CBS Evening News: Dem Leaders Sweeten Special Deals in Health Care Bill

Democratic leaders have made clear that no cost is too high and no backroom deal is too dirty in their attempt to scrounge up 216 votes for a government takeover of health care. In a mad scramble to thrust upon the American people a bill they have already rejected, Democratic leaders are focused only on the next vote that can be secured with a taxpayer giveaway for a fellow Democrats worried about job security after defying the will of his or her constituents. Perhaps they think process doesnt matter, but, in fact, the American people are watching.

yes, there are usually backroom deals, but rarely to the extent to which these deals have been made and the amount of money involved.

the ideat that dems and the GOP aren't behind handing over tons of business by law to insurance companies is the classic bedtime story for the retarded american citizen.

just like dems and the GOP enabled credit default swap instruments that collapsed the global economy for good. the only difference between the two is that GOP members owned much more stock than the dems and got richer off tax payer money.

when you're stupid, you get what's coming to you.

Get real. Backroom deals are how Washington operates every single day. like the lady said this one just happens to be getting extra scrutiny. They all do this stuff both GOP and Dems. I defy anyone to show me any type of substantive legislation that is absolutely free of a single backroom deal for votes. It's been going on since the first Continental Congress. Get over it.

All Democrats are corrupt

Time to throw all the bums out! This to clean house! Time to take back what was stolen! Have these "elected officials" have no shame? They just put paid government bureaucrats in high standing and marginalized doctors. They just killed new drugs and research into better care since all the money will now go to those who pay nothing. Only the very wealthy will get the best care. The rest of us, tough shit! Get ready for stagnation in health care and rationing. Old people, die fast,
