    You made a statement, I proved it wrong. Still skirting (no pun
    intended).
    Not sure what your point is, but, whatever.

    course).

    Do you get to speak for rthe Jeep+willys newsgroup?
    You have not yet demonstrated that no one who uses that newsgroup
    responds here, or that no one there wants the thread to continue.

    The word is "too", not "to".
    Why do *you* get to determine when "too long" is?

  11. I have a friend who went to the Doctor for a routine physical. The Doctor
    did not like whaat he saw on the treadmill test and checked him into the
    hospital, where he had a balloon angioplasty that same afternoon. How long
    would he have waited "on the list" in Canada for the same treatment,
    considering he was outwardly healthy and active. Would he have lived that
    long? How could he have been sure?
    I know if I need medical treatment I can get it, NOW, now later. To me, that
    is important. I really don't care how Canada does it, if you're happy great.
    I'm just against Lloyd and his cronies trying to change ours, which would
    stifle it, and lower the quaility of care for everyone, including Canadians.

    Depends on how you look at it.
    The government is made up of 'the people'.
    Those people's lives are, at least in part, shaped by their religion.
    To expect their government to be completely divorced from that
    religion (whatever religion it is, or even the combination of
    religions it is here) is being unrealistic. It's asking the people to
    ignore what they believe in.

    It is a goal of our government, at this time, to attempt to divorce
    itself from all religion. Is that good?
    How can we expect our government to come up with laws that have no
    base? No anchor at all? How can we possibly expect to base our laws on
    the human experience, and then expect to deny a large part of that
    experience?

    I'm not proposing a theocracy, but I do think that trying to deny all
    religious beliefs is simply impossible, and, as such, should be
    recognized.

  13. No more than your's is of the US. I'm happy with ours, you're happy with
    your's. Now we just need to shut Lloyd up and we can all die happy.

  14. I'm glad I don't have to wait six months for treatment of a condition that
    worsens with time.

    I've been saying just that that.
    Let's not confuse some Catholic churches with the whole of religious
    society.
    Ok, I have a problem with unreferrenced pronouns.
    What is the "it" here?
    Marriage? Gay marriage? The idea of gay marriage?
    The rankling?

    I think that's already covered.
    Such unions are called 'corporations'. :)

    Non sequitor.
    Try going into one and find out.
    Are you *really* this dumb?
    It's discrimination, based on age.
    Or do you think differently?

    Oh yeah? Read it and weap:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Lesbian_and_Gay_Association
    Here's another good one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAMBLA

    A matter of public record - part of the Congressional record, no doubt.
    You wanna dispute that?

    I suppose you'll say that the Wikipedia is run by a right wing
    organization. Notice how many times on the article it says that right
    wing groups and politicians opposed the goings on of the gay community
    in the situation - not once does it mention liberals as being
    particularly outspoken about the UN's endorsement of such groups (and
    the gay rights orgs. only acted when they saw that the publicity was
    damaging their other "more palatable" causes).

    How about a man and his dog - why shouldn't they be allowed to get
    married?
