Middle-Class Sheep/Nation Of Rubes/Property Is Theft/And You're Getting Screwed!

From a substitute for the ersatz ("Jude") we are treated to links. (Someone on the right who works as hard as we do!) Cheney deriding Bush for going soft because of public opinion is one thing, but if the people don't want healthcare, let's go along w/ them. After all, eminently trustworthy pollster
Scott Rasmussen reports that, with only 35% of voters saying passage of the current Health Care Reform bill would be better than any such legislation this year, 54% say no.
He's trustworthy because, as we all know, there is a "current Health Care Reform bill." (Or there are three of them, none of them "current" in the sense of haing been voted on or anything.) But you know it exists: "Jude" has it right there in CAPS.
The important part (Voting, as we all know, should be apportioned according to income & property.) of the poll is this:
Voters who earn less than $20,000 a year are evenly divided but a majority of all other voters would prefer no action. Middle income voters, those who earn from $40,000 to $75,000 a year, are most strongly in favor of taking no action."
Well, that settles it then. People w/o insurance can just fuck off & die painfully, because a middle-class pig thinks he's OK. Just wait, suburban scumbag. At least the imaginary Death Panels are supposed to give Fantasy Granny some Oxycontin to move her along.
We've noticed this before: Because those polled believe something, it's true. As long as it's in agreement w/ them. Therefore, as
[V]oters seem to have learned from the "stimulus" and other failing or unintentionally destructive legislation, that no matter how bad things are, congress is very good at finding ways to make them worse
it has therefore been proven (scientifically, yet) that "congress" sucks. And of course angels exist, because a majority of Americans believe it so.
Saved the best for last.
[L]ots of familiar faces are gathered this weekend at the Right Online conference in Pittsburgh. Among these stars, none shine more brightly (and that is not merely a bald joke) than Ed Morrissey, who gave, as Allahpundit described, seven solid minutes on property rights and prosperity in the age of Hopenchange.
The usual suspects have gathered in Pittsburgh this wknd.? Are they all there to "piss off" the Great Orange Satan's Annual Invocation & Ritual Dance to SoroStalin/Nutroots★Nation bash, which is occuring in Pittsburgh through tomorrow as well? Having seen no reports of violence or angry confrontations in the City of Three Rivers, we can only assume that the right, dogs that they are, have quite a bark in cyberspace, but no meatspace bite. We'd pay good money for a Pay-Per-View presentation of mostly under-50 progs vs. the usual fat, balding & graying 50+ collection of basement-dwelling wing-nut welfare recipients. It would take a hell of a lot of rain to clean the streets of the blood of the wretched.
The very best is "property rights & prosperity" being applied to healthcare. Or "Hopencare." Or is that "Hopenchange?" Please explain what "hope" the 45+ million Americans w/o health insurance have? And back up your work.
Not quite as good, but indicative of their basic dishonesty: Having Cap't. Ed's co-blogger Allahpundit provide the description of "seven solid minutes" for Special Ed's presentation.
