Britons pour love on 'evil' healthcare system
I bet Fox News is banging themselves in the head for being an idiot when that opposition MP they interviewed who claim the NHS "is Evil" got slam by his own party because they support the NHS. Hopefully, with this news & the support of the British Prime Minister about the NHS benefits, Americans will realize that an NHS type health care system in the US is not an evil threat but Godsent for their health, lives & financial situations. These ignorant americans should realize that President Obama is not creating a Death panel, they already exist & their call your insurance company since they won't pay for your medical treatment cause you don't have the money & they don't want to spend that money.

John Yettaw's wife made a rather humorous (in a sad way) remark in response to the news of his release:

But seriously, the lady is not the only voice the West should listen to. The minority groups within Burma don't look up to her as a leader. They want their representatives at the table, and they are holding off the junta in those remote areas where people seldom talk about. She's one voice, but not the only one. The Karen, Kachin, and other minorities need attention too.

How the hell would this Yettaw guy even be there? Myanmar's government is doing things and the world does not have the balls to give it the cold treatment.
The ASEAN is srsly acting like it's better broken up. They can't even eject, or suspend Myanmar. That hell-hole gives us all a bad name and lessens our cred. Savages do not have civilized friends. When democracy is installed, maybe they'll be civilized and we'll accept them back with open arms. |

Myanmar supplies quite a bit of stuff to Thailand and China, either legally, or illegally. The place is a rich one. Like Africa, it is mismanaged, and how...
The junta is even more stubborn than N.Korea. Sanctions? No reaction. Barrage of words? No harm done. What can you do?

Rich, but their government is just a bunch of savage thugs. There's a difference between a government and a "government" of thugs.. The Burmese people's situation is like having a large bank account and having no say in how to manage it.

And to what costs? The US has a big hole in its wallet, and the PRC is flexing itself in the Security Council.
Besides, bombings are overrated. Remember Rolling Thunder? Asean is still too young. Her member nations are still struggling with ideas which Europe has more or less grasped in the 20th century.

Okay, ground invasion. Just like in Iraq, it worked, but we'll pull out and not do the rebuilding. They're "rich" to fund it on their own. I'm sure they'll even be thankful for introducing democracy by offing the generals.
