Health Care BS

If you have still have any doubt that the President, Nancy Pelosi and congressional Democrats in general regard the voters with utter contempt, Madam Speaker’s explanation of Obamacare will eradicate it:

It’s like the back of the refrigerator. You see all these wires and the rest … All you need to know is, you open the door. The light goes on.

What to say about this? I’ll go with the words of Neo-Neocon:

What an oily, condescending, manipulative, lying piece of work she is … to use such a metaphor to refer to a bill that affects us all in such important ways is outrageously and offensively paternalistic.

That about sums it up. But I will add that I would have expected Pelosi, being a Democrat, to steer away from the refrigerator metaphor. I mean, it conjurs that whole cash-in-the-freezer image, does it not?

Well, one has to consider the source, I guess. Nancy isn’t the brightest bulb in the fridge.
