    Oh cry me a freaking river!..the protesters are yelling at him.....the guy put himself there looking to get a reaction...... Who knows what he said to the protesters....in fact he probably called out some racial slurs and spit on them ....Have you seen the Video of Obamas thugs from SEIU beating up a Tea Party patron and calling him the N word as the 3 guys beat him? Why was this not in the lame stream media? and nothing from Obama announcing how they acted stupidly...
    ...first of all your ability of assumption is mystifying.
    Secondly... weren't they all white in that video?

    oh and thirdly, I will always be dumbfounded on how many of these Americans attribute healthcare to communism... its hilarious! Do they realise other countries with established health care systems just look at them and laugh?

    What do you know? You're Canadian! According to the media here, your healthcare system is horrible and people can't wait to cross the border to get seen to by REAL doctors (even though Sarah Palin admitted to sneaking into Canada to get healthcare) :lol:

    In NZ, we have fully socialized healthcare and it works great. The government pays all of your medical bills (so there's no need for health insurance - though you have the option of buying health insurance plans if you want to use a private hospital instead of a public one). If you're hurt in an accident you are not allowed to sue, but, once again, the government will pay 100% of your health care bills. Socialized healthcare hasn't led to the country going bankrupt (on the contrary, we enjoy one of the highest standards of living in the world), and it hasn't led to scores of Kiwis dying in the streets because the system is collapsing around them (our public hospitals are actually really good). So, at the risk of threadjacking, I'm with you all the way on this.

    Now, please continue with your regularly scheduled discussion about how Mexicans are racist because they protested an anti-Mexican bill...

    then go back to NZ if its so great.

    haha, seriously! it irks me the media portrays canadians hating our system, i'd say 1 in every 10 maybe would prefer the US system (i use the word system loosely).

    i saw a funny picture in the paper during the olympics when Canada won hockey, some Canadian fan had a sign that said "at least we have HEALTHCARE!" i thought it was hliarious...

    more on topic, i saw in the paper some more pictures of the protests in greece.
    if you all think H₂0 is bad, go check out the molotov cocktails the protesters are throwing at police.

    maybe Aerial should raise the standards on what a violent protest is...
    but of course you'd have to start learning international country abbreviations. ;)

    Yes... that is your co-pay... but what does the premium cost?
    What does your employer pay the health care provider to cover you (and you family, if any)? that is the true cost.

    I should probably take that back... a pissing contest is only going to result in this thread being locked, and I'm rather enjoying (most of) these discussions
