Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Hey BJ , I work at a local University, there are over 1300 of us here that pay the samething on Health Care Insurance, plus we combined with 10 other Universities including LSU and NLU and several other small colleges. My insurance premiums are not an anomally.
On your “Public Options” polls, I didn’t see any links to backup your statements. Can you provide some ?
And last but not least, you didn’t answer my question, so I assume you are either a disgruntled Canadian Liberal or an Obabot.
Which one is it ?

Sorry Kate, I’ll stop feeding the Trolls.
“Hey BJ , I work at a local University, there are over 1300 of us here that pay the samething on Health Care Insurance, plus we combined with 10 other Universities including LSU and NLU and several other small colleges. My insurance premiums are not an anomally.”
You work at a University, your insurance premiums are not those of the average American.
Here you are, you could have easily found this yourself, if you had bothered to back up your own worthless rebuttal.

Satisfied? Surely not, the usual around here is to just stick your head back up your ass and pretend you didn’t see anything…like any good Neo-Con would do.

BJ, the average US citizen working for a private company has their Health Insurance paid for them, or they pay a lower percentage. It’s called Company Benefits. Have you not heard of McDonald’s, Wal-Mart, Super1, Lowe’s, or Target ? My Health Insurance Premiums are not sky-rocket high as you Liberals are claiming. That is one of your talking points for pushing ObamaCare. So, basically you lie, and then get pissed when your called out on it.
Hahahahhaaa, NYT, NPR, CBS and Reuters are not reliable news sources. If that is where you get your news from then I repeat my previous statement; ” You don’t know what the hell you are talking about. ”
You still didn’t answer my question. It’s pretty obvious you are a Liberal, but are you a disgruntled Canadian Liberal or an Obabot ?
Hopefully, when CWII breaks out your lil liberal arse will be on the frontline.
Cheers ! Go join a gun club and buy yourself a Bible, before it’s too late. Come to the light. You will be saved.
,
Just for you BJ. Shows just how full of BS your side really is. $1.3 Trillion for ObamaCare for 8,000 new Democrat Voters. Hopefully, everyone of these 8,000 have pre-existing conditions and end up on Sarah Palin’s Death Panels. Now, get down on your knees and kiss the southend of a north bound jackass. Finding one should be easy enuf, just head on down to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

“My Health Insurance Premiums are not sky-rocket high as you Liberals are claiming.”
Quote me. It remains a FACT that the US health care system has higher costs…the health insurers make a good deal of money, with a good portion of their gross revenue NOT going towards medical care. The US health system costs 50% more than Canada’s as a % of the country’s GDP.
“So, basically you lie, and then get pissed when your called out on it.”
Where did I lie? Quote me. Pissed? Hardly.
“Hahahahhaaa, NYT, NPR, CBS and Reuters are not reliable news sources. ”
HAHAHAHAHA! Typical Neo-Con argument…No news sources are reliable…except FOX of course. What a joke! Reuters isn’t reliable? The NYT isn’t reliable? Are you on crack? Are you implying that all those sources fabricated their polling data? Please, you’re pathetic attempt at saving face is childish at best.
“Go join a gun club and buy yourself a Bible, before it’s too late. Come to the light. You will be saved.”
Tell me you’re kidding! Buy a Bible..come to the light…I’ll be saved?? Tell me you’re not a bible thumping simpleton!
Your link to a BLOG is laughable….Reuters is unreliable, but any jackass with a blog is chalk full of solid gold facts? Please.
Your reference to ‘Death Panels’ is a clear sign that you’ve fallen for all that right-wing, Neo-Con propaganda BS spewed daily from that boob-tube you sit yourself in front of. Let me guess…FOX news told you so.
BJ said; ” Are you implying that all those sources (NYT,NPR,Reuters,CBS) fabricated their polling data?
Yes. But, I shouldn’t have to imply, it should be obvious. Weren’t these the very same sources of yours that got caught photo-shopping battle pics out of Beirut when Israel bombed the hell out of the Iranian supported Islamic Terrorist Savages ?
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/21956_Reuters_Doctoring_Photos_from_Beirut
Furthermore; these are the very sources that supported Dan “Even though this document is fake, the message is true” Rather. Which made it very clear that the Democrat Party and the Left-leaning Media were working hand-in-hand to fabricate a scandal to try and destroy a sitting Republican President. Can you say; “Sedition and Treason” BJ. Yea, I got cha, those sources.
BJ said; “Your reference to ‘Death Panels’ is a clear sign that you’ve fallen for all that right-wing, Neo-Con propaganda BS …”
CNN’s Wolf Blitzer had a segment on lastnite about the “End-of-Life” conversation between a Doctor and a Patient. ObamaCare will reimburse the Doctor for that conversation thru Medicare. Thereby; creating ‘Death Panels.’ Sarah nailed that one.
Your against Bibles and Guns BJ ? You won’t do well in CWII.
Moreover; judging by your’s and the Lefts building anger as you see your self-arrogant “kill the bourgeois at any cost” policies going down in flames I predict your side will start rioting sometime after the 2012 elections when we send Kuta Kentay packing. And that will be the catalyst of your destruction.
The only thing a boob-tube is good for is Football, Nascar, Bill Dance, and Kill it and Grill it with Ted Nugent.
Cheers BJ, gota go to work now, you know, State Job and all.
Oh wait, you seem like a fellow that is in tight with the left side. Could you possibly post a link to Obama Hussien Barack’s Birth Certificate ? I would prefer a link to the one in Mumbasa, Kenya. Thanks in advance.

