My son had a rude awakening with a "friend"..
Edited on Fri Nov-13-09 04:27 PM by SoCalDem
This is a guy he's known since his early years in soccer, from age 5 -up..all though high school.. He was IN the guy's wedding..
anyway..
they went to a wine tasting with this couple and 4 other couples (they had a limo..so no DUIs ..).. My son and his wife & this other couple were the last ones to be dropped off, and on the ride to the couple's house, the guy said to my son.."I need to ask you something".. and then he dropped the lead balloon.. He asked my son to please call his congressman ( it's a woman and the guy should have known..but I digress), and tell him (her) to STOP the health care bill". My son asked him why on earth anyone with a conscience and a brain would want to do that. and the guy said .."It's about "preserving your freedom".. My son knew the guy was quite tipsy, but had to ask him.. "WHAT FREEDOM?..freedom to get sick and die without health care? and just what is your definition of freedom?".
It's a real sore spot with our son, since he was uninsured for THREE long years. he had major back surgery and 4 months later lost his insurance, so he could not afford the expensive follow up treatments he needed.. we helped him out for a while, but he finally just did the rehab himself.
He got insurance a few months ago through his job (1 year waiting period), and his ortho doc said ."Where ya been?".
the sad thing is that even though the guy was drunk, my son no longer thinks the same way about him, because he showed his selfish/stupid side..
Apparently the DUmmy was living up to its screenname when it dreamed up this gem. :thatsright:

5. This sort of thing has happened to me several times.
Once while we were at urinals in a public bathroom a friend asked me to write to Reagan about acid rain. Also, as my bride was being walked up the aisle by her father, my best man whispered that he wanted me to call my senator about the whole Rev. Moon thing. Then, about three months ago, I was skydiving with a RW friend of mine who waited until we were free-falling to hand signal that I should go with him to a Town Hall so I could hold the extra clips for his AK47. It's incredible the lengths these wingers will go to, just incredible, I tell ya.

Oh my.
Her Stoutness the silly primitive must be having a boring day, and compelled to make things up.

First of all, if the son was so close to the friend, wouldn't he already have an inkling about the friend's political leanings? And...to end a friendship with someone over their political beliefs? What is wrong with these people? They are so concerned about the state of humanity yet they have none themselves.

1 year waiting period for health insurance? I call BS right there. Even in a small company, the longest you'll wait is a couple of months. I was surprised when I first started here that I couldn't get coverage until the first day after my first complete month. My first day was September 5th, so I couldn't get coverage until November 1st, but even that wasn't horrible. Sounds like the DUmmie was unemployed for quite some time and HIPPA rules in effect meant the employer couldn't or wasn't required to provide for the period of unemployment for a pre-existing condition.

I am pretty sure he/she is making fun of the ludicrous story that was spun.
Didn`t go over to look but bet few actually get the sarcasm and will continue to lap up the obvious lies and fairy tales.

Yep! When I changed jobs, I had to wait a year to get work done on my back due to pre-existence. However, everything else was covered, so this guy likely had insurance for everything except his back.

Then I guess he has nobody to blame but Clinton--after all, HIPPA was made into law under HIS watch.

Sarcasm or not, that there is funny and like you say, DUmmies will eat it up!

Actually, HIPAA makes it easier for people with pre-ex to get insurance. Before HIPAA, employers that were self funded had some pretty crazy exclusion details. That was the only benefit of HIPAA that I have been able to find, most seems to be more stupid butt bureaucracy.

Most of them will never question that post and won't recognize the sarcasm (I think) as intended.

Only one maybe did and then wasn`t sure.

I don't know which was funnier, the Rev Moon reference or the skydiving one. :rotf:

I could never have a relationship with a liberal, so I'll never have to break one. Fortunately all my family is conservative. I could never be friends with someone who opposes everything I want for my country and my family, it's too fundamental.

Okay, which one of you guys is Dreamer Tatum?
Then DUmmy SoCalDem spins TWO, count 'em, TWO more bouncy tales on the same thread! Usually, they save their ideas for new threads:
Supplemental bouncy #1 -

19. I had a friend who turned evangelical on me, and we reached an accomodation
I told her she was at the top of my list if I ever wanted to be saved..I'd call her first.. but not to ever preach to me.. but then I would ask her to ask Jesus for a close parking place from time to time
we both held to our bargain..with one exception.. I had to quit letting my son go to Sunday school with her son when my son told me that "Craig talks in tongues..what's that, Mom".. Craig was 8..and also claimed to have seen jesus in his bathroom
From then on they were bike-riding buddies but not much more
And supplemental bouncy #2 -

26. Here's one for the record books that happened last week.
My friend who's Mexican & married to a black guy.. she shows me this "funny joke" on her phone.. first of all the damn phone is the size of a postage stamp, so I can;t even read it so she reads it to me.. I don't remember it all but it involved a pilot telling people they would have to be thrown off a plane alphabetically based on their ethnicity ( ), and it was about how the Mexicans & the black people on the plane kept changing what they wanted to be called to go further down the alphabet.. I was not amused, but they thought it was hi-lar-i-ous ..... go figure..
One thread, and DUmmy SoCalDem has completed a rare unassisted triple bouncy play!

But it was okay because it was told by ..... GET THIS ..... a Mexican and a Black person!
How original.
They reach new lows of stupid by the day.
