Wingnut "loses it" in public

Edited on Tue Jul-08-08 06:14 PM by Cyrano
So I was picking up a prescription today and there were a lot of people on line. Some guy near me shook his head and said, "Jeez, if we have to wait much longer, Bush might just grow a brain."

Hearing his remark, an elderly, wingnut woman went berserk and screamed at him: "That's our president you're talking about. How dare you! How dare you speak about our president that way?"

The entire place went very silent and everyone looked at her like she was insane. (But then anyone who still backs Bush might very well be bordering on insanity.)

She looked around at everyone who was looking at her. "What's wrong with you people?" she said. "What ever happened to respect?" She then shut up and stared straight ahead with what I read as a look of pride at having set us all in our place.

The irony came about a minute later when another woman at the counter was told that her prescription was $312. She looked shocked and said, "Is that right? I can't afford that."

The pharmacist said that he'd double checked it and it was correct. She asked if she could pay it off, but the pharmacist sadly shook his head. She left without her prescription.

A few people turned to look at the wingnut, but she seemed to have missed the irony.

One half of a bong. At least the DUmmy Cyrano used the perfect opener "So...." to start the bouncy tale.

Right you are. All that gets is 1/2 bong for starting with "So." If a $312 dollar med bill doesn't convert you into a lifelong Demo, what will?

"I was pumping gas at the service station when I commented to myself at the top of my lungs how gas would be free if Obama were already President when this wingnut had a fit and told me that it I would still have to pay for gas no matter who's in the white house. Everyone else heard the wingnut's outrageous lie and sprayed him with their gas hoses and then set him on fire. He changed his voting preference to democratic right before he became a pile of bone and ashes. At least he can still vote for Obama this November."

And Bush is responsible for this HOW???? These idiots assume the Presidency is an omnipotent position. They THEN will make the absolute GIANT leap into saying nationalized healthcare is the answer. They don't realize that Canada's drug costs are subsidized BY US because they have nationalized healthcare. We pay for Canada drug costs because the companies would not make those drugs at the price that Canada forced on them. The companies would cease to exist - or they would simply stop making those drugs OR stop providing them to Canada altogether.

The simple DUmmy/Liberal answerfor this scenario is to Nationalize the drug industry.
Come on, where's your common sense?

So I was walking through the parkng lot of Top Foods and see a hefty lady with 20 bumper stickers on her car (Queer loving, Republican bashing, yadda, yadda) putting her groceries in her car. As I walk by I begin to laugh. She says "I dont know what your laughing about" and I said "All your bumperstickers" She says "Thank you" I said "It wasnt a compliment, I'm laughing at how stupid they look". Nothing more was said between usr althought my wife was horrified that I did that and let me know about it in the store.

I did have a monster margarita at dinner and the filter from my brain to my mouth was a bit clogged.

Did the woman's prescription have to be shipped in from Venus? $312 is b.s.

So yesterday I went to my family doc for script refills. she cut me 90 oxycodones, 90 somas, and because I was being a smart ass she gave me a script for Viagra with 2 refills. Went to my faithful CVS and dropped them off. An hour later after I languished in the Publix next door I picked up my Rx and paid a whopping $21. My wife laughed about the Viagra, but I told her to mention we had blue Genies for sale to the gay guys she works with. Being log cabin republicans I'd only charge them $5 a pill. Sold out in 5 minutes and after it was all said and done, I came out on top(pun intended) $9 in profit.
