This is just plain silly. You are wrong. nm
.
You are talking yourself into a frenzy.
Are you freaking out? I am worried about you.
Spare your energy to avoid the swine flu.
I made the mistake of feeding the gt troll
won't make that mistake again. There is no debating with a sociopath.
'a couple of hours??' Are you feeding charcoal?...nm
nm
Yeah, and what about those communist Catholics feeding the poor? :-D
The French are something else sm
just go and Google "French military victories" and hit "I'm feeling lucky" and you'll see...there is no such thing!
The people who gave us crepes, light little pancakes with no substance, now give us their political views - which are about the same - lacking substance and important.
Since when is French a race? sm
Why do you call everyone who disagrees a leftist or liberal loon?
Are there no French Jews? TI
This is news to me! I also speak German and Hebrew. What is your point?
Better brush up on your French, Sirpercy.
I have used the British and French healthcare
I have visited and used both the British and French national healthcare system and I must say I was treated very_well in both countries.....and I think it is a great idea for THIS country now, having had first-hand experiences in Europe..
JMHO, of course.

French healthcare is 'badly run'

Plans for spending cuts have drawn protests from health workers |
France must make big changes to its health system in order to cut waste and increase efficiency, a government-commissioned report is warning.
The report says citizens must pay more and doctors must alter their behaviour.
Failure to do so could add 66 billion euros a year to France's public budget deficit by 2020, it adds.
The warning comes after thousands of health workers protested on Thursday over staff shortages and the "creeping privatisation" of the health system.
'Badly regulated'
The report was written by the High Council for the Future of Health Insurance, an advisory body set up by the government as it prepares to introduce healthcare reform legislation in June.

PRESCRIPTION BILL
Average French GP prescribes drugs worth 260,000 euros a year
The French use three times as many antibiotics as Germans
They use twice as many anti-cholestorol drugs as Britons
A fifth of health spending goes on pharmaceuticals |
It includes representatives from the health insurance industry, trade unions and medical professionals.
The report was given to the Health Ministry on Friday, but details were leaked by the Reuters news agency which saw a copy.
The standard of care provided by French doctors is ranked among the best in the world, but the report says the system is "badly regulated and badly governed".
"The High Council believes that general confusion over who is in charge of what partly explains the excesses," it says.
"Everyone - institutions, healthcare professionals and social security contributors - will have to change their behaviour."
Higher insurance payments?
The report says French general practitioners prescribe on average 260,000 euros' worth of drugs a year.

BUDGET STRAINS
Health spending nearing 9% of GDP
Projected healthcare deficit this year - 10.9 billion euros
Deficit in 2010 if nothing is done - 29 billion euros
Healthcare deficit to account for 20% of total public deficit this year |
It says the French consume three times as many antibiotics as the Germans, and more than twice as many anti-cholesterol drugs as the British.
The council also highlights the CSG welfare levy - a charge paid by workers, the unemployed and pensioners - as an area for possible reform.
"The High Council is unanimous in its refusal to turn to massive indebtedness to cover the growth in health insurance expenditure," the report said.
"The CSG, with its large base and the principle of proportionality that underpins it, could seem like a possible answer," it said.
The council said even a structural shake-up of the system would not necessarily rule out the need to raise further revenues.
Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin, which set up the council last October to advise the government on healthcare reform, said last week the government had not been planning a rise in the CSG as part of the healthcare reforms.
Growing deficit
The report says an ageing population and the high cost of advanced treatments will help push health spending past 9% of gross domestic product - one of the highest levels in the world.

Number of doctors per 1,000 people
Italy - 4.1
France - 3.3

UK - 2.0

Experts have already warned that a projected healthcare deficit of 10.9 billion euros this year could rise to 29 billion euros by 2010, unless action is taken.
Looking further ahead, the report says the deficit could rise to 66 billion euros by 2020.
Health Minister Jean-Francois Mattei has already put forward a plan known as "Hospital 2007" proposing management reforms and a new emphasis on cost assessment.
Problems in the French health system were exposed last year, when a heat wave killed around 15,000 mostly elderly people.
There was also a bed shortage in hospitals in December, when a nationwide flu and bronchitis epidemic broke out. |
Yes it is from tthe French '.imbecile', that means
having an intelligence of a 3 to 5-year old!
If you're Jewish why are you posting in French instead of Hebrew?
Les enfants israeliens meurent aussi.
And yes, Israeli children die, as well. But many more Lebanese children died at your hands.
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N15364953.htm
Citing U.N. statistics, the IMC said more than 300 children were killed in Lebanon and 1,000 wounded while a further half million youngsters were displaced by battles between Hizbollah guerrillas and Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry names eight Israeli children killed by Hizbollah rockets, including two 18-year olds. The total Israeli death toll is estimated at more than 150. It is unclear how many Israeli children were wounded.
LOL, how silly
I know, he he he he, LOL. My gosh, blame the liberals for everything in this world that does not go the right wingers way, OMG, LOL.
Oh, you silly. nm
That's just silly.
Where do you get such ideas? Afraid of him...hardly!
Now that's just silly. nm
That's just silly.
God's salvation is really not that hard to gain. He is not a cruel God, but one who expects those on earth to treat each other with kindness and compassion. Your equation is all wrong, but I will pray that you will see the light before it is too late. God would welcome you into heaven.
That is just silly!
Anyone who makes less than $50K--and who says that we do?--must be racist if they don't support Obama? Thank you for the laugh!
It isn't silly at all.

