Yeah, one deliberately killed people (the Iraq War) while the other is trying to give health insurance to those that have had none in the past, thus saving people!
Cubefarmer, American casualties aren’t the only lives that count. And even if they were, your number is short by thousands. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_War
So we only count the deaths of Americans? How about the Americans who lost limbs?The Iraq war cost 10’s of thousands their lives, 10’s of thousands their limbs. Some of those were indeed American, none of them needed to suffer from our invasion.So what was the total cost of this war, who benefited?
“…..Obamacare? Hasn’t saved a life yet but Obama and most libs are defending it like it’s their ‘special’ child…..”.Presently around 22,000 (I’ve also read 40,000) Americans die annually of treatable conditions because they couldn’t afford coverage and around 100,000 declare medical bankruptcy. Under Obamacare that number will eventually decline to around zero. It would be zero under a single-payer system. That’s an incredible amount of human suffering saved and ample reason to strive for reform.

Obamacase isn’t about killing people so much as bleeding them dry. Killing is just a bonus. Bow to your corporatist overlords, citizen.

The Obamacare tech surge is run like putting 9 pregnant women in a room and expecting a baby in a month…

“The Iraq surge saved American lives.”The Iraq war cost 10’s of thousands their lives, not a good choice for comparison.

Is that a multiple choice question?

I see no fixation on big threatening cars; these are presidential limos. Maybe he feels threatened by big out of control administrations.
