Mocking The Uninsured

.

Can it get more disgusting than this?

At the health care summit, Democrat Louise Slaughter was making a case for the plight of the uninsured and brought up a story about a woman who was forced to wear her dead sister’s dentures because she lacked the means to purchase her own.  Here’s how the scum in wingnuttia responded.

Pigboy Limbaugh

“You know I’m getting so many people — this Louise Slaughter comment on the dentures? I’m getting so many people — this is big. I mean, that gets a one-time mention for a laugh, but there are people out there that think this is huge because it’s so stupid. I mean, for example, well, what’s wrong with using a dead person’s teeth? Aren’t the Democrats big into recycling? Save the planet? And so what? So if you don’t have any teeth, so what? What’s applesauce for? Isn’t that why they make applesauce?”

Glenn Beck

“I am wearing George Washington’s dentures right now. I’m wearing his teeth right now. I just like wearing dead people’s teeth. But in America — I’m sorry, I didn’t know that that was — I’ve read the Constitution before. I didn’t see that you had a right to teeth.”

“The environmentalists should be all over Slaughter. ‘How dare you say that?’ My gosh, they’re just recycling. They’re just reusing.”

When it comes to the point where mocking the uninsured is acceptable fodder for conservatives, you know you’ve reached dirt bottom in this debate.

As for Pigboy and Beck, they make it so easy to despise them.  And what does it say for Republicans and teabaggers when Limbaugh and Beck are their main respective spokesmen?
