The American people are the most tolerant in the world. Can you imagine the Egyptians or Syrians putting up with the sort of nonsense the Obama regime has inflicted on us. Of course, Obama would respond just as Assad or the Egyptian military have to any sign of resistance. The next year will be quite interesting, if we survive.

Very good substitutions. Very good spoof. I like the "thinking/sync-ing" rhyme.

Nice parody-555! Although as a REP I stand with those that see Obamacare as Unconstitutional, illegal, and the worst draft of any healthcare overhaul for the US. Roberts is a traitor, tying this in with taxes. An it is NOT immune from implementation. It can be de-funded and/or various states can refuse to implement it for lack of resources to cover millions of people in such a short time. There will also be a shortage of doctors, services, and facilities for those millions. And the cost over time? Trillions more to the debt. Obamacare helps the poorest of the poor and minorities. The Middle Class gets screwed and the Rich aren't affected at all. Bad decision, bad plan. Am opposed to it.

Thank you, Patrick, John, and Rob ... I thought the world had turned its back on me, then I come back Sunday and see some nice comments. But then again, how can you not like even a hack job on the song "Mandy". It's so spoof-worthy

If you're worried about adding trillions of dollars to the national debt in, say, the next 10 years, let's put spending in perspective:
In the next decade, the total military budget, in today's dollars, will be $6.8 Trillion, if spending remains at its current level.
Given the complexities of the ACA insurance exchanges, I have no idea what Obamacare will cost in the next decade, but the CBO puts it at $1.76 Trillion. (Just for comparison, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost $3.7 Trillion as of June, 2011.)

If you want an idea of how best to achieve national security, look to President Eisenhower. Early in his first term, he tried to squelch massive Cold War military spending: "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.
It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.
It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals.
It is some 50 miles of concrete highway.
We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat.
We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people...
This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron."

Today, I believe Ike would speak out against the medical industrial complex and say, "Give Obamacare a chance."

Where are you coming up with this $3.7 trillion figure for the wars of Afghanistan and Iraq. The highest figure I've ever heard was $1 trillion, and that is supplied by Dems who will lie and distort anything .... But let's do a little math of our own. One of the significant cost components of previous wars, accounting for 20 to 30 percent of the cost, was loss of military hardware. So what have we lost in these wars -- any aircraft, warships, tanks? The only thing we lost in abundance were Humvees. So let's say we lost 10,000 of these specially equipped Humvees at a price of $250K per Humvee ($50K for the vehicle; $200K for the specialized equipment ) due to IED incidents. That's adds up $2.5 billion. And even if we are incredibly generous and multiply that figure by ten, you still don't account for one percent of $3.7 trillion ... So that's your first clue that your figure is way too high. Your second clue is that World War II cost $4.1 trillion in today's dollars. You really think that a war where we had eighty times the number killed and where we lost thousands of tanks and long range bombers and 200 hundred warships, including 5 aircraft carriers costs "about the same" as a war where we didn't lose any of these things

The figure in question comes from a Reuters story by Daniel Trotta http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/06/29/us-usa-war-idUSTRE75S25320110629
