I completely agree: there probably won’t be a public option.
While I like that result, like you I don’t think that’s the whole enchilada.
Obama will get his “Health Care Commissions” and they pose just as great a threat. They will control the flow of “official findings and data”...i.e., disinformation. And they’ll create a huge bureaucracy tasked with “filling in the details”. They’ll pretty much have a free field to convince the public of the need for the public plan.
So, we may defeat them on the public plan now, but Obama is setting it up to win down the road.
Thank Sarah Palin for calling the health commission what it really is.....a DEATH COMMISSION.