“Yes. But, I shouldn’t have to imply, it should be obvious. Weren’t these the very same sources of yours that got caught photo-shopping battle pics out of Beirut when Israel bombed the hell out of the Iranian supported Islamic Terrorist Savages ?”
Do you understand how Reuters is organized? It employs thousands of journalists…the actions of one journalist does not discredit the entire organization forever, in all endeavors.
What news organizations ARE credible then?
You have to be a complete ignoramus to deny multiple polls, by multiple CREDIBLE organizations (what’s your problem with the NYT?) all telling the same story…polls show that the majority of Americans support a public option.
“CNN’s Wolf Blitzer had a segment on lastnite about the “End-of-Life” conversation between a Doctor and a Patient. ObamaCare will reimburse the Doctor for that conversation thru Medicare. Thereby; creating ‘Death Panels.”
Huh? Nice logic…or lack thereof. So a doctor discussing options with a patient who is terminally ill and suffering immensely (such as someone who is going through their 4th round of Chemo) is somehow a ‘death panel’???? It’s been shown that end of life discussions extend life expectancy and increase patient well being.

“Your against Bibles and Guns BJ ? You won’t do well in CWII.”
I never said anything about guns…but the Bible? It’s for simpletons, it’s for those who cannot grasp modern philosophy (ie. cannot think for themselves)
“Cheers BJ, gota go to work now, you know, State Job and all.”
Typical…a state employee bitching about the state…here’s a start…find a new employer.
BJ said: “What news organizations ARE credible then? ”
None of the alphabet channels + NYT, they are just an extension of the Democrat Party. Kindof like the Unions now days. I haven’t caught FOX outright lying, but it’s what they don’t say that is disturbing. Not to mention; have you ever been watching CNN, FOX, MSNBC and HLN and they all go to a commercial break at the sametime. WTH ?
BJ said: “You have to be a complete ignoramus to deny multiple polls…”
A poll from the NYT, Reuter’s, CBS or NPR ? Don’t make me laugh they will poll 1200 and 900 are registered Democrats, and 300 are names they picked out of a phone book. Plus, who is home during the day to take polls, can’t be Republicans or Independents, we are at work. Besides, the last Statistics class I took was in the 400 level. You can make polls do anything and say anything you want.
I ain’t bitching at the State, you have that confused, my bitching goes a hell of a lot higher than that, my bitching goes straight to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Don’t have to bitch about Jindal, he is doing bad enuf on his own, will say this though, that Oil Spill in my beloved Gulf Coast is gona cost Obama and Jindal their jobs.
So, your’re telling me 4 – 5 Doctors get together and decide who is gona tell Mrs. Jones she has 6 months to live and who is gona tell Mr. Smith he has 2 weeks to live is not a ‘Death Panel’ ?
You say Reuter’s can have a few bad apples, but on the whole the organization is sound. Ok, but then you turn right around and say anyone who reads the Bible is a simpleton. Why does your logic work for Reuter’s and not Christianity ?
Let me ask you this BJ. Would you agree the 10 Commandments is a good set of rules to live by ?
Dude, I am exactly where I want to be, have been working since 13 years old, got 30 years into Social Security and 15 years into the State Teachers Retirement. Two more years till retirement and I’ll start my own restaurant. Hell, I’ll even serve beer to Liberals they gona need something to cry in after 2012.
TGIF BJ. Cheers !
“NYT, they are just an extension of the Democrat Party.”
BS…MSNBC plays that role, just as FOX plays the same role for the Republican Party.
” I haven’t caught FOX outright lying”
Clearly you haven’t been watching very closely, or at all. They constantly distort and lie.
“can’t be Republicans or Independents, we are at work.”
Riiiiight…and GW Bush was a shining example of that! Please, don’t try and pretend like the line between Rep and Dem is anything but a blur except for who one votes for.
“A poll from the NYT, Reuter’s, CBS or NPR ?”
How about a poll from the folks who INVENTED modern polling!! I find it remarkable that you’ve ignored the link to ‘gallup’ (or perhaps unremarkable, considering the common strategy here of ignoring whatever does not fit one’s opinion).
“Besides, the last Statistics class I took was in the 400 level.”
Ooooh…well then, you MUST be right!
“So, your’re telling me 4 – 5 Doctors get together and decide who is gona tell Mrs. Jones she has 6 months to live and who is gona tell Mr. Smith he has 2 weeks to live is not a ‘Death Panel’ ?”
What the hell are you talking about!? An ‘end of life’ discussion is NOT a doctor telling a patient how long they have to live. It’s a discussion regarding the best course of action…whether or not a 4th round of chemo therapy is the best choice (ie. should one risk a painful, sickly, horrible radioactively induced death, or try alternatives and concentrate on quality of life).
How can you compare an organization of journalists with a religion? One is a career, with independent people each doing their job…the other is an organized religion, where everyone reads the same 2000+ year old book, written in a time before science and modern philosophy. Religion is a primitive way of relating to the world and one’s self.
“Let me ask you this BJ. Would you agree the 10 Commandments is a good set of rules to live by ?”
I will agree that nothing in the 10 commandments is ‘evil’ per say, but it’s a simpleton’s way of relating to life…it requires little to zero conceptualization, it requires little to zero introspection, the things you see around you were not created by basing your life’s actions on 10 single sentence statements (more like 5 since they are repetitive).
Good luck with your retirement, funny that, someone who claims to be a CONSERVATIVE, and complains about state involvement in society relying on a state funded pension for his life. Great work, must have been tough staying under the radar long enough to collect that STATE pension.
