[calimary]

192. Wow! EXCELLENT cartoon!

And I must say I do enjoy seeing signs like that one farther back - that warns not to sign a bill you didn't read. So how 'bout we go back and revisit the Patriot Act and the Iraq War Resolution and FISA and all those lovely things that the republi-CON congress rubber-stamped in a hurry for bush without reading anything? Hey - you protesters don't want any bill signed unless it's read first, correct? That's what your sign says. Or didn't you read THAT?

However; it shouldn't be forced on anyone.

[stlsaxman]

[Segami]

161. Maybe THEY should heed THEIR own advice and enroll in some ENGLISH classes to learn how

to SPELL ' official or exceptions ' in ENGLISH..LOL!!

:rofl: :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[jhain]

171. or maybe

the cell phone stuck in her cleavage is a clue.

[johnfunk]

90. I disagree: No pubic coverage UNLESS a Brazilian is involved

"Unka Dick... how much is a brazillion?"

[ControlledDemolition]

I'm sure Sarah Palin will enlighten us all about Obama's evil 'Pussy Haircut Panel' plan very soon!!

[Mari333]

13. Oh My God

LOL

[Tansy_Gold]

14. "health care opponents" -- headline says it all

These people really are AGAINST health care for anyone but themselves.

And I dare any one of them to give up their public roads, public education, public safety officies (police, fire protection, etc.), not to mention their social security, medicare, and medicaid -- all of which are socialism at its best and most effective. Bet you $100 there wouldn't be a single taker.


Tansy Gold, socialist and damn proud of it

[Fire1sKid]

95. Tansy I couldnt agree more...

PROUD SOCIALIST

[Swagman]

98. yeh..another PROUD socialist here from generations of them...and we are happy

to pay taxes to pay for roads, bridges , infrastructure, hospitals, pensions and a good health system for all!!

[DeeDeeNY]

159. It's whatever Rush and Glenn tells them.

How can they be so stupid as to be against something that would benefit them??? And they're angry about it! What a bunch of idiots.

[Jackpine Radical]

163. And obviously against MENTAL health care for themselves too.

[lunatica]

15. That explains why they're so angry

[opihimoimoi]

16. I'm looking at the WERES THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE ? ...do my eyes see it right?

[Lex]

25. Ha! You're correct.

Didn't catch that before.

OMG.

[opihimoimoi]

76. Oh Crap...LOL...thought we had another to add

[TahitiNut]

18. The stupid is strong in that one, grasshopper.

She DOES, however, seem to be able to open her mouth wide without showing her teeth. (I seem to recall, from my school days, that was some kind of asset.)

[AnotherDreamWeaver]

41. and young for false teeth.... (grin at your thinking)

[blondeatlast]

46. Pervert.

[oldironside]

208. Karl Marx may have been wrong about a lot things...

... but he hit the nail on the head when he said it was about class and consciousness. And these people are unconsciousness.

[SammyWinstonJack]

221. +1 I can't even laugh at their stupid misspelled signs. These people? These self-absorbed, selfish

people will screw health care reform up, for us all. They don't want a 'pubic':silly: option, don't want single payer, don't want socialism? Fine by me. They don't have too participate IN/partake OF anything that is socialism in our government either. GET OFF MEDICARE STAY OFF PUBLIC ROADS,etc.


Non-thinking morans. :argh:

Another sign in that shot is spelled wrong too. Teh stupid! :rofl:

[emulatorloo]

32. HILARIOUS -- great catch!!!! n/t

[KamaAina]

33. So that means no Viagra coverage?

:P

[Hekate]

judithf. Her response was right on the mark.

[AnotherDreamWeaver]

64. You're right about judithf, but the up thread by Michael E. Hyers, Master Sergeant, USAF (Re

Proud to be the "New Klu Klux Klan"
outrageous. But I'm sure he had no problems with the little shrub who DESERTED THE TEXAS AIR NATIONAL GUARD!!!!!!

No choice in shaving or what? :shrug:


Boy is she going to be embarrassed when she figures it out...she must have looked up socialism...

[Kievan Rus]

40. Another Freeper sign

This is hilarious.

[Hepburn]

44. Does that mean mandatory bikini waxes for all?

:shrug:

[Stephanie]

86. Beat me to it!

:hi:

[4lbs]

45. I agree with that sign. Women should have the right to go "pubicless" if they want.

:D

[Strong Atheist]

48. You mean I have a CHOICE? Why didn't anyone tell me that? I think I will be female on odd days and

male on even days...

[TahitiNut]

49. Lots of Medicare recipients there protesting "socialism" and "government hands off" ...

If they have a single IQ point, it's lonely. The STOOPID is strong in them.

