Obamacare -- worse than nothing
Powerline ^ | 8/16/09 | Paul

According to a Rasmussen survey released today, only 35 percent of Americans believe that passage of the bill "currently working its way through Congress" would be better than not passing any health care legislation this year. 54 percent of Americans disagree, believing that it would be better to pass no bill.

The poll question is a bit misleading because there is no single bill working its way through Congress at this time. However, the results show pretty clearly that the Democrats are losing the health care debate.

Democratic voters, of course, are still behind their party on this issue, though not overwhelmingly - 60 percent of Dems favor passing the legislation in Congress over doing nothing. But among independents, the split is 23 percent for and 66 percent against.

So funny! since I had a pollster call me the other day and asked the open ended question “what is the most important issue in America today, in your opinion?”

To which I replied “STOPPING HEALTH CARE REFORM” the guy actually stammered after I said that. He wasn't sure where to go from there!

ROFL

Is there one provision or one section of HR3200 that is worth the paper it's printed on?

Because the Bozos in the Clown Congress may feel the need to pass something, anything in order to claim victory. Is there anything worth warm spit?
