From the DUmp thread on today's news that the White House is ready to dump the "public option". Here's just a few tasty morsels:

Depressing. Our leaders have sold us out.

What happened to Presidents who said "The Buck Stops Here" and acted accordingly?

Make no mistake about it. Obama has sold us out. He's going to force everyone into Romneycare where you buy junk policies that wont cover doodley-squat. And the beancounters will be able to deny even more care. Meanwhile, the racketeering CEO's will get to double their bloated salaries. This is just more corporate welfare.

So much for "Taking On The Private Interests".

i think the idea is they lie like a rug about what he wants and then pass a sham bill quickly

Baucus' bill is the one Obama will sign...More corporate welfare for the pimping CEOs while the rest of us get f***ed even more

Yes, they have sold us out. So public option, just a weak co-op as yet another band aid that won't do s***. Obama said he was for change. We now see that's all we'll have left in our pockets after he forces Romneycare down out throats.

and the Bait and Switch continues

Bribing criminal scumbags is what he calls reform

the royal scam on the american public is in high gear baby-pedal to the metal

This is an exrememly sad depelopment

We already elected an overwhelmingly Democratic House, 60 Senators and the President. What the f--k more do we have to do?

But at least 20 of the Dem Senators are traitors and appeasers including the "leader".

No more donating to the DNC

Get ready for a GOP Congress in 2010. It's a rerun of Clinton all over again

Embarrassed to say that I totally believed him

Stick a fork in health care reform. It's dead. We're going to have to wait another 15-20 years before we can try (and fail) again

You have got to be f***ing kidding me

he is already on track to be a one term President. He will either lose the nomination or the election. And no, I am not one who thought he was going to lose in the past. I donated my legal limit to him in Decedmber 2007 and then went over every time McCain's numbers went up. But I do not intend to vote for Obama again, not in a primary anyway

He also said he would repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"

The terrorists won. I have said this before, but it bears repeating - Rove was right when he said that Dems are soft on terrorists. He said that after we were attacked on 9/11 the Dems would have sought counseling for the terrorists. Well, terrorists attacked us again on the health care debate, and guess what we did? It's over. I am going to redouble my efforts to find a job in a civilized country. THere is no one here to support any more.

Sigh it was nice while it lasted...guess I'll be staying home next election...F*** those blue dog inbreds...

Get ready for Speaker Boner, Majority Leader Frog Face, and President Palin in 2013The Dems are not getting any more money, volunteer time, or even votes from me. I've been voting Dem since 1978, and it's over.

unf***ing believable!!!! I AM NOT PLEASED AT ALL!!!

This bulls*** "compromise" is infuriating!

I'm not okay with it and that's not why I voted for him, talk about failure!

CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN?????????????????????????

We're screwed. We'll end up with a bad government program, either a co-op or public option, which will prove what the Republicans have been saying all along, government is the problem, not the solution. We are allowing the Republicans to dominate the discussion and we will deserve what we get.

Read them all at your Sunday leisure:

Thank you and the DUers for brightening my day.

After read through a buch of the post over there I wonder if it's to late for me to get the hemlock concession over on DU?

OMG. They sound like Freepers.

Their problem, though, is that although they're upset with the health care bill, they're still under the deluded impression that if only the government could become ALL POWERFUL, it would be able to solve all the problems.

Most of us believe that the more government gets involved, the less efficient and the less effective health care becomes.
