This is INSANE. The GOP (I argue the moderate wing on the democrat party) has utterly failed to deliver on getting rid of Obamacare. Obamacare has cost the liberal democrats EVERYTHING. They are out of power as you can be and the GOP opened the door for a clobbering. Yet, the democrats say, “don’t forget, however bad the GOP is, we are worse.’

Peter Hitchens wrote his column last Sunday saying the UK needed migrants to do work because the locals are too drugged up to work.

True in Canada and I see people washing out in workplaces (I have two) clearly looking like zombies in this country.

Business needs to cut expenses for the mess people get themselves into with addiction. Single-payer cuts health care expenses for business.

Bumrungrad hospital in Bangkok is considered to be one of the best 10 hospitals in the world.

It is very nice. I took a group of HS students to Thailand several years. One of the girls in the group developed appendictus and needed emergency appendectomy. We had no issue with the standard of service or the cost.

I didn’t hear any threats of veto either. All I hear is Pelosi first presidential term has started. Iit was bad enough that only the freedom Caucus was against insurance company bailouts.
Trump was ready to bail out insurers and the freedom Caucus held the line. This will not go well.
His overly friendly relationship to gun grabber Manchin is making me wonder if a 2A assault is coming next.

Thanks for your response--I'm glad to hear your student was able to receive their appendectomy in a timely way--that could've turned out badly if they hadn't.

That said, appendectomy surgery is not quite the same as treating complex cancers.

“All I hear is Pelosi first presidential term has started.”

Oh no, I hadn’t heard that. Shivers!

“His overly friendly relationship to gun grabber Manchin is making me wonder if a 2A assault is coming next.”

I’d like to believe he’ll keep to his campaign promises. But it’s getting harder and harder. I hope we haven’t been duped.

Honestly tell me what kind of deal you think shumer and Pelosi will make? Do you believe it will put American kids first?
This is exactly how we got anchor babies. History is repeating.

Show me where I said anything good about the Democrats.

I never did.

So are you for or against deals with shumer and Pelosi? If you are lauding the deal, it would imply you agree with it. Do you agree with a deal that isn’t good? Sorry, but Its implied if you agree with shumer n Pelosi, it’s because it is good.
No one would laud a deal they think is bad, would they?

It depends if Trump is manipulating them or not. I have said this before but you seem to be thinking in only one dimension. Democrats bad, Republicans good.

Unfortunately, I think Democrats are bad, and most Republicans are also bad.

IF, and this is a big if given trumps statements lately, he is trying to manipulate Congress of both parties in order to get a wall built, then it would be a good thing. If he is actually going along with the liberals, then it would be a bad thing. We never know what is happening behind the scenes and if the mainstream media is reporting things in order to distance Trump from his base.

So far I would say it looks very bad. I’m just hoping that I don’t see all of the details going on. Otherwise I think it is time for a revolution.
