Things must have been going wrong for the dysmenopausal Kansas school teacher, in the lower regions.

Stupid girl from Spector town hall on CNN now - "You've awakened a sleeping giant!"
What an idiot.
Healthcare isn't in the constitution.
She has never been involved in politics before _ no shit, Sherlock.
Self identified conservative republican who leans libertarian.
Asked to repeat the question.

1. She's an idiot. Her husband is self-employed and they have a high-deductible health insurance polic...
Also, she used the term "Democrat Party" so you have to wonder where little Katy the air head is getting her ideas.

4. She was not really ranting about health care
She was ranting about Obama being elected as President and the Democratic Party controlling Congress. The health care debate was just an excuse for her to rant.

8. BINGO. She was upset by TARP and the auto industry bailout.
She spouted her talking points well about not trusting the government because they don't do anything right.
What would Katy do if her husband were killed in an auto accident, or worse were horribly injured and unable to work? I'll bet she'd trust the government to provide Social Security payments to her and her children or disability payments. I'll bet she'd take CHIPS for her kids.
In the meantime, I'll bet that her insurance policy would bankrupt them if they had a truly catastrophic illness in the family. Unless they got group insurance, which is unlikely because of self-employment, they are very vulnerable to the greedy insurance companies who will scour 5 years worth of past medical records to look for an excuse to deny payment. A "preexisting condition" or an accidental omission on their application.

10. You're damned right she would!
She'd be taking advantage of every possible government program, and most likely bitching about the government all the while.
You just can't win with people like this; they are only out to spout.

2. Any more detail?
I saw her on live tv. She just went into an incoherent rant with no purpose. "We're not Russia, we're not Russia!!!"
"Is this Russia, Danny. No, this isn't Russia." Caddyshack reference there for those lacking of Chevy Chase knowledge.

7. She wasn't asked about her Russia comment because I would have loved to ask her if she realizes that Russia is no longer communist, and that they are moving toward a free market economy. She kept giggling throughout the interview like a high school girl flattered by the attention of a popular boy.
She also said that she thought the crowd at the town hall behaved well. "I was PROUD of the way the crowd behaved."

6. I would have asked her if starting an illegal war was in the Constitution whether torture and warrantless wiretapping were permitted by the founding fathers as well. Of course she probably would say that the Constitution doesn't specifically prohibit those things so it's OK.
I woke my husband up yelling at the TV. He caught the last part of her interview and said, "Why do they give these people a forum to display their ignorance as if it's something to be proud of?"

16. It's such an astonishingly LONG list in the other direction, isn't it?
Amazing how selective the righties can be on such matters.

9. She annoyed the crap out me.
How convenient for the idiot to just NOW decide to get into politics after missing the entire 8 years of that disaster called Bush. If Bush's **** ups didn't wake the sleeping giant, then I know even more that these people are full of dog shit.

11. She reminded me of one of those women standing at the foot of a tree or screaming at the Selma marchers.

12. The interviewer was awful
I would have loved to ask patriot a few questions about the constitution. Why do they give idiots like this air time?

13. Softball questions. No follow-up when Katy said something that was blatantly false. I said on another thread I felt that CNN was trying to paint this woman as mainstream and reasonable. She is EXACTLY the type of consumer that the health insurance CEOs love. An uninformed citizen who buys the type of policy that has the greatest financial risk for the consumer but the highest rate of return for the insurer.
The formica primitive, who was found to be greatly unstable by the CIA more than twenty-five years ago, and still has a grudge about it:

15. Saw another one this morning.
Don't know if this was at the Spector rally, or Obama's.
Fired-up woman: "GUESS WHAT? OBAMA ALSO INHERITED THE CRACK IN THE LIBERTY BELL AND I DON'T WANT THAT FIXED, EITHER!!!!!"
Dayum. If it weren't so ****ing dangerous, this would be hilarious.

17. Looks like Katy Abram was also on Hannity last night and was interviewed earlier on FOX as well.

Time for Katy's 15 minutes of fame to expire. She's a moron easily led by corporate interests.
You know, I'm starting to wonder if the PADemocratic primitive is the Pennsylvania equivalent of the dysmenopausal Kansas school teacher; she seems to have a great deal of unbridled hostility in her, and seems to be organically based, like there's some problems with the plumbing that makes her a female.
