That was the line they touted back then, they used it during Reagan's time and they used it against Clinton.

And it's a total lie.

He basically just said NO UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE.

3. As a Canadian, I agree
Politicians can only interfere if they STOP FUNDING medical care.

And so far, no politician in Canada has dared.

We love our health care.

5. Mccain would rather
have a for profit corporation tell people what kind of medical care they can get than a system that exists to help people

6. What a puking lie - we already have bureaucrats between us and our doctors
not to mention the desire on the part of McSame and Cruella to outlaw my right to decide what's best for my body.
