I’m not so sure about that because the democrates are quick to overlook offensives they commit no matter who gets hammered in the process, as well as the fickle public. All it would take is another slick tongued Democrate to move the public. Bo evidences this. Additionally the kids who vote now are followers...few with any mind of reason themselves when it comes to politics...the educational system has screwed their minds up badly.They’ll fall in line with what’s popular.

Those kids are one's who are going to be paying for Obama's spending for the rest of their lives.

I have read many of them are already very disillusioned with him.

He won't have that kind of support again.

I hope you are right..I really do. Because this whole country is going to take the fall for along time if this goes thru..and I think it will. Short of God un-twisting things. Wonder what the Republicans will have to say tomorrow?

Not necessarily that’s where that (S) nonesense can come into play...which doesn’t require a vote.

The thing they have posted is meaningless and worthless unless you want to see insane minds at work and whether ot not *and should be *or, or *and should be *”and,” or whether there ought be a semicolon or a comma.
It is an excercise in making something that should be easily understood as UNunderstandable as they possibly could. It isn’t what the bill actually is. There isn’t even a date on it. They threw it up there as a distraction. The Public Option is mentioned in the index so many times it is ridiculous.
To understand this “thing” they have up there, you have to read all the rules and regs of medicare, (fed,) medicaid, (state,) TriCare, Social Security, etc.
What this says they have chosen to do, is add “paragraphs” to already passed or old legislation that will completely change it into something else altogether.
This is infuriating.

The majority of those “reforms” are already mentioned in many state medicare programs with points awarded to those who partake of them.

scuse the typos. I am just shaking with anger here.
ot=or
excercise=exercise

These demons should be exorcized from the capital and never, never allowed to return. I have never seen such a grand mal convulsion of arrogance/ignorance/stupidity/insanity/ on parade as I have just read.
Some of their draft proposals would literally doom people, those who are bedridden and in need of medical devices and home care, for example.
It is just amazing.

Maybe I’m confused here, but the Senate version does not contain student loans, and the Senate has not acted on nor can pass the student loan takeover with 60 votes, which is why the House has included it... For the Sebate to pass via reconcilliation with only 50+ votes.

But... The Senate cannot vote on any reconcilliation without it already being signed into law first. And the House bill cannot be signed into law with part of it (student loan takeover) not being passed by the Senate... Which they cannot pass through reconcilliation until the president signs it into law.

So like I said, perhaps I confused here, but it looks like the inclusion of the student loan takeover, the Democrats have created a Catch-22 they cannot get around.

Hi, Hi, Hi, Gramma! If I could manage to get out of here for a day or two, I would be there, (in DC,) with flags, whistles, and bells on. I will surely be there in spirit and ON the phone, fax, and email squadron until this thing is d.e.d. ded!

This little gem really peeves me off, when I was searching for any answers for assistance for breast cancer I found more websites devoted to colored and hispanic assistance(and it didn’t matter if the hispanics were illegal either) but nothing for WASPS! This is BS just like all the Dems trying to shove this down the throats of Americans! Insurance for me as a type 1 diabetic would cost $800 per month with an $8,000 deductible, absolutely impossible to acheive and the Feds didn’t give a damn about HIPPA in my case either! They speak with forked tongues and then do whatever the hell they please!

“America’s Affordable Health Choices Act”

Three big lies, right in the title: it’s not America’s, it’s not affordable, and it is designed to get rid of choices.
____________________________________

Nice find. Liberals are exceptional LIARS. Every unconstitutional program they dream up comes nicely packaged with a dishonest title to market it to the unwashed masses:

1. “Affirmative Action” - nothing “affirmative” about it. It’s state-sanctioned racism.

2. “Affordable Housing Programs” - Actually causes unaffordable housing for those on the fringe of affordability.

3. And now this: “America’s Affordable Health Choices Act”

It’s truly laughable... but not really because it’s coming to a neighborhood near you.