[Jkid]

56. If they recieve medicare, how come we have not heard arguments for privitizing medicare?

n/t

[Uncle Joe]

50. What a bummer. I was hoping to get a Pubic Option tonight.

[Cha]

52. She's a real brilliant piece of

shite.

[nadinbrzezinski]

54. Well I do agree with her

we really do not want a PUBIC option.... I mean as puritan as we are as a country.

Quick lady... define socialism while we are at it.

LOL

[Raine1967]

55. Wait! I thought they LOVED Bush!

[frogcycle]

150. best response yet! nt

[Bobbie Jo]

58. Speak for yourself, lady.

Good Grief, teh stoopid is out in force.:rofl:

[Jkid]

59. I bet these anti-reformers don't have any health insurance.

Kick and rec for the lulz.

[XemaSab]

60. My mom is an editor for an environmental consulting firm

ALWAYS run a search for the word pubic. ALWAYS.

I guess that doesn't apply with handwritten signs, though.

[krispos42]

61. But New Jersey just banned brazillian bikini waxes!

[blondeatlast]

62. Low cut black dress, No pubic option, no socialism, no single payer. She wants a good ol' fashioned

Commie orgy, is that it?

Teh stoopid, it hu--makes me laugh!

[krispos42]

what the hell does that mean?:shrug:

[SOS]

66. Having (painfully) examined every photo in this series

it appears that there were about 40 people.

Dear Losers,

This is what a REAL protest looks like, with half a million people:

[cui bono]

120. They've never seen one cuz they don't show them on the teevee...

especially not on Faux.

[proud patriot]

67. LOL

Oh I'm sending that out

[proud2BlibKansan]

68. Great catch!

I will add to my collection.

[ncteechur]

69. All they forgot were the hoods and robes

[liberalhistorian]

71. Damn right-wingers, always trying to

take any form of sex away from us or ruin it! :evilgrin:

[mitchum]

73. A return to Barbie and Ken as the founders intended!

[Contrary1]

74. We need to stand with them at their protests

carrying the most idiotic signs we can think of. Lots of mispelled words and lunacy. Stuff like "Glenn Beck Is Are Saveur". They wouldn't even notice. Make sure it's caught on camera.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

75. Another sign in that series:

Right to health care to the right to die to the duty to die for the greater good = the slippery slope


:wtf: :wtf: :wtf: :wtf: :rofl: :banghead:

[JBoy]

77. Bush supporter comes out of the woodwork

[Canuckistanian]

78. "Pubic options" are not for public display

(Warning: sexism alert)
Although, I'm willing to give the sign holder a private meeting to discuss said options.

[EVDebs]

79. Reminds me of a tee-shirt I saw: "I'm not a doctor, but I'll look anyway" nt

[mimitabby]

82. incredible!

:kick:

[crazy_vanilla]

[ControlledDemolition]

133. ... as long as it isn't a 'Kenyan Wax' right wingers are relatively happy! n/t

[HughMoran]

96. Ignant rednecks

They make me laugh - fucking ignorant morons.

[HughBeaumont]

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

109. shit. thats from my state. Says something about our educational system.

how fracking embarrassing.

[BattyDem]

110. No pubic option!

"What is all this fuss I hear about Health Care Reform having a pubic option? It's terrible! A person's pubic region should be private and not subjected to any government interference! I believe people should ... what? Oh, that's very different. Never mind."

[snake in the grass]

111. They are so fucked up!

The pubic option is even more important than the public one!

[Swagman]

112. is it just me or does everyone in every demo pic I see seem to be white???

[mwb970]

151. 100% white, 100% dumb, and 100% wrong.

It's a clean sweep!

[HughBeaumont]

213. For their side, yes.

They're also mostly older, and on Medicare, which they think isn't a government program for some reason.

[Starry Messenger]

113. Oh dear god.

Does this have something to do with all these "cosmetic" abortions I keep hearing about?

[Jennicut]

115. For the love of humanity, why can't the Crazies learn to spell?

Do they need spell check for signs?
Oh, and thought they were interested in controlling our bodies down "there" and therefore would be FOR the pubic option. LOL

[cui bono]

116. lmao... then cmao (crying my ass off) at the pathetic stupidity

OK I'VE GOT ANOTHER GREAT WAY TO SAVE AMERICA MONEY, HOW ABOUT ALL THOSE THAT WANT TO SAY NO TO SOCIALIZED MEDICINE DONT GET MEDICAID WHEN THEY TURN 65, WE SHOULDN'T FORCE IT ON THEM IF THEIR SO AGAINST IT, LET ANARCHY REIGN IN THEIR LIVES.

Looks like a lot of people in that area are embarrassed by these bozos.

