- I think it's time for some deep breaths here. I want to cover the uninsured too. We're a lot closer to that then it was back in 1994. -- nm - Inigo Aug 16, 12:34 3
  - At the moment, we're none closer. Not until a bill passes. - ty97 Aug 16, 12:37
  - It's more than just covering the uninsured, that's for darn sure. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 16, 12:34 1
    - That's the piece that's going away, if the B2 article is true. -- nm - Inigo Aug 16, 12:36
- I have never seen a party that is so strong, look so pathetically weak. -- nm - Redmond Aug 16, 12:32
- Nader in 2012! -- nm - BB Aug 16, 12:32 1
  - more or less, yep. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 16, 12:33
Any bill in the best interests of the people will always be extraordinarily difficult to pass. Western governance has been hijacked by special - Loyola Aug 16, 11:42 13
- if only there had been a candidate who promised to change the way things were done in Washington and to put people above the special interests -- nm - farmer ted Aug 16, 11:57 12
  - If only the US were a dictatorship. -- nm - ty97 Aug 16, 11:59 11
    - if George Bush could get whatever he wanted done with even less votes in the Senate, Obama has no excuses -- nm - farmer ted Aug 16, 12:03 9
      - umm, didnt bush have control of the senate during most of his 1st term? -- nm - tRuMaN Aug 16, 12:55
      - The reality is that Obama isn't the one stalling this legislation. - ty97 Aug 16, 12:10 7
        
        i. don't. care. it's called leadership. it's his party. fucking lead it instead of letting two senators from Montana and North Dakota call the tune - farmer ted Aug 16, 12:12 6
        
        Good, take issue with poor leadership on the issue. I do too. - ty97 Aug 16, 12:15 5
        
        they go hand in hand. the senators who want to kill the public option are bought and sold by the health care industry. so either Obama let's them - farmer ted Aug 16, 12:18 4
        
        That makes no sense. - ty97 Aug 16, 12:20 3
        
        there are myriad things a president can do to put the squeeze on congressmen to get legislation passed - farmer ted Aug 16, 12:23 2
        
        But how do you know that? - ty97 Aug 16, 12:32 1
        
        people will blame whoever they want to blame, there's no point in trying to change views at this point -- nm - GWAA Aug 16, 14:48
    - Pink triangle to go with your death panel, sir? -- nm - CovingtonCat Aug 16, 12:03
Uh... what? -- nm - nubby, Astronauts champion Aug 16, 11:38
