And this was what I was referring to all along. Not the hard working

satisfactorily been explained to me, by anyone - not just Ken, is how
it is OK to throw half a trillion and counting at this war, but $35
billion for health insurance for children is unacceptable. Staggering.

Both are ratholes. One is much larger than the other.


One rathole kills people. The other helps people. And God knows, we
don't want to do that! "Who Would Jesus Bomb?"

Has anybody even stopped for 30 seconds to consider WHY Bush vetoed
that bill? Do you really think he cares about all that bull*** about
entitlements? Does he really want people to suffer?
Or is he simply catering to his big-business buddies in the insurance
and medical fields who stand to benefit from the status quo?

And I love the arguments trotted out whenever the discussion is
national health care. They Repugs always say, "They have to wait
months for an appointment in Canada and nobody wants that." Well even
if true (it ain't), wouldn't that be preferable to not getting any
care at all? Not to mention the cost savings to the patient.
