available and am brace yourselves progressives, Michelle Bachman is recruiting the Right to fight medicare! Any idea how this will pan out, when she said 'come armed' some idiots will take that as coming with guns. Gawd, this current President has his work cut out for him. I believe in a superior being and I hope President Obama and his family are safe. Seems to me like a lot of people in the US have gone wild!

2. I was hoping for the Public Option but was asking if Single Payer
is viable! The system in the US is very different from here in Canada! Just asking, please don't be snarky!

3. I wasn't being snarky...just trying to understand what you were asking
I haven't been able to watch debate today, so from my point of view, there might have been discussion of medicare extension for all (which is what I'd love to see).

Believe me, as an American, I would say that we have NOTHING to be snarky about, vis-a-vis health care.... The situation is beyond pathetic, actually.

4. My dear neighbor, I want the same health care for you that we have, can
you imagine our chagrin with the Campbell govt. wanted someone from the US to come here and revamp our medicare? Most of us objected, but Campbell is a weasel and we have no viable opposition! The ass will go again and get drunk in Hawaii and will still get elected again.

5. How many DUers can you adopt?
LOL

Don't let these asses get a firm hold in Canada--please. At least when I can see some sanity to the north, I can retain some optimism.

6. You know, if it were that simple, I'd offer to marry one of you if you
truely wanted to come to Canada. But it is a whole new ball game here in Canada. My daughter got married to an American and they had to submit photos, emails, telephone records that it was not a marriage of convenience. And we are thinking, why would an American in a good IT job want to come to Canada.
