The Wrong Direction

Submitted by Alan Roberts, Jul 9, 2007 21:26

We all know that Michael Moore is terminally ill in the head, but I didn't think he is recruiting suicide bombers from the ranks of the socialized medical personnel, or if he is, they don't make the director's cut. Isn't this just a case of a system that, for other reasons, is wide open to exploitation by terrorists, doctors by another name? Clever, these terrorists. Doctor sleeper cells. What will they think of next? Euthanasia or infanticide? They didn't make very good bombers, it appears.
