I'll bet you appreciate Part A. Can you imagine what private insurance would cost you for that. I have a supplement for my Part B which I pay for out of my pocket too.

Whenever these chain emails arrive, you can bet it is bogus. Never have seen one that is true. They are started by special interests to deceive people. Sadly, they seem to work.

Bangee, we will always be best buds. :)

Ivan, I greatly admire your photography however to import such garbage as you posted here from your former homeland is beyond me. Also I think in the case of the Aussie, he just stated his opinion in a nicely manner it is totally unnecessary to attack him for that.

You can doubt anything you want.Australians have spoken, conservatives are in,liberals are out.Period.

Blacks2 may I ask what garbage are you talking about?
If you talk about the photomontage.... is not that hypocritical of you to defend BunkoT`s right to express his opinion and to deny me the same? True, the photomontage may overstate the current state of things a bit but since 2008 the US has been on the steady decline everywhere you look.If Obama did not get cold feet at the last minute before stupidly attacking Syria the photomontage could even be the sad reality today.
You think BunkoT "stated his opinion in a nicely manner".Are you sure you did read it? If you did you were supposed to notice nice words like "arrogant little pig","bitching",etc. BunkoT is not exacly known for his diplomatic comments and nice manners.
I believe if BunkoT feels attacked by me he is a grownup who can defend himself and you should stay out of this.

When did Obama attack Syria ? I think you are confusing him with Bush who attacked Iraq.

KW Conch Loc: USA

Nothing to do with the Aussie health care system. I don't think that will change.

When you are not smart enough to put two and two together let me explain:perhaps I did not formulate the sentence well but when somebody "gets cold feet" before doing something it means he/she did not proceed with the intended deed.So Obama,the Nobel peace prize winner,was threatening to attack Syria while most of the americans (including the congress) opposed the totally stupid idea helping out so called "rebels" which are pursuing an antiamerican agenda.Obama`s goal was to put Muslim Brotherhood in power in Syria (like he helped to do in Egypt and Libya).He painted himself in a corner with his big mouth and muslim "educated" brain,fortunately when UK and the UN failed to support the foolish idea which could possible lead to military confrontation with Russia and China he gave up.That is when the key words "getting cold feet" come to play,no military action took place.And Putin put him to shame as a statesman.
When you bring up Bush and Irag,it is interesting to note that when S.Hussein used chemical weapons on Kurds and Bush was talking about military action against Irag Obama and all Democrats were against it.As I said before they are all hypocrites.

I do not know who made you the speaker for the conservative Australian government,the fact is Aussies got fed up with liberals.What the Aussie conservatives do is their agenda and what you think makes absolutely no difference.

KW Conch Loc: USA

Right and you don't speak for them either. We'll see if their universal health care is repealed. Their conservatives don't appear to be as radical as ours.

KW Conch Loc: USA

You show your ignorance of facts when you have to constantly attack and resort to name calling when you are proven wrong.
Obama achieved his objective without firing a shot.
The Democrats supported Bush's attack on Iraq when he supplied bogus "yellowcake" information to the
UN. He let the Taliban and bin Laden escape from Afghanistan when he turned his attention to Iraq.
Concerning the Arab Spring which swept the middle east, Egypt had a free election and voted in the Muslim Brotherhood. Isn't that what we want ? Free elections. Since then the Muslim Brotherhood has been deposed. In Libya, we helped to depose the despot Khadaffi. Libya is now an ally and not run by the Brotherhood. You need to get your facts straight.
Bush spent trillions in Iraq. What did it accomplish except 4400 US dead and thousands more wounded ? Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi dead and wounded. Now Iraq and Iran are friends instead of mortal enemies. You should take off your blinders and look at the facts instead of using blind hatred of the president.

I definitely do not speak for the Australian government or for anybody else but myself.All I said was the Aussies kicked out liberals,that is all.
BTW as a widerness guide I had a chance to talk to a couple of thousands of Aussies and none of them really liked their socialized healthcare.
Not to mention the taxes,real estate prices and so on.

As for Syria Obama became the laughing stock of the world.
His objective was to punish Assad for using sarin,it did not happen.Assad would have to be total moron to use chemical weapons,he would "gain" only negative response.
The only party gaining anything from the use of sarin were the "rebels".We have been lied about the situation in Syria from the day one,for two years we have been told Assad is about to lose the civil war and the rebels are just about to win.BTW are you aware the US has three times as big arsenal of chemical weapons as Assad?
If we did not accomplish anything in Irag how much did Obama accomplish in Afghanistan? Do not try to answer this question,everybody knows it.
The rest of your comment was debated here "ad nauseam" (I am learning something from you). :lol:
While it is amusing to talk to you I have other things to do so there will not be other responses from me.Thanks and have a good life.

KW Conch Loc: USA

I have to remind you that Obama did not invade Afghanistan. However, he is ending it. Twelve years of war is enough. We should have learned that from what happened to the Russians when they invaded. If you wish not to respond, that is OK with me.
