Dear Schwochert, here is another definition for you:

McCarthyism: Tthe politically motivated practice of making accusations of disloyalty, subversion, or treason without proper regard for evidence. The term specifically describes activities associated with the period in the United States known as the Second Red Scare, lasting roughly from the late 1940s to the late 1950s and characterized by heightened fears of communist influence on American institutions and espionage by Soviet agents. Thats U

Don't you just love the people on Medicare raising hell at the townhall meetings against healthcare reform? They must think Medicare comes from the North Pole on a sleigh. The healthcare system is sinking and some of those with coverage are in the life boat fipping off those without it. I have it, but still think it needs reforming. The one ingredient for progress is "change". Otherwise you end up with stagnation.

just say no to the obama  socialist heath care plan

[DaveListerDwarfer]

When you use the word Socialism, I know that you absolutely have NO CLUE what that means.

[Schwochert]

Collective principles- a.k.a. collectivism- is a term used to describe any moral, political, or social outlook, that stresses human interdependence and the importance of a collective, rather than the importance of separate individuals.Specifically, a society as a whole can be seen as having more meaning or value than the separate individuals that make up that society. Collectivism is widely seen as being opposed to individualism.

[Schwochert]

socialism- 1 a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

OR "REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH" AS OBAMA LIKES TO SAY!!

2. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.

3. (in Marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.

[Schwochert]

but i suppose that the Republicans wrote the dictionary too.

[DNM35]

yes !!!!...revolt!

[pk5787]

"The greatest country on Earth" and wages are dropping , we're fighting wars that are financed by the Chinese, handing over billions to wall street greed mongers, and yet we are not giving our own people cradle to grave health care. Something stinks in America.

[DNM35]

yes what stinks are liberal minions of the left like you..you are NOT true Americans and you MUST be DEFEATED AT ANY COST!!!! down with ALL communists!!!!

[DNM35]

oh btw..u are SPAMMED!!

[Balancement]

20,000 people a year are dying because they don't have health insurance, access to treatment. Almost 55 people a day. Remember those numbers as each day goes by. Remember that as the Insurance company lobbyists pour $1.4 million a day into Washington.

We're better than this, people--we really are better than this.

[Silverjda]

where are you getting these stats?

[jtravis282]

No they shouldn't ram this healthcare plan through. On a per person basis Americans spend nearly twice as much as other nations on health care. For instance, France covers everyone at half the cost. The plan proposed by the House will cost even more according to the Congressional Budget Office. This is nuts.

The last thing we need is more debt. Get it right, don't don't rush any crap bill.

[pudgenet]

It is dishonest to say that because some people have been trying for years to reform health care, that it is NOT rushing to push a thousand-page bill through the House in a few weeks. Please let's try to be rational.

[wildwilly1111]

Good ad - although PETS (People for the Ethical Treatment of Snails) is going to go postal.

[Dabipster]

Don't worry the Coalition To Protect Mollusks From Computer Generated Foot Stompings (CTPMFCGFS) is all over this.

We have no sense of humor, no grasp of reality, and we are having a bake sale to cover the court costs.

[wildwilly1111]

"...we are having a bake sale..."

Not an Escargot cook-off?

[integral]

Mmmmm.

Deep fried escargot. Yum.

[knixphan]

Yeah, we expect the Repubs to be on the take from insurance co's. It's a shame that the Blue Dogs are as well.

We MUST get rid of the DINOS, so that the middle class can have somebody fighting on our behalf.

Out with Baucus, Reid, Nelson, Bayh...

[carolynnmi]

It's not just the Repubs; it's also the Blue Dog Dems.

Pls try to notice who's bot by who, and contribute to those who seem more buy-able by us.

[twmcgill]

Nice. I had this exact same conversation with a closet Republican at work the other day. "We're rushing" "No we aren't, Truman tried to reform it"
