Her cold fury was palpable, to say the least.

This nation has turned into a bunch of damn sheep who deserve all the punishment they get.

Earl Butz was right but he didn’t go far enough. He needed to expand the group he was talking about to include most people who live in this country.... they want only three things — satisfying sex, loose shoes and a warm bathroom — desires that Mr. Butz listed in obscene and scatological terms.” Add their damn xbox, smart phone and big screen.

The sheeple in this country make me ill, the takers and obastard toadies make me vomit.

Another example of people who were forced to exchange healthcare for low quality insurance.

It was brilliant to schedule this hearing on the day of the bullshit CIA hearings. Reupgnicants are so stupid and clueless.

This hearing had already been scheduled.

It is not coincidence, however, that the Democrats in the Senate chose this particular week to release that report, however, to grab the headlines away from being about Obamacare.

I think Gruber is all for show like Big Brother put on a show over “Goldstein” in “1984”.....

The GOPe is putting on emotional political theater instead of taking any meaningful action to reverse Obamacare.

The big money special interests that support the GOPe wanted Obamacare to fill their coffers with money from those higher health insurance premiums for those whose coverage was cancelled and the uninsured being forced to buy the new more expensive coverage as well.

FDR imposed Social Security on us with a promise of retirement pay at 65 - when the average life span was 59. Fast forward and Social Security is near (or at) bankruptcy because people are living longer and the government has to actually pay out money.

Obvious answer, DeathCare and kill off the people over 65. Viola, Social Security is fixed. And we have another tax.

Prediction: In ten years, they’ll start taxing air to pay for DeathCare.

I am proud of Rep Lummus NOT allowing Tavenner to respond.

What would have come out of that mouth would have been insincere platitudes, phony indignation or just more Obama lies, frankly.

When you soundly rebuke someone, there is no need to hear their side of the story.

He got a college degree, worked in social service (or something) and is now a waiter at age 33, pursuing his dream

I'd be willing to bet he underclaims his tips and keeps his earned income reported to a minimum. Even single, low paying jobs can qualify a person for EITC, SNAP, etc.

“The GOPe is putting on emotional political theater instead of taking any meaningful action to reverse Obamacare.”

You are correct. If the GOPe really cared about eliminating Obamacare it would happen. Every GOP pundit and advisor would be talking about it. There would be a people’s march on Washington scheduled after the first of the year. Protest would be organized at the offices of potential Democrat defectors. Boehner and McConnell would be strong arming or passing pork out to potential Democrat defectors on a veto vote. They have the numbers to pass repeal and the have the power to pull enough Democrats, afraid of voters in 2016, to override a veto.

As you said, the big monied interests that fund the party want Obamacare.

when I saw Ms Tavenner sitting at the table my first thought was that she was chic...... had the work on her face done

Then it came....... she bought one of Joan Rivers’ used face lifts

She told her story very well. I had no idea where she was going when she started to speak. What a nightmare! Most of her remarks were directed at that woman Tavenner or whatever her name was - the Medicaid/Medicare robot.
