  • @bigtex501 That was funny as hell! "PUNT"? Never heard that one before, ha, ha, ha!!! Good one.

  • People angry over this bill are vastly people in white America. They know that this bill is going to help low-income people, minorities, and children. They are so deeply theatened that their way of life will change where corporate greedy white American CEO's of our nation's health insurance companies can no longer weed out poor black and poor latino people. I know because a healthcare company denied one my relatives due to their race, gender, and pre-existing condition.

  • Only a trial attorney would write such garbage.

  • What kind of warped society do we live in? Health insurance should be a RIGHT, not a privilege. I am a trial attorney without health insurance. I had to give up my practice. I am willing to marry the right lady for health insurance. Must be willing to move to Washington State or Coeur d Alene, Idaho, a beautiful resort town.

  • In that case, it will be defeated in all 4 of the 5 versions then!!!!

    Today, Senator Wyden (a Dem BTW) from Oregon proposed increasing consumer options allowing employees to buy outside of employer's choices with the money that employer's choice will cost was actually not allowed for dicussion and vote even ... it was hugely supportd by the GOP side but Wyden was forced to withdraw by Kerry, Baucus and Conrad!!

    That clearly shows that it is Dems that are being paid by the insurance comps!

  • I think anybody who argues about the healthcare system without directing the blame at the profit making insurance companies needs to lie down and swallow a pill. One that makes you sleep for a long time.

  • Perhaps it is a chickenshit cop out but ... we're in greedy ass America where no one does anything without a heaping load of self interest piled on top. It's the American Way.

  • MORE reasons to keep **government run health care** OUT of our lives?

    ..John Podesta with the Center for American Progress Democrats continue to support a NATIONAL SALES TAX of UP TO 25% on TOP of existing taxes to pay for these entitlement programs!

    Just think..

    A $30,000.00 car...(under this plan to cover health care)

    Would cost you $38, 575.00 (includes other taxes, title, and license!)

  • Baron,

    Can't support your comments?

    Can't handle the truth?

    Don't know what else to say?

    PUNT! LOL

  • i beg to differ -- illiterate yokels such as yourself are the locusts destroying the country.
