  • Liberal Americans are sick, twisted people! After decades of liberal policies to sexualize our children by breaking down traditional barriers in television, movies, music, and discipline in our homes and schools, liberals in Philadelphia claim they have to give free condoms to 11-year-olds because 25% or so of them are having sex.

  • "People in this country today do not think, by a wide margin, that they should be paying for others in this country who don't want to work or pay for their homes or pay for their health insurance." God Bless Ronald Reagan.

  • @Chris6134 Amen

  • @phoenixbornagain Which GOP candidate do would you like to see receive the nomination?

  • @DM1387 Any one of them. They all would do a better job then obama

  • @phoenixbornagain Right but you must prefer some over others. Are you not concerned with Romney Care?

  • @DM1387 No. Romney, Newt, Rick and even Ron paul would be 500% better then Obama and since the country cant survive another "D" term... by what ever means it takes the "D"s are going out

  • @phoenixbornagain I hear you. I guess the better question would be, who do you think has the best chance at defeating Obama?

  • @Chris6134 Morning my old friend

  • @Efteling4Ever Leftist have no point. Do you work for Castro, Chavez.... ?

  • @olgadel1 Yes you are an idiot. Go have your grape juice and graham crackers.

  • Ron Paul 2012!!

  • And still we let them pass Obamacare. and before that Romneycare. Thank god for the Tea Party Movement,just pray it isn't too late.

  • “I’m a person who left school at 15 and I’ve worked all my life and I’ve paid into the system, and I’m not going to live long enough to get my old-age pension from this government.”

    - Debbie Hirst (Breast cancer patient, UK)

    “Once you have had the diagnosis you want to have the thing done. The longer it is in your body, the more chance it has of spreading.”

    - Linda Lucas (Breast cancer patient, UK)

    Death to all those who speard NHS deathcare

  • “This country would be nowhere without its elderly population. We have always worked and paid our taxes. It seems most unfair that we’ve got nothing at the end of it.”

    - Dawn Ford (Eye disease patient, UK)

    oh yeah the UK really have it all over everyone else LMFAO!!!!

  • Across the globe, citizens of nations with government-run health care systems experience long wait times, a lack of access to certain treatments and, in some instances, a diminished quality of medical care.

    “I wouldn’t like to see Americans make the same mistake Canadians have made… Patients in Canada are treated like Third World citizens. Our health-care system is like Cuba or North Korea.”

    - Lindsay McCreith (Brain tumor patient, Canada)

  • I mean the more we suffer

  • This gov are pigs, our so called economy is a complete opposite of what a real economy is supposed to be, the higher the GDP, the less we (the US citizens) suffer, in order to create profit, we must create problems i.e swine flu, flu shoot, colds, etc, THESE WILL NEVER BE CURED! IF IT WAS TH MORE MONEY THE GOV WILL LOSE! imagine, 40,000+ consuming robots walking around in stores, spending $4000 on a hand bag, that was made with just $10 in a sweat shop

  • At least a quarter of all youngsters admitted to hospital for surgery 'do not get adequate care' A child admitted to his local hospital with stomach pains died from a burst appendix after surgeons failed to diagnose the problem or to transfer the child to a specialist centre in time.

    The case is highlighted in the largest study of deaths of children after surgery in NHS hospitals, which found more than one in four received care that fell below acceptable standards.

  • Hey libs you know how we are going to kill obama care?

    “We’ll go through the gate. If the gate’s closed, we’ll go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we’ll pole-vault in. If that doesn’t work, we’ll parachute in."

  • @phoenixbornagain

    The gate is replacing Obama with anyone else. The fence is replacing every pro-Obamacare Senator & Representative with pro-liberty reps. Pole vaulting is electing pro-liberty governors & state legislators to stand up to the oppressive Federal government. One way or another, we the people will make sure liberty prevails against billionaire plutocrats like George Soros.

  • @veritas399 Great post. 100% true

  • We need another Reagan this is Jimmy Carter's second term.

  • @telemetry9 There is no such thing as FREE national health services in any country. It costs the citizens of that country in one form or another with money coming out of their pocket.

  • Well - considering I've paid into this system. What's the big deal? Everyone pays a relatively small amount = every can have free health care.

