Olympics Kick Off With Tribute to Socialized Medicine

posted on July 28, 2012 by Tad Cronn

God bless the Brits. Theirs was the country that gave birth to the United States.

Of course, the British did that chiefly through gross abuse and neglect of the colonists’ needs and wants.

Which makes it doubly laughable to see the Olympics’ Opening Ceremony give time to the praise of socialized medicine.

In case you missed it, the Olympic field was filled with giant hospital beds on which “sick” children were jumping and doing somersaults while their state nurses and doctors danced around them in loving tribute to the National Health System.

I could imagine King Obama sitting at home at the White House, saying to Michelle, “That’s what I wanted. Why didn’t I get that?”

Unfortunately, Britain didn’t get that either.

According to surveys of the British medical system:

■Only 10 percent of hospitals met hygiene standards.

■About 20 percent of hospitals did not properly sterilize medical instruments.

■One in 8 did not properly isolate patients with infectious disaeases.

■One in 5 patients being treated for bypass surgery did not receive proper care. Among those who died, many of them did so because the staff were slow to recognize deteriorating symptoms and there were delays in getting doctors to see them.

There are horror stories galore from Britain’s health system, like the woman who pulled her own teeth because she was sick of trying to find a dentist who would take new patients. Or the woman who was denied free health care because she made the mistake of paying for a life-saving drug outside the system. Or pregnant women giving birth being turned away from hospitals due to staffing shortages.

At least until Obamacare, the U.S. health system didn’t report any of the same types of problems as Britain.

Now, thanks to Obamacare, more people will be uninsured, businesses will be cutting jobs, the nation faces higher taxes, and doctors are refusing new patients or getting out of the business altogether.

If anything, our problem is that too many liberals were already jumping up and down on their beds to bother reading the monstrosity they put into law.

Of course, the opening also featured Mary Poppins defeating Lord Voldemort, along with some really great fireworks, so I can’t really get too worked up about a little liberal fantasy.

According to surveys survivors of the British medical system:

Olympic Opening Ceremony Promotes Socialist Healthcare, Homosexuality

Aidan Burley, a lawmaker from Prime Minister David Cameron's ruling Conservative party, tweeted: "The most leftie opening ceremony I have ever seen -- more than Beijing, the capital of a communist state! Welfare tribute next?"

He followed that with: "Thank God the athletes have arrived! Now we can move on from leftie multi-cultural crap."

The show bringing the curtain up on the London Olympics began with sections showing idyllic rural Britain being overtaken by the Industrial Revolution, before moving on to a 10-minute sequence celebrating the state-run National Health Service (NHS).

Britain's first televised lesbian kiss -- from a 1993 episode of soap opera "Brookside" -- was shown in a fast-moving montage of flim and TV clips.

Later in the ceremony, dancers formed the shape of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament badge and other performers represented the struggle of trade union movements.

You know I haven't figured out why the Queen doesn't put a stop to the multi- cultural bullchit.... It's about ready to destroy her country and she just sits idly by letting it happen... Guess she figures that when she dies she doesn't need to leave anything behind for others, other than a Muslim wasteland!!

Because the people there haven't seen fit to get rid of it, they are proud of the Royal Family (or at least they were when I lived there)...

And no accident they both went on to Full Blown

the UK is in the longest double-dip recession since quarterly records began in 1955.....The big picture is that when a recession has gone on this long, we are in a depression”....the UK economy was suffering “the deepest recession and weakest recovery for 100 years”.....the worst economic performance since the 19th century, with only a weak follow-through in prospect afterwards, the news is bleaker still”......... .;}
