Boehner ridicules Obama's healthcare town hall with seniors as PR gimmick
the hill ^ | 6/8/10 | Michael O'Brien

House GOP leader John Boehner (Ohio) went on the offensive Tuesday against an event in which President Barack Obama will promote his signature healthcare reform law to seniors.

Boehner ridiculed an online town hall the president will hold Tuesday morning as little more than a "glitzy PR campaign" to repackage the healthcare bill Obama signed in March.

Every senior I know wants ObamaCare repealed and replaced.

Obama’s fake audience will consist of paid democrat party phony seniors.

Those STUPID, STUPID, STUPID old people!!!! (and I’m 69, so I can say it without being raciest!) What the HELL are they doing standing there smiling and nodding behind a man who signed a law hastening their death. Must be Democrats. If he came to my town, I’d either stay home or turn my back on him. Shame on these people!

Doug Thornell, a spokesman for Assistant to the Speaker Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), shot back:

This is just more of the same from Washington Republicans who sound more like right wing radio hosts than legislators trying to solve problems. The GOP voted last year to dismantle Medicare and spent years hoping it would “wither on the vine.”

Oh really? Hey dipsh!t Doug Thornell. How is it possible to vote "last year to dismantle Medicare" and then spend "years" hoping it would die? Not really into math there are you Dougie?

Ditto! There are numerous anti-capitalists out there and most would sell their mothers to support the socialist agenda. What a great country, heh?

“House GOP leader John Boehner (Ohio)”- yeah and thanks for stopping that, Boner... how long have you been in office?

Long enough to have been part of this mess as it was growing, I bet

Memo to Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.):

ObamaCare includes a $500 billion cut to Medicare, asswipe.

Plus Death Panels as an extra bonus.

“Ridicules Obama” needs to be in a lot more sentences. In that order.
