Irony

Do Rubio, Jindal, Ryan or any of the wet behind the ears conservatives see the irony? All said that their moms or grandmoms depend on Social Scurity and Medicare. At least two of  these politicians depended on these programs as a child or as a student. All swear they would do nothing to harm these programs (and then suggests voucherizing Medicare so the government won't have to worry about future cost increases).

But look at the history, boys. Conservatives opposed all of these programs tooth and nail. The New Deal, the New Frontier, the Great Society - they hated them all and have spent the last 70 years trying to dismantle them. So here's the irony - these politicians or someone in their families - depends or depended on these programs to survive with dignity, to go to school, or to eat. These politicians love and support these programs (they say). So excuse me, why are you a conservative, why have you aligned yourself with the party that voted against these programs and has spent the last 70 years trying to undermine them?
