“condescension”- perfect description
Did he explain to the crowd how much money trial lawyers donate to Dem re-election coffers?
Peferct example of someone who needs to go away. Smarmy boy!
The Dems are using McAllen, Texas as an example of out of control medical costs. And this idiot, Israel, blames the tough tort reform in Texas. The real reason for these high costs is illegal immigration that plagues these hospitals in Texas.
I guaran-damn-tee you that if this thing gets passed, tort reform will come after the fact. The federal government always protects itself from legal liability. But for now, they need the trial lawyers on board.
What he doesn’t tell you is that McAllen, TX is in the Rio Grande valley, right on the US/Mexico border, and that it’s full of foreign nationals taking advantage of our generous system.
How do you know a liberal is lying?
His lips are moving.
Sure he will...because it's NOT in there!
"You're saying tort reform now, but if something happens to you, you'll be the first one to want to take the case to a judge and jury," Israel said. "I don't believe a member of the United States Congress should decide when you can go to court."
But Members of Congress can decide to 'ration' my medical care? So can I sue the Gov't if "something happens" to me because it took 6 months to get an appt?

“Stop calling me a liar and let me finish!”
good to see that the large majority of comments on that site, are anti-lib. the few that are pro , claim that protestors are paid off dupes of insurance companies, or the GOP. strange that libs cant undestand someone acting on their own. apparently its beyond their comprehension.
This is the sickening side of democracy. A roomful of stupid savages whooping it up for something they don’t understand. Yeah, you’re gonna fix healthcare by reducing what is less than 1/2 of 1% of total costs. We spend about 8 times more on bank overdraft fees then we do tort payouts.
parsy, who starts his day disgusted
Apparently, the people want to rein in the ambulance-chasing scumbag lawyers and their “jackpot justice”. Sometimes gifts present themselves on golden platters to Republicans. Let’s see if, yet again, the Republicans turn up their noses and say, “No, thank you.”
That Congresscritter is SOOOOOOOOO full of BS:
