Remember that guy who told Specter that "God will judge you!"?
He has been on disability for four years and receiving payments which are covered through a government-run plan.

6. I am not surprised.
I heard this guy interviewed the next day on MSNBC and he was definitely not all there mentally. He had a very hard time putting together a coherent sentence.

12. Maybe Rush can hook him up with one of his suppliers.
Now I understand why the guy took 2 minutes to complete a simple sentence when he was interviewed.

13. Someone help me here....what is "crossing the rubicon"?
It was in the last paragraph and refers to what he thinks Obama wants to do.

"He has set up a shadow government and plans on crossing the Rubicon," Miller said.

14. It refers to Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon river with his army into Italy.
The river was considered to northern boarder of Rome's home province, and traditionally Roman generals left their army outside. When Caesar "crossed the Rubicon" it was considered an act of war against Rome, and he set the stage for Rome to cease being a Republic and set it on a path toward dictatorship.

16. I don't think it's hypocrisy so much as self-loathing,
which seems to be a pretty common trait among conservatives.

17. I saw him on Dylan Ratigan's show on Weds
He was a slobbering idiot that could barely put two thoughts together. He was trying really hard to get his talking points out and Dylan, to his credit, gave him enough rope to hang himself, a la Lawrence O'Donnel & the idiot Katy Abrams. I wish there was video of Dylan's interview of him.

I'm sure he'd prefer Faux - he's the perfect example of their know-nothing audience.

18. "I'm not against all government programs..."
...just those where they are stepping in where they don't have to step in."

The government didn't "have to step in" any program, not even the disability program he now benefits from.

Translation: I've got mine, the hell with everyone else.
