Rasmussen: Citizens Not Accepting Delivery Of Health Care Manure
Stephen Kruiser ^ | 11/05/09 | Stephen Kruiser

Bureaucrats in Congress can spin all they want about a public option "creating competition" but people who live and work in the real world know they're full of it.

Seventy-two percent (72%) of voters nationwide say passage of the proposed health care plan could lead companies to drop private health insurance coverage for their employees. Forty-eight percent (48%) say it's very likely.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that only 16% say it’s unlikely that employers would seek to save money by shifting their workers to a government health insurance "public" option. But only three percent (3%) say it's not at all likely.

Of course, the goal all along has been to provide a head-fake interim step to nationalized health care. Anyone on the left who tells you differently is either lying or deluded (the two prerequisites for espousing the progressive side of any argument).

I predict a Republican sweep in 2010 if the Dems ram this down our throats.

I think it will be a Republican sweep even if they don’t pass it. For all the other horrors they have perpetrated. It could be a complete wipe-out with super GOP majorities if that pass Obamacare.

“Republican sweep...” I hope you’re right but I predict an October surprise: BHO announces the end of the recession, downward trend of the National Debt, upward trend of housing market, chicken in every pot... and every other LIE possible. And 52% of the voters will buy his BS.

“...only 16% say it’s unlikely that employers would seek to save money by shifting their workers to a government health insurance ‘public’ option. But only three percent (3%) say it’s not at all likely.”

In other words 19% of those polled are either morons or bald-faced liars. 20% of Americans say they are liberal. Could there be a correlation here?
