Fox News Channel | 10/13/09

'... the insurance industry is making huge profits off peoples' need for healthcare... I don't want to say whether I will vote for the Baucus Bill or not but we have to reform healthcare...'

Folks, she's gonna vote for the Baucus Bill. She's also a coward.

Yes, but let’s believe the government numbers with sketchy details on the plan and a few days to do the analysis. All these numbers are being pulled out of people’s arse.

All you Maine Freepers please get out there mobilize and get her voted out of office. She has done far too much damage to this country. She is an awful person who needs to be sent home.

She’s an idiot. Price Waterhouse Cooper did the study. Is she saying that they lied?

The way I see it is that the Lawyers make too much money on the backs of the sick. Drugs are too high and doctors are stuck on the bottom.

“the insurance industry is making huge profits off peoples’ need for healthcare”

Oh, woe is me. They exploit peoples’ need for healthcare. Just like grocery stores make profits off peoples’ need for food, and energy companies make money because people need energy. There has to be another way! How can civilization go on with people providing goods and services only because they have an incentive to fo so. Madness, I say!

So, the insurance companies are making money. Big deal. They’re businesses. They’re supposed to make money.

Senator Snowe wants us to give more money to the government because she knows that’s the right thing to do.

Remember, it was Senator Snowe who described the Stimulus Bill as fiscally conservative after dropping the amount of it 80-billion dollars to 787-billion dollars.

What an idiot.

Olympia Snowe, Tower of Jello.

Meathead.

That's what I heard her say...in so many words. I was left thinking she is not very smart! She believes liars! LOL!

All we can hope for now is that 2 or 3 Dems vote against it.

It’s better to have a liberal Democrat in office than a liberal Republican.

'... the insurance industry is making huge profits off peoples' need for healthcare... '

I went to the pharmacist to get some diabetes meter test strips. They wanted $120 for 100 strips. They told me I could get them for $50 if I got a prescription from my doctor. I found the identical product for $40 on Amazon.

So tell me again, Olympia, who's profiteering?

Who cares? The Democrats are going to look pretty stupid getting a Snowe vote and calling it “bipartisan” while in the same breath claim how Republicans just want people to die by not voting for it.

They lie all of the time and could care less if they get caught or not.

Why doesn’t she just declare herself a RAT? Her charade isn’t interesting any more...

She is an idiot, and yes, she is saying they lied.

I’d love to see PWC answer that charge directly.

“Sen. Snowe: ‘I don’t believe the insurance industry’s numbers on healthcare’” and I don’t believe you are a Republican, but that’s beside the point. Vote wrong and we’ll find a way to defeat you even in the leftist stronghold you’re from.
