Democrat Rep. to Those Who Lost Their Healthcare Plans: ‘Stop Whining, You Liars’

#2

A few issues to raise with this:

 

1: The site is called Tea Party News Network. Now we can argue back and forth on a media bias in the major news networks but you'll excuse me if I put more stock in the political opinion of my 3 year old nephew.

 

2: Deliberate misquote. Eshoo never said "stop whining, you liars" as the article header suggests. At least they have the dignity to include the full quote in the article:

 

Quote: 

 

Rep. Eshoo said, “Your plan is whining. Your plan is suing the president and using taxpayer dollars. I hope no more Saturday Night Live whining is brought up in legislation because it’s not attractive, it’s not truthful, and it really does not fit with the dignity of the American people.”
What she's effectively saying is that the Republican plan to complain and sue the president is pathetic and if they plan on opposing legislation then do it in a manner that isn't downright embarrassing. People on this forum even agree the whole suing the president thing is nothing more than a useless dog and pony show. She isn't even addressing those who lost their health care plans so the entire headline is false.

 

3: Misinformation: 

Quote:$840 million of taxpayer dollars that was used to build a website that has never worked.
 
Now, I'm not going to pretend any government is anywhere near efficient but I think not even the US government spent $840 million on a website.
