Universal health care is... terrorism?!

Left: Is Rep. Roy Blunt of Missouri really Batman's adversary, The Joker, in disguise?

Universal healthcare is terrorism? That's the latest Fox News talking point.

I just have one question to ask Fox News at this point. As you probably know, Israel hates terrorism. Hates it with a passion. They do everything they can to stamp out terrorism with every asset and resource that they have.

And Israel has universal healthcare.

So, Fox News: Are you saying that Israel's government is committing terrorism against the Israeli people?

Meanwhile, Rep. Tom Price (R-GA) and Roy Blunt (R-MO) say that Medicare is evil and should be eliminated. I heartilly recommend that the GOP run on this platform in the 2010 elections. Running on a platform to eliminate LBJ's socialized government healthcare will be, like, just SO much a win for the Goopers. Medicare is the second-most-popular government program *ever* (behind only Social Security), and nothing will elect Democrats better than the Goopers running against Medicare. Permanent Democratic majority, woot!

  2. Actually, wasn't modern-era terrorism an invention of the pre-Isreal Zionists in the late 40's?

    You know - the first generation of leaders in Israel. Begin and Shamir were both involved in blowing up the King David Hotel in 1946, with 91 deaths.

    Ancillary to your point, I realize. We're probably better off with Quebecois terrorists
