Summary of new healthcare bill approved and released today

If the bluedogs water it down as to not include a public option immediately available (0.00 / 0)

to the public ( not in some vague trigger mechanism only) then I will advocate that the health care reform package be voted down.

Maybe it has to get a WHOLE lot worse before meaningful reform happens.


I am too informed to be a Republican

Democrats who oppose a public option will go down in history . . . (0.00 / 0)

as the biggest losers and hacks of all time.

It's amazing that there is only one Republican Senator who MIGHT vote for a public option - Olympia Snowe.

As for the Democrats, there is one who is definitely voting NO - Mary F#@$ing Landrieu and OVER 20 who are "on the fence."  These include - Lieberman, Ben Nelson, Tester, Feinstein, and many more.

What is wrong with this picture.  Can't someone herd these bozos back on the bus?  Of course, many Dems who are mulling over the public option seem to get a large percentage of their campaign contributions from insurance companies and healthcare corporations.  It could be just a coincidence . . . but I don't think so.  

Keep your eyes on the prize and don't believe the lies!
