The Very Ugly Republican Face of Healthcare

I use these Letters to the Editor from the Houston Chronicle once in awhile as a reminder that the Republican ugliness that has driven this nation into the ground for the past 30 years is alive and well. The cold selfish ugliness expressed by this woman is not specific to Texas. It is specific to the Tea Parties, and the Republicans who are the Tea Parties. They make up about 1 in 3 Americans who will suffer tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, earthquakes and volcanoes to vote against anyone they perceive as smarter than they are.   

No to coddling
Health care is a priority item that American families must put in their budgets along with gas, food and electricity.
But too many people prioritize in a different direction. They would rather have designer fashions, fancy cell phones or an expensive SUV.
I don’t feel that is the responsibility of Americans who budget for and pay for health insurance to be taxed to the hilt so lazy, irresponsible citizens can have health care insurance.
Socialized medicine will ruin this country and create a class of dependent leeches that our government does not have the funds to coddle.
Linda Taylor, Baytown – Letters Houston Chronicle

This ugly selfishness is not specific to health care but resides in the black hearts of everything this Tea Party mentality sets voice to. It is simply put, we either live up to these Republican decrees, standards, and values or we die and good riddance to bad rubbish. This Republicanism comes unedited and unabridged directly from Hell. You can not only see it right there, but you can feel it in your bones.
