Cavuto is just pissed, cause his medical plan doesn't cover liposuction.

http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6457602.html?display=Breaking...

this is just further proof that the reichwing is on its last leg. not to say that they won't have followers and supporters, but their followers will continue to dwindle and be more and more representative of your butt-ass crazy, drunk uncle mick (you know the one i'm talking about, the one that has driven the wrong way on the interstate on more than one occasssion and likes to drink ketchup straight from the bottle)

NRO’s Jerry Bowyer (whose expertise in matters medical, be it in the UK or here or in terrorism is never actually established)

not only are they not established, he works for Scaife:

Michael Moore's next movie -- hurry, please -- must be a shakedown of broadcast media. Can you imagine what, say, the C&L team could do with a sufficient budget + M. Moore in producing a film so funny, so devastating, so revealing that people like Cavuto and O'Reilly would never appear in public again? This is my fantasy. I cling to it.

this meme needs to be crushed immediately.

it is on par, on the watkin's stoopid-scale, with the meme that the climate crisis is a communist plot

Neil Cavuto is such a little shit. He's always so goddamned smug and passive-aggressive, when the facts are clearly not on his side.

Is there one damned thing they can't take and warp out of shape just to have a pissing match with? I think these people just enjoying bull shitting their way through life. There must be a group somewhere who do nothing but make up stuff and then support it with bogus facts. Why? Is it because they aren't bright enough to deal with reality, so they have to invent thier own?

More proof that the Right Wing is in its last throes. Almost 50% of Americans favor impeaching Bush. I don't recall seeing a poll in which that same number favored impeaching Clinton.

Are you listening, Nancy? I sent her an e-mail. I hope I wasn't alone in pointing this out:

Samson- @ 4:

note: kaiser permanente, please send your "donation" directly to the office of roger ailes. thank ya. and remember, your cash buys faux noise propaganda.

LOL

Let me see.
Terrorist plots stopped before they did any damage.
They all were in Britain.
They were commited by Islamic Medical doctors.
None were suicide bombers.
They got to England because of universal health care.
Universal Health care promotes Terrorism.
Sounds bizzare to me.

Universal health care plan does not cover stupidity.

When it's time to do something about these people other than belly-ache on internet blogs and forums....let me know.

No wonder Al Queda is able to find new recruits... they've got a great health care package!

It all makes sense now.

pissed off patricia @ 16:

With that many errors in one comment, maybe I should join their side.

You'd need to use your AllCaps button more :)

Only a doctor would make a car bomb out of a Mercedes.

I was afraid that there would be anofficial backlash against the movie Sicko, but had no idea it would take advantage of this (possibly faked) terrorist plot in Britain.

David Schuster (sp?) takes over hardball tonight for chris. It's excellent. They should can Chris and give David that show. He is by far a much better guy for the spot and he dosn't allow anyone to get away with any shit. Tonight's show is a perfect example. Also Neal could take some lessons from David. David isn't into just making facts up and spouting them out there.

I used to work with Jerry Bowyer in the Duquesne University Cafeteria way back in 83-84.
He was a lazy disingenous whiner back then and I see he hasn't changed much.
He worked there for 4 years without distinction or promotion, I joined the crew, worked my tail off and was promoted to student manager in 3 months.
Crybaby Jerry was incensed and ran to management to whine about having senority in time and age over me. For added sympathy to get a pay raise he may or may not have whined about having a hideously ugly wife and kid.
He was a fundie religious fanatic back then, always with Bible or some other religious tract in hand. I used to get a kick out of pulling his chain on religious matters. I thought he was studying to be a minister. Turns out it was the perfect training for what he's up to now, if you can convince people of supernatural fantasies it's an easy segue to convince them of any GOP talking point.

So the terrarists would first plug us then drug us?

"come to the same conclusion that a national healthcare program creates a bureaucracy and need for foreign doctors that Al Qaeda is only too happy to take advantage of."

In other words, we know exactly what illogical fantasies keep the pants-wetter brigade up at night in cold, desperate terror.
coWards.

