The line I'm waiting for a candidate to utter is:

[Stinky The Clown]

"If we can find well in excess of a half trillion dollars for a bullshit war of choice, we can afford single payer universal health care."

[rzemanfl]

Well, you got better quickly. Glad to see that. n/t

[whistle]

1. That is a great line

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. You're back!

:hug:

And I would happily vote for any candidate who had the cojones to say exactly that.

[stellanoir]

3. Aaaand to forever take care of those less fortunate than ourselves. . .

Hub2 I'm so-o-o pleased to see you back here and hope and pray you're feeling far better.

We'd be totally lost without our stinky the clown spunk or all those scandalous photos' in the cooking forum.

Welcome home and do take care.

[Bonobo]

4. Glad you're up and about! Welcome back.

Quit smoking. I smoked for 20 years and quit 9 months ago. Things are good and now I can't imagine how I smoked that long. Cold turkey is best. 2 weeks out of your system and the misery of quitting will be over, trust me.

[welshTerrier2]

5. the line i'm waiting for a candidate to utter is:

welcome back, Husb2Sparkly !!!

once you've said that ...

[givemebackmycountry]

6. Hey H2S

"Can I bum a smoke?"

The only two responses that you should have to that request is as follows:

Eff you smart-ass!

or

Sorry man, I quit.

I quit myself this weekend when I read Sparklys posts about your setback.

Get well Stinky!

Here's a heart.
Both of ours need all the help they can get.

Take care!

[NanceGreggs]

7. And I'm waiting for the line ...

... "And if elected, I will appoint Husb2Sparkly as head of the newly-formed Department of Common Sense in Government Policy."

(Welcome HOME, H2S!!!)

[Tom Rinaldo]

8. That's the H2S we know and love, lol

Right on as usual!

Hey make sure you watch some concert videos or something in between watching the news, OK? Can't have you getting all worked up constantly for the next few weeks, and the news will do it to ya.

[Bucky]

9. Welcome back, H2S. I mean "Stinky" (blame Sparkly for that one)

And yes, a great line there. I'd be happy if you had a picture of a clown who looked less stressed out, tho. :)

[Stinky The Clown]

11. Here ya go ....... a different clown ......

(A real picture of the young Stinky)

[hootinholler]

15. I knew that this was deep seated!

Welcome back, and I really like the line in the OP.

-Hoot

[calimary]

24. Awwww... what a cutie!

And yes, I'm waiting for that line, too. 'Cause I know where we can get 100-thousand bucks A MINUTE. (Stop the war and bring EVERYBODY home.)

[incapsulated]

10. Welcome Back!

I hope you are doing ok! Stop scaring your wife like that!

:hug:

[sueh]

12. Does Sparkly know you're posting already??

Tee-hee. Welcome home and welcome back H2S. I'm glad you're home and doing better. My hubby had a heart attack almost 2 years ago and we both quit smoking when that happened. I know I'll get in trouble for this, but try this for negotitating with Sparkly. Tell her you'll quit smoking and in return you get to keep watching teevee.

[DemReadingDU]

13. Great line!

glad you are feeling better!

[LeftishBrit]

14. Welcome back, and a great point!

With all its current faults, I'm HUGELY grateful to live in a country with an NHS.

I do hope you are feeling better.

[eridani]

16. Even with the war we can afford it

It is the one item on the progressive agenda that requires NO EXTRA MONEY!

"We are already paying for universal health care--we just aren't getting it." --Dennis Kucinich.

[Evergreen Emerald]

17. Off to the lounge for you!

Less stressful, and funny as hell over there.

Welcome back, dude.

[ms liberty]

18. I'm so glad to see you back H2S!!!

I hope you're feeling better now - we missed you! And you are damned right about that line...it is begging to be someone's mantra!

[NMDemDist2]

19. Stinky!!

what did I tell you about GD/Pol??

:spank:

[Rosa Luxemburg]

20. Dennis Kucinich?

probably has said it?

[leftofthedial]

21. You mean someone like Dennis Kucinich?

health care-defense

"He said he supports a single-payer universal health care system that would provide coverage for various procedures, such as alternative medicines, vision care and long-term health."

[Stinky The Clown]

23. From a related thread of mine .......

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3107642#3108941

So ..... yes, someone like Dennis Kucinich.

[Zhade]

22. Welcome back, buddy!

Glad to see you. :)

[Radical Activist]

25. Kucinich and Obama have said it

using different words, but to make the same point.
