Stewart truly pulls out the stops (at 1:00 in) showing the ultimate hypocrisy of the Republicans for choosing to use the 9/11 responders for their political purpose, and then ignoring their health needs after they have finished using them up for their own gains.

The GOP is truly a party of complete soul-less hypocrites.

In case this tribute video is pulled, adding HuffPo Link which has the video from Comedy Central as well, although not in easy to view & post YouTube format.

* note: there is a slight delay as the video moves towards the end, but it was not so much as to lose the message, so thought it worth posting. on edit, changed title

2. What I don't get about this...
Do you all realize that we paid two million dollars plus, to relatives of the people who died in the WTC? The reason we paid for that kind of money to the family of each person who died, is because a lawsuit would have resulted in a discovery process that would have uncovered negligence or complicity on the part of our government. So, I'm wondering, why isn't the union for the responders suing the government and opening that can of worms?

9. The GOP is truly a party of complete soul-less hypocrites.
I think the clinical term for soul-less hypocrite is psychopathic personality disorder, or something to that effect. :smoke:

11. Republicans use veterans the same way-Vets fight their wars based on lies for corporate profit then
Edited on Tue Dec-14-10 07:03 PM by LaPera
republicans will always cut, gut and underfunded veterans needs when no ones looking....health care, clinics, GI Bills, housing, republicans always claiming that the deficit they drove up is too high (with their tax cuts for the rich, two wars based on lies and unpaid for corporations subsidies)

The same fucking deficit the republicans used for unpaid programs for the rich, corporations and war & weapons profiteers that same deficit that the republicans purposely drive up as an excuse to cut & destroy all social & veterans programs.

The republicans truly are greedy hateful selfish disgusting liars, pigs, more is never enough for these republican pigs, slobs....and they don't care as long as they can keep lying conniving & manipulating for more....these ugly people are just sickening, they just can't get enough....It's horrifyingly sickening!

They'll use soldiers, policeman, firemen, etc... shamelessly & loudly for their own propaganda, to promote their bullshit patriotism (which are just lies for their planned imperialism) and then when few are paying almost no attention, that's when the republicans simply discard the same people who they praised in front of the cameras when they wanted to appear so patriotic.

Republicans couldn't care less except for the photo-ops they receive. - This happens over and over again....ALL Republicans are despicable shameless creatures of greed.

13. Hard to figure which party is worst...
the rethugs or the dems. Most of us here know that the rethugs are the most bought and paid for party..but why doesn't the dems get some guts and make a stand against them. Bush and the rethugs should be "TRIED" as "TREASON" and hanged. Most of us know that there is elements of conspiracy of the knowledge of 9/11...why hasn't there been an investigation?????? What kind of country are we living in when common sense is neglected in favor of lies, deceit, deaths, cheats etc.??????????? SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THE ANSWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
