F**k John McCain!

I know that headline may seem harsh to some, and I apologize for being a little vulgar, but I attempted to write it a number of different ways and this version was the only one that felt right. I tell you what, YOU watch this video and see if you don't agree.



Did you hear this doddering old fool blame the partisan politics going on right on the President? Who the hell does he think he is bullshitting?

Obama has gone above and beyond the call of duty in an attempt to engage with the Republican Senators and has been rebuffed time and time again. In my opinion he has spent way too much time reaching out. You don't try to invite guests to your table when their stated intentions are to set it on fire.

From instigating their followers to disrupt town hall meetings, to making up lies about death panels, to yelling out "you lie" during a Presidential speech, these bastards have done nothing but try to derail ANY health care bill. And John McCain fucking knows it!

He also knows that the deep partisan split that started during the Clinton presidency, and deepened during the Bush years, is absolutely NOT the fault of President Obama. He is saying this on Fox News because it gives him credibility with the batshit crazy Teabagger movement that threatens to absorb his party. To survive politically he has to pander to the lowest common denominator, because the lunatics are now in charge of the mental hospital.

Because of Republican interference and disruption we now have a health care reform bill that will not accomplish a fraction of what we were promised it would. And still that is not enough for the Republicans. They are not satisfied that it is gutted, they need it to die.

Do you know why? Here let Senator Orrin Hatch explain it to you: Hatch asserted that the health bills, which he believes represent a "step-by-step approach to socialized medicine," will lead to Americans' dependence on Democrats for their health and other issues.

"And if they get there, of course, you're going to have a very rough time having a two-party system in this country, because almost everybody's going to say, 'All we ever were, all we ever are, all we ever hope to be depends on the Democratic Party,' " Hatch said during an interview with the conservative CNSNews.com.

Now do you see the problem? The Republicans KNOW that a health care reform bill will benefit the Democrats. Possibly even one as diluted as the one being drafted right now. And that scares the holy shit out of them! They are in a blind panic over losing their support in the coming elections.

So they are throwing up roadblocks, calling out insults, and refusing to participate in a last ditch effort to save their political futures. And John McCain knows this.

He knows EXACTLY what is happening and why. And yet he dares to blame the poisonous partisanship on a President who tried desperately to invite them to the party, so that THEY could enjoy the benefits of voting FOR something that will benefit the American people for decades to come.

But no. The GOP decided to gamble on sabotaging the bill so that it is a mere shadow of what it might have been, in the hopes that the American voter will be so disappointed in it that they decide to punish the Democrats and vote them out of office.

And here we are today. With a bill that has been so ravaged by Republican attacks and Democratic cowardice that this blatant interference and obfuscation may actually pay off. Which will leave both the Democratic party and the American people the losers, and the GOP victorious.

It is a blatant example of politics over people and it has been played ruthlessly by the Republican party and John McCain is just as guilty as any other member of the GOP.

So just in case you could not make out my headline, FUCK John McCain!
