    I like Toles’ take on this. It’s funny!

    Hitler shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.

    Well might the elephant have presciently stated, “It’s a hoax!”

    Ted Rall’s cartoons are typically pure genius compared to this mindrot…

    Well, parallels with Nazi Germany have already been made.

    “Slow Learners” are the media who will follow every sleight of hand trick with their “full offices”.

    Excelent analogy Mr. Toles!

    Unfortunately, like the balloon, this is over the heads of many people.

    Funny how the same citizens who see nothing exceptional about America, find it inconceivable that we could follow the path of 1930’s Germany if we give the government control of our doctors and hospitals, elect a lunatic, and suffer an economic crisis that necessitates the killing of some for the greed of others.

    Lest we forget, California is already funding experimentation on embryonic Americans under their misguided governor. If they do this is good times, what will they do in bad times?

    California is in the “Good Times?”

    Not know what the end of your sentence is going to say much?

    “Embryonic Americans”?

    charlie, would you feel any better about abortion if you knew the fetus would have grown up to be a liberal?

    (good grief)

    RV: Good relative to government mandated human experimentation. That is, if we voluntarily do this, what will the government make us do?

    fritzoid: OK, I’ll bite. What is your term for the conceived offspring of two Americans?

  17. charlie555

    charlie555 said, about 1 month ago

    DrCanuck: No, liberals have a right to be born too. And we all die conservative.

    And, your evidence for this is…what?

  19. ReasonsVentriloquist

    ReasonsVentriloquist said, about 1 month ago

    Under what circumstance could the government MAKE you do experimentation?

    And what difference would it make anyway?

    And do you have any idea how our system works?

    And what makes you think that the more outrageous the claim, the more likely it is to “come true?” Have you ever heard of Occam’s Razor? It has “two blades” so to speak in that just as the explanation with the fewest assumptions is the most likely to be true, the future with the least assumptions is the one that is most likely to occur.

    In order for your Grave World Order to come to pass a whole mountain of nonprobabilities have to move to the “happening” category.

    I’m not sure if you know about the mountain and Mohamed, but the mountain doesn’t move.

    “OK, I’ll bite. What is your term for the conceived offspring of two Americans?”

    A fetus, or an embryo, or a zygote. If it hasn’t been born, you can’t say it was “Born In The U.S.A.!”

    If we’re going to start worrying about the nationalities of embryos, I guess we’ll need to make distinctions between/among the following:

    1) Conceived in the United States to U.S. citizens, and born in the U.S.

    2) Conceived in the U.S. to citizens, but born outside the U.S.

    3) Conceived outside the U.S. to U.S. citizens, but born in the U.S.

    4) Conceived outside the U.S. to non-citizens, but born in the U.S.

    5) Conceived in the U.S. to non-citizens, and born in the U.S.

    6) Conceived in the U.S. to non-citizens, but born outside the U.S.

    Which among these would you consider “Embryonic Americans”?

    charlie, “elect a lunatic?” but I thought you liked Bush …

    “give the government control of our doctors and hospitals” … no one is suggesting that except, ironically, the rabid right’s constant refrain. That’s nationalized healthcare, as England has.

    We should all realize that whenever someone uses the term “national healthcare” or “governmental control of healthcare” they are, by definition, not being honest nor factual. No need to read/listen any further. There’s nothing to learn from them, no truth, no honesty, no legitimate discussion point. Move on.

    My mind is flooded with the thought of little eggs waving American flags as they are carried away by evil balloons headed for Auschwitz.

    Maybe residents of the 13 colonies before 1776 were Embryonic Americans, because they lived in an embryonic America.

    Charlie555…you’ve surpassed yourself! lolololololol !

    Frizoid: I would add to your very good list the fact that only one parent need be American whereas Charlie has stated ”conceived offspring of two Americans?” “or am I wrong?

    I saw a student today wearing a T-shirt with the logo, “You can’t cure stupid” and thought of charlie555.

    Whoever said I liked Bush?

    I’ll stop discussing health care. I’m obviously too stupid to understand how the present system will absorb preventative care for “43 million” more Americans overnight without the government controlling it.

    DrCanuck:

    God bless you for pointing out my stupidity.

  29. believecommonsense

    believecommonsenseGenius_badge said, about 1 month ago

    charlie, my line was sarcasm. Did you like Bush 43? or 41?

    I don’t think you’re stupid, but calling Obama a lunatic doesn’t help convince anyone that there’s something to be gained from reading the rest of that post.

  30. charlie555

    You misunderstood. I was not calling Obama a lunatic, I was making the point that America is not somehow immune from electing a lunatic like Hitler sometime in the future, so it is prudent to keep the separation of powers.

    If government has nothing to do with the education and health of the people, it will be difficult for a tyrant to take control of them for his agenda.

    [For the sake of all aborted Americans, I must add that, from their perspective, we have already elected many “Hitlers”. Because government is involved in health care for the poor, taxpayers are forced to support abortion. And this will be expanded as government involvement is expanded.]
