So you have no problem with right wing extremists and militia groups running amok in your country?
Much of the world was effected in some way or other by the Bush Administration - mainly for the worse. So I have every right to be concerned at this upsurge of right-wing lunacy occurring in your precious country, and you should be concerned too instead of jumping on the 'Love it or leave it' wagon.0 -

The article fans paranoia that these militia groups will cause chaos and destabilization, when the truth is that they've been there since the start of America. And while their concept is outdate, they are closely monitored by our government. This article isn't saying anything new, but it is taking something and putting it out of context.
The whole extreme right is no more then a threat then the extreme left. This is the same hypocritical BS that both sides bring up against opposition. You don't see far right protesters tearing up cities like a WTO protesters.
What is more fucked up is someone who's never been to America, isn't a US citizen, and lives in China, posts threads about how fucked up our country is. Its called mutual respect, you should try it sometime. People would take you a lot more seriously if you presented the facts.BRING BACK THE WHALE0 -

re: the main health bill
All that's left is for the House to pass the Senate bill.
******************************************
Where reconciliation comes in is for the 'addendums' to it.
Budget issues and even some Republican ideas such as Tort reform and crossing state lines to purchase insurance.
the reconciliation is a tiny part, comparatively, dollar-wise.
oh and the Stupak abortion fiasco. See: 'The Family'WOOT!0 -

And nothing happens in England? I'm sure the IRA is fictional then.
You know how I know you're not telling the truth? Because of your view of America. Infact you would have a better understanding of our country and how different and diverse it is from coast to coast. AND if it was that much of a threat and full of right wing nuts, why would you come here?
Stop shitting on our country, its insulting and ignorant.BRING BACK THE WHALE0 -

The IRA are from Ireland, not England.
So now I'm a liar? GFY!
I've traveled coast to coast across the U.S by bus four times, not to mention all the other places I've flown to.
And I never said your country was FULL of Right-wing nuts. Try reading the article again, instead of just frothing at the mouth. It makes some interesting observations.0 -
