McConnell Calls Stimulus Plan "A Big Mistake, A Failure"

Your comment makes no sense. You are saying one thing and proving it with the opposite. You are saying the lobbyists are trying to get more money by assuring a captive market. Yet you are saying they are blocking the reform that does just that.
The current bill reduces competition further, and will increase costs giving them an incentive to charge higher premiums. At the same time Congress is trying to get everyone on insurance even if they don't want to pay.

You're right, I should clarify, they do not want the Public Option. The would love to have insurance made mandatory, with is part of the reform, but they are dead-set against the public option, which would provide government competition. If there is a mandate but no public option, then that would provide them with a captive market.

It's because too many their are too quick to shoot.. Shoot first ask questions later.. I guess some of that reasoning is because so many americans own guns. I agree with you spaceboy, always remember one thing... Media tend to blow things into exagerations, Mitch Mcconnell compliments Cnn and fox's work quite well.. He makes controversy, Mcconnell is a dolt, his words should not be highly trusted in my opinion. He gives media what they want.. Something to make drama with. All for the money.

Media need more fingures pointed at them, they have not been punished enough for what they cause... Youtube also. Youtube is subject to much criticism, so much, that it has been placed in the wikipedia dictionary as it's own topic: Youtube criticism.

and the topic is not small at all.

Media has shaped many minds, describing everything you have noticed in here and elsewhere throughout other comments .spaceboy54.. It should be highly predictable by now, who is downtalking obama and why... Most of the idea's and misconseptions caused by the media directly and indirectly, it shapes peoples thoughts. Particularly ones who are not able to question media, or who have never thought of it. Media is really the enemy with their impatience for the next story. Money money money.

And what sells the most? Negativity, saying things rude, outrageous and exagerated (just as obama said in another interview with him, 100% spot on) You should have.. John King even smiled right after he said the truth to him about the media.. He knows it the basterd! John King.. And Mitch Mcconnell is a stupid Wealthy republican, full of unease, a great reflection of John Mccain. Delusional people who insist they are winners. Mitch is noticeably a scum of this planet. Of no significant use.