    But then again- we wouldn't want anything that might threaten the "superhuman" abilities of some who look down on those who weren't as privileged in life.

    Dr.Gabor Mate - is on youtube. I dare you to watch one of his videos. Bet you can't though.

  • @telemetry9 You have no idea what you are talking about a "relatively small amount." You also have no idea about what you are talking about with your socialist ideas in that this country is not supposed to be SOCIALISTIC but a REPUBLIC. I don't need a doctor to explain my own constitution to me, nor the laws of my own country, thanks anyway.

  • But by the same breath it is ok for the the government to bail out the nuclear industry in america? You're happy to do that right?

    Hanford cleanup - I use the words with caution. There's a lot of profit being made at the former reactor B site.

    I think the problem is that a lot of people in the U.S just aren't being told the truth. If you knew the subsidies given to the "free market" but yet you won't allow or have the humanity to give free health care to your fellow human beings. Sad.

  • @creature517 I have never heard a liberal put in their place any better then the way you just did. I tip my hat to you.

  • How Prophetic!

  • Remember when Obama's health care was being pushed and Putin warned us about socialism? The government should not be the consumer, especially when ordinary citizens are seen as consumable goods. To rephrase RR; we are well on our way to the belly of the beast.

  • Reagan was a corporate bitch!!

  • @32rumandcoke maybe, but a "corporate bitch" is better than the government bastards we have in both the oval and DC. 

  • @davekeays Amen! And after the liberal shit and scum are booted out of office the real "street cleaning" of their kind can begin... I'm ready

  • Socialized or not, US healthcare is rubbish.

    Facts about US healthcare:

    -the most expensive among developed countries

    -highest infant mortality among developed countries

    -lowest life expectancy among developed countries

    etc

  • @ArrowInTheKneeTroll we know it is rubbish but what are we going to do about it?

    "the most expensive": we're also the greater innovator which takes money.

    "highest infant mortality": I couldn't find that. I did see that the change from previous year was low here. But others had more room to improve, they count infants differently, and we have older women getting preg.

    "lowest life expectancy": if so then why don't environmentalists worship us like they do Ghangis Khan?

  • @davekeays LOL Excellent post! For all our self diluting illusional liberal fools who want to try and make everyone think because they hope its true that they want Obama to win...here is a bitter pill we will enjoy helping them swallow ^_^ hehehe

    "Poll: Americans, 2-1, Fear Obama's Reelection" When it comes to how Americans view President Obama going into the new year, there appears to be very little spirit of Auld Lang Syne.

  • @davekeays For all the Neolibs that are always praising the European model of government, I'm sorry to burst your bubble. The following is an interesting article which details the failure of European socialism. In this piece it points our that Europe needs 75 years to catch up to the US. This is an interesting read and it should be pointed out that this is EXACTLY what the Democrat party has in store for the United States.

  • @phoenixbornagain I hope you weren't implying I was a neolib.I definitely am middle of the road in some areas, but I lean way more too the right.

  • @phoenixbornagain "Europe needs 75 years to catch up to the US"

    More likely American car industry needs 75 years to catch up to the European car manufacturers like Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc.

    BTW, there are no trains in the US running at 200 mph(over 300km/h). Railways are not even electrified in the US.

  • @phoenixbornagain "In this piece it points our that Europe needs 75 years to catch up to the US" BWHAHAHAHAHA. Have you been in Europe? Have you spoken to Europeans? Europe has surpassed the US in about every aspect these days. Most Western Europeans consider living in the US a step backwards compared to what they already have.

  • The Democrats' own brand of racism, watching the recent PBS-hosted Democratic presidential debate at Howard University, I was impressed with the uniformity of the messages communicated to the mostly black audience. I felt like each candidate was reading from one script, making a nuanced change here and there so there'd be some differences between them. Every problem -- black unemployment, education, crime and incarceration, AIDS -- had one answer. More BIG government

  • The case is highlighted in the largest study of deaths of children after surgery in NHS hospitals, which found more than one in four received care that fell below acceptable standards.

    The report is by the National Confidential Enquiry into Patient Outcomes and Deaths (NCEPOD). Andrew Lansley, the Health Secretary, has warned NHS managers that they would be sacked if they failed to meet agreed timetables for achieving clinical and financial sustainability for their trusts.

