Thank God for the teabaggers. The way things are going here in the states with healthcare alone, it's them who're the constant thorn in the side of the big Pharma companies and all corrupt politicians.
Teabaggers are going to save the USA
By the way, Obama is against the teabaggers. Obama wants to turn the USA into socialist Russia. The Teabaggers want to see corrupt gov't dissolved.
If you don't live here in the USA, don't assume you know what's happening here....like most of you do.
pitterpat....the united states of america have been assuming that they know what's happening in the rest of the world (to use your same words) for decades...so know you can expirience what is like to be judged from someone who doesnt have the RIGHT TO JUDGE YOU. And by the way,just so you know I am an American too (and proud of it), I'm living in Europe and have family in the States, but as much as it would probably matters you, I am as American as you are. Have a nice day sir!!!
Grow up Miguel, I've lived in the UK and the UAE while maintaining my American citizenship. I've traveled the world thanks to my career and I don't talk out my a$$ when it comes to employment health benefits, gov't benefits as a citizen abroad and as qualified and registered voter in the USA.
All my days are nice, thanks, I'm the one that makes them so.
I'm glad I live in a country where I get free health care, less crime than the US. And I'm pretty certain I don't know anyone who owns a gun. No-one here need ever worry that they won't get top health care if they are sick.
This is hilarious though http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/08/12/hawking_british_and_alive/
You know, it's good living in a country that cares about it's citizens
Although I agree with the last guy that he should bring back arrested development.
It's really depressing to see these people, who are probably good, hard-working Americans, fall prey to the lying and scheming of the health insurance and pharmaceutical companies.
People, if your only sources of information are right-wing talk-radio and Fox News, you're not seeing the whole picture. In fact, you're only seeing what the rich, white elite wants you to see. From some of those signs, it's painfully obvious that these people don't even know what they're protesting... they're just automatons wound-up by the business lobbies, fed full of lies and hate by the Republican party and set loose with pasteboard and markers.
Truly sad... You'd think that in the 'age of information' people would have more a clue...
Stick with the script! This is OBVIOUSLY a coordinated astroturf campaign. The people in those pictures were probably chosen because they couldn't read the signs they were paid to carry, otherwise the very untruth would probably strike them dead.
zombie Adam Smith, you are a moron. This is clearly a case of leftist projection on your part. Just because the left uses Soros's money to hire protesters doesn't mean that this is why there are so many INDEPENDENT citizens protesting this clear invasion of their freedom by a runaway government.
If you want shitty government health care, there are plenty of countries offering it. Though the Canadian system is about to fail, and you might take a look at the debt being incurred by Norway, for example.
Educated, you have it exactly right. My father was laid off in 2006, lost his health insurance coverage. My mom worked for such a small business that health insurance was not offered and private insurance for both of them would be over $1500 a month because of prior health issues and that would have left them nothing to live off of each month. Two weeks after his insurance ran out and while he was applying for jobs, my dad suffered a massive stroke. He is now an invalid and my mom cannot work because she needs to care for him. They are financially devastated. Their savings are gone and they are going to sell their house that my dad built with his own hands to pay for the $160,000 in medical bills. They will probably move in with my family this year (in a 950 sq ft house for six people). So, tell me... is it my dad's fault he had a stroke two weeks too late? Or is it the broken system?
there was a lot of lies told by the republicans,,,,,,,,,,all they said about the British Health care system was wrong,, there are no panels deciding if someone lives or dies,,, surely any country which boasts it is the richest in the world, can have over 40 million people without healthcare ???

Your sarcasm is effective, however, as you sound just like one of the kool-aid drinkers.
