Dick Durbin and Poor, Poor Judy
RightWingPatriot.com ^ | September 25, 2013 | RightWingPatriot

Posted on 09/25/2013 11:11:46 AM PDT by rightwingerpatriot

I love letting progressive liberals speak freely as they will eventually let their true thoughts slip out. Such was the case yesterday when Senator Dick Durbin (Illinois) had an exchange with Ted Cruz during Cruz's marathon 21 hour speech. As is the case with liberals, they never argue facts but just attempt to use emotion to bolster their already weak arguments. Dick Durbin spun the story of a housekeeper "Judy" who works at a motel and has become friends with Durbin. This occurred when Dick Durbin couldn't answer Ted Cruz's question of whether or not Durbin had actually read the Obamacare legislation. When confronted with the possibility of facts, Durbin reacted the way all liberals do, start telling stories.

It seems that poor Judy is a 62 year old woman who has worked in manual labor her entire life and does not have health insurance. Durbin wails about Judy's situation and rails at Cruz if he will deny Judy and the millions of other who qualify for Obamacare will be left with nothing if it is overturned. Well, is it the job of other working Americans to pay for Judy's health care? There are plenty of charitable organizations willing to help out the underprivileged and Judy cannot be denied medical care in life or death emergencies. (Of course, Obama and his progressive liberal cronies hate private charity as people choose to donate, which is why they're always working hard to reduce the deductions you can take for charitable contributions. All the better to get people to stop giving of their own free will and turn everything over to the almighty government.) Taking money from one person to give to another, no matter what the reason, is theft. I don't care if the purpose is supposedly noble. If I want to help Judy out, let me make that choice and I'll make a donation to a local hospital to help out those in need.

Progressive liberals just can't shake the notion that it's ok to steal from people just to give it to others. I need new tires on my car, but I'm not asking the government to take money from a guy driving a BMW to get me some new whitewalls. Liberals seem to be born with one hand in somebody else's pocket, grabbing all they can whenever they can. If they want to help people, let them do it out of their own pockets. Of course, we know that liberals don't do that. Studies have shown again and again that liberals give far less to charity than conservatives do. In fact, the more affluent the liberals are, the less they contribute, while the reverse is true for conservatives. Poorer people of faith give much more than rich progressives do, which just illustrates who really gives a damn about those in need.

Just remember that all this talk of altruism is just a smokescreen. The progressive liberal agenda is always about control and allowing people less freedom and choices in their lives. They don't care about lifting people out of poverty as keeping people down and poor guarantees them votes in the next election. Just listen to this quote from Dick Durbin saying, "But the good news for Judy is that her income is so low that she now qualifies for Medicaid for the first time in her life." A conservative would say it's horrible that Judy is making so little money and that she needs more freedom in the marketplace to strive to work upwards and make more money. In the bizarro-world logic of liberals, working a dead-end job for little money is a good thing.

What hotel did he meet her? Why was he talking to poor destitute Judy? Who was he with? Did he leave Judy a good tip to offset her poverty?

That is what I want to know.

I’m sure there is no actual “Judy”. She is a fiction of his imagination(though I doubt he has the mental capacity), a compilation of women he has met over the years possibly, but I will put my money on a absolute lie, balderdash, bullsh*t, malarkey, you know typical liberal pontification.

How about the poor millions of others who are losing their jobs or being cut down to part time because of Obamacare?

Those of us who are unfortunate enough to live in Illinois call him Dick "Sack Of" Durbin.

It's equal to being called a sack of shit. Which Durbin is.

11:17 a.m.: Durbin to Cruz: Do You Want to Abolish a Program That Will Provide People With Health Care?

Sen. Durbin told the story of a woman named Judy, who would be able to recieve health care for the first time under Obamacare. Cruz responded to Durbin's question, saying that this specific woman should be able to get care, "but in my view any health care reform should empower citizens to take consultation with their physicians and not have any government bureaucrat get in the way of them and their doctor."

Cruz then asked Durbin if he believed Teamsters President James Hoffa is right to say that Obamacare will "destroy" health care for Americans.

DICK durbin is PWNED.

Yeah! And when is the last time Douchbag Durbin stayed at some sleazy MOTEL that pays a maid with 30+years of experience so little that she qualifies for Medicaid?

Durbin was around when this happened and contributed ti it.

CITIZENS OF THE REPUBLIC IT IS TIME TO DO A RECALL

Those born 20 years ago have never seen this film clip.Of the four passenger helicopter already overloaded with eight just barely lifting off its roof top heli-pad. Attached to its steel tube runner type landing gear below the fuselage were about a dozen more desperate people clinging to the gear . As the craft struggles to get airborne. it lurches skyward as one of those clinging to the steel tubes used as landing gear lets go. Falling to a death some 35 feet down to the refugee crowded lamding pad atop the Saigon American Embassy roof..

They were fleeing South Viet Nam through its closed US embassy because American support was withdrawn and denied .Leaving its army running out of ammo and conviction. Sold out by an American congress controled ironically by Democrats that.decided to shed its support for a democratic form of government to what became a US ward for a socialist/communist replacement . It was a harbinger of what that political party will bring to the US 50 years later.

