It’s time to put the Beeb to bed

Have a read of this piece, currently trending on the BBC ‘Most Popular Stories’ section.
Now tell me they’re not guilty of playing politics, being socialist sympathisers and a mouthpiece for the expansion of the state? No, you can’t say it, can you?
Incredible, how the state funded BBC, which is supposed to be politically and ideologically neutral posts drivel such as stating as a fact that socialised healthcare would be better for America. Or how about the line where they say Bush talked nonsense and Al Gore was God? The whole piece is a bloody joke.
Lastly, they cite Thomas Frank, author of “The Wrecking Ball: How Conservatives Rule” as a source of information to trust as to whether or not the healthcare bill is a good idea.
They seem to be unable to understand that attempts to force ridiculous things upon the American people is precisely why America became America in the first place. Now the left is calling people unable to afford full healthcare, “turkeys voting for Christmas” because they don’t believe government should intervene every which way. That’s some profound respect for democracy there guys. No, really. Marx called; says he wants his lunacy back.
“They seem to be unable to understand that attempts to force ridiculous things upon the American people is precisely why America became America in the first place.”
Couldn’t have said it better.
