"President Obama refused Friday to commit to more troops or a draw-down in
Afghanistan. He's not ready to address it yet. He believes we must show
great patience on Afghanistan, however we must hurry up on health care
reform because people are dying."

IOW you're a right wing fanatic and don't understand that your view,
for 8 years, has led nowhere in afghanistan, so it's time to change
strategy

uh...OK...

Well, if you look at the raw numbers, that would be right. Something like
45K people die every year in the US because of lack of healthcare.

I'm pretty sure he can do two things at once though..

She's probably including those people who were aborted. Lots of them
died without healthcare.

If you use the 'jobs saved' type of reasoning, you could say that
anyone who died in a given year did so because of lack of healthcare.

If I'm not mistaken, 'bama saved almost two million jobs just today.

I like your logic. Reminds me of the ship's officer of the deck who entered
in its log: "The captain was drunk in quarters today." When the captain read
the entry, he threatened the officer with a fate worse than death if he ever
wrote a falsehood like that again. The next day, the captain was really
beside himself when he read in the log: "Captain was not drunk in quarters
today."

It's actually a fact. It's a disturbing fact. Just like the 1000s who die in
hospitals due to hospital acquired infections. It's a huge problem that we
don't see mentioned much in the media... probably don't want to frighten
people.

I like your logic.

The "logic" is mostly a right-wing agenda comment.

Break out the illegals and aborted and get back to us.

BTW, are you trying to set some kind of data entry record? Nine posts
