Vampire elephant.

Lungs and guts?

(I know…heart; just playing.)

No brain either.

I am reminded of the anime show “Matchless Raijin-Oh”, in which the villain has no internal organs—instead an evil fairy lives in his rib cage.

I think the “health” part is missing too. But at least the IV tube going from the taxpayers’ wallets to the pockets of the 1% is intact.

Looks like the Restaurant critic from Monty Python…

Masterskrain, which critic is that…?

It’s the Republican War on Poverty —-kill off the poor

I’ve heard it said, with no humor or sarcasm intended, that the bill isn’t really a health-care plan, it’s a tax plan. And, given that it’s coming from Republicans, you can guess how that’s gonna play out.

“Ah, good old leeches!” says the Republican, chortling over a jar of slimy black things labeled Tax Cuts for the Rich, “Is there nothing they can not cure?”

To be replaced by a GOP plan that throws 24 million people off insurance. Who ya callin’ stupid?

No heart, no brains, no courage. We just want them to go home.

I think it’s high time the GOP replace their symbol. The elephant is a wise and noble creature, a paragon of the African plains. The modern GOP is more akin to a cockroach; it scuttles about in the dark, feeds off trash, and continues to survive despite the loathing everyone has for it.
