The GOP and the man-god Trump.

Prices are up big time here too. Being blamed on Brexit+Covid induced shortage of HGV drivers.

Ours is a direct result of Neo-liberal over spending. They first lied when they denied inflation was happening. Then they lied when they claimed it was just a very temporary blip.

The arch Christo-wimp in action:

Former vice president Mike Pence said media reporting on the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection is meant to “demean” supporters of former president Donald Trump, some of whom stormed the Capitol that day shouting, “Hang Mike Pence!”

In an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News on Monday night, Pence sought to explain media coverage of the Jan. 6 riot in which he was hurriedly evacuated from the Senate chamber and taken to a secure location amid threats to his life.

“I know the media wants to distract from the Biden administration’s failed agenda by focusing on one day in January,” Pence told Hannity. “They want to use that one day to try and demean the character and intentions of 74 million Americans who believed we could be strong again and prosperous again and supported our administration in 2016 and 2020.”

Poor little insurrectionists are getting a bad press!

So, the lying scumbag democrats can pull stuff like "a Capitol Police Officer was bludgeoned to death with a fire extinguisher", knowing full well it's a lie, and you think Pence is a wimp because he's not the least bit concerned about the nonsense people were yelling?

Not the sky, insurance premiums, not falling but rising. In time you won’t get any insurance at all.

Maybe the government can give us free property insurance. After all, Obamacare has done wonders for our healthcare industry.

Okay, bad example.

Health is a National asset. A healthy population, well fed, well housed, well informed, happy and content, is a productive and peaceful population. Those are a few things you can improve on; let’s get to it.

I know you’re tempted, but try not to give Trump another go in 2024.

I have heard that a fire extinguisher was used against police officers, and when empty, it was thrown at them. I have not heard the ‘bludgeoned to death’ claim repeated since about the date in question. It probably circulates among right wing propaganda outlets as they attempt to downplay the seriousness of the attack, and their role in it.

The healthcare industry is, in general, not about promoting health but about trying to make sick people better, or at least less sick. A lot of people really don't take care of themselves and only visit a doctor when something is catastrophically wrong. Staying healthy is a personal choice -- eating healthy, exercising, avoiding vices like sugar, cigarettes, and excessive consumption of alcohol -- and no amount of government spending is going cause people to make that decision.

You don't know squat.

It was still being touted in the impeachment documents - perhaps if you widened your reading beyond smut trash leftist pinko commie hate rags, you'd learn a thing or two.

Your position was, as I remember it; never mind that Trump is the Devil, we get to pack the courts with Federalist Soc. picks.

… setting up a fight between a liberal population and a conservative judiciary.

Absolutely. There is no more hypocritical stance than to accuse some other group if lying while at the same time trying to justify or downplay what happened on Jan 6. Supporting in any way what came to us through Trump on Jan 6 is, from my perspective, to spit in the face of everything this country was founded on and to join with those seeking its demise.

Huh. It's almost like Mikey doesn't really believe Buffalo Man and his Mighty Rampaging Horde -- of undercover FBI thugs -- were there to drag him out and kill him. Huh.

Anyway, yeah, I'd be happy to cast another vote for the Bad Orange Man. I'd choose him above anyone else currently on the scene, with the possible exception of DeSantis.

Here in the UK, the greatly beloved NHS does not try to sell you stuff but are big on age related screening of the whole population for common health problems. For example, firstfloor has recently been checked for bowel cancer and aortic aneurysm. We all pay National Insurance of course, but there is no dirty profit motive at work, only the benefits arising from the system finding health problems at an early stage. The punters usually play along and go for check-ups when invited.
