Sad day for America

And some liberals have grown up, too.

Already covered in example one.

Not. Just because some people go from being liberal to conservatives doesn't mean that conservatives are right. Nor does the fact that many liberals stay liberals.

So you may go on thinking what you want.

As you may, defectively though that may be.

Pretty much. Just hold on...three more years.

What gets me is, this guy, though 'intelligent' enough, has made more blunders and mis-speaks than Bush did in 4 years, and they still praise him.

The Emperorer's New Clothes are still not shown for what they really are.

The good news? Nancy Pelosi has an 11% approval rating, and Reid's is 8%.

My sister, yes...

Having lived int eh UK, I can honestly say you pay through the nose. The spread between net income and expenses in the UK is much smaller. With lower high taxed wages and high costs you are screwed.

Fortunately I was on expat wages...LMAO.

You pay, like Canada your government is flat out expensive and broke.

It is in Washinton state. . where you said Walgreens is not accepting new patients, dr_jeff. ;)

My daughter was in a minor car accident. She told us her neck was bothering her. Local doctor in next town over told us the next available appointment was in TWO weeks. Ended up driving 135 miles to see a specialist in the next county. So much for USA medicine.

Bush was a puppet. He only did what he was told to do.

Did they have an urgent care clinic?

You mean to say the closest hospital was 135 miles away????

Most all hospitials have emergency services. You must be way out in the boonies to have to drive 135 miles to a hospital emergency room. Wow!!

Was your daughter seriously injured and how is she doing?

Imagine what this will look like when more hospitals close and many more doctors "retire".

I never once mentioned hospital in my message.

The local hospital here has a tradition.. come in with a cold, go out with a toe tag. Great place to be treated for a knifing, shooting, or overdose.

This was not an emergency. This was not life threatening. But it needed to be taken care of in less than two weeks time.

So then, the 135 mile drive was the result of your own choice, risking your daughter's life in the process.

Well, I guess I'm lost. Why did you post that you were "so much for USA medicine"? Leaving us the impression you could not get medical care for your daughter after an accident? Were you slightly misleading us perhaps?

BUT IT'S FREE!! LOL!

One incident does not prove or disprove the reality of medical treatment. Doctors in regular practice don't keep open time just in case someone wants to walk in the next day. You did get to see someone and if an emergency, you could have gone to the ER. In the case of an auto accident, usually an ambulance can be called at the scene.

My wife has a heart condition. When needed, she can see a doctor in minutes. Non emergency can take days and is no big deal.

And this is happening now, without the health care reform. St. Vincent's Hospital in Manhattan, which has served poor people for years, is on th verge of closing.
