    "I don't really listen to polls"

    Stand up with Town Hall screaming, 'Death Panel' believing people sent by Rush Limbaugh to FOX Sponsored protests? You can go because this is America... but, I'm gonna pass.
    ...
    And how about you SIT DOWN and write to your Senators and Congresional Representative and tell them to get to fucking work and negotiate in the things YOU want to see in Health Care reform?

    The point that this story is from Fox makes me think that it's fabricated... I wonder why. :roll:

    Here's some more 'Leftist' stuff that won't make any sense to you...
    I wonder... how many people are complaining about Heatlh Care reform... already have Health Care?
    And where do they get their Health Care from?
    An Employer? What happens if you get laid off?
    A parent's Employer? What happens when you turn 18?
    Did they buy a policy? What did that cost and does it increase over the years?
    And...
    Why is it that people are against 'entitlement' programs... yet, graciously accept Medicare/Medicaid for themselves or an elderly parent? Isn't Medicare a Socialist Entitlement Program?
    And the people who complain about the poor people... you know, lazy and don't want to get a job and just want a free government handout. Then, they tell me about how charitable they are towards the needy and less fortunate... aren't they the same poor, lazy people who are looking for a free handout? Why are they giving them money... and oppose to their tax dollars going to the poor? How does THAT work?

    Personally... I like the part where they compare the 'Silent Majority' of the 70s to today's events. The silent majority were the people who were against the war in Viet Nam, but did not approve of the demonstration turned riots of the college (draft aged) kids at the Universities. They didn't want to be assosciated with these long haired hippies.
    And somehow, FOX News is hoping that this is the case here. People see this disgusting behaviour of shouting down women in wheel chairs trying to testify about their current health condition or crying about indoctrination speeches to their kids or believing that there will be 'Death Panels' to kill old people... yet, support their message... cause the failure of Health Care reform based on political partisanship.
    I just don't see the correlation.

    Posted for the audio, not so much for the imagery, Howard Beale's speech with Metallica's Damage Inc. in the background:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4Knd6y79KU

    I wish we could all agree on one thing, and that's to be angry enough to want to change things. I wish the "right" would join in on the anger at the anti-war protests, I wish the "left" would come out to the tea parties-- I would love it if everyone could put their partisanship aside and LOUDLY demand more of our elected officials. At this point, I don't think our letters are being read, or our phone calls are being answered-- so, what is next? Getting louder, and more in their faces. Can everyone be loud and eloquent at the same time? Probably not, but everyone should at least TRY. If anyone has a problem with screaming a little to make a political statement, they may want to stop listening to rock music all together.

    Cosmo would you stop fucking ranting that republicans don't want health care reform. They simply do not want Public Option because they don't want the government to control it. Why don't you feel that way...you want a government run health care?? Your freakin democrats want to prosecute republicans while your freakin Obama hires a Treasury of State that doesn't even pay his taxes....but he works for Obama so thats o.k.......alright, now i'm ranting

    What is the 'Liberal Mainstream Media' in your opinion? What makes them Liberal? Mainstream?
    ...
    I hear this term all the time and would like your take on this.

    I completely agree. No one really truly cares if you're part of the silent majority. Silence is the enemy, and revolution will only come to those who demand it. The gov't should be afraid of us, not the other way around, so we need to stand up and demand what we want from the gov't. Otherwise, it simply won't com.

    Yes, I want a government run health care. The insurance industry has fucked it up so bad it needs new ownership. Who else is going to do it?

    I'm an American/Canadian dual citizen living in Canada, I like government run care. I go to the doctor for something, and it doesn't cost me anything. Is the system perfect? No. However, I'm willing to pay more taxes, knowing my neighbour next door won't go bankrupt if he gets sick. The fact that the United States doesn't is astonishing to me, absolutley astonishing. Do you guys not care? I saw a guy on CNN talking about how he wants a Hummer but can't have one because of money.. Do Americans really think health care is like this? Really?

    But the insurance industry is included in the reform Obama's talking about. Take the insurance companies out of the picture, and then I may be interested.
