Colin Powell Pitches Single-Payer Health Care in US

Do these idiots stop to think that by going with a single payer scheme you put an entire industry out of business, over night. Every one who works in health insurance and ancillary business - kaput.

> Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has waded into the health care debate with a broad endorsement of the kind of universal health plan found in Europe, Canada and South Korea... a “single-payer” system, in which the government pays for the costs of health care. Some [other] Democrats who strongly advocated for, and failed to get, a single-payer system in the 2010 Affordable Care Act, still believe the current law doesn’t go far enough to reform the US health system.

Colon Bowell gave wholehearted racist support for Zero — at least twice. And he’s making an early move in his run for the POTUS. He’ll bring lots of Demwit and fence-sitter voters into the “big tent”, don’t say you weren’t warned. Thanks markomalley.

Do you think that he made that up on his own? What’s your point?

[lgjhn23]

And now we get to hear from the lower section of “the bowel”.

[DoughtyOne]

And now a word from Colin Bowel.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Well he’s right about one thing. He’s no expert on Health care so why is he wading in?

After using Republicans to advance his career for years, I’m glad this odious opportunist has finally come out of the closet.

(I don’t see anyone cheering him on on FR anymore.)

Guess they figure they’ve got nothing to lose so they’re just going to dive into single-payer. Pray they don’t succeed.

"I am not an expert in health care, or Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act, or however you choose to describe it, but I do know this: I am going to stump for Obama yet again, because I missed hearing the sound of my own voice in the news.

Seriously, dude. Go away already. Thank you sincerely for your service, but stop being a political shill and go away.

[BerryDingle]

And the same guy who “admitted” he voted for Obama.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Too bad General Powell wasn’t there when we liberated Dachau and Auschwitz so he could see what a Holocaust is and learn from it. Col. Powell hasn’t learned that Liberalism is a mental disease and he wasn’t inoculated.

[entropy12]

Good thing Powell did not run for Prez.

[Vaquero]

Colon rectum, mr AfirmativeAction needs to switch parties

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

IT BEGINS...

Obamacare was designed to set the insurance companies up for failure via a phony "marketplace" so that the elites can pitch single-payer down the road.

But Obamacare failed earlier than planned...so now we get to see "former Republicans" and "retired military personnel" pitch single-payer to the masses.

The media will now do their part. I saw this coming as soon as Obamacare was first born, I knew it would lead to single-payer inevitably.

Has Colin left the GOP yet; I read that Alma was furious that he joined some years back.

[VeniVidiVici]

A four-star general happy with his healthcare. Now, gee, there’s a surprise.

[Theodore R.]

Colin was just mimicking Julie Nixon Eisenhower, the Ron-Nancy Reagan children, and Christopher Buckley.

[Theodore R.]

Reagan and the first Bush put Colin on the map. He is a poster boy for ingratitude.

Who cares what Colon Pile has to say about anything?
