Hard sell: Going door-to-door for Obamacare. “Non-partisan” Obamacare evangelists go door-to-door spreading the manure good news about the Holey Redeemer’s healthcare scam, and get about the reaction you’d expect. “’Obamacare!’ says Shirtless, elbowing Pitbull. Pitbull then starts making finger-pistol signs directing me down the street. ‘Keep on walking with Obamacare,’ he says, still convulsing.” And that was one of the friendlier ones.

Hey maybe they can work with Jehovah Witnesses. That way I only have to abruptly shut the door once.
ooooooo i like that. :D
Two little condescending white girls go door-to-door in a minority neighborhood telling them, in a totes non-partisan way, just how great the ACA is. The neighborhood all laughs at them and say, no, its ObamaCare. Police show up while they are talking to a black dude. Police motion, black dude rolls his eyes and walks over the the cops. Cops say, no, we want to talk to the two little condescending white girls. They tell the girls there have been complaints, and they need a permit to go door to door. The two little NON-PARTISAN, condescending white girls blink... WHA??? But we are doing Obama's bidding.... yeah, you still need a permit. Black dude laughs. See, don't you hate it when the government tells you to do something, but try to stop you from doing it at the same time? LOL
Didn't Hitler have a bunch of guys like this?
*knock knock*
"Good morning sir, we'd like to share some important information about the ACA with you, do you have just two minutes to spare?"
*knock knock*
"Good afternoon sir. Sir, if you fell grievously ill this evening, have you given any thought to where you would spend your convalescence?"
*knock knock*
"We’re encouraging folks to read the Affordable Care Act. The answers that it gives to important questions often surprise people."
*knock knock*
"Brother, if you broke your leg, are you certain in your heart that your doctor bills would get paid?"
If the Obamadeathcare minions come a knockin', I will do what a roommate of mine did in college when the local religious cult came a knocking on our apartment door..he got naked and answered the door and asked if they would like to join the Church of low hanging fruit instead of their cult.....They RAN away....and In Kalifornia I would be just another naked guy well within my rights....Use the bizarre rules to your benefit........
My best friend in High School did the same thing to Jehovah Witnesses... Except she told them she was in a Satanic Cult.
I usually ask them if they are a virgin, since we need one for the sacrifice.
So far, no takers.
I saw this earlier and while liking the gist of it, that Beamer snark at the beginning turned my stomach and still does. Am I being too sensitive or was that totally classless and more in line with the Mahers of the world?
I dunno Ghost, I personally think it is the sensitive thing.
I saw it as merely a play on words, a bad one IMO.
But that's just me.
ok, at least we agree it was tacky. Uncalled for IMHO to make the article work, just really honked me off at a gut level when I read it. I just put it in my calendar to mail me the link in three days, see if it hits me again. T'anx for the feedback oodone.
Maybe it's me, but I hardly even noticed it.
" I’m feeling like whatever Obama cliché you can think of. And all I want to say, like the late Todd Beamer before me, is, “Let’s roll.” Or more like, “Let’s enroll.” Because much as Beamer, God rest his soul, took on the terrorists who tried to take down America, we are now in a similar cataclysmic fight:"
Like I said, maybe just me but uncalled for and tacky... more tomorrow after a replay but it was classless and not needed to make the point of the article. We'll review after [_]3 and some sleep in the a.m. but right now I don't think so.
See ya then, this is why without the trolls we can have a discussion, ya know?
ps I liked the pinhead AVI better. And that was tongue-in-cheek, why I love this site so much.
Ya know, I've been wanting to rotate back to that, but I can't find anywhere in the profile settings now to change your avatar!
Yea, you have to go to gravatar.com and change it there.
I'm having a bit of trouble with it right now, it keeps wanting to enlarge my new avatar and I can't get it to work.
Send it to me and I'll repixelate the sucker right quick and ship it back to you.
It was Gravatar, not the avi.
I had to wait a couple of days for it to log me out, so I could start over.
At gravatar? I just changed mine yesterday.
http://www.gravatar.com ?
I thought I was set up right from here, not through something else. I can't get into Gravatar for this account, only one of my other secret identities I don't want to mess with.
Ah, there we go . . .I think . . had to go in through Wordpress.
good on ya mate
pss we can go back to the arctic garden gnome if you want, remember that one too. Unless it got lost in space somewhere...
totally classless and more in line with the Mahers of the world?
with the foot soldiers of Get Covered America, the boots-on-the-ground division* of Enroll America**, which bills itself as a “nonpartisan 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to maximize the number of uninsured Americans who enroll in health coverage made available by the Affordable Care Act.”
* read invasion.
** i want to vomit. would like to show these pukes what a real soldier is, and can do. suck-ass barry minions.
So, Obamacare has gone Jehova's Witness?
In my State ( Idaho ) if you'd knock on the door to discuss obummercare, you'd end up looking at the business end of a shotgun.
And the Sheriff would be glad to come out and arrest those jokers on a trespass technicality. :)
Door to door cold calling - welcome to cutting edge 19th Century marketing, Mr. President.
Looks like I'll have to dust off my "Solicitors Will Be Shot" sign.
