YouTube You Choose Question 5

[CorruptBarbies]

If stupidity is a virtue, Dino Rossi deserves to win.

Did I miss something or did not say anything that you would do to improve patient care?

You said Washington has the best "Health IT" and you would use that to improve hospitals access to information. Under who's leadership does Washington have the nations leading Health IT program? Gov. Gregoire perhaps?

The very same Gov. Gregoire who has worked to get Washington ranked 3rd in the nation for businesses.

You say nothing, Gov. Gregoire does something.

"Under who's [sic] leadership does Washington have the nations leading Health IT program? Gov. Gregoire perhaps?"

What has she has actually done in this area?

"The very same Gov. Gregoire who has worked to get Washington ranked 3rd in the nation for businesses."

Those same rankings that do not even include the B&O tax. Those rankings were pathetically dumb, if you actually analyzed them.

"Gov. Gregoire does something."

What? Apart from trying to bankrupt us with universal health care?

Can you improve upon Mr. Rossi's answer to the question? If so, I would love to hear it. Something coherent would be great.

Regarding Gov. Gregoire doing something specific to give Washington the greatest Health IT program in the nation, does it matter? Everything Rossi's supporters say is wrong with Washington is her responsibility. Therefore, if it is good, she should get the credit as well.

If you don't like that, try being consistent for a change.

"Can you improve upon Mr. Rossi's answer to the question?"

I don't speak for Senator Rossi, but no, I won't answer anything if you won't answer my question.

"Regarding Gov. Gregoire doing something specific to give Washington the greatest Health IT program in the nation, does it matter?"

Since this is the entire crux of your original point, yes, it does.

[spineless1]

Try reading the first post.

As usual, Rossi has nothing to stand on.

[pudgenet]

No, I am not that dumb.

You did not say what Gregroire did. You said thing that happen that you want to credit her for. What did she DO?

If you can't answer (and you can't), then fine, just don't pretend you have a point.

[spineless1]

Go to the dictionary and look up hypocrite, now go to the mirror.

Rinse and repeat.

[pudgenet]

Yes, yes, you do all you can to avoid actually backing up your point. I am shocked.

[spineless1]

Here is the point in clear terms that you can understand.

1. Rossi offers nothing in his video response to "improving patient care", just rambling about how great Washington's Health IT is.

2. Rossi supporters go out of their way to claim everything they perceive as bad done as part of Washington state government is Gov. Gregoire's fault. My point, you so carelessly missed, is that if you cast responsibility for everything "bad", you must also attribute everything "good" then as well.

Look. It's quite simple.

You said in your first post that Gregoire was to be credited for having great health IT. I asked you what she actually did. You then lied and said you already said what she did. I asked you again. And instead of telling us what she did, you attack Rossi, and me.

Tell us what she did, or admit you can't, or just slink away. But don't bring that weak sauce in here, you're not good enough to pull it off.

[spineless1]

Slink away? Not a chance when I have the opportunity to mess with rocks like yourself. It is truly entertaining, though pointing out blatant hyprocrisy doesn't go very far with you does it?

[pudgenet]

You're still dodging your own point.

[spineless1]

Besides, I never once said Gov. Gregoire created the current Health IT infrustructure. I merely leveraged the typical Rossi supporters guilt of association to make my conclusion.

But again, Rossi supporters aren't able to make the case that his response to the question was in anyway competent or coherent. Rossi's response was the equivilent of saying that computers would improve patient care. WTH! You can keep arguing my comment regarding Health IT, but it still doesn't address my first post.
