Default Romney opens cock holster, lauds Israeli health care system
So let's get this "conservatives" health care position straight.
He is for the forced Massachusetts health care bill which he oversaw.
He likes the commie, parasite Israeli health care system.
He is against Obama-care which is the same as Romneycare.
Mitt Romney’s praise for the Israeli health care system, made near the end of his foreign trip, followed him as he returned home Tuesday, raising eyebrows because he lauded a system that has more government control than the Obama health law Romney so strenuously faults.
Romney, speaking to donors Monday, commented on how Israel — a “pretty healthy nation” — spends far less on health care than the United States does. Israel’s success in controlling costs is often attributed to the heavy role of its government and a requirement that everyone have coverage, some of the same qualities Romney condemns in the health law Obama authored.

“We have to find ways, not just to provide health care to more people, but to find ways to finally manage our health care costs,” Romney said during the fund-raiser at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem.

Romney’s praise for Israel’s health care system was greeted with some surprise.

“We’re laughing — for a Republican to praise the Israeli health care system, which is managed care, universal coverage, with no small amount of federal government control and oversight,” said Karen Feinstein, president and chief executive of the Pennsylvania-based Jewish Healthcare Foundation, which has been studying the differences between the Israeli and US health care systems.

The comments are yet another example of an off-message moment during a six-day foreign trip that tested Romney’s diplomatic skills, and frayed the nerves of some of his campaign aides.

Romney did not praise all aspects of the Israeli health care system, focusing mostly on its ability to keep costs low.

“Our health care costs are completely out of control,” he said. “Do you realize what health care spending is as a percentage of the [gross domestic product] in Israel? Eight percent. You spend 8 percent of GDP on health care. . . . We spend 18 percent of our GDP on health care. Ten percentage points more.”

Health care and left-leaning bloggers Tuesday were all too eager to explain to the candidate the cost-saving lesson he should take from the Israelis: more government regulation is sometimes a good thing.

Romney’s campaign said it was a stretch to view his comments as praising the entire Israeli health care system, saying he was simply commenting on its lower costs and was criticizing the US system more than he was praising the Israeli one.

“The governor was criticizing our broken health care system and the failure of Obamacare to address the health care challenges facing our country,” said a Romney campaign spokesman, Ryan Williams.

Also a little gem about how Mitten's fan boi's can get an app that will notify them the second Mittens chooses his VP.
It's called Mitt's VP.
Let's not all rush to download it at once.
We will break the server.

Romney is an Israeli retard, period. He should spend a couple weeks in the desert fasting without water.
