Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


  • April 1986: Muslim extremists (backed by Libya) bombed a discotheque frequented by U.S. servicemen in West Berlin, injuring hundreds and killing two, including a U.S. soldier.

  • December 1988: Muslim extremists (backed by Libya) bombed Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, killing all 259 on board and 11 on the ground.

    • (Then came an amazing, historic pause in Muslim extremists' relentless war on America after Ronald Reagan won the Cold War by doing the opposite of everything recommended by Democrats, depriving Islamic terrorists of their Soviet sponsors. This confuses liberals because they don't understand the concept of terror sponsors, whether it's the Soviet Union or Iraq.)

  • February 1993: Muslim extremists (al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya, possibly with involvement of friendly rival al-Qaida) set off a bomb in the basement of the World Trade Center, killing six and wounding more than 1,000.

  • Spring 1993: Muslim extremists (al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya, the Sudanese Islamic Front and at least one member of Hamas) plot to blow up the Lincoln and Holland tunnels, the U.N. complex, and the FBI's lower Manhattan headquarters.

  • November 1995: Muslim extremists (possibly Iranian "Party of God") explode a car bomb at U.S. military headquarters in Saudi Arabia, killing five U.S. military servicemen.

  • June 1996: Muslim extremists (13 Saudis and a Lebanese member of Hezbollah, probably with involvement of al-Qaida) explode a truck bomb outside the Khobar Towers military complex, killing 19 American servicemen and injuring hundreds.

  • August 1998: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) explode truck bombs at U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing 224 and injuring thousands.

  • October 2000: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) blow up the U.S. Navy destroyer USS Cole, killing 17 U.S. sailors.

  • Sept. 11, 2001: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) hijack commercial aircraft and fly planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 Americans.

    • America's war with Islamic fanaticism didn't start on 9/11, but it's going to end with 9/11 -- as long as Americans aren't foolish enough ever to put a Democrat in the White House.

    Cutter Bench - Spot On
    I now recall you mentioning in a post that DJWW was probably a team/group. Once you made that observation it was obvious to me also that DJWW wasn't a genuine hack like the rest of us. In addition to the irregularities you note DJWW's postings read as a collection of input/findings by committee, not a continuum from a single author. When I finally got DJWW to respond to a challenge the reply was double speak with “nonexistent” supporting evidence – a bogus reference to an actual online CNN article. I then envisioned a bunch of bright, college-aged activists employing divide and conquer and googling. The ring-leader probably being some disenfranchised, middle-aged or older, self-loathing liberal (think typical college professor!!)

    Another red flag (for JDWW and others) is when the posting is premised with personal credentials, i.e. I’m a 5th grade teacher …, I’m a Presbyterian Minister … etc. When that M.O. is employed it’s given that somebody is starting with a lie and trying to fit logic and creditability around the lie.

    Reaganite: Why Word Jest Dissimulations?

    On July 23rd I informed WWJD that I would no longer dialogue with them. This was after not receiving a response to my repeated inquiries, as to their intended use and interpretation of the expression WWJD. By way of response, WWJD's closing statement; after chiding me, castigating Sean Hannity and plugging McNeil/Lehrer was, "Choose it to stand for anything you want."

    I did.
