Here's some "spin" from the web page you directed us to.

Add the people who oppose because the bill is not liberal enough (13%),
and the people who support the bill (39%), then you get 52%, which is
more than half.

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 ****.


Why should they have to participate? 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.

Members of congress pay for their health insurance.
They have a choice of a number of plans

If that is indeed the case then why write into the bill a specific
exclusion for them from the law itself?
In a nutshell, congress just passed a law that pertains to everyone
else in the country but congress and the administration.
They do not have to purchase insurance if they don't want to with no
penalty period.
Apparently you believe they are indeed your betters and should not be
bound by the same rules as the rest of us. Good sheep.

What "will of the people"?

You keep regurgitating the mantra that Americans "dont want health
care reform"---and that's NOT what the polls indicate, nor is it
accurate to claim thats not one of the things demcrats were
specfically sent to address.


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.


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 bill had the public option and which poll covered it?

Please cite the specific poll that says this. Also it's odd that you
include those who don't support the bill because it's not liberal
enough as supporting the bill.

There was no such bill that made anywhere near the final cut - but
when the GP was asked about specific ideas, whether in a written draft
or not, numerous polls since the beginning of this debate showed a
fairly substantial, if not always overwhelming, preference for a
public option. IF you want me too, I believe I can locate the results
of "a few." Say the word.
