Now, we'll all have affordable healthcare.

Trust me when I say that it will magically reappear during reconciliation with the House bill. It's just gone now to reduce the pressure.

We'll see.........

Instead of more affordable healthcare for the less fortunate, we are getting less healthcare for more people and more money.

If BHO wants a healthcare bill under his Christmas tree, the PO is gone for good.

It's bad enough without the PO but I don't trust our representatives to keep it out before final passage.

Stop calling it heath care...because it isn't. It's health insurance.

That's right, and to make a profit from it is pretty much forbidden in every other industrialized nation that provides it for less money with at least equal to if not better health outcomes.

Thank god we don't have that.

Newcomer of the Year Nomination

I believe I just saw some poll numbers indicating %60 want a public option. Too lazy to look it up.

Most recent poll I can find.

But the Bush 30% don't......what they say, goes!

The linked article says that 41% are for the plan while 51% oppose it.

More telling is that 41% strongly oppose it, while only about 28% (I think) strongly support it.

Are we now resorting to simply saying that about 60% support this nonsense in the face of a link that says otherwise? Sounds like Harry Reid telling us that the sky is green again.

believe it or not, I actually was in favor of a public option, as long as it was an OPTION.

Not all of them were Southern Baptists, damnit. Some were Methodist, and one Presbyterian who believed he was "pre-destined" to be there at that moment, with food stamps, sharing that moment with you.
