  • Your paycheck already went in the pockets of insurance executives.

  • These pigs have completely served all ties with their old lives. They're to go into Congress as ordinary people of this country and leave the same way. Yet they've built up an aristocratic, law free society around them.

    James Madison said if anyone in Congress or all of government ever seems themselves above the people and doesn't even abide by the laws they pass then all of government will surely become corrupt.

    We lend rights to the government. The government does not lend rights to us.

  • Can you tell me, where, in my previous comment, I supported bush or his policies?

  • What's more, limp dlucas90, aside from the $10 trillion in unpaid bills, the Republicans gave Obama, the two failed wars they started, they couldn't finish. Sure, you can then argue that the Republicans didn't lose the wars. They only dumped the piles of steaming, toxic, Vietnam shit on the next President to fix. Talk about traitors. The the GOP did the noxious Depression-shit on our economy. WOW. They failed domestically AND in foreign policy! And they say loudly, THEY WANT OBAMA TO FAIL! WTF?

  • You're got such a soft-brain, dlucas90. Idiots like you don't read, don't think, but just spout BS and garbage. In the last 8 yrs, Bush and the Republicans BORROWED-and-SPENT us more than $10 trillion dollars more in debt/deficit. That's before Obama even stepped foot in the WH, nimrod. Bush doubled the national debt to $12T, didn't pay the $3T for his 2 failed wars, gave Obama a $1.3T deficit, and TARP. By the way, idiot, in billions, that's $10,000 billion. You're a fukin clown. Taxes, indeed.

  • Bux, you are WRONG, read up on your shit

  • PEOPLE LISTEN. This is great do not believe the BS that's being toss around. We need this look at the bill and look at the details....look at the deatails.

  • We will all be FORCED to BUY!!

    if ur broke ... ur gunna become a criminal

  • There was NO Public Option on the Baucus bill -- IT SUCKS BIG TIME!

  • It's a joke unless we get a strong Public option!

  • Oh goodie! Now, we the tax-payers, can pay for a government program that will "compete" with the finacial / insurance monopolies we the tax-payers were just forced to bail out! We the tax-payers, are paying for both "sides" of the competition!

    What needs to be done is to have the anti-trust and anti-monopoly laws ENFORCED agianst these monopolistic finacial /insurance giants.

    Only a sucker would believe that a government monopoly should be created to "fix" a problem caused by monopolies.
