Coming Around

GOOD NEWS AT LAST! It turns out that  republican conservatives, even the most extremely conservative republicans, are, after all, staunch defenders of medicare, that oft maligned socialized government-run health care insurance program for senior citizens.

And to think, all this time, conservative republicans have been portrayed as died in the wool heartless free enterprisers whose philosophy is "you're on your own."

Few events in modern history have evoked as much wrath as has obama's transfer of seven hundred billion dollars out of medicare and into obamacare, and the wrath is all being registered by, you guessed it, conservative republicans, those staunch defenders of entrenched socialism!

You might suppose that they would be exclaiming something to the effect "obamacare is a complete disaster, but at least it is draining that other socialistic nightmare, medicare, and, if the country is fortunate, medicare AND medicaid both will be sufficiencly drained by obamacare to bring about the destruction, or privatization, of all three!"

But no, that aint what you're hearing. You're hearing outrage by conservatives about decreased funding for socialism... When social security, medicare, and medicaid were introduced, every conservative in america was in an uproar; but over the decades the uproar has subsided, as likely it will in the case of obamacare.

Conservatives always come around; sometimes they simply take awhile..
