HCR Kabuki on TV. Has anyone besides me noticed

[OffWithTheirHeads]

The Repuks have a stack of paper on the podium about two feet thick which they would like us to believe is the HUGE, GINORMOUS health care bill. ALL TWO THOUSAND PAGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I just stacked up 2000 pages of heavy stock paper and the stack is only four inches high.

These people are so full of shit.

1. Nice one!!!

Change spelling to "Kabuki" so people get it, ok? You still have time to edit.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

3. Done!, Thanks.

[aSpeckofDust]

2. you gotta remember..

their stack is 2000 pages, 4000 words long document.

[Lindsay]

4. It's seemed to me

that their stack has kept growing as the debate has gone on.

But they wouldn't do something that dishonest, would they?

[backscatter712]

5. Saw that too.

I also noticed that a few of the Democrats had real copies of the bill with them, that were about four inches high, as you discovered.

6. It's the BIG TYPE VERSION, done in Laddie pencil and Crayon, for ease of reading

by the Republicans.

Pictures from My Pet Goat have been dispersed throughout the document to remind them of their finest hour.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

7. Well, that explains it cause we all know the pukes are visually impared

Maybe we can get them some vision care after the bill passes.

8. Their target audience doesn't read, so they won't get it.

[HughMoran]

9. & the words per page is low due to large type and massive margins

This is a lame argument by the 'Pukes, but what else is new. When you have no arguments, substitute idiotic theatrics.

[Sanity Claws]

10. 2000 pages is 4 reams of paper

Ever buy copying paper at Staples or other office supply store? Each package is 500 pages; four of those reams is about 6 to 8 inches.
Sorry, it is more than 4 inches.

[TCJ70]

13. I was just thinking the same thing...

...I wonder if OffWithTheirHeads has ever worked in an office...

[OffWithTheirHeads]

16. Your point? 4 inches? 6 inches? Still dos'nt = 2 feet

Which is MY point.

The Repukes are a bunch of lying, duplicitous, assholes who have nothing to offer but stunts. Stunts like the stack of blank paper on the podium. Stunts as depicted in the picture below from this thread http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...



How many reams of paper from your office is on that roll?

The Repukes think that running our country is just one big drunken frat party.

I saw bullshit and I called bullshit.

Which was also my point.

11. My favorite was the Republican who pretended to throw his back out while carrying the bill.

He was carrying it up to the podium and suddenly clutched his back and said "oof", then recovered and said, "no, I'm okay".

[elehhhhna]

12. THEIR "bill" is printed on 2=ply.

so it's bigger

[graywarrior]

14. It's like reading The Stand twice and Carrie once!

[Avalux]

15. Yes they are. They got nuthin' - no alternative.

But that doesn't prevent them from grandstanding with reams of blank paper pretending they do. The saying "the end justifies the means" should be their motto.
