Good for you. I was wondering why you were being nice with this troll.

Big Hollywood : Obama-Care Can Kill You

I think you're right. I would not trade our system for any other in the world. There are things that need to be fixed, but not at the expense of becoming like the rest of the world.

Here's another good link on this topic. John Stossel makes the point that the biggest reason health care costs have gone up is that insurance has replaced the individual in terms of making decisions about what care to get and what to pay -- http://blogs.abcnews.com/johnstossel/2009/07/why-...

You're right. The problem is their mindset. They don't trust people, they trust governments, even though the history of government involvement has been an unmitigated disaster, and the history of personal freedom has been mankind's greatest achievements.

The VA is a disaster. I can't believe they treat veterans the way they do.

The other thing about how the Netherlands keep their costs down is that they don't give older people the same level of care we do. It is really chilling. Thanks for the link.

I feel like I'm becoming an ad for these guys, but AndrewPrice and Lawhawk are doing a great series of articles about health care over at the blog -- http://commentarama.blogspot.com/ It's been very well done, with some pretty surprising information. I highly recommend it. Click on their Health Care Reform "index." While I'm at is, they did a great article on Honduras too.

Jackie Chan said something similar about how it was good that the Chinese government kept people under control. That's called Brainwashing.

Normally, I would blame the guy with the word "Troll" in his name. But I know that's not your style. If we have a mystery troll, I hereby task you to find the furry critter and roust him from his secret bridge.

Yahoo has had the Sanford thing on their front page since it happened. I don't remember this much coverage of Edwards at all.

I LOVE the soundtrack and I've been trying to find it anywhere for some time, but the last I knew it was no longer in print anywhere! Have you got a link to where you blog?

Kathleen Parker (September 26, 2008): "If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself. If Palin were a man, we’d all be guffawing, just as we do every time Joe Biden tickles the back of his throat with his toes. But because she’s a woman — and the first ever on a Republican presidential ticket — we are reluctant to say what is painfully true. What to do? McCain can’t repudiate his choice for running mate. He not only risks the wrath of the GOP’s unforgiving base, but he invites others to second-guess his executive decision-making ability. Barack Obama faces the same problem with Biden. Only Palin can save McCain, her party, and the country she loves. She can bow out for personal reasons, perhaps because she wants to spend more time with her newborn. No one would criticize a mother who puts her family first. Do it for your country."
