Maybe they’ll just pull a hillary and announce, “It hurts my feelings”

Can’t have that, you know. *rolls eyes*

I hate the degree to which we’ve allowed PC to trump everything. I still remember in the 80s, somebody asked Orrin Hatch (back when he was still worth something) about whether Republicans have “heart.” His answer was, “ Actually, I have the heart of a Democrat (slight pause) I keep it in a jar on my desk.”

“Remember all the leftist said we shouldn’t respond to 9/11 because we will make the radical Muslims mad at us? “

That’s right, so absurb!

Do you have a link to something like that so I could post this on a forum where I currently have a discussion about this?

Thanks.

sorry man, I am only quoting from memories. I'm sure if you do a google, you will find plenty of articles and posts by liberals urging us to do nothing and hopefully, "they" will go away and not hurt us anymore...

Or you can just pull out Hitler's pulling wool over the European's eyes before WW2...

How about those who die from AIDS?

I bet that isn’t included in “preventable deaths”.

This is nuts! The European healthcare system is based on delay and deny triage. So, what the article is actually saying is that patients who see a doctor with a treatable disease or injury and are still ailing when they get to the doctor after the mandatory three month waiting period, have a better cure rate than US patients that are treated in emergency rooms and clinics.

Thanks anyway, I will search this way but I just can’t base my critics on some quotes from some anonymous liberal bloggers. We also have some conservatives claiming we should nuke all muslim countries or turn their mosques into churches.

A few extremists points of views does not help in building theories.