Next come the terrorist veterinarians and their exploding cows.

I can see the next Osama bin Laden video coming out.

"we will crush our enemies by bringing single payer health care to the United States"

Y'know, after I stopped laughing, I realized something: These particular terrorist plots were about the most bungled, inept, half-assed, amateur-night fiasco in possibly the entire modern history of Islamic terrorism against the west. I can't help but be grateful that the NHS is incapable of producing a decent suicide bomber! Thank god for universal health care! Not only does the NHS provide decent health care for everyone, they also make crap terrorists! An argument FOR universal health care rather than AGAINST, I'd say...

this is just so gaspingly *gasp* stupid.

how, i mean HOW(!), could anyone--no matter how ignorant and rightwing they are--believe this crap? is it just b/c it is on TV? (like homer simpson "TV said that?")

i just wish the neofascists would take a second to put the logic together. OBL, the man who has put the death curse on all americans, is going to do so through establishing healthcare for everyone? this doesn't even pass the basic logic test.

do the the wingnuts need a sign in front of the stall to tell them to "unzip zipper" before the pee? me thinks so.

lookie here....you guys don't know what you're talking about....

i just saw one of them there terrorists crawling right from under a rock looking fer trouble...

he had one of those stethoscopes on and asked me if i had my yearly pap smear...

boy, was i scaered....

ticktock @ 51,

Is that where they're hiding the bombs now? I guess the airport screening lines just got longer.

I guess that's the right wing reply to Sicko, I'd say it's sad that's all they can come up with, but given the seemingly passive, uneducated, incurious lot they are preaching to, it's probably about all the situation requires. The depths the media have plummeted to in this country are astonishing.

Universal Healthcare: Does it breed terrorists?

or how about...

Fox News: Does it make you gay?

Dick Cheney: Is he responsible for dead babies?

Bill O'Riley: Is he really a secret member of Al-Qadia?

Rupert Murdoch: Is it true his penis is only one inch long?

How can someone like Cavuto walk around without bouncing into every concrete abutment and lighting fixture is beyond me. How the fuck can someone be that goddamn stupid?

I should hope that the right-wing's "last throes" really are that, rather than being like God-Emperor-and-branch-unto-himself Dick's proclamation a few years ago that the insurgency was in it's "last throes."

and, just like all of their hollow prattling about "honor and integrity" these neo-con butt-dumplings aren't all that big on being accurate about anything either...i'm sure that nobody could possibly have forseen that (/condi)

What does it tell us that there are no right-wingnut trolls in this discussion? Even they can recognize a losing argument when it's this obvious.

Site Monitor: Well, actually, we have Ian. But even his is the lamest possible trollage.

Oh CHRIST!!!1!!! Is there no ending to the Reich's conspiritardation? Jesus H. I mean fucking really.

'the latest rather lame “terrorist” attempt in England'

There was one in Scotland too - Glasgow airport.

Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland make up the UK. The UK and England are two quite different things.

I expect Conservatives to get that wrong so gimme a break :)

ps Cavuto is possibly the weakest tv broadcaster I have ever seen. At least Falafal guy makes me laugh. Oh Bill 'O...

Oh. My. God.

Please read this:

Companies such as Intel Corporation and Microsoft have imported thousands and thousands of Muslim engineers into the USA. They claim a "shortage" of American engineers is the reason.

Using the "logic" of these two male bimbos, might we anticipate that because these companies recruit from foreign countries, we can expect TERRORIST ATTACKS on our own soil? Hell, aren't ENGINEERS more likely to know how to create bombs that actually work?

Ailes needs to start up a new media outlet, called WTF News. I mean, seriously, talk about scraping the dregs of human irrationality.

"And what's with the hair and beard combo?"

Grooming lessons from John Bolton?

Again, our EXTREME RIGHT WING MAIN STREAM MEDIA (ERWMSN) bringing us news we need to here. MSNBC had an 1 1/2 hour chase for a suspected DUI offender on an almost totally empty freeway. I feel soooo safe now.

I still forgot the link. Sorry.