  • At least a quarter of all youngsters admitted to hospital for surgery 'do not get adequate care' A child admitted to his local hospital with stomach pains died from a burst appendix after surgeons failed to diagnose the problem or to transfer the child to a specialist centre in time.

  • The magazine noted that the national anthem was playing, but the photo shows that Obama does not have his right hand over his heart. And he’s the only one: everyone else does! Network video footage of the event confirmed that Obama was the lone holdout in this traditional display of patriotic allegiance.

    Once again, this could be dismissed as an isolated episode, and was so dismissed by Obama’s defenders. obama supporters like nazis seem to never find flaw in hitler

  • really onto something. If Obama is vehemently opposed to a world defined in America’s image, to Pax Americana, then we would expect him to be cagey and defensive about displays of patriotism that convey America’s leadership in the world. Sure enough, a Time photograph from the presidential campaign shows Obama at a fundraising event with several other Democratic politicians.

  • Check out my channel I got great videos to share, the time of silence has ended

  • @MegaMan93703 how do you distinguish between truth and fallacy that is being opposed??

  • aaah... needed a good rant

    pisses me off that my dad is over there trying to win a war, while the commander in chief is cutting them off at the knees

  • @1classicliberal Then join the Tea party and fight for keeing our country alive.

    God bless

  • @powerhawk2000 and that's a great idea. I joined the 9/12 group in my area in 2009. ^_^

  • @Chris6134 the tea party, that is. 

  • saw our fearless leader on the tv today talking about downsizing the military. FUCKING MORON, makes me wish that we had the praetorian guard and not the secret service

    we may as well hand over the ENTIRE south pacific to the Chinese and all of europe to the damn Russians. OH but lets not forget FUCKING IRAN or VENEZUELA! we already know that the Russia and China are going to use these countries in proxy wars with us!yeah,lets cut us down to their size, make it a fair fight ya know.FUCKING HELL!

  • @Chris6134 Cuba or North Korea.” - Lindsay McCreith (Brain tumor patient, Canada)

    there is data showing that the first ones to come up with what we call Obama care, an other countries call the NHS was first called "the Spanish inquisition"

  • @1classicliberal About everything in your post sucks. "all of europe to the damn Russians" Stuck in 45, are we? Any idea of how modern western European armies are? How large EU armies combined are (larger than the US army). That it has 2 nuclear powers. That is has sufficient strategic reserves. If there is anything they are not afraid of in Europe these days .... it's the Ruskis. You are just wasting your money on some utterly useless army bases over there.

  • @1classicliberal About everything in your post sucks. "OH but lets not forget FUCKING .... VENEZUELA!" Really? Why. Venezuelas government probably sucks, but why so upset. Cause it simply doesnt give a f**k about the US maybe?

  • @1classicliberal "OH but lets not forget FUCKING IRAN" Totally preoccupied by Iran are we? Why, cause you dont dare barking up to them anymore when they have nuclear power? No wonder they want nuclear power. Keeps the US out of their business and their oil. But I guess them having nuclear power is bad, whereas an equally dodgy place like Pakistan, the ally that but f**ks you every way possible, having it is of course ok..........

  • @1classicliberal "makes me wish that we had the praetorian guard and not the secret service" Why? So they can slaughter your democratically elected ruler and offer the highest office to the cunt that is the highest bidder? That is what the Praetorian guard would do. Great way to go......................

  • if we choose to settle for the shame of moderation in a time that DEMANDS bold action, then we get the government that we deserve, and our country will most certainly be destroyed

    its just as well, this country will most likely not survive my generation as it is full of lazy, entitled, skilless, slothfull, morally bankrupt morons anyhow!

  • it is a time for choosing

    this republic has been brought to the brink, the very same ledge that EVERY other republic in the history of representative governments has been brought to... and over which ALL have fallen.

    our political system operates through paries, this is unavoidable, what must be avoided is 'faction' (as madison and Hamilton called it). that crap aside. as a republican primary voter It is my/our DUTY to stand with the MOST capable/intelligent/experience­d candidate we have

  • @Chris6134 It's not about what partyyour in man....don't you know that's part of the problem? "united we stand, divided we fall" this idea of political parties is dividing us, listen too yourself, republicans are just as dumb...their is a gov agenda, and "separation" is part of it

  • That's why we need to kill liberalism - this horrible disease infecting our geat nation. They need to be all committed to a mental institution for the mentally insane, because even massive brain surgery will not help those extreme retards who failed 9th grade like 4 times. These uneducated idiots don't even know their ABC's. Libs you will all die ! And I cannot wait !

