Worst thing that Mitt did here. He’ll pay for it now.

" Hopefully he’s sincere "

You need to think about that real hard, do you trust Mitt on his word ?
My gut instinct, I don't trust Mitt at all.
I guess you don't know about his sleaze/gutter politics ? in how his campaign put out those false stories that Fred was going to drop out after Iowa ? that cost Fred some votes in Iowa, and possibly Wyoming and NH.

"Let’s run a candidate that’s against doing anything about healthcare."

I am sure the thousands of pre-born persons who will be murdered annually for a mere $50.00 would like to dispute your claim of this being "healthcare".

So our choices are do nothing and let the greatest health care system in the world do it’s job for the privately insured who work for a living and those who get care via charity or bring on the first steps towards socialized medicine into play?

Hum, I can see why you support Mitt, but not why you are on Free Republic. Give Michael Moore's fat a$$ a hug for me will ya....

That fake leak stinks of Ed Rollins. He knew Thompson was a real threat to a very possible second place spot in Iowa. He also knows SC is coming up. Huckabee NEEDED to seal the deal in Iowa or his campaign would’ve been in shambles.

"I know. Let’s run a candidate that’s against doing anything about healthcare. That sounds like a winner! /s"

Slippery slope scare tactics . With comments like that , it's no wonder you support Liberal Flip Romney .

A press release is news. How do you think all these lazy worthless so called journalists get their garbage? They just sit around the bar bragging about their lame blogs and wait for the fax machine to go off. Just so happens they do not want to run any of Fred's, well here is one site that will.

I don’t think Rollins was behind the Fred smear .

I do think Fred has a pretty good idea which campaign was behind it .

-—No one is going to refuse you at a hospital.-—

Until the hospital closes, because of bankruptsy.

-—People used to actually have savings accounts to pay for whatever else.-—

Until the charges cleaned them out.

This is a big issue that can’t be wished away. I have medical and dental care through where I work. It still cost an arm and a leg. :^) Many are not so fortunate, and it’s not just their misfortune. It’s ours. We pay higher premiums because so many are not covered. Then we pay higher taxes to pay for their care.

But, heh, maybe if we ignore it, it’ll go away!

The government is already doing lots about health care. If they stopped everything they were doing to control it, it would get much less expensive and the quality would improve, just like every product and service that operates in a free market environment. That's kind of hard for socialists to understand.

What's phony about the story?

Did Mitt use his line-item veto on the $50 abortion co-pay?

Did Mitt use his line-item veto on putting the Planned Parenthood representative on the board?

Hello, did we not watch the debate last night. Fred called for more options where one should be able to buy their healthcare insurance from whoever the HELL they want.

I call that a BIG GIGANTIC SOLUTION...
