Hey, I think we finally found those death panels Sarah Palin was talking about. They’re attending the Republican Presidential debates!
Have you heard the crowds at the last two debates? For a party filled with people who call themselves “Right to Lifers”, they certainly like the prospect of people dying.
At last night's Tea Party debate, when Wolf Blitzer was asking Ron Paul a health care question….a hypothetical case involving a 30 year old uninsured man with six months to live….and when he asked if the man should just be left to die, the audience answered for him. “Yeah!”
But this was pretty tame compared to last week’s debate at the Reagan Library. I’m sure you’ve seen this clip. Brian Williams wasn’t even finished asking Rick Perry a death penalty question….but when he said Texas has executed more death row inmates than any other state, the audience cheered. Louder than they did for Nancy Reagan.
So I’ve come to three conclusions.
First, if Sarah Palin liked to shoot people from airplanes instead of wolves, she wouldn’t just be the frontrunner….she’d be the Republican nominee by now.
Second, when Dick Cheney shot his hunting buddy in the face, IT WAS NO ACCIDENT!
And finally, speaking of vice presidents shooting people, maybe Aaron Burr had the right idea. Maybe the Republicans should scrap all the remaining debates, and all the primaries, and begin a series of duels to the death. You think Bachmann is gunning for Perry now? Wouldn’t people cheer at that? It would be just like “Spartacus” without the sex & nudity.
