Once again, Fox News showcases the thing it does best: combining fear-mongering with liberal bashing. Of course it's all posed as a hypothetical situation (Cavuto: "...without judging...this is only a possibility"), but it's still an impressive demonstration of xenophobia.

- Universal Healthcare spikes the demand for new doctors.
- some of these new doctors are likely to be muslims.
- muslim doctors = OMG terrorism!
- As Al-Queda fills these new doctor positions with sleeper-agents.
- National healthcare is a large bureaucracy, while private healthcare is not.
- The bureaucracy allows Al-Queda agents to "become invisible", and therefore a serious terrorist threat.

Impeccable logic. ;)

That's one of the stupidest things i've ever heard, but then again...it's FOX, nothing from them surprises me anymore.

Still....one can only wonder who coordinated the recent terrorist screwups in Britain, and how long have they been preparing for this? It's obvious that this wasn't planned overnight, so we may have entered a new phase of terrorism.

OMG, my doctor has a German name, he must be a Nazi...

Clearly, you haven't seen Doctor Strangelove. Or should I say: Merkwurdigliebe. (-dum- -dum- -dum-) ;)

Now you're just trying to scare me...

Dreamer128 07-09-2007 09:18 AM

.. or encourage you to see the movie. It's quite good. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm with Dreamer on this. See Doctor Strangelove. (...We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when, but I know we'll meet again some sunny day...)

robertthebard 07-09-2007 07:18 PM

OH no, Stalker Nazi Doctor...

Ah, Dr. Strangelove, or How I learned to Stop Worrying And LO-ove the Bomb. Great movie, worth a rent.

Hey, Fox gave us "The shout factor". That's one circus you must watch.
