2. Oh please help your friends in Iowa remove this curse from our land.

I am expecting DU to target Grassley next year.
I will be posting info on another challenger Friday.

Jesus.

what he thinks is electability. And that he is a liar.

6. I hope grandma pulls the plug on you! The Senate doesn't need you. nt

7. Damn I hate these people. Grassley is just a clumsy dickhead . . .

but the "regular Americans" spewing their racist bilge and fact-free crap as if it makes them better than anyone else just sets my teeth on edge. This is the same crowd of troglodytes that followed Palin around last election.

I'm living outside the States now. I'm not coming back. If anyone asks, I'm Canadian.

And does anyone know how to disable the incredibly knuckleheaded RFID chip they embedded in my new passport? I'd just as soon not broadcast my nationality to every terrorist on the planet when I travel.

14. I'd try putting the passport in an anti-static metallic mylar bag and see. It kills my phone.

There's always a lead paint wallet. heheheh

[MrModerate]

17. Apparently they sell "attenuation sleeves" purpose-made to kill the signal . . .

Of course, the passport can still be read once you remove it from the sleeve and especially when you open the cover. Some say from a distance of 30 feet! Mind numbingly stupid practice. Thanks again, 9/11 pants-pissers, for yet another brainless response to mass murder: a way for mass murderers to be selective!

Wired magazine has a low-tech solution: give the back cover of the passport a couple of whacks with a hammer. Of course, they go on to point out that it's against the law to tamper with a passport, and the penalty can be 25 years.

8. He made no sense.

Notice how he didn't say there WAS a government policy to pull the plug.

Notice how he talked about end of life counseling...and then said there shouldn't be counseling at the end of life. Two completely different things. You CAN have end of life counseling 20 years ahead of time, and it's still end of life counseling. He never mentioned the new plan would PAY for such counseling...whenever you have it....only if you want to.

He's lying with semantics....and he knows it. What a sneaky heel.

And the rubes who don't know how to think, listen, or reason fell for it.

Pitiful

9. I am really having a problem with these knowledgeable well educated

Congressmen who insist on affirming the "crazies" wild ideas.


Grassley is a highly experienced Senator. He knows better.

[Bleacher Creature]

10. I see this as a good thing.

Whether it be for political reasons or because he truly feels an obligation to do so, President Obama has gone out of his way to reach across the aisle in order to find "bipartisan" solutions to everything. Each time he's done so, these jackasses do nothing to justify his efforts and prove time and time again that they have no desire to do anything but obstruct progress.

Grassley was one of the Senators who the President CALLED OUT BY NAME at his press conference as someone he thinks he can work on health care reform. For Grassley to go out and makes a statement like this 24 hours later should expedite what we all know is coming, which is the President finally realizing that you can't work with these people on anything.

11. Liar. Despicable K and R for the Iowans. CALL HIM and demand a very public retraction eom

[scarface2004]

12. however grandpa is screwed!!!

so long pappy...have a good trip!!!

[tomm2thumbs]

13. three quarters of a century not wearing very well on this idiot

if this doesn't' make folks realize how the 'moderates' are playing the Democrats for everything they're worth, nothing will.

He's a waste of space.

[ScottLand]

15. Be afraid.

Be very afraid. And start gathering stakes to use on the liberal vampires!:scared:

I just don't know what to say anymore. The only thing these people have lost so far is their common sense.

[indimuse]

16. Wasn't the *End of Life*

counselling amendment put in by another Repuke?? I though I heard that on Rachel Maddow or Randi Rhodes....


That man needs HIS Public Paid HC pulled!!!!
