President Asserts that American People Are to Blame for Healthcare Crisis
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 8 August 2009 | John Semmens

Posted on 08/09/2009 9:58:04 AM PDT by John Semmens

President Barack Obama said that a key source of his frustration with public criticism of his health care plan is that “the people who created this mess aren’t qualified to critique my solution.”

“Look, the average American is an over-weight slob,” Obama asserted. “He eats too much of the wrong foods. He doesn’t get enough exercise. He engages in dangerous activities like smoking and driving. This is driving health care costs through the roof. Opposing my reforms would let these same behaviors continue unchecked.”

The President argued that the evidence supports a “transfer of control over health issues from those who have abused freedom of choice to those who will base decisions on sound science and a devotion to the collective well-being of the whole population. Resistance to this reform is a manifestation of ignorance and the selfish indulgence of personal vices.”

Uh oh John. You’re going to get a lot of angry reaction to this satire. The line between sarcasm and reality are becoming blurrier with each passing day.

Smoking and driving?

Yo, Obama, does that mean YOU are GUILTY too?

WHat a freaking hypocrite.

Don’t play the “blame game” here, you lying hypocrite.

The President likes booze, pot helps, and a little blow when you can afford it. His words not mine and he is leading health care reform?

“transfer of control over health issues from those who have abused freedom of choice to those who will base decisions on sound science and a devotion to the collective well-being of the whole population.”

Yes we need to politicize the health care system because the Federal Government is filled with such decent and honest people. Filled with those who have proven themselves over the course of time to be incredibly innovative and efficient compared to the private sector. I mean who doesn’t want the likes of Tubby Kennedy, Dickweed Durbin, Stretchface Pelosi and a Chicago street hustler who couldn’t organize a popcorn fart in a whirlwind in charge of their medical decisions?
