GOP asshole blocks disabled vets bill

I have no objection to calling this disgusting clod what he is.

Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Oklahoma) is the asshat who wanted a network broadcast of 'Schindler's List' to be canceled. As a senator, he ranks up there with Jim DeMint and Saxby Chambliss in arrogant worthlessness.

Also like Jim DuhMint and Saxby Clueless, Coburn hates America's brave veterans - even while attacking everyone else's patriotism.

Senate Democrats have a bill to help fund programs for paralyzed veterans and spinal cord injury research. Because the Democrats have a majority in the Senate, you'd think this bill would pass.

But in the Senate, a majority is no longer enough, because Republicans abuse procedure. And a perfect example of this is Tom Coburn blocking the disabled vets bill.

What a fucking prick.

Obviously, Coburn never served in the military himself. There's nothing in his bio that says he did, so I'll assume he didn't. I didn't either, but at least I appreciate the troops.

Coburn doesn't appreciate the troops. He spends his Senate career stabbing our courageous vets in the back.

I think this also proves that the entire Republican philosophy has turned into a big con game. Republican leaders' entire purpose in life seems to be to harm people for the sheer hell of it - but they hide behind bogus talking points, like when they accuse everyone else of not supporting the troops.

This GOP con act is the biggest fraud perpetrated in modern American political history.
