Let's hear it for socialized medicine...

[DustyMoment]

WooHoo - HillaryCare sneak peek. Gives me a warm, fuzzy . . . . .

[OldFriend]

Yup, hilary care on the way!

[Brilliant]

The wonder of central planning.




A genuine cynic would say that the system worked just as the French envisioned that it should.... A wretched Anglo is dead, but that's what they were hoping for anyway.

At the time of Hillary's first attempt to destroy American health care, I said that treating doctors and nurses like so many bus drivers will result in them behaving like a bus driver's union. Looks like we can put paramedics in the same category.

Screw that. When the call is dispatched you gotta go, breaks be damned!

[Blood of Tyrants]

Let's not forget the unions!

efforts were made to resuscitate him both at the scene and on the way to North Middlesex Hospital, where he arrived at approximately 2:10 pm.

And that is also where I arrived in the world decades ago! Thank heavens my old man had the good sense to emigrate.

I wonder how many more such stories we have to hear before the good people of England tell the frogs and krauts to shove the whole thing up their arses, and tar and feather any politician who supports remaining in the EU? One can dream, I suppose.

Long time ago when I was working fast food this police officer comes through the drive through. He places his order. Before he gets to the window he gets a call and blasts out of the drive through lights and siren going.

Bout an hour later he comes through again and orders the same thing. Places his order, gets to the window. We take his money, but while waiting for his food he gets a call. Blasts out of the drive through lights and siren going.

Hour later the poor chap comes in again and finally gets his food that he has ordered twice already and paid for.

so much for the hypocratic oath

Just wait until the Moslem taxi drivers who refuse to accept working dogs as passengers get promoted to ambulance drivers.

"a crew transporting a mental health patient 10 miles between two hospitals, drove 200 miles, using the vehicle's faulty satellite navigation system, before realizing their error."

If this guy was sent the same crew as mentioned above, he wouldn't have made it anyway.

lol- the stinking EU- Yep- let';s emulate their terror coddling, citizen suppresion system Can't weait for the eurodollar to make it's way here- that'll be a sure sign of our impending doom

[sgtbono2002]

DC Firefighters work a 24 hour shift and the only breaks they get is when there is no responses or no training drills.

I cant remember the times I got up from a good meal and responded.

[SittinYonder]

ping ...

[lightman]

Euroweenies. No sense of honor. No commitment to anything other than themselves.

That'll be most of us in less than a generation.

But NOT all of us.

[SittinYonder]

Good tagline.

As for England ... they're already frenchified IMO. The English can look to the burning bus fires in France to see how bright their future is.

My concern is whether or not we'll learn from Europe and remain the last beach, or are we destined for 30-minute breaks for emergency personnel while the muslims riot in the streets.

[Cacique]

Coming to a city near you. Now that the Democrats have a mandate they will push for all this nonsence. Unfortunately they will be in cointrol for the rest of the century. Once they pass Bush's pet project called "amnesty for illegal aliens" and the 2010 census redistributes the population and congressional seats (as well as the electoral college)to where most illegals currently live they will lock this country up for democrats for the rest of the century.

They will have to placate a very radicalized hispanic minority who believe in Liberation theology catholicism and view Fidel Castro and Che Guevara as iconic heroes. If you think the democratic party is radical now, just wait and see.

[Atchafalaya]

10mi=200mi WTF? Bloody Nomad drivers. Note, hire a local!

[lndrvr1972]

You mean they could not respond because they were on mealbreak? I would love to know how many meals I have missed when I recieved a call to respond.
