Feingold: Obama Responsible For Loss Of Public Option

Commented Dec 20, 2009 at 19:41:16 in Politics

“Feingold's passion is noted, but if he thinks it's possible for a president to force 60 senators to fly in formation together on a public option, maybe he should run for president.”

Barbyrah replied on Dec 20, 2009 at 19:50:59

“Bill Moyers is a respected journalist. PLEASE view the following; it pretty clearly reveals...Obama got what he wanted. Emanuel negotiated, in private closed door deals, with insurance guys. Twenty-seven visits to the WH from these execs from Feb. thru mid-June. And the whole single payer/public option...taken off the table through this process.
P.S. Remember, this is the guy who took the Clinton machine down in about a year and who took control of the Demo party in less than two years. My guess is, if he'd wanted it...he'd have gotten it. (Or at least rallied the public around him to get pretty darn close.)

“Landmark health care legislation has passed, something never before achieved despite decades of attempts, with the goal of providing quality, affordable healthcare to all citizens.

And instead of celebrating the incalculable benefits this will provide to our society, some people insist on wringing their hands about how federal funds will not be available for an elective procedure that is still legal and available.

If you want an abortion, make an appointment and go get one. Just don't ask the rest of us to pay for it.

And before this red herring is pulled out.....yes, by all means, lets not have federal funds pay for Erectile Dysfunction meds either.”

“That is no sucker punch. Byron Hout acted like a punk and had his jaw adjusted for it. A glass jaw, no less.

That being said, a suspension is definitely warranted.”

“Hout acted like a punk?

So Blount waiting till he looked away to punch him in the face makes Blount what? Golden Glove material?

HA! He's on the bench for the season, and if he does make it to the NFL, his paycheck is gonna be a lot smaller. And the entire Football world will be watching him, and if he even f@rts wrong, he'll be finished.

Frankly, he should be in jail as we speak. You would be if you did it. . .”
