    U.S. life expectancy is the lowest among major industrialized democracies, not to mention lower than in Cuba, but U.S. life expectancy for people who live long enough to hit age 65 is actually quite good. I wonder why that is, Mitt?

    Ramen's another of those "both parties are EXACTLY the same and I'm a unique snowflake who isn't voting for either candidate...except that I'll panic and vote Romney at the last minute" Conservatarians. :yes:

    And Ramen's idea of a substantive argument is to fart in your general direction.

    I've never understood why he's liked as a poster. He's Tasvir with more arms.

    You can use that argument of yours as many times as you want to console yourself that you're just another witless cog in the two party machine, but it still won't be true. :)

    No, no one has died from not having health insurance. Lack of health insurance presents no serious symptoms. Lack of health insurance has no transmission vectors. Lack of health insurance presents no indicators pre- or post-mortem. "Lackahealthinsuransitis" is the least impressive disease Leftists ever made up as an excuse to take over another part of everybody's life.

    Your panic voting habits are immaterial to me except as a source of amusement.

    C'mon, everybody to the right of Cindy Sheehan is tasvir in your eyes. If typing was akin to talking, mindless zombie drool would be flowing from your fingertips.

    Does your glass menagerie collection tend to start having parties while you stare at it? I ask because apparently your brain is creating fantasies for your entertainment while you slowly descend into dementia. :(

    I'm more irate at your posting style, not the link. Even if the source wasn't a Daily Mail/WND/Liet's Lemon Party link, what Romney says is immaterial as I'm not voting for him anyway. :shrug:

    Brilliant comeback there, skin. I note you've neither refuted the OP nor stated unequivocally that you won't panic and vote for Romney. Keep up the good work!

    Ramen may have more arms than Tasvir, but apparently he doesn't have more functional arms. The poor boy has only withered sticks attached to his shoulders, sticks that are too weak to click a link. Stop mocking him for it.

    Sorry, I'm not one of your figments as I haven't anything to prove to you. If you want to be a discussion moderator, I hear they're looking for a replacement of Jim Lehrer.

    Your concession is noted. Now please expend a few more posts pretending Romney didn't say what he said. :techman:

    It's the new "B. Hussein Obama." Except not racist.

    Establish why a vote for Romney must necessarily proceed from panic.

    So according to the Lefty playbook, calling Obama by his legal name is "racist", while bastardizing Romney's name in a demeaning manner is A-okay.

    Got it! :techman:

    And of course, for every person who does get the healthcare they need to survive without money or insurance, you have a socialized universal healthcare system in place. Just the least effective and most expensive system there is.

    However, by implying that Willard is like a child in his choice of handwear it is biased against children.

    Mittens is a tough guy. He's got hair like hardened steel. He'll be fine.

    You, I'm not so sure about.

    Already had that round robin with him before. Just accept the fact that liberals are hypocrites and move on. It's impossible to talk common sense with an ass.

    45,000 people disagree!

    Well, they would. Except they're dead because "going to the ER" didn't actually treat whatever illness they had.

    Or they did go to the ER, and died because someone who had the flu and no health insurance did and they couldn't be seen.

    But whatever. They're probably illegal Mexicans anyway, right, visionrazer?

    In the world at large, it doesn't. On I'mVotingforGaryJohnsonforge, it does.
