DURHAM, N.C. — Uninsured Triangle residents said Monday that they eagerly await the overhaul of the nation's health care system. "It's just going to be like Christmas," said DeCarlo Flythe, who lost health coverage for his family when he was laid off almost three years ago. "It's going to be great. You know, no worries (about) the bills. We are going to go ahead and pay our co-pay and be alright."

Recd phone call today from patient in one of my doctor client offices - said he wanted to change his appt to end of week because he has new insurance and by then BO will have signed the bill and he won’t have pre-existing any more. BTW, the patient works for one of the largest law firms in the city!

My favorite: "Honk if you're easily influenced"

Today's headlines, "Energizer Bunny Arrested! Charged with Battery!"

Yeah and Obama’s gonna pay for the gas in my car that’s gonna get me to the hospital.

Hey, my car has over 300,000 miles on it. I could use a new car...

It's probably sitting right there, next to the free gas.

“Better not get fired. In this state you can’t be fired and draw unemployment. It has to be either a layoff or ‘quit for cause’, and the latter takes certain very specific criteria. I believe it is much the same elsewhere.”

Yeah, your right, I think I meant “laid off”. Companies are cutting staff right and left, just be a mediocre employee (not bad so you end up fired for cause) and your likely to get “laid off” and find yourself on the government gravy train.

DeCarlo Flythe would have been perfectly at home in FDRs America:

Big Rock Candy Mountain

One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fire was burning
Down the track came a hobo hiking and he said boys I'm not turning
I'm headin for a land that's far away beside the crystal fountains
So come with me we'll go and see the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains there's a land that's fair and bright
Where the handouts grow on bushes and you sleep out every night
Where the boxcars are all empty and the sun shines every day
On the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees
Where the lemonade springs where the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains all the cops have wooden legs
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth and the hens lay soft boiled eggs
The farmer's trees are full of fruit and the barns are full of hay
Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow
Where the rain don't fall and the wind don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains you never change your socks
And the little streams of alcohol come a-trickling down the rocks
The brakemen have to tip their hats and the railroad bulls are blind
There's a lake of stew and of whiskey too
You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains the jails are made of tin
And you can walk right out again as soon as you are in
There ain't no short handled shovels, no axes saws or picks
I'm a goin to stay where you sleep all day
Where they hung the jerk that invented work
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

I'll see you all this coming fall in the Big Rock Candy Mountains

Total morons! The Demoncrats said 2 people die every 15 minutes because they have no health insurance...but then proceed to delay that insurance for 8 years.

Since I live in North Carolina, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to any and all who have read this , that there is anyone this STUPID living in the Old North State. ps I got my post card from the census today saying “ you should have received your census form by now, it is very IMPORTANT that you have filled this out”.. My first thought.”.consume fecal material and die.”...... or words to that effect...

I can’t help but laugh... until I remember Obama is ripping flesh out of my hide in order to feed this idiot’s fantasies.

PPOs, HMOs, but the real culprit is anything the government has touched. Medicare and Medicaid have wreaked havoc on pricing.

Love bass. Bring it over. I’ll fry up a bunch of hush puppies. What kind of beer do you drink?

LOL, this guy needs to find the woman who was so excited about Obama getting elected because he was going to pay her mortgage and buy her gas. Ask her how that worked out.

I made an appointment with my boss tomorrow, to ask for my $3000 raise that Obama promised I’d get if we passed the bill.

Wait till he discovers that he got coal in his stocking.

At least he'll be able to heat something for a short while.
