Sick of CNN

I should have known it the minute Blitzer said the report was coming from Havana. Nothing good, except exiles and maybe cigars, comes from there. Gee, according to the reporter Moore is right. Everyone gets free health care for a fraction of the cost in the United States. Yeah, there are two tiers. Luis Moro on Youtube gets a mention in the context of a mad lunatic, and while conditions for ordinary Cubans are not those that Americans would tolerate....
The subtext is that, heck, it's a third world country, so of course it's okay for Cubans to have this rudimentary a health care. God forbid anyone in the MSM should research what kind of health care Cuba had prerevolution. As to the point of the report- The United States could save just as much money if it had diagnostic technology from the 40's, eliminated CT scans, PET scans, and, oh yeah, medications.

Don't these people realized how remarkably bigoted they are. Time to go email them, yet again. This time I can't decide between disingenuous or cynical. Maybe I'll use both. I encourage everyone to challenge them, to discuss the misconceptions with the people they know. There are over a million of us, a million little ambassadors. I like that.

What did you expect from Wolf, et al, at CNN? Gotta agree with lil bro' on this one. His acronym for CNN is not too far off base. Picture this: the Blitzmeister in the throes of orgasmic rapture as an all too naked Hilary reads an excerpt from her opus "It Takes a Village", the entire thing being filmed by a balls/ass naked Michael Moore standing at the foot of the bed in some hot sheets motel, sporting a backward Cubs hat and sweating like Michael Jackson attending a party for 8 year olds at your local Chucky Cheese. This is what I see when I pause for a minute as I surf between ballgames and get the world perspective 'from the left' on CNN. I despise myself for even caring to see what these talking 'empty heads' have to say.