  • @Chris6134 Obama stated there needs to be a more tolerant tone in america. He has that right he needs to go on air and condem the entire DNC and their supporters. Examples of liberal hate speech, here is the list:

    Death Threats Against Bush at Protests Ignored for Years [Zombietime pictureblog]

    Keith Olbermann 'Called To The Floor' for Bristol Palin 'Worst Person' Segment?

  • @Chris6134 The best way to verify a theory is to test its explanatory power. Our theory, derived from Obama’s testimony, is that he adopted his ideals from his father, and we know that his father’s ideals were anti-colonial ideals. Based on this, we are in a position to examine the merits of our theory by checking it against what Obama is actually saying and doing. If the theory can account for Obama’s major policies and enable us to predict what he is going to do in the future, then we are

  • The gov owns this country, via cencership, fear,brainwashing, and of course, my fav, dependence, they got the Americans so fucked up at least some can see thru the lies...face it, we won't ever have a real president, all puppets, the media plays a huge role, the fact that they use such tactics to get their agenda across, it's obvious, if your eyes are open you can see it real clearly

  • @ghettofreeze look it up, just type it in 13 year old boy interrogated by CIA at his middle school about written comments on face book, LOL so you feel stupid now? It was a media uproar, all over, it's an old story, but it shows that our gov can do what they want, when they want, to who they want, and nothing we can do about it, and here you are thinking I made it up your just a sheep

  • @Damn6Deal6Done6 Also, i don't think "what if my house burns down?" who thinks that way? so your solution is to give handouts? Your not even from here so I doubt you know a damn thing you don't know, that these fuckin doctors HIDE alternative medicine, instead they just give you pills? Did you know they GET PAID per-prescription? And you think a gov that can't even run a cash for clunker program can run this??? Your an idiot!

  • @Damn6Deal6Done6 Are you dumb? AMERICANS WILL LIVE! I'll be damn if I'm FORCED to pay for a liberal, I will not support fat slobs, TAXED so they can have a discount on freakin starbucks???? serious dude are you an idiot?

  • mmmm now why do they want waivers from something so great, mmmm?

  • Campaigners said the poor standards of care were 'unforgivable’ and were part of a ‘pattern’ which is being repeated across Britain. Janet Scott, research manager at baby death charity Sands, said: ‘Healthy babies should not die in labour. ‘These are not babies who were ill or born too soon. These are babies who started labour healthy and died because of failures in the care they received.

  • difficult for the bureaucrats — they already have more than enough paperwork with which to deal.

    I am sure fawltytowers is a good "beans on toast" slave

  • He saw socialized medicine from the inside and argues forcefully that it doesn't work for the following five reasons:

    1. The patient can't choose the doctor. The bureaucratic process makes the important assignment of which physician shall treat the patient. After all, he who pays the piper calls the tune. There's little room for free choice — for shopping around — for switching from one doctor to another — when medicine has "to go by the book." Too much freedom for the patient makes life

  • What's wrong with socialized medicine? A friend of mine put it more concisely than I've ever heard it put before. His name is Dr. Roberto Calderon — he is a radiologist in Managua, Nicaragua.

    Dr. Calderon didn't just answer the question with exotic theories. His insight is derived from a decade of experience, from a time when the Marxist Sandinistas ran his country and tried to put the state's bureaucracy in charge of almost everything. AKA NHS IS SHIT

  • If government ever does to health care what it has done to the Postal Service, we will be well down the road to contracting the national illness known as "socialized medicine." With so many regulations already, it's arguable that we're halfway there now. We'll know we've reached the end of the road when doctors become federal employees and medical care is "free."

  • The Washington Post, for example, which has largely ignored the scandal, ran a front page story recently, but made sure to quote anonymous Obama administration officials who praised the gunrunning strategy and claimed it was "unfair" for Congress to investigate.

