Mitt Romney is heading to Israel, does he know that "socialist" Israel has Universal Healthcare?

[Firebrand Gary]

Yes, yes in fact, Israel has Universal Healthcare. They have an average life expectancy of 82, which is the 4th longest life expectancy.

I'm sure many of us would like to hear about Israel's healthcare system while Monsieur Romney *hint* is in Israel. Surely, being that Israel is the Republican party's favorite nation to cite, surely they cannot really offer Universal Healthcare to their citizens.

So curious to learn more.

1. And he'll go to this country to badmouth the President...

Remember when Republicans said it was treasonous to attack the President on foreign soil?

And watch, the media will not call him out on it.

3. That includes government paid abortions.

For those cons that don't wish for any of their tax dollar to go for abortions, they are legal in Israel if

The woman is younger than seventeen (the legal marriage age in Israel) or older than forty.
The pregnancy was conceived under illegal circumstances (rape, statutory rape etc.), an incestuous relationship, or outside of marriage.
The fetus may have a physical or mental birth defect.
Continued pregnancy may put the woman's life in risk, or damage her physically or mentally.

The U.S tax dollars that go to Israel makes this possible.

5. He's going there to stoke the neocon fantasy

and avoid any mention of the socialist government infrastructure there. And no one in the media will bring this disconnect up nor will they insist that he answer any question related to the government-run healthcare there.

Ironically, Yitzhak Shamir just died last week and expect Rmoney to endorse Shamir's and Bebe's Likud policies and insist that "On my (his) first day in office as President (along with other fanstastical promises)" we will more full speed ahead to bankrupt our country on a quest to bomb bomb bomb Iran. I would not be surprised if Shamir is suddenly baptized as a Mormon, posthumously.

6. He will say when he is President Iran will to get nuclear weapons
