This is classic liberalism. Just the other day you told us how wealthy you were "Top 7%" and now you want joe six pack with three kids to pay for your hip replacement surgery! Incredible how liberals think. Here's a crazy thought that probably wouldn't occur to you otherwise. Why don't you pay for your own surgery via your own medical insurance, or out of your own pocket?

I question your patriotism, because you appear to want to turn America into a new Soviet Socialist Republic. In other words, you and your hero Chomsky would prefer communism and anarchy over the Constitution. BTW, as a self-professed wealthy person, you aren't helping the poor by making them pay for your health care.

Millions of old people like me can now get hip replacements because of medicare rather than having to live a life being crippled.

JORDAN WARGAMES: 4,500 U.S. TROOPS NEAR SYRIAN BORDERPatriot batteries, F-16s launch military exercise 'Eager Lion'Published: 16 hours ago
(RT) Multinational military exercise ‘Eager Lion’ has been launched in Jordan amid condemnation from neighboring Syria and its ally Russia. The US brings Patriot missile batteries to the Syrian border, which could remain deployed afterwards.

The exercises will last for 12 days, bringing together about 8,000 personnel from 19 countries, mostly Arabic, but also including the US and Europe. The maneuvers will also involve some 3,000 Jordanian and 500 British troops.

‘Eager Lion’ – which is being conducted only 120km from the Jordan-Syria border – is aimed at training personnel for the possibility of the Syrian civil war spilling into neighboring countries.

How can you reconcile "commitment to helping our fellow man or woman" and wanting to "help those less fortunate than us" with wanting to fleece your fellow man out of their pitiful little paychecks?

Washing clothes now and then off to a few adventures before Friday night poker where we fleece the amateurs and drunks when they get their weekly pay checks.

Do you know how ridiculous it sounds to say you feel so sorry for the poor people in Renton when we know you actually intend to exploit those poor people by taking their paychecks?

I went into the Walmart in Renton and the poverty and illiteracy was pervasive. Walmart getting rich exploiting the poor. It was so horrible. They hire tons of marginally mentally retared and then pay them a pittance. I felt so sorry for more than half the people I saw in there.

>> I have many friends who have had hip replacements they could not have had without medicare.

If we didn't have Medicare, hip replacements would be affordable by practically everyone in society -- at least as many as can now afford to pay what Medicare doesn't pay of it.

The reason health care costs are so high today is government tinkering with the system, and most notably, because of Medicare and Medicaid.

You won't address this point, however -- because you know deep down that the serious cost spiral for health care began in 1965.

Denmark Refuses to Deport Al Qaeda Soldier Who Raped 10-Year-Old Because He is “Well Integrated”
June 19, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield 5 Comments

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-193784" alt="somalier_16_danmark" src="http://frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/somalier_16_danmark-273x350.jpg" width="273" height="350" />

You wouldn’t want to deport an Al Qaeda serial rapist. Just think of all the cultural enrichment he can offer Denmark. (via Religion of Peace)

The rape of the 10-year-old girl triggered strong feelings in the local community. It occurred on Saturday November, 19, 2011 in a wooded area in ‘Lyngens Kvarter’ in Gullestrup just outside Herning.

The perpetrator forced the two little girls to follow him. The youngest girl managed to escape, but he was able to rape the 10-year-old.

Next time, I’m sure he’ll do better. Now that Mohammed has been given a second chance to follow in the footsteps of his prophet by sexually abusing little girls.

‘The Danish justice system is a joke’. Those are the words of one of the victims of the Somali rapist in the ‘Gullestrup case’. Yesterday he received assurances from the High Court that he will not be deported.

On Monday the High Court in Viborg chose to moderate the punishment for the 18-year-old Ahmed Omar Mohamed, who last year was sentenced in the District Court to six years in prison and issued with a deportation order for raping a 10-year-old girl at a playground in Gullestrup in 2011. In addition to this he was sentenced for the attempted rape of the girl’s 9-year-old girlfriend, and for the attempted rape of a 17-year-old girl which occurred the same year.

Desirée Klein, who was 17 when the offender tried to rape her, one month before he carried out the Gullestrup rape, is flabbergasted.

“The Danish justice system is a joke. People that I discuss this matter with are shocked that he hasn’t been deported. It is traumatic and very unfair to think about that he might be out walking the streets within three years. I’m especially thinking about the girls in this case; they may have to live in the same city as him,” says Desirée Klein.

She was accosted by the then 16-year-old offender at the town square in Herning after a night out in October 2011. At knifepoint he ordered her to follow him into a stairwell and sexually violated her. Today she suffers from post-traumatic stress. The otherwise well-functioning girl has still not managed to complete her education.

“I think it’s unreasonable that he is given a second chance by Denmark.”

The offender’s defense attorney argued in the High Court that the offender should be allowed to remain in Denmark, because he has only attended Danish schools is well-integrated and that he has received his high school graduation diploma in prison. And on Monday the judge decided to listen to this argument.

Now that he has his High School diploma, he is clearly no longer a threat.

During the court case it was revealed that the perpetrator was affiliated with an al-Qaeda group as a child soldier.

Meanwhile the European left is radicalizing the natives.

I’m Karina Klein, I am the mother of D. You know her, the 18-year-old, he tried to rape her inside Herning, she exclaims suddenly. She obviously has something to say for her eyes are alight with fury.

“I have such a deep hatred for him, so you think it’s a lie. It is indeed pure hatred, and if only I could be allowed to be alone with him so … she says and disconnects herself from the threat.

“This case has changed everything – even for me. I used to not hang out with the Danish Defence League – now I do. And it’s actually me who invited them up here after the sentencing. They are a great support, she says.
