“No taxes, no tyranny!” declare Somalia-bound anti-Obamacare Americans
Determined to live in a country without “socialized medicine,” a group of conservatives from across the country set sail from Port Everglades this past Friday aboard a commandeered cruise ship. Destination: unknown.

“We were going to Costa Rica, like Rush had planned,” one passenger remarked. “But then, we found out they’ve got commie healthcare, too.”

Limbaugh himself, conducting his radio show from aboard the newly christened S.S. Freedom Eagle, denied that the ship could find no port of call. “Ladies and gentlemen, this is just another example of the drive-by media’s attempts to brand conservatives as a party without ideas,” the far-right icon declared. “We know where we’re going — we’re going to liberty. To freedom. To wherever our money will not be stolen from us by the government in the form of so-called ‘taxes.’ ”

But where exactly that is remained a point of contention. “We figured there’d have to be someplace in the Americas that had no public health care,” remarked Capt. Wesley Carlson as he looked over a map of the world, color-coded by health-care availability. “But it’s been remarkably difficult to find. Everyplace along the eastern seaboard has it — Brazil, Argentina, even Uruguay. And if we pass through the Straits , it’s the same story in Chile and on up the coast.”
