Some Republican Senators just put out this video.
I'm confused.
Could somebody please tell me
please tell me
please tell me
what these people people people
are talking about???
Why are these guys still pretending to be upset about a health reform bill that now has not a smidgen of government-run health care whatsoever??
They've got what they wanted.
No public option. No medicare buy-in. A watered down, ineffective version of reform that I guarantee you will increase costs for consumers and make everyone hopping mad at the Democrats, who had the bright idea of caving in to right-wing demands by stripping out the provisions one by one that could have had a positive impact on the whole sad, sorry state of affairs.
Listen, Mr. Senators. Why don't you guys just go on over to the offices of Aetna, UnitedHealth and Blue Cross, and join their holiday parties? I'm sure they are whooping it up. They just got a giant gift from the U.S Congress, tied up in a pretty red bow.
sigh.

You are correct Lesley and as I said as well, God forbid the GOP gets the House and Senate back in 2010 (or 2012) ...
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine what this country of ours would be like today if Bush & Cheney had this kind of super majorities when they controlled the White House?
The Dems don't realize what they have or they simply have no choice because the lobbyists have way too much power ($$$$$$$$) over them.
Happy Holidays to you & yours, Lesley!
