Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell points to a copy of the Senate version of health care reform legislation during a news conference at the U.S. Capitol November 20, 2009 in Washington, DC. The Republican senators accused the Obama Administration of rationing health care after a panel of doctors announced that women should begin getting regular mammogram at age 50 instead of 40.

Well, at least they're not trying to ration paper.
"This is not the health care reform. It´s the insurance application for women over 50. One pile for each woman..."
New puppy?
A little bill on bill action and the combined monstrosity will probably outweigh Octo-mom at her glowing-est.
I, the Senate Minority Leader, do solumnly swear to make as many cheap-shot political points as possible....
Well, maybe a little funny.
You try reading this 2000+ page beaurocratic nightmare. If I wanted a mind-numbing read, I would have lined up to buy Sarah Palin's 'Going Rogue'!
I want to know who slipped in the chapter on Congressional Hemorrhoids. NOT funny.
FINALLY, America understands what a "petard" is. Hoist away!
Amazingly, almost all alliteration!
Sen. McConnell reaches down and tries to slowly slide his missing
Playboy out of the health care bill.
Does it sting when you rip it off? The American taxpayer, I mean.
The US Military has its 'army of one.'
CNN has a moderator of one…who reads on long after comments are, for all practical purposes, closed.
All we want for Christmas is high health care costs, high health care costs, high health care costs. All we want for Christmas is hight health care costs and to screw the American public (till they bleed in the streets.)
sung to the tune "All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth" (well, maybe those too??..)

Statistical mathematicians around the globe are amazed as the 10,000 monkeys theory was demonstrated in far less than 10,000 years.
You should know better than to leave a boxful of crayons in a room full of Democrats.
The good news, it's got 11 pages of coupons!
Meanwhile, the cunning typist washes his hands in greedy anticipation of the one BILLION dollars granted to him on page 1168 (in the six-point font).
I'll wait for the Saturday Night Live version.
Trust me. We didn't sneak anything in among all these words.
Sen. McConnell urges the American people to "Simmer down now y'all and get over this here health care reform nonsense."
Wow, another way that the Government can decide how they are going to run my life? Fantastic!
Ironically, the word 'boredom' occurs precisely 2009 times in this historical document.
Senators look down in fear as the health care bill sits there quietly waiting to stop the lobbyist dollars flowing to capitol hill.
The first fifty pages are type-written, the next 200 are 9-pin printed, after that there are 700 24-pin printed ones followed by the last 1193 pages printed using laser ink technology. Now, that's what I call progress.
The "Paperless Society" Finally get it's own Chair
Heath care. Now, with pulp!
Keep that hand close. It looks to be getting away from you.
8.5×8.5×11? Well, ream me!
Somewhere, a carpal tunnel victim is blogging with her elbow.
Yes, put it on a chair so we can all look down upon it.
Just as a goof, I'd want to put a copy of Spider Man 1 in the middle to see if anybody ever read the actual paper document.
Is that the Bill or the blogs about the bill?
Keep that hand close. I looks to be getting away from you.
I wonder if Richard Heene could make this bill float away..,
My wife is so mad at me I had to write, "I will not forget to take out the trash again", 100,000 times.
Nobody's read it and nobody understands it, but hey, let's vote on it anyway!
And for those of you who are out of Ambien, we will send you a copy
of this bill, which is guaranteed to put you to sleep within 15 minutes.
