I watch him everyday and it was great!
There is an huge irony here. Obama,Pelosi and Reid now have to fight off a liberal revolt over the personal mandates without the public plan, tax increases on unions, no anti-trust law. Obama ran against mandates in the Dem primary, Hillary proposed them, not popular with democrats (unless it’s slavery to the federal government ~ public plan/single payer.) .
Liberals see this as being sold into slavery to Health Insurance companies(this is the irony), some want to revolt and others are saying it’s more important to pass anything now and fix it later. There is a liberal civil war going on now and they have the holidays for things to boil over,
They see this compromise as another TARP, just more taxpayer money to the powerful corporations. And that the Democrat party sold them out. Obama sold them out. Keep asking liberals why the Health Insurance stocks are up. It’s killing them.
The left sees the government as Christians see God.
It can do no wrong.
Its plans are sovereign, infallible, and always work for good.
On the other hand, anything “private” is a work of their view of Satan.
It’s so funny!
The liberals thought they were getting the utopian communism they’ve dreamed of (cradle to grave entitlements) instead they got ‘Corporatism’!!
They just couldn’t be satified with the mixed economy (socialism/capitalism) we’ve always had since the 1930’s!