Because of Obamacare most recalling of defunding\ governemnt shutdowns simply goes back to Gingrich’s time when he was Speaker. This earlier defunding/ government shutdown had profound implications where hundreds of thousands died because of it. Like the constitutional constrains on central government. That abandonment of Viet Nam is hardly if ever mentioned or discussed in classrooms despite American humiliation could be demonstrated in that film clip described in this articles lead paragraph.. Because it was created by the Democrat party responding to the socialist/communist radicals that had taken over the “liberal arts eduicational industry” and were slowly taking that party over as well..

Not only did we lose a war because of it. But those same university socialist educators which encouraged this defunding , and dis-honoring the of the 58,000 deaths of our military. Also encouraged their charges to use humiliation such as calling retuning servicemen “baby killers” (only later to kill their own) and spitting in their faces. Their educational products are now on their own, borrowing a military term, R&R . Running and Ruining destroying this country . For this time the same group are now in control of that political party.

Changing it so much that in their 2012 convention booed any reference to “The Creator” ,God.. Demonstrating that any connection to the political party of JFK is gone. They are Democrat in name only and really Demo-Coms.. A term their present political opposition would choke on repeating . For the Republicans are.unable even to use the milder epithet “socialist”. The DCs are now demanding funding for a cherished socialist concept replete with 2000 pages of controls for the health collective. Controls which includes newly created bureaucracies for enforcement some under the direct control of the President .

Controls that:; Put thousands out of a 40 work week and reduced them to part time employees, Shut down physician hospitals, confiscated union health plans. prohibited private contracts with individual doctors, replaced medical specialists with socialist bureaucrats (death panels) Shut down medical insurance companies, or doubled the cost of health plans for starters...Yet not a word of this will be mentioned.by the complicit media apararatzicks running major visual media outlets.

For there is another example of the damage the aparatzicks did and will continue to do until challanged. Expect a continuing of the racism charge. OK ! Let’s see who started that ? It really began with the President of The United States implying an attacker was a “victim”. of a security guard doing his job when shot and killed by the guard defending himself..There seems to be a number of socialist agendas cited as Obama’s reasoning for doing this. One of which is living in collectives. However on Obama’s cue the propaganda arm swung into action with drastic results..

The guard a big Obama supporter was an “hispanic” who is part black with a.last name which is “jewish” .Who’s doing surveilance in a posted private mixed race area of modest means experiencing robberies and burgalries by young blacks. Being such it’s legal to question anyone of blue, red, green,white, or black complexion as to their purpose being there. In this security guard situation he discontinued a surveilance after being suggested to do so by the police.The guard could have legally questioned the person under surveilance but instead allowed him to continue on his way uncontested. Only to have that person under surveilance as the guard was returning to his vehicle. knock the guard to the ground start beating his head against the sidewalk and wind up getting killed over a struggle the guards gun

Now consider all those congressional investigations going on. If somebody even suggests impeachment. Get to your black base voters, whom you’ve done nothing for, all worked up.

Pick on some security guard who’s doing his job and make him expendable. Time to employ propaganda devices. Emphasize that white jews last name! . Call that surveilance “stalking”!, The area he’s patrolling “public access” area not gated “owned by rich whitieys”,never mention the guard is part african and dark skinned.. Depict that person he’s watching a 10 year old black kid (show picture) a “victim” and a saint. Not a six foot 160 pound 16 year old, “who was killed in cold blood” and not who was killed fighting over a gun..The episode was given the full hyperbolic treatment which lasted for months and the results are clear..

Since this barrage of propaganda black youths have been using these devices as their excuse even citing the “victims” first name Innocent whites, hispanics and asiains being murdered because of the inflamatory rhetoric composed of lies and missconceptions being driven by the regime and its supporters in the media begun by the President of the United States.. Obama never disassociated himself from it, nor discouraged it.and the reasoning behind it ?

Well, by painting a target on that security guards back he has geared up his black base .Ain’t that neat ? What better way to discourage any investigation into malfeasance and corruption by organizing the base for riots in the streets ? Think it’s too far fetched ? Think it’s not working ? Look again http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3051558/posts

To date the political opposition known as Republican has yet to mention or comment on these examples of how this regime operates. Time to demand that they behave like political opposition or leave the rostrum !
Now is the time not to ask.but demand...

The Republican leadership was given the opportunity as they have in the past,while running the 2012 campaigns for Senate, House, and President an opportunity to spell out what was in Obamacare but didn’t http://www.theusmat.com/ or even mention Democrats had refused any reference to God in the Democratic at their 2012 convention .

Or comment on the the “Gated Community” episode which was used to furthur hyphenate; black from “hispanic,” from “white” Americans, which included Jews. Thus discarding the American Melting Pot history in favor of the socialist agenda. ....The demo-coms ruthelssly created a unconsionable use of the security guard incident to furthur their socialist agenda. That has resulted in martyrs because of its inflamatory assertions..And the political opposition ignores these glaring episodes while claiming to search for “demographics” in other directions ?.While the Republican legislative leadership plays rules games with Godless people who don’t believe in any rules or the constitution but theirs

Another Congressional “Dick” (Gephart) perfected the use of fictitious ‘friends’ in his arguments.
