The good news is that the GOP is finally hard at work at something they care about deeply; the bad news is, they suck at it. If they really want to end Obamacare, sending the economy into a giant toilet – as they’re on the verge of doing – should not be their first and only plan.
I must admit that even for this relatively moderate left leaning poster, sometimes Luchovich gets a bit on the extreme side. And this particular Editorial Cartoon must have been one of those times, to have brought out so many of our ultra conservative friends here!
And our current president has done far less to stir up the anger of the Ultra extremist Islamic set, than the last president did, by a long, long way!
bottom line is Bin Laden wanted to do to us what we say we did to the Soviets and I would say 17 trillion in debt is an excellent start. So from that end this comic is so out of touch it is laughable and is an excellent example of the whole misinformation highway we have going on from all sides… but especially the press.
Obviously you haven’t been paying attention to the news for the past 4 years. Egypt, Libya, Syria, etc. If there’s a wrong side to get on, that who we’ve been giving weapons to. If they’re both bad, we pick the most obviously in the tank for terrorism.
Ignoring your racist jibe, yes, after over sixty years of trying, we finally will have health care for our citizens. Years from now, Obama will be remembered for this the way FDR is remembered for Social Security. And the Republicans will still be whining about it while the people ignore them.
Iran-Contra, Reagan and North DID give weapons directly not only to terrorists, in the Middle East, AND Central America, but failed miserably in their efforts at U.S. hegemony in Central America. (Despite getting a lot of people killed!)
Really Luckovich? Last time I checked obamau changed some laws so that he could arm al Quaida with the whole Syria thing. Guess you idiot demoncrats forgot about that when you stuck your heads in the sand…….AGAIN.
If it is so bad – Then let it fail! But the Conservatives are afraid that it will succeed and that has them running wild to destroy it before it can prove that it just may work. Fear causes some pretty sad actions.
No, it means GOP and Tea Party who have as their primary objective to defund the US because they don’t like a health plan that tries to take care of all people, not just the rich. Romney had it right when he set it up but now that it is a Black Democrat who has tried it the GOP can no longer handle it?

When it comes to partisan stupidity Luckovich takes the prize.

If Obamacare were actually going to fail, the Repubs would be all in favor of it. Their opposition stems from a fear it will make the Dems look good.

Thanks for playing, but the facts don’t support your rant.

Obama need no help from stinkin’ Republicans to ruin the economy. He can do it single handedly…

You don’t even know the proper name for it and I doubt very much if you ever bothered to read it.
