Let Em Die! The Baggers cheer on death

[tishaLA]

during the debate. Even Ron Paul sounds more reasonable than the crowd.

This tops last week's cheering of Perry executing 234 people.

1. This absolutely is thread worthy - I would have started one if you didn't.

[bluestateguy]

2. Context please?

For those of us who cannot bear to watch.

[Parker CA]

4. Hypothetical situation with 30 year old in intensive care without insurance and needing six months

of care. Should we just let him die was the question. Cheers of YEEAHH and YESS and lots of clapping.

Truly disgusting. Didn't think they could eclipse the death penalty cheer, but they did.

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. OMG....they are mentally DERANGED! Seriously sick people.

:scared:

[Cali_Democrat]

20. WTF?!?!?!

[polly7]

32. What ????

That's probably one of the ugliest things I've ever heard.

[NMMNG]

33. Too bad he wasn't a fetus

They'd be all for him getting whatever he needed if he was. They're only "pro-life" until you're born. Then you better fend for yourself or die 'cause they sure as hell don't give a shit about you.

[tishaLA]

5. Wolf asked Paul, because he's a doctor, what would happen

if we repealed "Obamacare" and someone came to the hospital uninsured. "Should we let him die?"

YEAH! Let him DIE!, screamed the crowd.

Even Paul in all his craziness seemed taken aback.

[tsuki]

10. Did Paul reply? And what state is this whatever in? nt

[tishaLA]

13. It's in FL. Honestly, I don't remember Paul's response because

I was so shocked at the crowd's reaction. It was crazy.

[elleng]

18. Paul responded, among other things,

'I'm a doctor, worked in blah blah blah hospital, we never turned anyone down; churches covered it.' Crowd cheered.

Fine, let them OTHERS do it, not in MY back yard.

OH JEEZE, watching Rachel Show now.

7. Blitzer asked Ron Paul

"What about the poor man with no health care in the emergency room? Should we just let him die?"

A round of applause and a few cheers of "Yeah!" rose up from the audience in response to that proposal.

[The Gunslinger]

28. I think I'm going to buy a truck so I can put that bumper sticker on it.

[high density]

11. Blitzkreig asked a question

A healthy 30 year old young man doesn't buy health insurance because he feels he doesn't need it. Then he gets sick and requires care. Who is going to pay for if he goes in a coma. Who pays for that?

Paul says he needs to assume responsibility for himself and have the health insurance policy. "Freedom is about taking your own risks."

"Congressman, are you saying that society should just let him die?"

Multiple shouts from the crowd: yeah!

Paul then goes on about saying churches will take care of these people.

[bluestateguy]

26. The churches will take care of the people who they choose to save

And therin lies the problem with private charity. Donors get to pick and choose who is to be saved and who is deemed unworthy and allowed to fall into the abyss.

[daggahead]

3. Why is there a song by Cypress Hill going through my head ...

... when I read what is going on at the so-called debate.

[teddy51]

6. I guess we are finally getting the reallity that the Baggers are crazier than

the Repugs. Holy crap, who would of thunk that possible?

[Joe the Revelator]

8. Who are these people?? It's just ugly.

[daggahead]

9. I could get up there, and do the armpit farting thing ...

... and sound more intelligent than these freaks.

[Fire Walk With Me]

15. They'd probably misunderstand and attempt to elect you.

:D

[Denninmi]

12. It sounds like they've come up with the Reich answer.

I guess this would be the Fourth one.

[m1049]

14. It's pretty easy to get

Right-wingers are just bad people. How hard is it to understand?

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Not always. But that is pretty sad.

:hi:

[Raine]

22. Not bad but ill-informed because all they listen to is Faux

I bet they had a hard time even finding CNN to watch this. Probably the first time they ever put it on.

[m1049]

25. Ill-informed?

I don't blame someone for believing something incorrect because he or she has been misled.

But cheering death? That's not an issue of fact; that's an issue of morality, or lack thereof.

[FiveGoodMen]

35. I'm with you!

No excuse could cover their behavior.

[mmonk]

19. Several descriptions in this thread. Which is accurate?

[tishaLA]

21. I'd say post 11 is closest

[mmonk]

23. Thanks.

[Tx4obama]

24. Pauls answer was ridiculous

Ron Paul thinks family, friends and CHURCHES should help pay the hospital bills of the uninsured.
No way that will happened!

[IndyPragmatist]

27. The Franciscan Hospitals in Indiana will always take you and cover you

I've used them before during a period when I did not have coverage.

Remember, religion may make some do crazy things, but it can make others do some truly great things. The hospitals throughout our nation that are supported by churches are something we all should be proud of.

[Tx4obama]

30. Not every town has a hospital supported by the church

Just look at the 50 million dollar hospital bill on the link below:

Giants fan's medical costs to top $50M
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-wires/20110912/us-giants-fan-attacked-medical/

Churches do not have enough money to take care of all the uninsured folks in America.

There is a good reason 'why' there is medicare, medicaid, etc -- it is needed!

[Lorien]

29. They can never again claim to be "Christians". nt

[reformist2]

31. I only heard a few say that, but the fact is Repugs condone such outbursts of hatred and ill will.

[bvar22]

34. The problem is NOT the 30 yr old without insurance.

The Problem is the Private, For-Profit Health Care delivery system in America,
and the "historic" Health care "Reform" only made it worse.

In EVERY other civilized country, access to health Care is a RIGHT,
and the citizens are NOT divided into haves & have nots where Health care is concerned.


A 30 yr old without Insurance is an unknown in every other civilized country In The World!
The term "Medical Bankruptcy" is unknown in every other civilized country In The World!


...but our Ruling Class Elites have decided that Lower Class Americans (the bottom 98%) will just have to settle for FAR LESS.


You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.

Solidarity!
The problem I have with "Centrists" is that they agree with Republicans.
