Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.
3,500 brainwashed morons who were also holding signs equating Obama to Hitler and questioning his birth certificate.
Heh...yeah...THOSE people.
Fortunately 60% of Americans are in favor of the public option and 80% of Americans are in favor of health care reform.
A TAD bit more than 3,500 lemmings.

Keep tellin' yourself that.
I'll be the one giggling when I'm proven right AGAIN despite all your worries and indignation.

Does anyone else see the irony of people claiming Obama has taken their rights by use of public protest?
While I disagree with the motives, and seriously doubt they have any policy points beyond hysterical delusion, at least they are cognizant to a political process, so kudos for the wacky signs. For the record, I felt the exact same way about the same mobs in 2003.

Just keep giving them enough rope...
You mean like the folks out protesting Bush's war who are strangely silent now?
I never once saw any goofballs out protesting terrorism.
you guys just wait for nationalized health care. Long lines even with an appointment. You don't get to pick a doctor.
Your pending treatment must be approved by a committee.
We need a blood test for point B but you have to go to point A for it so they can send it to point B. Then report back to point B...
Why do you guys beat each other brainless on "no winner" issues like this ???

Funny.
I was just in a nation with socialized health care and had to use it while I was down there and it was nothing like this. There were no lines. I picked my doctor. I didn't have to wait at all. The treatment was cheap and fast and effective. There were NO committees in sight.
I guess that the U.S. is NO New Zealand, though...

Oh, it was silly when they did it to Bush as well. I didn't like Bush, but it centered around the fact that I thought he was inept at administrative function and on the wrong side of policy, not borne of some fanatical fear that he would somehow make a major alteration in my daily life. There are millions of people that think Obama is on the wrong side of policy, which is fine, and as for administrative function, I think it's far too early to tell. However, let's not kid ourselves, people engaged in protest against the government while fully within their rights, aren't exactly coming from a nuanced position, what with angry mob and everything regardless of the tea party or G20 summit in which you are currently all in a tizzy.

Nor do they have the income and variety of industry. They are primarily an agricultural and tourism based economy with wool and lamb being their top products.
We earn JUUUUST a little bit more than they do.
And Canada ain't exactly a post-apocalyptic society either, ya know.

LAS, you never actually SEE the committee. I had to wait it out to get cancer treatment and if we wanted to get our newborn son circumcised we'd still be waiting on that one.
Call me crazy for thinking this takeover has as much to do with power as it does with helping out the peoples.
That's under the assumption (and that's a 100 years from now worst case assumption at BEST) that we would become an ENTIRELY socialized nation with regards to health care.
In actuality we'd only be about 5% socialized.
And NZ still has private hospitals and private health care as options, by the way. So if you lived there and wanted a circumcision, you could quite easily still get it done (for your child...heh). And the cost would STILL be lower than in the States because of the public option.
And the meds are EASILY 200-300% less expensive down there than they are up here.
And I never saw a committee...and if there WAS some kind of secret, invisible committee then they had to make a quick decision while hiding in the closet because I was treated immediately even though I was a dirty illegal alien leeching off the system.
On a side note, I'm glad you kicked your cancer and are doing well now.
