No different then what Germany did to the jews. I watched a history channel production that strong alluded that Hitler got some of his ideas of mass murder from Turkey.
No difference. < :-)

sf2k, don't you understand. When the republicans get upset they get ugly.
But what's even better is when they get all fired up and then they lose. Kinda like when Obama was elected. This is one of those moments.
Barack Obama hasn't backed down from the republican leadership. He hasn't given his health care proposal to the trash man and grabbed a blank piece of clean paper to start all over.
Oh how the republican leadership swears they will repeal this bill. But once it passes and the American people have a piece of health care that they never had before, they won't give it up.
Yep, just like when the republicans passed the tax breaks and the Rx Plan, use reconciliation and pass it. < :-)

Hello republicans and friends. I can't wait for the health care reform bill to get voted on. I keep hearing republicans spouting "No Body wants this." Wrong. I want it. Most everybody I speak to wants it.
So as far as your posting how nobody wants this. I'll just repeat I want it; along with millions of other people. < :-)

I'm not saying everybody wants it, just I keep hearing from republican posters and republican politicians that nobody wants this bill.
I'm just clarifying that not everybody is against it. <:-)

usaexpat, that's what the republicans want you to believe. But it also sounds like the republicans don't keep in touch with reality. You keep hearing, "Nobody wants this!!", from the republicans. Well I know for a fact people everywhere that want health care protection.
The republicans are throwing out all kinds of garbage to roadblocks to block this from passing.
So the democrats just have to continue their mission and vote in health care reform. < :-)

I go to the local Community Center just about everyday, play a little pool, swim, etc. I talk to people mostly 50 years old and older. And I must go on a qualify this by saying that most of these guys I talk to are well off and retired, also.
Everybody I talk to are looking forward to this health reform passing. < :-)

It's called "Sick Bay"
I'm not worried about what the republicans will gain in congress. I think there are a lot more democrats that would have to worry about their jobs if they don't vote for it.
I also think that there are republicans that will lose their jobs because not all republicans are against this health care reform.
I guess we're going to find out. < :-)

It to keep the republicans from going in late at night and making changes to anything they been working on. Republicans can't be trusted.
I don't know about the original three proposals, but I saure saw last Thursday and that was probably the best you could ask for.
I don't think we're first in medicine. < :-)

Molenir, you'll have to show me a link on the 10 Million being taken care of in the republican package. I've never seen it.
The CBO has already discounted your numbers. The CBO has costed the Obama plan as being the most efficient.
Those numbers are below me. I don't think that over 16,000+ a year is something to sluff off. We see bills passed routinely that effect much fewer numbers and they are justified so so strongly. But you could care less for the 16,000+ that would die without health care protection.
I so hope this passes by reconciliation. < :-)

Molenir, I didn't see a lot of republicans standing up for Bunning either. Did they lose their courage? Were that just letting Bunning get treated like Lott? a (Republicans were tired of Lott and allowed him to sink alone.) That's how theyre treating Bunning, also.
I'm from KS. Like that makes a difference.
If I worked with you, I'd tell you to sit down and get back to work. I don't have to hear politics in the work area. Outside work, okay...I choose to talk politics, in work...I'm working and you need to be working also. "My Personal opinion."
Death panels were never a part of the health care reform package, even though Palin dreamed that one up. But under the republican health care bill you'll need them.
The republican plan covers 3 million people. The democratic plan covers 30 million. That's 27 million not covered.
Democratic Plan covers 30 Million.
Republican Plan covers 3 Million. 1/10 of the Democratic Plan.
A difference of 27 Million. The republicans are willing to not cover 27 million and allow them to fend for themselves.
http://www.emaxhealth.com/72/21571.html
Even based on these low figures, the republicans are willing to let 16,200 to 19,800 people die from illnesses instead of covering the difference between their 3 million plan and the democrats 30 million plan.
Reconciliation won't pass the whole bill, but it'll make substantive changes to the way things are done now. < :-)

Molenir, what are the republicans going to say when it passes and then they want to roll back health care reforms? How are the republicans going to spin taking back health care reform? After Obama has embraced republican ideas and the bill passes, what will they say on the November campaign trail? < :-)

Molenir how wrong you are. I see retirees everyday. And I haven't met a retiree yet who wants Obama's plan to fail. I keep hearing people tell me how upset they are with republicans. I haven't talked to anybody yet who wants his plan to fail, republican or democrat.
Again your comment is B/S. < :-)

Hey Odogma, those republicans who can't get health care insurance, or is it only democrats in that situation, but once they get healthinsurance protection what will the republicans do? Will they campaign before the November elections how they want to reverse this bill? Will they talk about all those people now getting insurance should lose it?
I mean Obama is using republican ideas and they are still thumbing their noses at Obama. Obama is going to get this bill passed without republicans. Then try to tell those people now getting Rx drugs at a lesser cost because the donut hole is closed. Try campaigning on closing that new entitlement. I look forward to hearing how they intend to sell that. < :-)

B/S Good doctors don't get sued. Good doctors do their job.
Now take the drug pushing, drunk surgeons, doctors who can't stay away from the drugs and incompetents out of the patients and the general public might be safe. But as long as the AMA and insurance keep protecting them and allowing them from going from state to state practicing their quackery we'll continue to have big malpractice suits.
By getting rid of these bad doctors their malpractice insurance to drop dramatically.
How much did the insurance companies give the republicans? The medical industry, the medical instruments companies?
I am enjoying the suggestions that the republicans are making. And the "NO" that they keep saying. The American people will enjoy the differences that the health care reform bill makes in the lives of those who can't get insurance. Try taking it away from them after they get it. Please republicans try. < :-)

It's not anti-American. It anti-entitlement. It's pro-insurance.
The insurance companies have been pulling the republicans around by the nose for decades.
The republicans don't want compromise. Obama saw that by having the summit last week the republicans would come up with some good ideas. He also knew that they would never sign on. By using their ideas and then they continue to refuse to compromise makes the republicans a part of this package whether they want to be a part of it or not.
If the republicans take a house of the congress, I can't wait to see them trying to reverse the package. Trying to take services away from their constituents. Oh, that will be beautiful. < :-)

So Obama accepts some more republican suggestions, but the republicans are still staying away from the package because they want the big win. Their win is Obama's demise.
I'm going to be happy when they push through the bill through reconciliation. I will be even happier when the republicans start trying to reverse it. Those who have preexisting illnesses, after getting insurance, can you imagine the republicans trying to take that away?
Obama has put the republicans in the corner and McConnell isn't going to weasel out. He and Boehner are stuck in a situation. < :-)

Republicans have the record on filibusters and reconciliation. They got it both ways.
Bunning is a wonderful example of a good republican. Vote for $Trillions in tax breaks without a way to pay for it, vote for $Trillions for the Rx Package with out a way to pay for it. But Bunning will stop a $15Billion package to help the unemployment and other federal programs. 2000 workers had to be sent home. No funds to pay their salary. Good going Bunning. < :-)