This is so ironic. They say this as if the U.S. wasn't dependent on foreign medical graduates (FMGs). According to Health Affairs, one of four practicing physicians in the U.S. are FMGs. These people are serving, primarily, in shortage areas that it is hard to attract U.S. graduates to.

http://content.healthaffairs.org/cgi/content/full/22/5/241

Where are all the U.S. medical graduates? Perhaps offering specialty services to those who can afford to pay in metropolitan areas. According to researchers at Dartmouth, a high ratio of specialists to primary care providers in a community can drive up health-care costs and iatrogenic (healthcare-induced) harm without improving healthcare outcomes.

http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9A06E2DB173AF9...

Maybe a universal healthcare program that prioritizes preventive and primary care over unproven specialty care could provide the economic pull to put the U.S. medical graduates in the jobs that are hard to fill (shortage areas, primary care) and simultaneously reduce the need for FMGs, the shortage of care for some, and the excess of care for others.

Just a thought.

.

A neocon talking head perports to be an expert on Islam?

Get real. Hitler claimed the same, but about the Jews.

.

In Sicko, Moore interviews a doctor living in a million dollar house (nice furniture, nice cars, etc.) - in London. Yet Fox still claims that Britain's "low pay" for doctors results in the need for imported (terrorist) physicians.

Wouldn't countries that pay doctors more attract a larger group of imports?

Of course it's a ridiculous lie...
...It's Fox, for Christ's sake...
.........Obfuscation and hinderance is the point.........
..................Who benefits?..................

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but the black silohuette used for 4 of the 6 "terrorists" looks very much like that of Jerry Bowyer himself. Look carefully. Methinks there is a liberal in FNC's graphics department, being really subtle. I hope he doesn't get fired for me noticing this.

Thank the effing whatever I don't get that channel. High speed internet and C&L are all I need.

According to his current website biography there are seven kids now and they translate the books of the Bible from the orignial languages as a hobby. He does seem to work for Scaife. Funny company these fundys keep.

I think we should name this weirdo with the wacky hair:

Andy Warwhore!

What... a... loser.

Good Gosh! Are these people serious? Did I see that on a SNL skit?
I'm trying to think this thing through, were they jihadist first or Physicians first?
Under the Faux logic, jihadist are being recruited to become Doctors so they can go to countries with socialized medicine in order to drive gasoline ladened vehicles into Picadilly Square?
So which (according to Faux) is the greater evil; Socialized Medicine, or Radical Islamist?
So a Jihadist could go undetected in the Post Office?
Any current Muslim Physician or Engineer, or Cab Driver, Truck Driver etc....etc..should be considered a latent terrorist?
And the Jihadist Recruiter carries no special consideration?
Ugh! Anyway you turn this argument leads to ridiculous bullshit!

Darth_Romney @ 14:

The fact that idiots like Cavuto even have a presence on TV confirms what my friend from Germany has said for years..."America has became a nation of dimwits, ruled effortlessly by rich theives!"

Why does it seem that people outside this country always have a clearer eyed view of what's going on in this country, and what this country does to other people all around the world?

Cavuto's an idiot. But we should fear muslims. If theyre not terrorists, or terrorist sympathizers, theyre voting to take away our rights.

Very very few muslims have liberal political views. Theyre much more likely to be anti-abortion, anti-gay, for creationsim in schools, for prayer time... for legislating morals. If they didnt disagree with christian fundies about religion, theyd be perfect allies for them.

It's from FascistNooz...what can we expect?!

Every day I feel like I am getting dumber as I drown in right wing stupidity.

I think we are going to see a lot of off-the-wall attacks against universal health care. Thanks to Michael Moore people are going to start wondering why we can't have it here.

This is almost like a trial balloon. If it seems to resonate, it may become a talking point in the counter offensive that the health care robber barons are getting ready to mount.

Robert Says:
Thank You for using the term ROBBER BARONS!
Libertarians are inadvertantly creating a new generation of Robber Barons to replace the democracy that we still control by our votes.

What a crock of shit! Xenophobia, racism and fearmongering at its' best. And the double hit of slamming universal health care. I wonder how much Kaiser is paying him to slag it?