  • Don't Minimize Obama's 'Fast and Furious' Guns Scandal. The elite media are at it again. They're trying to downplay the Operation Fast and Furious scandal that has rocked the Obama administration, and they're using the scandal to push the same tired calls for more gun control laws.

  • 9:02 What does that mean? government doesn't tax to get the money they need, but the government will always find a need for the money they get.

  • @absolumentpasdutout You're just figuring this out?

  • One of the Greatest American Presidents.

  • If you update a few statistics, this is just as relevant today as it was 50 years ago. Reagan knew how terrible socialized medicine was, even back then.

  • Socialized failure dissecting health-care data from Britain, Canada, and elsewhere. The health-care systems of all developed countries face three unrelenting problems: rising costs, inadequate quality, and incomplete access to care.

  • Hey libs you know how we are going to kill obama care?

  • @Chris6134 Well we will just cut their posting tongues out ^_^

  • @footstomp1 That's a great plan ^_^

  • @Chris6134 'Substandard' NHS maternity care may have caused the deaths of 21 babies, a damning report has found. An independent inquiry has revealed that the unexplained deaths, which occurred during labour or childbirth, could have been caused by delivery delays and inadequate resuscitation attempts. The investigation into 15 hospitals in the West Midlands also found staff were failing to properly monitor patients and report problems.

  • @footstomp1  Good post. Sounds like that type of health care system is suicide and does not work.

    "These are babies who started labour healthy and died because of failures in the care they received."

  • @Chris6134 More Obama allies get waivers from costly Obamacare mandates. If Obamacare is so great, why are its biggest supporters seeking waivers of its costly provisions? And why are Obama backers the primary recipients of the many waivers from Obamacare that have been granted? As Dr. Milton R. Wolf notes, "seven entire states and 1,372 businesses, unions and other institutions have received waivers from the law.

  • @Chris6134 Rubbish.

    I live in the UK, and have used the National Health Service all my life. I can vouch for the quality of the care that I have recieved, and I'm sorry, but it is such a shame that so many Americans delude themselves about the so-called evils of socialised medicine, when it is such a hugely popular institution.

    All these cases below are isolated incidents. In fact, the rationing one is in fact untrue; American doctoris find it harder to get treatment for patients.

  • @BasilFawlty4444 No. If you think that system is so great - that' fine - stay over there in the UK then or try the Canadian health care system. People over there are dying waiting in line for surgery. The quality is terrible with this type of government care. There are many cases not even mentioned here about these incidents. Many more. We do not need this here because it will NEVER work. We are BANKRUPT and taxed to death already ! Therefore NO to socialized medicine.

  • @Chris6134 Amen great post

  • @footstomp1 All of these cases are isolated incidents. Indeed, the NICE "rationing" is infact completely untrue. As a Brit, I can vouch for the quality of the NHS.

    In actual fact, a study by the Commonwealth Fund found that 48% of doctors in the US had problems getting treatment for their patients, compared to only 6% in the UK.

    All healthcare systems have problems; don't try and pretend that the US is immune from this. The figure above just proves this.

  • figure as the same amount of hospital beds needed to care for every woman in Canada experiencing pregnancy and childbirth at the same time.

    Obama deathcare is DOA PDQ NOV 2012 RIP Amen

  • Canadas NHS sucks shit! In the Oregon’s Future Spring 2004 Forum, we discussed medical errors in the US and Oregon—but this is not just a US problem. In May of 2004, The "Canadian Adverse Events Study" revealed that adverse events in Canadian hospitals cause between 9,000 and 24,000 deaths a year.

    The "Canada Institute for Health Information" extrapolated that nonlethal adverse events cause Canadians to spend more than one million extra days in the hospital. The Canadian press reported this

  • @phoenixbornagain Bravo ^_^

    "Canadas NHS sucks shit!"

  • @NewSocietyRBE Why didn't you have insurance before?

  • @SlobbyHill She had insurance, but another company was giving the same offer at a lower cost so she switched.

  • @SlobbyHill I suppose she made a big mistake and we had no idea companies were doing that during the 90s, but such things were under the radar at the time.

  • @Lobbyistdantelynch Then it would be best if you went elsewhere.
