Change the bottle; keep the wine. Democrats lie.
“Can we say “INCREMENTALISM?”
Can we say “Look for devils in the details?”
Can we say “Desperation calls for a win by any definition?”
CAN WE SAY CO-OPs?
(unless they’ve already re-named such a plan....and so, yes, the devil IS in the details!)
Mine are a lost cause, all Dems. Like I said, schumer, gillibrand, tonko. I will be actively supporting whoever runs against them.
We need to appeal to everyone, Republicans, Democrats, Independents...it’s all of us against obama’s communist/socialist admin....whose side are they on?”
I would add that, in addition to those you’ve listed (legislators), those of us ‘peons’ that are INFORMED need to take the TRUTH to the generally UNINFORMED public. If Glenn Beck is “preaching to the choir”, then, IMO, it’s our responsibility (and the least we can do) to spread the word.
Not sure if you saw this yet, your “Gathering Storm” pic is on Lucianne.com’s homepage tonight!
Now, it will not pass.
Even without the option, there is still no votes for it pass. He has abandoned the hardcore lefties.
Yes, its called a ‘’co-op ‘’ or ‘’COMMUNIST OPTION’’. That will eventually morph into a ‘’Single Payer’’ that will soon become ‘’ Univeral ‘’ health care for all including illegal aliens,,,,,,you see its all basically the same thing to me ‘’A CRAP BILL’’! KILL THE BILL!!!
These lying jerks in congress pull it off a shelf and say "lookie here! A healthcare bill! America wants this!"
You know and I know HR3200 eliminates HSAs exactly on the page you referenced.
What a weasel statement that means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
Wow, no wonder all of his Illinois State Senate records are “lost”, it would prove how much of a radical he really was!
If the Dem maggots need something to do then they can work on REAL tort reform.
Gov regulated Co-ops.
ØBama “I want you to argue with them and get in their face”
Weather Underground Bill Ayers, “over throwing the Capitalist System, and put in something more humane”
Weather Underground Mark Rudd, “move off-campus and organize among the off-campus youth”
Weather Underground Mark Rudd, “Gut Check - challenge each other to be more violent”
Bernadine Dohrn, “holding my nose and going through with surrender”
Bernadine Dohrn “I remain committed to the struggle ahead”
Bernadine Dohrn “I am not committed to non-violence in any way”
Co-ops, I believe.
What we need is a competitive health insurance market, such as the ability to buy insurance over state lines. We need real tort reform, meaning real limits on punitive damages. Third, ERs need to start charging all comers without private insurance $100 for non-emergency visits, such as when little Juan has the sniffles or Jose stubbed his toe. If the illegals and the Medi-caid patients had to pay $100 for an ER visit for non-life threatening issues, those ERs would thin out to about half the demand overnight. Also, insurance companies need to lighten up on the pre-existing conditions denials of care. Finally, Medi-caid and Medi-care fraud should become a priority investigated by REAL investigators who know what they’re doing. The savings could be used by Medi-caid and Medi-care to pay a larger fee for services rather than the pittance the providers get now, which creates a loss passed on to paying customers. A combination of those few changes would probably cut costs by a minimum of a third in short order. With lower costs, more people would buy insurance.
Great idea. Simple, direct, effective.
Exactly. And if the Republicans still aren't bi-partisan after all we've done to accommodate them then we're clearly justified in passing this bill for the American people without their interference.
"I’m not going to put a date on any of this,” Axelrod said. “But I think it’s fairly obvious that we’re not in the second inning. We’re not in the fourth inning. We’re in the eighth or ninth inning here, and so there’s not a lot of time to waste.”
More like "rained out", if you ask me.
......synthesize and harmonize........
