Lounge of Tomorrow - The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

This would be my serious question...
What, pray tell, is the gay/lesbian agenda? Can you name the points, in order? Do you know who drew up the original document? Is it available as a pamphlet or online? Are there meetings I may attend to learn more?

I certainly was not attempting to be offensive or controversial in the least and apologize if you took offense at my wording. I suppose it would have been better stated to ask if a gay man opposes a gay related social issue supported by most of gay men does that mean he is self loathing?

Even Ken Starr is saying Liz Cheney's attack on DOJ lawyer's defense of terror suspects is "shameful".

Best reason so far to pass health care reform!!

Oh please oh please oh please.

Hey Rush, umm, you realize Costa Rica has tax-payer supported universal health care, right? Right? As a matter of fact, I dare you to find a country in which you'd be willing to live that DOESN'T have some form of socialized health care.

There are plenty of countries without universal healthcare that he can choose from.... in Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East.... I'm sure he'll be welcomed with open arms there... :evil:

I believe he wasn't saying he would move there, but that he'd go there for health care. I surmise this because of the connection to Cuba and how the same clip had him talking about how Cuba is going to require health insurance for visitors, and how he said he would never go there.

I found this info very quickly, as well as many other links (it would seem as if private medical options in Costa Rica attract many foreigners) -

Note: Before the 2008 ratification of CAFTA (the Central American Free Trade Agreement), Costa Rica operated under a government-owned monopoly insurance system. In 2009, international insurance providers began to offer health insurance within Costa Rica.

Costa Rica’s private hospitals and clinics offer high-quality medical care at a tiny fraction of its U.S. equivalent cost. In fact, due to Costa Rica’s beautiful surroundings, medical reputation and very lost costs, the country is rapidly becoming a prime destination for medical tourism.

That wasn't off of Fox....that was off of a google search of "costa rica health care" and was one of many links that described the health care options in Costa Rica.

Contextually, he was saying he will leave the country to get his healthcare.

That is the part that I was talking about. Listen to the video. He wasn't talking about leaving to get health care. :rolleyes:
