I can think of only two people who would use that story to indict the USA.



What, that we have a country that allows corporations to fire someone
because they get sick? What a wonderful country.

A person got fired - justly or unjustly. If justly, the country did nothing wrong. If unjustly, then
the employer is at fault. How do you possibly get off indicting the USA for this action?

I really can't understand why anyone responds to any of your ****.



There you go again, with the personal insults.

Read what you wrote. What you wrote was an indictment of America based on what one woman gave as her
side of a story.

It was ****. We've all written some **** in our time. That happened to be an example of yours.


I'm not engaging in personal insults against other posters here. You
are. Period. It's perfectly within your rights to not like my political
opinions, as it is within my rights to not like your political opinions.
No need to make it personal.


Horse manure. A journalist who writes **** should expect to face the consequences. Seems like that
happened fairly recently. Both Lara Logan and David Kilpatrick wrote some ****. Logan got fired.
Kilpatrick was simply supporting a liberal newspaper which revels in lies.

Both wrote ****, which is what you did. I suppose you feel insulted, but on the other hand, I live
in the country you continuously insult.



I think it is reasonable to attack an idea you don't like, but I don't
see where it is necessary to attack the person *here* who posted the
idea you don't like.

You seem to be admitting defeat, and stating you cannot control
your temper and engage in adult-level conversation without engaging in
personal insults.

I had a feeling the righties who post here would not be able to control
their tempers and would engage in personal insulting even if the usual
"object" of their hatred (me, of course ) refrained from those same
sort of personal insults. Thank you for proving me correct. At least a
half dozen of you righties, many of whom complain about the "tone" in
rec.boats, are perpetuating the tone you claim you don't like.

This, by the way, is not a venue of journalism in which people who are
paid to write are paid for what they write here, so therefore I think
your attempts to make comparisons to Ms. Logan or Mr. Kilpatrick (never
heard of him, actually) are invalid.

As for *your* country...it is *my* country, too, and I would like my
country to do a better job of what most people would find important.

Oh, and I shall continue to not engage in personally insulting other
posters here, and simply observe the hypocrisy of "the right."

As always, have a wonderfully terrific day.
