Ughh once again the Maverick RINO is going to “reach across the aisle” by bending over and taking whatever the Dems want to give.......
Oh boy. Just what we need. Will McCain NEVER EVER just GO AWAY? He has virtually destroyed the Republican Party.
Every one of these asshats needs to be put out of office, every single one.
Check this out.
it’s over. McCrap will do a flips across the aisle to sell the country out
There. Fixed it.
Glad they at least have a couple of doctors, but I don't know whether these doctors are fiscal conservatives or not, so I will hold the applause, and keep my powder dry.
Watch the polls in Arizona after Thursday....
I posted a while back that McCain was foaming at the bit, having to play conservative to get re-elected and not being able to reach across the aisle to his ole friends.
He just cannot stand not being the grand compromiser, the leader of the gang of bipartisan senators.
His showing up at this summit is about the same as his ceasing his campaign to rush back to Washington to help get the initial bailout accomplished.
NO DOCTORS (who are legislators) are invited! That should tell anyone all they need to know about this PHOTO OP!
“McCain will attend White House health summit”
And try to figger out some way to get the POTUS everything he wants.
“McCain will attend White House health summit”
Well, of course he will! Obama needs all the help he can get. Not surprising McConnell picked him. You won’t find McConnell EVER picking a conservative, like Inhofe from the senate, to represent us. McConnell is another one who should have been gone long ago and will help usher in amnesty.
“The Arizona Republican is not known as a health-care expert.”
That doesn’t stop him from introducing ridiculous legislation like this one:
McCain strikes another blow to freedom! Legislation alert!

Oh God, this guy is a danger, Please Lord, save us from this old fool.
It is odd how quickly we are accepting the status quo here.
pardon me, I have to puke up my dinner.
SET THEIR LOCAL AND DC LINES ON FIRE!

Rename, repackage, rewrite it a tad smaller, and sell another pig in a poke.
Tennessee has joined several other states in trying to pass a Health Care Freedom Act. NO COLAs for granny, retired Military or retired fed employees. BIG NEW fees for Tricare for Life retired over 65 Military's secondary health ins. (DOD bill already passed, delayed but goes into effect 2011)

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.)

Congress plans to block Tricare fee increases
http://www.armytimes.com/news/2009/10/military_tricarefees_blocked_100709w
By Rick Maze - Staff writer, Oct 7, 2009
Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.
Snip
The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.
Snip
Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.
“President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees” in fiscal 2010, Matz said. “We took them at their word, and I can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.
Bambi doesn't keep his promises...so buyer beware

Call it coincidence or bad timing, but many physicians in Tennessee began taking a 14 percent cut for seeing TennCare patients on the same day Gov. Phil Bredesen announced deep cuts in health care spending.

Can anyone name something that McCain has done since Obama was elected that has disappointed them? As far as I can tell, McCain has been one of the most stridently opposed to Obama’s agenda. If I’m wrong, someone tell me otherwise.
They are idiots to even go.
