    Why is the Republican response always delivered by a bumbling person know one has ever heard of?

    Look at this guy's eyes. Looks like he just smoked a J.

    Wasn't there supposed to be a Tea Party response? I've had their site open and nothing came up...

    if any of these guys actually care about lowering the budget what does cutting a 100 million here or there do. They need to start looking at the big 4 which makes 90% of the budget.

    "In the end, unless we fully repeal ObamaCare, a nation that currently enjoys the world’s best healthcare....."

    You're ****ing kidding me right?

    The WHO ranks the US at # 37 overall

    http://www.who.int/healthinfo/paper30.pdf

    Infant mortality rates US at # 29

    http://www.webmd.com/parenting/baby/news/20081015/infant-mortality-us-ranks-29th

    We're 36th in life expectancy

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_life_expectancy

    U.S. health care spending at approximately 16% of GDP, second highest to East Timor (Timor-Leste) among all United Nations member nations.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_in_the_United_States

    :rolleyes: Keep feeding the people lies, I liked how she slipped in all of the patriotic fluff at the end as well.

    "The perilous battle that was fought in the pacific, at Iwo Jima, was a battle against all odds, and yet the image of the young G.I.s in the incursion against the Japanese immortalizes their victory. These six young men raising the flag came to symbolize all of America coming together to beat back a totalitarian aggressor."

    WTF was that all about? Who's the Japanese in that analogy? Liberals? Obama?

    The President speaks about coming together and this idiot just keeps pushing divide and conquer.

    God help us all.

    I'm very glad everybody doesn't have your sorry attitude. Next time you complain about anything in this country, I'll help you pack and contribute to your one-way ticket outta here.

    My sorry attitude? I so happen to think we have one of the best countries in the world. I am not the one posting statistics about how awful our country is.

    Yeah, it's not like he wants to see us improve our areas of weakness or anything crazy like that.

    Bravo.

    Teach these boys that a true patriot of his country would rather deny the existence of these stats than post them. That a true patriot would never scrutinize the government's actions.

    FOR SHAME s land balla. Posting true statistics that show your country in a negative light? You should just LEAVE because those things will not change, and they shall never be talked about.

    Space Ghost, I've repped you for the schooling you just gave these guys.

    You don't need to get upset over someone else's opinion. If you dislike this country's free speech this much, you can leave.

    I agree about our great country. When I land back at IAH after going overseas, I feel like kissing the ground (seriously). Traveling around the world so often has proven to me how truly great America is.

    But our nation has a boatload of flaws and there nothing wrong with naming and discussing any of them. In fact, stifling legit discussion is a good way to make sure we don't stay great and go into decline. Lot's of governments around the world don't realize that.

    Now, if you are completely delusional and don't think there are any big problems here that need improving, please get help.