This is silly
Why would I post anything here only to be attacked. And you guys call us rabid? I have my reasons for what my vote will be that I have tried to explain, only to be called numerous names. I believe that we have saved many more innocent lives in Iraq than we have taken, but we are not going to agree and I have finished defending my stances. Liberals talk of how intolerant conservatives are, but have not even noticed their own intolerance.
Silly? I think not.
It started below with Kaydie saying NO ONE gave their reasons for voting for change, etc. etc. How about your REAL reasons for voting for McCain. Abortion is a legitimate issue for some and not for others. I meant how about giving some real reasons for voting for McCain? Do you think her will raise taxes? lower taxes, end the war? What? Don't ridicule those of us who would like to see WHY you are really voting for McCain. We've been ridiculed enough for voting for Obama. If wanting to know your personal reasons is silly then so be it. Who knows, if you posted enough REAL reasons you might change some of the undecided voters but constantly hammering Obama is not going to do it. Well....maybe it will for some but not for people capable of thinking for themselves.
Silly! That is because
if O can apologize for us and smooch enough butt to make everybody really LIKE us, we won't need national security. One world, world peace, whirled peas, whatever. We'll all sit together and sing kumbya with the world court to keep everything fair. Who could object to that?
How silly. Who cares what
she goes to the bathroom. Why don't you focus on something that matters?
Just trying to show how silly all of this is.
Why not think of ways to make the world better on your own instead of cooking up stuff. That's all I am saying.
Lol. That's silly but funny! nm

You silly woman
Where on earth do you get your so-called news? Moveon, Kos, or DemocraticUnderground?
If you care to ignore the teachings of Saul Alinsky, what do you think about his "church" associations?
Bill O'Reilly will be doing "The Obama Chronicles" on his show this week (or however long it runs), starting with Wm Ayers & Bernadine Dohrn.
If you're looking for documented accuracy, Rush Limbaugh is certified 98%-ish right. I hear it so often that the way it's said escapes me, but the libs know it, too. That's only one reason they hate him so much. Of course, the first is that he's got over 20 million listeners. Nobody can touch those numbers. Incidentally, I'm one of them.
Silly fact
McCain blinked over 3000 times during the debate. Somebody actually sat there and counted.
Ya know what, Silly Goose.........sm
You're not such a silly goose after all.
I agree that, as a public forum, we should be allowed to post what we want (within the realms of human decency) without meeting with ridicule and namecalling.
It may be that, come tonight or tomorrow or whenever the results of the SC decision are posted, I will be wiping egg off my face in order to eat a huge plate of crow (smothered with onion gravy, if you please), but I think the matter does need to be investigated and every person posting here has a right...yes, a constitutional right...to post his or her opinion.
Thank you for putting into a cohesive and coherent manner exactly what I had been trying to say earlier but seemed to have failed so miserably.....that this is still America and that we still have a right to our own opinions.
it's silly with a capital "S"

I know - how silly that we should know whether he is qualified.

You silly girl
I'm getting my claws sharpened. HA HA HA
I know your posting to try to get a "rile" out of people (is rile the right word?)
So all I'm going to do say is this.
Thank you for the advise. I turned off my TV yesterday (well actually I did watch some DVDs). So thank you for the advise.
Silly me, I forgot...
... Oklahoma City in 1995 too. The good news just kept on coming during Clinton's presidency.
My adivce to you: Let go, you are silly....nm

Why you silly thing you....
it doesn't apply to HIM...just like the transparency thing...yeah, Bush should have disclosed all the people HE met with in the white house, but NOT Obama...Okay when the big "O" does it though. Just amazing, isn't it? So many bought the larger-than-life superhero who was going to fix all the country's ills...but, come to find out...not even a year into it...he is just Barry from Chicago, uberliberal politician, no better and in fact worse than what left, the fox is in the henhouse and we are stuck. Pitiful, ain't it?? Gotta laugh.
Oh, that's just silly. So you are a mind reader? I don't think so.
It's obvious what happened. Give some of us the benefit of having a brain.
No not silly. History is repeating itself. sm
He is very similar to El Duce the fat moose Mussolini. He disassembled the existing democratic government system in Italy. Bush and Co are doing it here through the USA Patriot Act. Yes, the times are different, but the ideology is the same.
People so silly in this country.
I undertand beter than U what this is!
Nothing silly about population control.
BTW....we ARE animals.
I think it is pretty silly to think she didn't know...
about birth control. We do 1.2 million abortions a year and I don't think any great number of those girls/women didn't know about birth control. C'mon.
That's a silly question, of course we have...most people do
but it should be up to us who we help, not the gov't.
Sure will be relieved when these silly analogies
Nobody's listening to that crud anymore.
I'm sure by now you realize how silly your post was.
By the end of the day, probably a million or more.
Say this to yourself three times a day, and you will avoid these little faux pas: "I will not post prematurely. I will not post prematurely. I will not post prematurely."
If the condition has not cleared up within a week to ten days, repeat the treatment, but drop the word "prematurely".
That is a pretty silly statement. Does that make...
everyone in the south a racist? Everyone who is white a racist? Everyone who is Christian a Baptist? Please do not pigeon-hole me. And what does that mean, anyway...support Bush? I support many of his policies, including going in Iraq. I have never even been to the website you posted and did not even know that existed until you posted it. To include me in any agenda there is irresponsible and wrong. You don't like to be lumped together as all liberals.... yet does not bother you to say anyone who supports Bush is a Neocon. Gimme a break.
Nothing silly about the fear McBush inspires
There is one thing that all of these frustrated, angry posters have in common. All have lived their lives under 8 years of the Bush regime; some in denial, others in bondage.
well of course...how silly of me...don't bring up the timber in our eyes...
concentrate on the splinter in my own. Got it. LOL.
I know.....kind of a silly statement on its face...
and I imagine you were not the only woman in America who wanted to or did throw a pillow at the TV.
I figured out Silly Sally! See inside!

Call me silly, but I thought that republicans
are US voters and it is offensive to call something like this "typical." How many others have you seen do such things?
