Good one, Olbermann!

We have to take back our government people-otherwise they all think it's ok-to give a trillion a year away in foreign aid and forget the average american! Vote all incumbents out and go wit progressives!

Let's hope the Dems get up the BALLS to do it.

Uh, corncat, I think you have your facts wrong; Obama supported a public option, which Baucus killed, that would have allowed everyone a Choice between their own private plan which they could keep, or a gov.-administered plan (I'm talking about the paperwork, not the medicine). Even if Obama had once put forward such a bill, it would have been Medicare for All, not crummy private insurance with high deductibles no-one can afford, for all; putting billions more in the insurance cos' pockets.

Max Baucus ... please tell all Americans your NOT seriously considering the bill as it sits... HOW on gods green earth would that help American families....

Most definitely.
I'm much more optimistic now than I was a month ago, however. The CBO showing that the Baucus bill REDUCES the debt means that the plan could serve as a bottom floor for the debate. A public option could be added to that bill without adversely affecting the debt.
And the Baucus bill has no cost control on the private side, so there are ways to squeeze more savings out of the plan.
In the long run, Baucus could end up really helping the cause.
Fellow Montanans it's Time to Retire Max Baucus from the Senate.

Max Baucus does not represent the people of Montana. He represents the interests of insurance companies.
