A direct quote from Iowa Congressman Steve King's remarks at CPAC.
I had the opportunity to chat with the Congressman after his speech and ask him to further explain this statement:
And after all of these months of debate and negotiations, it comes down to this: if you start out with that tainted stew, there is no part of it that Americans want. We don't want a pot full, we don't want a bowl full, we don't want a spoon full, a cup full, or any kind measure of toxic stew called socialized medicine. We want it dead. Throw it out and start over.

I was impressed with his support for stand alone legislation regarding healthcare - no cornhusker kickback need apply. He also advocated a more careful and measured approach to reforming healthcare by 'fixing the things that are wrong, let the free market do the rest and find out what the next flaw is."
The interview lasts about 15 minutes, again I would suggest you turn up the volume when viewing the video. It was a rather busy lobby to shoot video.
PS: Just ignore the bad hair day, okay :)

flop flop flop flop ... Socialism is a worldwide flop.
The ‘flop flop’ sound you hear is the blowout right before the Socialist car crashes into a tree.
The cost increases in the current health care system are unsustainable....every reasonable thinking person knows that. Some bright conservative surely can put together some reasonable, effective measures that will pass muster.
They have done that, it's the Republican free market based plan.
As long as someone else is paying the bill, the costs will continue to rise.
Government is not the solution to this problem, government IS the problem.
He never had mojo to begin with.
....that will pass muster...
Muster is 218 votes in the House and 60 or maybe 51 in the Senate. Apparently, NEITHER side can do that so nothing gets done. In some instances nothing is good, but not on health care. I hope you or a family member dont get really sick or you will quickly find out what a mess our system is currently.
Where are all those people “fainting” and nobama saying “get them some water”? he never was mesmerizing. it is just that about 25-30 percent of people are moonbats. remember, the mean IQ is 100. 50% of people are below that.
