What a corporate pig.

"We ensured that if there is a government option, it will be just that -- an option -- and it won't be mandated on anybody. If it had been based on Medicare rates, I can assure you that it would have eventually ended up resulting in a single payer-type system, because Medicare has really good rates, because they're negotiating for every senior in America. Private insurance companies could not have competed with that."

We will not forget that you put insurance co. profits before citizens.

2121975s,

What the fuck are you talking about. I say that both parties are equally on the take, f*cktard! My point was that the Pharmaceutical industry is corrupt and pay top dollar for special treatment for their industry. What about this fact do you have a problem with? You are just a half-wit troll with no job or life. Before you start exclaiming that you have a job... sucking GOP c*ck doesn't count! You need to be paid for it to be a legitimate job.

And yet, if you trace the money, it's the democrats who have taken money more often than any other.

Pointless argument you make.

Who subsidizes the pharmaceutical Industry? Annually, the industry spends nearly twice as much on marketing as it spends on research and development, although drug companies report neither total precisely. Various news reports estimate that the industry spent anywhere between $30 billion to $60 b on marketing in 2004.

To read the real story of the pharmaceutical industry special relationship with our corrupt government you should google "Pushing Prescriptions by The Center For Public Integrity".

It's funny how libs always pick on the pharmaceutical companies. They think they are evil because they actual make a ... *gasp* ... profit.

Little do they realize, the pharmaceutical industry IS the reason why Americans enjoy a long lifespan and have less diseases and sicknesses.

Yet, at the same time, the libs are the ones pushing the new H1N1 innoculation (which was developed by ... a pharmaceutical company!)

[2121975s]

Oh, I see. You're one of those ignorant black men who thinks "Pure" african and "Original Man" and all that crap aren't you?

[2121975s]

P.S.S - Since when has pure meant original? In what dictionary, in what common usage, has pure ever meant original? Come on, seriously, wtf

[2121975s]

P.S. There aren't enough "rethuglicans" to stop the bill from passing. If EVERYONE of them voted against it, it would still pass, their numbers are so low.

So who is standing in Obama's way? THE DEMOCRATS you moron.

[2121975s]

He hasn't said anything Original either. Promises he has broken? Promised to put an end to earmark spending. Hasn't happened. Promised to put up a website so the public could view any bill the president was going to sign and vote on it. Hasn't happened. Promised Free healthcare. Promised "affordable" healthcare. Promised No tax increase for healthcare. Promised Universal healthcare. Hasn't happened.

So yeah, which promise HASN'T he broken, Democretian?

[standforchange08]

When I say PURE, I mean Original, what part of Pure do you not understand? He has not broken any promises, if you rethuglicans would step aside, and let him work.
