I have said no such thing. I am saying the polls indicate a majority of the public opposed the health care bill just passed by the House. Hopefully, those Representatives who felt it necessary to show disdain for the will of their constituents will be replaced at the next election. |

The dems have given the HMO's & Insurance companies one hell of a payback for their political contributions. Why the hell do you think all of their stock went up? The American People deserve fair and clear cut medical coverage, but this bill is going to cost Americans more off their paychecks and more in taxes. Somehow, the word 'fair' doesn't seem to enter into the democratic lexicon. .. .. "Single payer" or "Medicare for all" would have been better...but its all we could do in face of fierce opposition. |

Hey, The Republitards have been kissing insurance company ass for the last 30 years, so what's the difference. Really, Single Payer is the only way to NOT kiss insurance ass! |

Nice attempt at spin. When asked about the specific bill, the majority in every poll, was against it. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...plan-1130.html Apparently the politicians that pushed so hard to pass the bill ain't crazy about it as there is an exemption written into the bill exempting them from having to participate. What Obama has preached as being so wonderful for the American citizens isn't good enough for him or any of the democrats that helped write the piece of ****. And the idiotic liberals see nothing wrong with that. They must really see the piece of crap as their messiah since they are willing to excuse them from the law of the land, no? |

Hopefully, those Representatives who felt it necessary to show disdain for the will of their constituents will be replaced at the next election. Those surveys were too vague to have any meaning. No one knew what was in that bill. They knew what they heard from the mainstream media, which was (and is) totally distorted and flat-out inaccurate. When asked about specific provisions, including a public option, the people are overwhelmingly in favor of the legislation. What I see on TV is a bunch of media toadies fighting against a slight tax increase on their oligarch masters. Limbaugh's ****ed because he has to pay a decent income tax rate. |

I'll be old enough for Medicare when most of this kicks in. Just like when I turned 21 and they lowered the drinking age to 18. |

Nobody that already has insurance is required to buy more. Military retirees do not have to buy insurance because they have lifetime coverage. If you are already insured, you will not be required to buy more insurance. Congresscritters all have free government coverage. Not sure whether it's for life or not, but certainly while they are in office. |
