      Oh Man, it was just a matter of time.

      Cute though,he managed to link the environmental movemnent with Health Care Reform. Now if they could somehow link with the 'birthers', it would be the trifecta.

      Or better yet, link the environment, health care, birthers, marxism, facism, socialism, ACORN, Ayers, and Wright we could have another chart. That would be cool.

        Thank You for giving them a fresh idea. <sarcasm>
        I am beginning to believe that the Right is so inundated with ConLogic that they never have an idea..NEVER. Thier brains are liquified.
        The way they come up with anything new, is that one Rightie remaining who has the ability to read and understand any Liberal or even Moderate writings informs them of what is happening outside of the teabag or teacup in which they reside. Then after processing it for a month, it becomes an idea. Then Drudge, Lippy and Seannie bid on it to see who uses it first. This is Conservative thought process.
        Look at the birthers....as much as I hate to say it, they are being led around by thier umbilical cords like zombies.
        Looking for any doctors out there who can correct the terrible disease known as Mush Brain, which is covered under President Obama Health Care plan. Who says Democrats have no heart.

      This from the same idiots who

      - publicly questioned the sexual preference of SpongeBob SquarePants

      - claimed one of the TeleTubbies was homosexual and thus a bad influence on its preschool audience

      Wingnuts: STILL unable to distinguish fantasy from reality.

      Interesting logic...

      A. Doctors currently do extra tests now to avoid being vulnerable to malpractice lawsuits.

      B. The government will only do one test, because they are not going to be sued for malpractice.

      Since when has the government said it will be taking over MALPRACTICE insurance for doctors? I haven't seen that proposal. Secondly assuming you take the Sopranos actor at his odd claim, why are Republicans (which this doctor seems to be siding with) arguing for tort reform as a cornerstone of their approach to containing private healthcare costs which limits exposure to doctors being sued in many ways?

      It's what I've been saying all along. One day we're giving free healthcare to poor people, the next we're processing old men in potato chip plants.

      What movie are they going to claim health reform is going to be like next? Logan's Run? Where all people over 30s are deemed too old and have to be killed.

      How about "Aliens" where Barack Obama's health plan causes aliens to pop out of people's bodies.

      Well, if government run (HA!)health care results in just throwing away old people and the US doesn't do that because we order tests, wouldn't those countries with government run health care have shorter life expectancies? Or wouldn't their survival rates for kidney or liver disease be much worse than the US?

      And yet...

      Does anybody around Cavuto use logic or do the bright lights of the TV cable set blind one's brain?

        I forgot to point out that the music in the scene where Edward G Robinson commits suicide is one of my favorites, Beethoven's Sixth Symphony (Pastoral) just a marvelous, evocative piece of music.
