      Well first off, it's a graphic for the WAR for the white house.
      Second off, it's also a parody of CNN, the world's worst place to get your news. Nothing but over the top, flashy, CGI garbage, to keep you distracted from the fact that, they ain't got sh it going on.

I voted Obama...all my friends did...not a single one them can name something universally positive he did...he was thoroughly disappointing as a president...not a bad president but disappointing because he had great opportunity to change the course of the country and he kept status quo in favor of compromise...the the opposing sides just got more racist, richer, and bolder.

    With all due respect even if it is mandated health care its good
    because we cant let people die if they're sick
    and we can't just expect that people are resposible enough to have insurance
    and btw the "evil Saudi Arabia" also has free healthcare and many others

    Except that those "poor people's" bills ARE on the backs of everyone else who is with that insurance company. The difference between a government healthcare system supported by taxes, and a private one supported by insurance premiums to private companies, is that the government doesn't do it for profit and thus more of the money you would pay as your part of the health system would actually go to healthcare.

    It may lower taxes, but there's a greater increase in the cost of insurance, which everyone would have to be required to buy or it wouldn't help at all.
