Jon Stewart Rips Obama on Wounded Vet Policy

Whomever floated this idiotic lead balloon of an idea should be fired! Even the Democrats are angry for being put in such an ugly position. Even Obama fan John Stewart sees this idea for what it is…idiotic! Thank goodness it’s such a horrible idea Congress will never touch it with Obama’s gloves.

    I cannot believe they are giving free housing and healthcare to illegal aliens, like Obama’s aunt in Boston, but cannot pay for healthcare and housing for soldiers,sailors and airmen and women, who are injured protecting us.
    This is disgusting and shows Obama is in WAY over his head.

    The idea is idiotic, but it does have an upside – it makes Obama look horrifically incompetent and downright terrible even to his own supporters. Eesh, I’m sure others have considered this, but were smart enough not to say it out loud or do anything about it.

    It doesn’t matter what anybody thinks because BHO has decided to put this in effect through “reconciliation” which means that it is tacked onto some other bill like the budget which has already been approved by Congress. Thus it will be done, but never put up to a vote. That’s how it’s done in Amerika comrades!

    Who thought of it? It screams of Orszag. He’s the ultimate “I know what’s best for you and we’re going to do it whether you like it or not” fascist, pencil-necked geek so far.

    Seeking Republican Congress to kick sand in this little puke’s face.

    The idea is very good as it does what conservatives keep claiming they want done and that is make the big government smaller.

    The insurance companies should not be bailed out by the government in the name of helping veterans.

    There are possibly some shortfalls such as increased premiums for Vets but that can be worked out by subsidizing or paying the increase in premium. That would not even happen with group insurance as showing such an attitude to the vets would make insurance companies look bad. I am not even sure it would happen with individual insurance for much the same reason.

    Bully ! Bully for Jon Stewart. Should we run him up a flag pole and salute or offer his name as a write-in for 2012 elections?
