Facing opposition to his health care reform proposals, President Barack
Obama has decided to reach out to a key demographic: morons.

Starting this week, Mr. Obama will host a series of town halls to roll
out new features of his health care plan which will extend health care
coverage to "all idiotic Americans," in the words of one White House source.

"We clearly underestimated the role that doofuses and dimwits were going
to play in this debate," the source said. "We want to send them the
message that this plan will give them coverage - but we need to come up
with a one-syllable word for ‘coverage.'"

But critics of the President's new plan worry that extending coverage to
every American who is a few bricks shy of a load could triple the size
of the nation's deficit.

"The sheer number of lamebrains in the U.S. is much greater than the
Administration estimates," says Davis Logsdon, who studies the
demography of idiots at the University of Minnesota. "Just look at
Glenn Beck's ratings."

Progressives are so...compassionate.

Pot, giant cauldron, black.

Very well, then. I challenge you to cite where I've referred to
anyone as a "lamebrain," "idiotic," "dimwit," "doofus," or any other
pejorative epithet of any type. I likewise challenge you to cite
where I've accosted anyone in these conversations with obvious malice
and violent vituperation. Or are you confused on the meaning of
"compassionate," as well?

I'll be waiting. I'm patient.

No one was addressing you. You've represented yourself as an
authority on progressives. I assume that you're representing another
point of view who are so much more enlghtened and compassionate.

That'd be the Regressives, the side of the aisle that best fits your
perspective.

Mine was a commentary on the the tripe rendered by Borowitz. You
addressed me. And yes, I probably am more compassionate than the
average progressive. I have no desire to rob anyone of their
self-reliance by foisting government upon them. And I'm more than
willing to contend that anyone who is truly compassionate will display
that in their overall comportment, including posting on Usenet.

That'd be the Regressives, the side of the aisle that best fits your
perspective.

And what is my perspective, exactly? I've had a nagging suspicion
that I was apolitical.
