that Limbaugh and the dittoheads always fall back on when he says something thoroughly stupid and easily disproven. Either he was “taken out of context”, which would be difficult to claim in this case, or “it was satire” “he was just joking”. “Why don’t libs have a sense of humor?”

It would actually be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.

I dont’ know, the repugs have quite a track record of trying to re-write their quotes.

Just in the last week, someone who wrote a bill for a no-oversight bill for $700 billion (language specifically said no oversight other than yearly report to Congress), spent quite a long time before his Congress saying that he welcomed oversight and didn’t include it in his bill as he didn’t want to be presumptuous.

This bears repeating and is why a real change is more than just required, it is necessary:

hussein toasterhead Says:
This is becoming a pattern. Our government is increasingly being funded by emergency supplementals rather than long-term budgets. We’re fixing the food crisis by throwing food at it instead of examining farm subsidies, we’re fixing the oil crisis by allowing the offshore drilling ban to expire instead of focusing on clean energy. Foreign aid is increasingly focusing on emergency relief instead of emergency prevention.

There’s no planning or policymaking anymore, just crisis handling. That’s an inherently unsustainable way to run a country.

Health care for Americans should be returned to one of the top priorities of any potential leader of this country.
