6. Profit...the true God of America
People's lives are being destroyed all so some greedy corporate pigs can make enough money to buy another yacht, airplane or mansion. Meanwhile, the average people of America suffer.

Greed is the true God of America.

9. Oh, how I wish you lived in red state hell with me so you could help
counter their denials that there aren't any health care crises in the US (until it happens to them).

10. Forward a copy of their medical bills to the RNC and the Tea Party
with a reminder to the RNC that the party owes America over $1 trillion that were defrauded the American people to fund the Iraqi invasion and occupation. We were promised this money would be returned through sales of Iraqi oil - that has not happened. You can suggest the party start paying the American people back by making a donation to clear the medical bills of this family and allow them to keep their home.

Now THAT would be a patriotic thing to do.

11. Welcome to DU!
I didn't really need to hear about your boner, but then, I also could do without all those viagra and levitra commercials.

13. well, thank you, but I don't actually have one...
But I was seriously blown away when yesterday, while I was watching CNN (bad idea in the first place) every other commercial, really, every other commercial was either a nasal spray for allergies or a male enhancement product? It is sooooooooo frickin' obvious where the bleeding is with healthcare? And the big irony here is that while I was finding out the 10 different ways I could get ( enhanced :) ), I was watching CNN cover the blind- subsidised- angry protesters at these town hall meetings? America is truly pathogical.
