32. Part of the problem

is that the pukes--and corporate dems who support these policies--write the legislation so that often the consequences don't take effect until long after the bill is passed. Also, the legislation gets passed often in virtual secrecy, without the worthless corporate media reporting on the provisions and their impact on voters.

So, it's even more difficult for the dimwitted and malinformed to understand the cause-and-effect relationship between voting puke and diminishing quality of life.

The difference now is that the health care legislation is being better covered in real time. Also, there are no dem majorities to hide behind in congress.

Nevertheless, many of the dumbasses who vote puke will continue to support these monsters. The pukes count on it. Plus, pukes are confident that they can rig the 2018 and 2020 elections through voter suppression and gerrymandering.
