re: #179 GeneJockey

I think #1 should be ‘erection’, and of course #4 needs to exclude Social Security and Medicare (because so many Teabaggers are on both), farm subsidies, and corporate welfare.

Teabaggers who are on Medicare don’t think it’s a Federal benefit. “I earned that!”, they’ll rant, “so it’s different from Socialized Medicine.”

Since the GOP has wanted to eliminate Medicare from the day it was created, I don’t think they’ll shy away from it now. They’ll just grandfather in the group their pollsters say they need, then screw everybody else.
