“Here comes the Big Pivot.

Unions are saying they'll sit out 2010 if there's no public option. So who are you going to worry about, Ben Nelson or the unions? Duh. IT doesn't have to have 60 votes to pass. Let them filibuster!

Obama about to move back behind public option in a big way. You heard it here first.”

“Didn't the Party of NO already bankrupt the Country?
Why should a Public Option on Health Care bankrupt the country? Canada and other industrialised countries that have Universal HC or Single Payer are not bankrupt? We are healthier, happier, we live longer and we do not have to suffer bankruptcy due to individual Health Care costs. Canada is a country of 33 million people, our tax rate is 10% higher that in the US, a country of 330+ million people, we invest more in education compared to the US, yet we're are not suffering and don't mind paying more in taxes because we believe HC is very important for the success and stabilization of our country and our citizens.
It's time the naysayers and the Rethuglians stop the BS and start doing something good for the citizenry of the country they claim to love.”

“yeah, we could. but that would be too easy.

we could also have a 1-page income tax and still keep it progressive, but that would be too easy.

we could be logical and act in our own best interests, but that would be too hard. Why? Lobbyists own DC, you don't. As PJ O'Rourke called it, "The Parliament of Whores".”

“thankfully the GOP isn't in control right now. The great wisdom of "Bring 'em on" would surely make the Iran green movement look like a US puppet show, thereby killing it.”

“Isn't it ironic that something as obvious (plain as the nose on your face) as what you have pointed out seems to escape the moe-rons who infest or infect these MSM Sunday morning gasbag shows?

SInce the election, I have weaned myself from actually watching this collective tripe but thoroughly enjoy Jason's hilarious restatement of the things we really need to know about these shows.

Meanwhile, Barack Obama is handling the Iranian situation exactly as he should, for the reasons to which you have alluded. What is happening to Ahmadinnerjacket and the ruling mullahs in Teheran is exactly what happened to the GOP last fall. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.”
