Yeah, the developed nations of the world (green) have universal healthcare. We'll join them eventually. Probably. It may be after half of Africa and all of South America is green, but our day'll come.

Other than Russia, we've been subsidizing the defense for all those nations and they still are in fiscal crisis.

What crisis? 80% of Europe has a lower debt-to-gdp ration than the U.S. Look at your chart..from the bottom (Greece) come up 4 spots and insert the United States at 104%. heh

And Western European countries actually increased their military spending last year. They've got a better handle on bullets vs band-aids than we do, obviously.

And even if our NATO partners doubled their military spending (like Germany did last year), do you seriously think republicans would cut our own military budget? Na ga da. No aweigh, Jose.

"80% of Europe has a lower debt-to-gdp ration than the U.S."

Not before 2009....

Yes. Not before The Great Recession.

Wait wait wait... GREENLAND has single payer health care? Who knew?

Greenland is denmark

So the last few days the WH channel has shifted from their "no collusion proof offered" stance. Hannity, Hume. Krauthammer, Jarrett etc now are claiming collusion with russians isn't a crime as far as they can tell. Naturally the assumption is that a shoe is about to drop in the investigation and the "no proof" line will no longer cut it.

So last night the WH puts out a strong warning to Assad about a supposed plan of his to use gas again on his people. Strangely no specifics are given, and the military and intelligence don't seem to know what's up. A feint, maybe? Something to push the bad press about Russia and the health bill aside?

at the same time, 3 journalist resigned at CNN for running an unverified single source story linking Trump to Russia after CNN had to retract

"There's something rotten in Greenland" just doesn't have the same ring to it...

Reporters at Fox News usually "resigned" when they stopped accepting Roger Ailes's sexual advances...

We are fighting a proxy war with Isis against Russia. Youd think that would be the russia news aomeone would cover

I feel bad for tick. I mean CNN feeding him news, not because it's true, but because they know it's what he craves to hear. Every morning, he is told, there are new possibilities of a Trump impeachment just to realize later just another ruse. CNN shouldn't exploit him like that.

Megyn Kelly should have reconsidered given her ratings on NBC

John Bonifield, a producer in CNN's medical unit. Like every other person on the planet, he hasn't seen actual proof of trump people colluding with Russians yet. Yawn.

Just knowing that amateur sleuth OKeefe is a paid shill for Trump gives me satisfaction enough, sardis.

Yeah, CNN axes 3 journalists who ran an unverified story about a Trump associate. Whereas Fox News gave Judge Napolitano a 2 week vacation for his lie about British intelligence wiretapping Trump.

Fox News.. "Fair & Balanced, and Always Retracting". Except now they've dropped that Fair & Balanced canard.

I don't get my news from CNN or Fox

I don't either. TV news is always light on facts and perspective and for those with reading comprehension shortcomings

What are you saying?
