"Once again you are adamantly holding onto a difference that means nothing." Tench, what you did was move the goal posts.

Message 23826713 I remember when I was a kid listening to shortwave radio. There was the "North American Service" of Radio Moscow that would come on at night with American music. I don't remember what was going on in the US at the time, but the commentators would take every opportunity to mention how great the Soviet Union was. No riots, workers were happy and never go on strike, free health care, etc. I'm sure the American lefties of that period are no different than the "America sucks" internet lefties of today.

>Once again you are adamantly holding onto a difference that means nothing. It means so much! If I point out, that say, Intel makes faster processors than AMD because they do (I think, I'm not keeping up), am I bragging about Intel? No. There is a huge difference between pointing out a fact and bragging about it. A huge difference. It means something. >I hear China doesn't have a problem with rampant lawsuits like America does. Therefore there might be something to tort reform. 1. America doesn't have a problem with rampant lawsuits. 2. Not the same thing at all... Cuba is just one of many countries with a socialized medical insurance system; the point of using it is just that it's extreme. >See how easy this lib s--t is? Only in your head, man... -Z