Yeah, he makes people think.. about how to return to sanity.

in one swipe we got rid of foreign doctors. watch out for exploding radishes or lettuce heads. another way to stop illegals from mexico. problem solved.

martin john hmmmmmmmmmmmm i think i know that guy.

Fox News: "If we give everyone health care, the terrorists win!"

Nevermind the fact that the average life-expectancy in the U.S. is significantly lower than in almost any country with universal health care.

Next week: Is there a jihadist doctor in your neighbourhood? Tips to rout them out. When does the 1-800-terrorist hotline begin???

I don't know if anybody said it yet but I'm certain the bleach permeated the skull cap!

That guy looks like a complete ass. I hate to sound petty, but the Sean Hannity-meets-Andy Warhol look means no one will listen to what he's saying, just wondering what the hell happened to him.

just wonder* what happened.

But yeah... forget the barrel, they've already scrapped the bottom out of it; this is floor under the bottom of the barrel. "NHS = terrorism" is too big of a leap even for Fox's audience.

If you bang your head against your keyboard the terrorists have won.

This is a lot of fun, actually. If you want to be a retarded right-winger (my apologies to those who are actually retarded) then just start any sentence with, "If..." and then add, "the terrorists have won."

If I click, "Submit Comment" then the terrorists have won.

Help. I have been abducted by aliens. They are probing me right now.

I must run to my free hospital and tell a doctor. He is pretty rich and lives near me but I don't think he can make a bomb. But the alien probing huuuuuurrrrrrrts! Help Help

Lets try this out Cafeenman #127...

"IF... we don't impeach these criminals and push to reform health care and election laws and ban the K Street set from inside the beltway....THEN THE TERRORIST HAVE WON."

Yeah, that works.

Jerry Bowyer, was that White Entity atop your head dropped on from above with jerky automated tongs?

This is really what needs to be spread here in South Georgia where is there is a disproportionate number of foreign doctors. Increase the distrust the local mouthbreathers already have of "furriners". Great.

On a personal note, I was diagnosed back in '01 with Graves Disease by and Indian doc. He looked at me, listened to the symptoms and diagnosed me immediatly. Confirmed it all with some tests, but when I went back to get a prescription he wasn't there and I had to see one of his partners, some old white guy who misdiagnosed the problem despite lab results to the contrary, and put me on the wrong dosage. He had me on 50mg a day. I lost 20 more pounds in 4 weeks. My Indian doc then put me on the correct dosage: 200 mg. Hmmm, guess who I trusted after that? My ex MIL had this same thing which went undiagnosed for 4 years. She got down to 85 pounds before her newphew figured out what it was.

My urologist is an American and he sure terrorized me -- so
I sort of agree with Fox on this. I'm in terror every time I think
about the last office visit.

Maybe the feeble explosion in the UK was meant to produce
patients rather than casualties?

Wow, eye-opening - so the problem isn't 47 million uninsured people with inadequate health care, it's that terrorist doctors will kill us all if we do insure them.

But what's really disturbing to me and I'll be losing sleep about is that we've already got half the percentage of foreign-born doctors in this country. Since our population is 5 times that of England, that means we already have 2.5 times the number of terrorist-doctors that they do.

I'm packing heat the next time I head in for a physical.

There was a comment about a shortage of the need for doctors in Muslim countries and the huge need in Brittain creating the flow of Muslim MD's to Brittain. Umm...Excuse me, but isn't there a war in Iraq? I think that might require a couple doctors. Garr!!

Number of physicians in the US: 794,893
Number of foreign graduate physicians in the US: 185,234 (from 127 countries)
Percentage of foreign physicians in US training programs: 24%

Don't these figures kinda destroy Cavuto's conclusion in the first place?!

That hair must have dropped at least 4 stories before landing on his head. I wonder if he knows it's there....

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!

.
WTF is up with his head?

His hair is bleached blond but he has a brown
mangy-dog-lookin redneck beard??

Real stylish...
Next step, dye your sack blue !!
