And yea... while other countries have it all, why not move there? How about Canada and their lovely health care? You know the one where you could probably die from your illness before your appointment date? But they sure do have great cable tv and internet eh? You betchya!
As compared to the number of people that have died or are in the process of dying (or living with a greatly-reduced quality-of-life, which also reduces their individual capacity for contribution to the GNP), due to them not having health insurance at all, because they cannot afford it!
This is caused primarily because the private insurers offering it charge too much, and the private employers paying these people, don't provide it, nor pay their workers enough to afford to pay for it directly. (Such as Wal-Mart, that intentionally doesn't allow a large portion of their workers to work enough hours to qualify for health insurance, and instead tells them to sign up for their state's welfare-funded health-insurance programs instead - just so they can post higher profits.)
I haven't had health insurance for years, here, and am (unfortunately) suffering because of that fact. Perhaps I really should move to Canada. |

Forgive me, I didn't realize that this website ahd a political taking. I didn't know this was a left only board. Maybe this explains the entitlement attitude here.
The U.S. - when was the government implicated in this? I think it speaks of the U.S. in whole.
And yea... while other countries have it all, why not move there? How about Canada and their lovely health care? You know the one where you could probably die from your illness before your appointment date? But they sure do have great cable tv and internet eh? You betchya!
How about China, better speeds, but where, oh where do you find room in your 4' x 4' apartment, er, I mean, POD to put that computer, monitor and keyboard? Ask their corrupt government for more room.
I didn't know it was all about the internet here. The U.S. has alot to offer. Even if you dont' like the right wing of this country, which I am not a big fan of either, you are still free to come to a baord like this and blast your own government.. not many other countries allow it.
Really, why don't you take a good look at what you have and stop your whining once and for all! We are the U.S. and I would never want to call any other country home. The U.S. may have faults, but I will take ours anyday over what other countries have to deal with!
If you don't liek the U.S., leave! |

Is that true with those televangelists too? Their on the right...and who was that one that was banging Jessica Hahn?
What a bunch of hypocrites.
Oh...and I hope that fathead Rush has to. According to his own thoughts, he should be locked up for life for being a drug addict.
I don't get the whole divided issue..left or right,Republican or Democrat...they are all out for themselves and you can't believe a word they say. It's more like rich vs not-so rich vs. not-so poor vs. poor.
who was on the right bangin' jessica hahn, well, a man, a televangelist that fell from the ideal he chose to live up to and ask people to live up to as well... does that negate the message by having a faulty man delivering the message...? people make mistakes every day, you, me, everyone... hypocrisy isn't a crime, but people who see it and excise it from within their ranks are doing the world a favor...
sure, jim baker commited adultry and as a minister lied to his flock and brought shame upon himself and that's too bad, but his actions do not make the message hypocritical... and as for your comment about rush limbaugh, the same applies to him too... and i find that your uncompassionate attitude towards those have problems regardless of their status to be distasteful and indicative of your total lack of understand about these issues... have some compassion, man... throw a helping hand out to someone how trips and falls...
i'm not talking about being sympathetic to rapists and murderers, but to those that allow vice and bad decision making to delude their perceptions and thusly leads to making wrong choices... |

said by kapil  :Are you talking about the kinda' blessings that can be charged to a credit card after watching the endless infomercials on channels 32, 38, 43, 56, 84, 77....? $29.99 for a blessing from God and a Jesus Blanket. And if you call right now, we'll throw in a free molesting session with the priest of your choice! Call Now 800-Holy-Crap! Actually, those on the right don't need to pay for blessings from God, that would be like a metal band paying for sex.
