7/6     Fox News claims universal health care causes terrorism
        http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/015020.php
        MSNBC picks up the claim as well
        http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/015031.php
        \_ You're posting a link to a blog that is the same as your subject
           line--well okay, it mentions Neil Cavuto.  Anything else to add?
           Like say, an actual quote that substantiates the claim?
           \_ Gee, see that youtube video stream THAT IS PART OF THE BLOG
              POST, maybe just maybe that might be proof enough.  This whole
              "instantly claim there is no proof in an attempt to debunk
              the fact that the nutters are in charge of the american right"
              bit is getting old.  Then again I bet you think global
              warming is a giant communist consipracy.
              \_ Ah, youtube is blocked at my company, so I didn't even see it.
        \_ So what do you think causes terrorism?

next (July 05, 2007 -- 06:45 PM EDT) Ahhh, I guess it was only a matter of time. Fox News goofball Neil Cavuto explains why universal health care programs are a leading source of terrorism. Private health care seems to be the right prescription for a secure homeland.

Late Update: It's one of the features of our age that there's a very fine line separating ideas that are too silly to even take note of and ones that quickly began to have a real effect on the public policy debate. Here we have one that clearly should be in the former category but is more likely in the latter. So if you see this line of reasoning popping up on the web or on tv, please let us know.
