Now the abortion thing is trickier b/c of religion and sterile couples and for that matter gay couples… and in believing control only comes from abstinence. But as a conservative with HUMAN values that include getting the government out of your pocket does that not also translate into having control over your own body? Honestly, I have not made up my mind on how I feel about this issue, but I do know that I would like the choice to be mine. Just think of it this way: there would be less babies out there to use up medicare and feed off the system the conservatives worked soooo hard for. Less women out there eating up our tax dollars with prenatal care.
HA! not only that but the abortion clinic also provide more jobs which contributes overall to the conservative style of economy. We all have a part to play, and dead weight only drags us down. So maybe it’s time we embraced both sides of Human values: logic and emotion.

What are we when we act upon a carefully (LOGICALLY) thought out plan? That’s right we are happy. And guess what that is: that’s right kids EMOTION. They are meant to go hand in hand; together. That is why we have both. I think liberals would probably be absolutely fine with the conservatives in power if they would respect everyones choice in partners. Gayness doesnt hurt anyone. The reactions to gayness do. Especially the feelings of gay people everywhere who are being told that their love isn’t allowed. Loving your dog (which is a DIFFERENT species, which you can’t communicate with properly) is different. My heart breaks in the thought of not being able to marry boyfriend one day (don’t worry conservatives, I’m a girl)…(and by boyfriend I meant, he’s a boy).

To sum up my fore mentioned thoughts. I believe conservatives have the right idea, and I really love how logically thorough they are, but you must really try to see the world thru the eyes of a non-religious person, whom makes up a great deal of society. So that you may see that the hated directed toward your party comes from the hated you place on people who are different than yourselves in lifestyle. The thing is, gayness is not a drug it is exactly the same thing as straightness. It would be interesting to see what your party would get if you could just give a little bit.

I work in orthopaedic spine surgery and I will tell you firsthand that we have the best doctors, surgeons, nurses, hospitals, and technology in the world. Ken mentioned in his previous post some key issues that raise our healthcare costs through the roof and over-burden our system.

If the govt. wants to get involved in healthcare they should start by securing our borders. Illegal aliens abuse our emergency rooms as their primary care (standard care for Boris) and are bankrupting hospitals across America. 45 hospitals went out of business last year in the state of California alone.

Sedondly, the abusers that Ken mentioned, those that use their health insurance because “someone else is paying for it” drive costs sky high too. Lastly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published the clinical data that confirms over 40% of all chronic sickness leading to premature death could be PREVENTED! They say, improve your nutrition by eating 5 or more fruits and vegetables everyday, stop smoking, limit alcohol to 2 drinks or less per day and cut overall sickness and disease almost in half. We don’t have a healthcare crisis in America, we have a disease prevention crisis plain and simple.

I see them everyday, morbidly obese, chronically sick, smokers and excessive drinkers that get treatment or surgery and don’t get well. They have zero motivation since Medicaid or Medicare(that’s Free Healthcare for Boris) is paying for it. With socialized medicine as Tom W. described these people will NOT recieve care because their BEHAVIOR has created co-morbidities that put them outside the parameters for “pre-determined” quailty of life outcomes… they will simply be left to die. So maybe some liberal socialist can tell me if this is the compassion they have in mind as they plunder our pay checks for taxes or will they be honest and tell us its all about the power and control (I’m not holding my breath).

This post started under the banner of “Liberal Radio’s Very Bad Week.” There is a reason liberal talk radio is a failure. Because on radio you can’t distort the facts day after day, week after week, month after month like you can in print media or mainstream news. The dialogue with real Americans won’t allow it.

You can be sure that if someone gets serious about cramming this down our throats in the US, the media will ignore all of the numerous examples of failure everywhere this has been tried.
