Here’s why the gov boys are after Insurance companies...TONS OF MONEY available to gut...same scam they play with social security. People put the money in - and the gov takes it out the same second...when boomers start needing more health care - dems will throw their hands up and be “oh so surprised” that the money’s not there...

Of course it’s that way. It’s been their plan all along. They don’t care about options that are offered up by the right. They want to ram it down our throats and hope it’s forgotten by the time 2010 roles around. And they also know that even if we take back the house and senate in 2010, Obama will veto any legislation that tries to correct the stuff they are going to put on us. This is going to get ugly down the road.

Exactly what the commies want! Couldn't be a better way of breaking the USA! They have elected the enemy!

A fail like a disastrous budget overrun that keeps it from actually happening.
++++++++++

We’re almost $12T in debt now, projections for $2.12T record this year, and they continue happily on...they don’t get the words ‘budget’ ‘overrun’ nor ‘disastrous’ and they certainly don’t understand them together, nor will they take any responsibility whatsoever for them.

They are the disaster that needs to be cleaned up.

They’re blowing smoke, it’s a trial balloon, the WH and Harry Reid will have a very difficult time coaxing moderate dems to vote for a dem only bill, namely: Max Baucus, Kent Conrad, Byron Dorgan, Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln, Evan Bayh, Ben Nelson, Bill Nelson, Mark Warner, Bob Casey, Claire McCaskill, Mark Pryor and Jim Webb. Then again, if they do pass a dem only bill the Repubs will win back the House and Senate next year on the promise of de-funding any “public option.”

Why don’t they just come out and say..”we are out of money for Medicare and Medicaid and we need you to come onto this public plan to pay for baby boomers!”

The bad insurance companies and the dems are two peas in a pod. What we want to do is hook up with the responsible insurers - and fight the corrupt dems. It's gotta be a twofer to work.

You are right. I am upset that after we gave them the candy store they “spent” it away and didn’t fight for the contract with America.

I can say that until I am blue in the face to my congressman and it will do absolutely no good. I live in a blue city area. The congressman won his seat after his grandmother, Julia Carson D-IN,died.

Don’t need to override any Obama veto. If we elect a Conservative House and Senate, they can just refuse to fund the health stuff.

They can refuse to fund lots of things, like NPR, The Department of Education, EPA, ... Just eliminate their budgets.

That is, of course, if we elect a real *Conservative* Congress and not a bunch of wishy-washies who cave to the media like last time.

Read the bill. The appropriations are there. The Constitutional question is whether one Congress can pass appropriations that bind a future Congress.

The plans should include MSA's with an emphasis on competition. I am relatively young and only go to the doctor once a year, I should pay for that out of pocket, but I use my insurance for routine visits. Catastrophic insurance should be the push. Not much discussion of that on the left side.

[[Top Democrats said Tuesday that their go-it-alone view was being shaped by what they saw as Republicans’ purposely strident tone against health care legislation during this month’s congressional recess, as well as remarks by leading Republicans that current proposals were flawed beyond repair.]]

BS!!! They are going to recraft the bill because WE THE PEOPLE are the ones who keep these congressmen and women in power- and they are afraid they will lose their jobs IF they do not craft a bill that WE THE PEOPLE want- They are NOT recraftign hte bill ‘because of GOP opposition’! that is a load of BS!

Obama and the Dems want to control your very life through what health care you can or cannot have, while making themselves exempt from the plan.

Do not let up. Give them hell.

In Washington a budget “overrun” is a trivial thing, indeed. They simply and automatically rasie the debt limit and prestigitate sufficient newly printed money to cover the problem and bill the debt to our 40X great grandchildren who will pay for it slaving in the sodium mines on Mars.

There are 69 members of the House and 1 Senator who are members of the Democratic Socialist of America. That is what is wrong with Congress — Progressive Caucus = Socialist.

The problem is....you and anyone on the right that points this out will be labeled a RACIST!!!

I am a racist I guess.....
