“As PT Barnum said, "There's a sucker born every minute".”

“Well said”

“What is so unusual about that ?
Left or right, we are just trying to get a piece of the same pie.
Bosses are not hiring when they can squeeze the last drop of productivity out of their employees,
in the name of recession while those who cannot afford health insurance would love to have it free. This struggle between the have and have-nots have been going on for ages, perhaps not as
open as it is now. The government's job should be to keep it balanced.”

“Spot on”

“Thank you.

Next?”

“The reality is that this is a no win situation for the democrats. Pass this garbage bill and it's certain failure. This bill is designed for failure. Don't pass a bill and it's failure. They have the majority if they can't get what they want now how do you foresee them making these amendments in the future?

You see it has to be all or nothing, because the next best chance to make any signficant progress may not come for a very long time. Compromising doesn't solve real world problems only political problems. Problems in the real world don't have compromises they have solutions. Any compromise reduces the optimal solution.

I don't consider this bill significant progress. It's a token and in the end doesn't change the game or the system and will impact few Americans at a high cost and the winners are the same people who bought our legislators- the health insurance industry. You can say we're poor losers and you're right, we lost and didn't get anything in return.”

“AGREED! We have been listening.”

“They are the reason he is president if it weren't for progressives We'd have president Hillary.”

“HP will blame Obama. It's all his fault. Expect to see AH screaming at someone on E*d's show about it. Any ideas when she's going to start the L*y*n*c*h O*b*a*m*a website?”

“I'm with you. I'll never vote for another Democrat, and I'll ESPECIALLY never vote for Obama again. He's borderline incompetent and is following through on nothing he campaigned for.”

“I'll always vote because it's a way of limiting the damage that can occur, but I'm about to give up on healthcare reform.

It's not that they "figure out a way to mess this up", the senate is a messed up system which could use some changes and a freakin smidgeon of cooperation.”

“They all work for health insurance companies............ they love
the golden goose.”

“'cause we are lazy spoiled children who would

rather whine and cry than actually try o change anything”

“Yeah, there's definitely something egocentric about applying yourself a grade, particularly when all-too-clearly balanced about between one's extremely high opinion of themselves and an attempt to feign modesty by dipping just below the maximum value.”

“That's what I thought, too. I hope I'm wrong, but it seems like the power is going to Obama's head. It's like we brought him to the big dance and he ditched us.”

“Amen! I have voted for Demorats for 50 years! Now, it looks like they are just as corrupt and incompetent as the Baby Bush & F-U Cheney Ministratation! I will not vote for or contribute to either major party! We have been screwed too often by the REPUKES & the Demorats!
VOTE INDEPENDENTS!”

“Oh boy, there goes my credibility. I caught my error just as I clicked "post." Drat. Thanks for commenting.”
