All of the accused allegedly used terror tactics in order to further their political aims. If guilty, they'd be terrorists. Happy? What do you want me to do, start a rally, hold a sign on the highway, call my ombudsman?

Neither have the recruitment center shooter-uppers.

How would you know; none of these people have been tried.

No, I'd be "okay" with giving welfare to corporate vampires masquerading as health-care providers if it would get everybody health care, but I wouldn't be "cool" with it. As far as determining who gets what, I would think it entirely appropriate for the government to set guidelines as to what standard level of coverage would mean in a taxpayer funded health care program. Hayekian boogeymen aside, what's the problem here?

Uhhh, because anti-abortion wacko fucknuts make up a substantial portion the Republican electoral base which is not the case with the Democratic party and Islamic wacko jihadist fucknuts?

Yeah, Ronnie's got a real good hold of Cheney's forearm there and it's like he's like guiding and pulling Cheney in at the same time.

If nothing else, Spray is great for recommendations for Fascist books! It's like Oprah's Book Club for antisocial mental defectives.

Yeah, I mean Nazi Germany only lasted what, 10 or 12 years? National health care for every American could throw us into another dark age lasting centuries! Let's not pretend that a scheme that gave every American a voucher sufficient to purchase comprehensive coverage from private insurers is something that you'd be cool with. After all, under such a scheme, private medical spending wouldn't be outlawed, and people would still be free to spend money on acne cream, boob-jobs, tooth-whitening, LASIK, and whatever else they deemed important and valuable by their own lights. Yes, let's take the focus away from your dumb original point for a moment. Given the ongoing track record of our corporate "citizens" and the single-minded focus of the health care industry on profit-taking, giving them corporate welfare to sustain the idiotic procedures you mentioned and subsidizing the R&D for the next great discovery in making old men's weenies hard again is decidedly not "something I'd be cool with".

And alienate their last remaining supporters?! Uh, no.

Gotta love the GOP base.

So would he.

"extremely intelligent"? that's kind of a funny assertion....i guess "intelligent" can mean many different things to different people.

Saying anything is "Hayekian" these days as if it's a good thing and has some connection to reality has got to be up for some irony award or something. Hilarious! Thanks.

We can't seem to build walls fast enough. Better start militarizing Vancouver, WA.

and be sure to blame "capitalism" when the problems are grounded firmly in socialist/statist policies imposed by the left-wing nuts who have bankrupted the state Should be interesting to see what will happen if those "socialist/statist" programs (education, healthcare, etc.) get cut as the cited proposal suggests.

Jurgen Habermas can.

Then again, I know history doesn't really jibe with the brand of hermetically sealed parlor puzzles you like to construct here.

The 800 pound gorilla in the room being, of course, that the free rein given this narrow notion of freedom and liberty by political and corporate elites during the last 30 years has made America demonstrably dumber, fatter, more unequal, more aggressive, polluted, and suspicious.