[B Calm]

152. They pointed out to so called Sarge, that he's a fucking dumb ass!

[Delver Rootnose]

121. unless the back of the ...

[oldironside]

199. thank you...

... you've just given me the biggest laugh I've had all day.

[DainBramaged]

125. I wonder how they'd feel if 500 angry Black people showed up to counter-protest?

Think they would

A) Run

B) Call the police

C)Shit their pants

D) All of the above.

[JI7]

142. they (and the media) would call them rioters

[DainBramaged]

164. Mostly women at this protest, I guess they think that makes a difference

but that clown in the black dress will forever join moran man as a symbol of the ignorance that is Conservatism (with no PUBLIC school option).

[Hippo_Tron]

126. Uh oh, looks like moran guy's offspring are on the loose

[Beartracks]

141. OMG, You think he exercised his pubic option? n/t

[Hippo_Tron]

143. What I want to know is if it's a strong or a weak pubic option

[DeepBlueC]

127. no pubic option ...birth control for morans

I'm for it! Extinction is an exciting prospect! :P

[gauguin57]

129. Hey! Does that mean my gynecological visits won't be covered?

I want my pubic option!

[TommyPaine]

134. Oh, at first I thought this was an abstinence-only rally.

Hopefully none of the people in that crowd plan on procreating in any case. And hey, at least the woman can use that same sign again for a pro-abstinence gathering.

[cascadiance]

135. But even the party of no, wants to finger the pubic option...

[chknltl]

136. She should be a guest on the Daily Show

Jon: "Now Tell me the truth, you aren't really into politics are you????" You just did that to get a gig on Are You Smarter Than A Third Grader!"...."Oh you ARE into politics...." :popcorn:

[ccharles000]

137. lol

[Beartracks]

139. If you didn't read it, don't protest it! n/t

[alphafemale]

144. Check out the woman in the red shirt on the left side. Too lazy to actually march?

I can't see what her sign says, though.

[indimuse]

146. "As an Australian"

<snip>

Michael E. Hyers, Master Sergeant, USAF (Ret)
Sat, 08/15/2009 - 23:50 — Mickeyde
As an Australian I may be butting in here where I'm not wanted but I'd like to give some observations on our system of universal health care we have enjoyed since 1973 in my country. First- thank you Mr Myers for your military service-we Aussies have never forgotten the Yanks saved out bacon in the South Pacific in WW2 and we cherish the special friendship that has been forged between our 2 countries.
All political parties in Australia from conservative to liberal and everyone in between now support the public option where everyone has access to good medical care. In fact, the last very conservative PM who got on pretty well with your last president tried to find ways to improve the system-and all public infrastructures need improvement- and he succeeded. In the past 6 years I've had 2 full knee replacements, something I could never have afforded by going private. All I paid for was my TV rental in hospital and taxi-fare home (although the free hospital bus would have got me there).

But nothing is free of course in the end-we pay a medicare supplement in our taxes and we pay it every week but over a few decades that adds up of course and all those years when I haven't needed medical help-suddenly it's there just when I do and haven't got the cash. I see it as no different than paying taxes to build roads, schools , highways and everything else. Plus the government covers the un-employed. pensioners and so on.

Plus of course there is a private option for those who want gold plated treatment away from the hoi polloi like me but I'm happy in the public ward and the doctors are just the same so -whatever !.

I think you should look carefully at the plan eventually your leaders offer you as it your country and your health but I honestly think many Americans are over-reacting to something that we, most of Europe and Scandanavian countries just take for granted now-a right to medical treatment which we don't regard as a luxury and which 90% of doctors and nurses support. I also lived in the UK for 10 years and the British National Health system can be aggravating and unwieldy at times, always underfunded but most problems there are caused by bureaucracy.-and the Brits invented the word and know more ways to complicate any system!.

It's up to you guys in the end-but you should examine what is on offer very minutely. We did back in 1973..gave it a go and we have never looked back.

154. I have long been an advocate for the pubic option.

I simply don't split hairs when it comes to that.

[daggahead]

156. They want their freedom ...

[tj2001]

I'm certain her son's teachers, her ex-husband, etc. would just LOVE a well-framed photo of that...

:evilgrin:

[taggline]

160. LMAO

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Strong Atheist]

198. Welcome to DU!

:toast:

[Noorvik]

165. Pubic Option

Wa'll, I hafta disagree with that young ladies sign about this here 'pubic' option ....
ya' never know when you might need some out patient pubic care ... and Lord knows
how hard it is to find a good hooker who'll take Medicare!

[LeftishBrit]

166. 'No Sex Please, We're Birthers'?

[blondeatlast]

168. ...

:spray:

[Aviation Pro]

169. They see "death panels"....

...I see a lot of overweight, melanoma-at-risk, stupid people.

They are their own death panels.

