Maybe the fact that Rev. Moon is a friend of the Bushies doesn't matter. That he got kicked out of Oregon doesn't matter either. But you right wingers aren't too picky about the crowd you hang with, are you?
Perhaps you don't remember these incidents-selective memory disorder- just as you right winger whiners don't remember anything negative about your corrupt cabal. Keep deluding yourself.
I could care less.
Maybe, since you are an idiot, you would tend to matters in your own country. We have enough morons on A2k preaching hatred about anything Bush and the last think I needm is the useless opinion from some knothead from BC.
You are a great example of why socialized health care does NOT work.
But alas, I could NOT care any less.
Only a true idiot (I thought name calling was a no-no on this forum) but since you have started, I will continue - would disregard the article about Bush's brother. I didn't write it. Yes, you have a lot of people in the US chanting hatred of the system/Bush, don't you? Bush's pop polls are dropping like one of his bombs. Can't stand to hear any truth about your right wingers, can you? Hurts, does it, when there is no defense? Since Bush is so hated in his own country, he is not immune to it elsewhere. Being as you are an American, I am certain you have not an iota of knowledge about what he's done and would like to do to Canada. Good thing our Prime Minister is telling him to 'fukk off'. When you fools come begging to Canada for water (since we have the most fresh water on the planet) we'll have to just say no. Nicely, of course.
Socialized health care does not work? You know about it because you have used it here in Canada? I'd like to hear about your experience with it. Or is it more American media telling you it doesn't work? They like for you to keep thinking that. The AMA has a strong lobby in the US, so I suspect you'll be paying through your big american noses for your HMO's and low level medical care for quite some time. Most of you have NO medical coverage. Pretty sad for such a 'wealthy country'.
Socialized medicine works quite nicely. It works in Europe and elsewhere on the planet. The US is about the only country to let its citizens go without decent health care. And, since 69% of you are obese, I predict big trouble (no pun intended). I have no complaints regarding our system here, having it to compare with what I had in the States. Retired people in the States pay over $500 a month for medical care. Try that on your fixed income in your old age. When you retire, given the assumption that you WORK, you won't have health care, or if you do, you'll be paying a lot more than $500.
Haven't you heard the news about what is going on in New York right now? They (employers) can't afford to pay benefits, medical, retirement. Just like GM and Ford. Pensions gone too. If you Americans weren't as dumb as dirt maybe you'd get it, instead of following the Chimp Prez like he's God or something. Y'all are getting screwed
We'll keep our socialized health care (which means everyone gets healthcare, dumbshit) and you keep.....whatever it is you don't have.
Here's a tribute to America, by Don Henley:
"Workin It"
Ah, it's open season here my friend, it always is; it always has been
Welcome, welcome to the U.S.A.
We're partying fools in the autumn of our heyday, and though we're running ouf of everything
We can't afford to quit
Before this binge is over
We've got to squeeze off one more hit, We're workin it, Workin it,
Soon you will be dancing face-to-face, with the limits of ambition and the scars of the marketplace
Welcome to the land of flame and fizz
Where you will learn that packaging is all that heaven is
We got the little black car, the little black dress, Got the guru, the trainer, the full court press
We got the software, hard drive, CD-ROM, We got the exploitation.com
We got the pager, cell phone
bootleg methaqualone
The media, the message, you are what you own
We got the agent, lawyer, lapdog, voyeur
Talk show, book deal, round mouth, square meal
We're so busy covering our assess
we just can't commit
"Oh back off, don't bother me, baby
Can't you see I'm workin it"
Workin it
It's plain to see Miss Liberty has not yet come of age
But she loves to feed the animals
As long as they're locked up in
the cage
And everybody knows the girl's got
balls of brass
Aw, kiss my ass
