That last sentence leads us back to the birthers and teabaggers.

"I challenge any of you Obamatrons to address the statistics "

Here goes:
1) The statistics are selective reasoning at it's finest.
2) We aren't going to a system anything similar to England Or Canada.
3) It's an exact cut and paste traveling around the right wing blogs.
4) There is no United Nations International Health Organization.
5) Statistics like these are NOT kept. Prove me wrong.

There. Now I challenge you to find this statistic:

The percentage of people in each of those three countries who have health care.



I see,......selective reasoning. Statistics like this are NOT kept,.......gee, perhaps I should have done my research before posting. Why would anyone want to keep statistics on cancer survival rates? How silly of me to jump to conclusions without knowing where the information came from,.............wait a minute.

On March 24th, 2009 the National Center for Policy Analysis published a study labeled "10 Suprising Facts About American Healthcare". In it you will find many of the healthcare statistics in the copy/paste job above, all sourced and referenced. Read away to your heart's desire.

Now, why does the above post reference the fictitious "United Nations International Health Organization"? You got me. My best guess is it was some neoconservative dimbulb who posted information somewhere thinking it was correct information so they could compare with liberal dimbulbs just how big of dimbulbs they are to each other. I would tell you that you could have found this out yourself if you looked past the second Google entry you found but I suspect your research skills are lacking anyway, what's the use.

To answer your brain buster challenge question: my guess would be 100% since no one is denied healthcare if they need help. Health insurance, as you must know, is something all together different and I don't have those statistics for you off hand.