[pleah]

172. K&R Makes you wonder if any of these people made it out of grade school.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[johncoby2]

173. The frickin idiot is in a wheelchair for gosh frickin sakes!!!!

Which she probably got via medicare.

[Kajsa]

176. Oh,no!

Get these people a dictionary, PLEASE!

[neuvocat]

179. I don't get it.

The White House will probably drop the public option. If people don't want an option, they're not given that option now it looks like.

[Kajsa]

181. I don't get it,either.

They don't want to have a choice?

Why the hell not?

These people stopped making sense
a long time ago.

:(

[tanyev]

182. Dictionaries are tools of liberal fascists!

Telling people how words should be spelled and pronounced. I mean, really.

[Kajsa]

187. LOL!

Good one.

:) :hi:

[sakabatou]

180. I'm sure she doesn't want crabs either...

[bananas]

183. Direct link to the original

[Kajsa]

184. To the man with the,

'If you didn't read it, don't sign it'
sign,

How about,

If you didn't read it,
don't protest it!

?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

185. You know, I really thought a pubic option would resonate with Americans

Considering how pubic oriented our culture is said to be. I'm really surprised to see the pubic lobbyist weren't able to get this one through.

:rofl:

[tooeyeten]

186. This is what happens when you scare people

That's all the Repulicans have, fear.

[jimlup]

188. They way I read it took me awhile...

:rofl:

[whopis01]

189. as funny as it is, it appears to be altered.

The way the word "Pubic" is shifted over to the right further than the two words below it is one sign. Also, looking at the image, there appears to be some horizontal streaking that (when you zoom in) goes horizontal relative to the image, not relative to the sign - that looks like someone took a vertical column of pixels and copied it several times to blank out an area of the sign (where the word originally began).

I may be wrong - but since there is no second photo of the same sign, I tend to believe it is a doctored image.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

194. Nope. Here's the source and it's the same

It's the second pic in the slideshow.

http://blogs.newsobserver.com/multi/first-look-health-care-opponents-protest-in-raleigh

[whopis01]

215. I didn't claim this poster altered it - just that it appeared altered

That is the exact same image. Show me the same sign in a different photo and I will believe that it is real - but just showing the same image over again means nothing.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

218. It's a Staff photo by Corey Lowenstein

As are all the photos used in the newspaper's slide show, as you can plainly see from the original source.

I've no idea what you're alleging unless it's that the newspaper's staff photographer would do such a thing. Which is quite simply an unbelievable allegation.

[juno jones]

191. Does a pubic option cover asshole bleaching?

Not like those assholes could be any whiter...

[KyleA]

193. How about a landing strip compromise?

Never liked hairy muffs anyway! LOL

[jimshoes]

209. Hear Hear!

That's what this country needs right now is a good "Landing Strip" compromise.:evilgrin:

[peekaloo]

195. Gubmint gots us by the short hairs!

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

201. the truth is finally revealed

Its an Obama plot!

[Laelth]

196. LOL. No pubic option?

That's my favorite remedy for whatever ails me. Repubican prudes! No wonder the demographics are against them.

:rofl:

:dem:

-Laelth

[jimshoes]

200. Funny how every protest seems to have just enough

protesters to fill up a bus. Hmmm?

[Rex]

203. I agree with her, there should be no pubic option!

I mean...that is how we ended up with Clarence Tomas.

[and-justice-for-all]

204. Fine, no Socialism...NO rmore Medicaid/Care, no more roads...

and no more social services!!!

[Bjorn Against]

205. If you go through the pictures at your link you will also find this one

I don't know if the guy holding this sign realizes quite how appropriate it is.

[The Gunslinger]

206. I drove past them on Friday...

And I let them all know that they were number 1.

[DollyM]

207. Jeff Foxworthy would be proud . . .

All I can think of when I see this sign is the line from that song . . . "here's your sign . . ." Or let's quote Forrest Gump "stupid is as stupid does."

I give people a lot of leeway when it comes to message boards as they are generally typing fast. Typo's happen, but to make a sign that you intend to take out in public and not bother to check the spelling first is just plain stupid.

[AspenRose]

210. Does this have anything to do with OB/Gyns practicing their love with women?

:dunce:

[Sheltiemama]

211. "Children are state property under communism."

I saw this on a sign outside a car wash today in Knoxville, Tenn. I'd rather lick my car clean than patronize this business.

[undeterred]

212. I wonder if they're against pubic transportation too.

[ffellini7080]

214. F*cking sick bastards

Makes me ashamed to be American sometimes.

[LeftHander]

216. Does this mean it will be left to grow wild...??

That is bad.

[wiseoldmanskid]

220. This is classic

This sign says so much about so many wrongs that are in our country
