Why does No One ever emphasize that this massive legislatio was passed withou a single public hearing?

Of course there should have been months of hearings with doctors, patients, hospital administrators, insurers, pharmeceutical reps, etc.

You mean those “doctors” at Odumbo’s presscon were not really ‘doctors’?

Some thanks go to Tom Daschle and his health care book. Trying to avoid the "mistake" of public hearings learned from Hillary!care, that book made the suggestion that to get it passed, it had to be rammed thru.

Wow. If Conrad is going public with this type of language, one only wonders what is said in private.

It really is unbelievable. But especially annoying is that the "Republican" politicians, although uniformly voting against it, have not expressed the outrage, the total insult this thing is, to the public, even now. As if they are going to hold their finger in the wind before saying anything.

The revelation is they either are totally stupid, (given that many many here on FR repeatedly saw and clarified what a logically sinister act this was), OR, they are self-serving unprincipled scum who respect not at all the dignity (and intelligence) of the citizens they serve but only their own careers.

Newt Gringrich is about the only politician I have heard go vocal on the juvenility of the Bill and those who passed it.

This is why we consistently advocate for a third party; the "Republicans" are a self-serving political establishment little different than the Democrats. I have an old conservative friend who often restates to me, "at least I know what the Democrats stand for."

Thus the Tea Party.
