Blue Cross Anthem…failed to fool the public this time around! These dirty bastards need to be hung with piano wire! ….This company is running scared of health care reform! and robbing us of everything until health reform comes to the rescue.

The hikes are …
The hikes are partially because for every paying customer there are 3 that don’t feel that they should pay, and are entitled to free health care. i work in an Er and see at least half the patients are not in need of emergency care, have no intention of paying. the dentists have it right.. you pay for services..

And I am for …
And I am for reconciliation. The same methods that Republicans have used far more than that of Democrats. If the obstructionists are going to allow more people to die because they lack insurance, then them.
As far as Global Warming, I support the thing in which 90% of scientists fully agree on, including the IPCC.

RW, The term “global warming” needs to be changed to “polar warming”. I live in the upper mid-west, and trust me. there has not been anything “warm” about the past decade; Cooler summers, brutal winters, and the la ninja has become as rare as an infertile, single young black woman.

Watching the so called ‘health care summit”…and the GOP is making the poster boy for negro stupidity eat his own by quoting his own words to him when he was in the Senate opposing ‘reconciliation ‘ and favoring it now…actually reading parts of their health care plan to show that Barokeydoke was lying his off when he said they had no plan…heh…gotta love it

@RWDixon8r Pelosi …
@RWDixon8r Pelosi and Reid have already let it be known they intend to pass ObozoCare by ‘reconciliation’ without GOP support and the voters be damned….forget that little piece of fiction by anAL GOREtentive….if you want to know what really controls the earth’s climate on a long term basis,google Milankovitch Variations…they will show you just how ignorant and clueless he really is about climate

So President Obama …
So President Obama opening the doors for bipartisan efforts, debates, and questioning is not “bipartisan”? Seriously? And do you,
Armigerous, seriously believe that the Democrats want to “ram healthcare reform through?” It sounds logical, but most actually want to negotiate, but that’s impossible with the party of no.
If I was in charge, I would have pushed for reform far more than Obama, and get more Progressive things in there.

Obama is killing …
Obama is killing his own party over his radical views! SSI is broke! Medicare is broke! Medicaid is broke! Now you want to let them destroy the best system for delivering medical care in the world—free enterprize. no! Oh and if you give up your entitlments I will gladly give up mine!

Got to thinking …
Got to thinking about my comments on Cheney. Actually, Joe Potato wouldn’t have gotten that treatment free of charge after his first heart attack. The second one would have cost him his home, his job, his savings, and probably his family. Which would have more than likely led to his death from a heart attack. No Problem, Joe Potato just reduced the population. He isn’t my neighbor, he isn’t my friend, he isn’t my responsibility. His health care premiums bought the CEO a 40 room mansion.

No. We do need a gpvernment option. In that case let’s stop social security, medicare, and medicaid now, today. These scare tactics are not working anymore by the GOP liars. The GOP liars just don’t want to reform, because when the Health Care reform passes. Republicans liars will loose millions campaign contributions. Like I’ve always said. The GOP has not praticed fair equality for all since 1865.

Bipartisanship …
Bipartisanship means twice as bad! No Government option!

Actually, 2xtream, …
Actually, 2xtream, that part of the Health Care bill has been there since the beginning. Many members of the house & the Senate proposed just what you were saying. President Obama brought it up during his campaign. Steelman, there are Democrats from Conservative States. They fear for their jobs because the Neo-cons in those states are just like every other neo-con in this country. They suffer from one issue-itis and look through a hole wearing blinders. The big picture is out of their reach.

I am glad to hear …
I am glad to hear that VP Cheney is doing Okay. I also want to thank him for pointing out the need for Health Care Reform in America. He has had 5, count them FIVE, heart attacks. Can you imagine if he was Joe Potato, factory worker, or small business man. “Hello, this is BC/BS, how can I help you”. Joe, “I’m looking for health care. I have had 5 heart attacks and heart proceedures”. Hello, Hello, Hello! Dang they hung up”. Cheney loves his Government Run Health Care at Taxpayer Expense!

Hey O’DUMBO… …
Hey O’DUMBO… America will take the health care system you purpose if you abolish the health care you politicians have… We say you drop your health care and make it mandatory that ALL AMERICANS INCLUDING YOU OBAMA WILL HAVE TO USE THE SAME SYSTEM!!!! Only at that point will I entertain even looking at any new health care bill !!!!!!
You like the Health Care Bill so much… Then ALL AMERICANS need to be in the same screwed up system you love so much.!!!

There you go again …
There you go again making me feel sorry for you. There is no such thing as bipartisanship. Libs had super majority, had being the key phrase. They did not need the GOP for any bill they wanted to pass.
