well i was lazy and jumped from page 1 to last, but looks like it was quite colorful and i'm terribly sorry i'm missed it. i'd like to respond to the ops first one there in saying that i was quite taken back by that response from the crowd. that was something almost premonition like of a different world that i would certainly move the hell out of. i would hope civilized people would have some decorum in a nationally televised affair that could have such giant implications for the future of our republic.
as far as RP's response to it, i believe personal reponsibility is common sense if you want to be successful in anything. i'm sure 90 something % of our people believe that. i also understand that leaving someone to die because he or his family(most who work there butts off)dosen't have or cant afford adequate healthcare, is a fundamental stab in the back to our national pride, morality, and what (i believe) it means to be American. Funny, my almost 70 year old father agrees with this notion, and i would get a front row seat to someone calling him a "socialist".
