Slightly more serious #2

So it seems I wasn't the only one who noticed that whole "NHS are Evil" thing. Since I last looked, #welovethenhshas been trending hard on twitter, apparently crashing the site yesterday when I went camping (there were up to 1000 new tweets a minute on it when I was looking just now).

Of course, many are popping out in opposition, too, and some are using the #welovethenhs hash tag to do it. My favourite so far has been "because someone else should pay for my bad decisions". Gentlemen and ladies of the right: not your finest hour.

Here are interesting things about it from
the Times, the Guardian, the Daily Mail(don't miss the Hitler picture if you scroll down!) and The Sun. Leading the way on professionalism as ever are BBC.

Edit: And
here's more...
Edit #2:
"The thing you must always remember about the American right wing is that they are basically the baddies in a film."

I was going to say you copied my post but I've been too busy to finish it so my argument falls flat. But. I'm slightly bemused by the actual violence with which the US has greeted what really aren't very socialised healthcare plans...as I keep trying to explain to people at home, the NHS SUCKS but it is FREE. Argh. Nice hat last night.
