Hey Senator Gregg, why can't we have your health insurance?

At a recent New Hampshire town hall, Salem resident Jane Lang asks Senator Gregg some questions about health care reform. She asks, how can he be against a federal program, if that's how he gets his health insurance? She also reminds seniors that Medicare is also a federally funded program. Thanks Jane, for speaking out for so many people who are pro-reform.

Jane is right. The money wasted on the Iraq war is going to be about $1.9 Trillion, without counting the thousands of Americans dead and handicapped young Americans that could have contributed greatly to society returning back at home; the CBO estimate for the Iraq war doesn't take into account either the world instability that resulted in higher energy prices that the Iraq war created. And then why all this crying about $1 Trillion which is going to go to improving health care for all!?!?

The best part about the "$1 Trillion" argument is that when you point out to people that that number is over 10 years, they think you're talking crazy. The CBO report does say "over 10 years", but because the "news" (most notably FOX) doesn't say that part, they think you're lying because they won't read the report for themselves. Nevermind the fact that we will spend $5 trillion+ on defense spending and that will increase the deficit... oh over the next 10 years.

He voted to keep women quite when they are raped by a tax funded Corperation hired by the government. He and 29 other Republican senators. Luckily the Franken amendment passed thanks to every democrate and 1/3 the republicans (women) so now women like Jamie Leigh Jones who was gang raped can take her rapists to court. No thanks to senators like you Mr. Judd Gregg.

are you suggesting that the government can create and provide people with jobs? Thats some crazy communist shit right there karen. I've got a real job from a small business and nobody gives me the kind of coverage I pay for Senator Gregg to have. I guess I'm a better employer than he is a representative.

Jane is an idiot. The Senator gets his healthcare insurance from his employer. The reason Jane cant have it is because she is not direct government employee. (Though being a SEIU thug does have her indirectly working for the DC mob). If Jane doesnt like her insurance, maybe she should get a real job. A job where she isnt pissing away union dues to a bunch of thugs.
