Well it sure seems that the man who would not have lobbyists in his cabinet is surely eager to
kowtow to the lobbyists that Senator Baucus is so subservient to please.
And the same man who seemed to want a public option is now just simply Okilleee Dokilleee OK with a mandated insurance plan.
And this mandated plan is with the same Insurance providers that are Okilleee Dokilleee OK with denying the people who have paid their insurance premiums to die before that Insurance company will pay for the medical services that will save that person's life.
And it is done for the dollars that can pay off the big fat l;ying CEOs of that company.
And that man seems Okilleee Dokilleee OK with that plan also.
Are we surprised? Are the people who make up the base of the party that elected this man surprised?
Well I do not think we are surprised.
Like a man on this forum said just recently. "I have been down so long. it looks like up to me!"

Move along peasant - nothing to see here.

3. Thanks so much for your deep concern.
I'll be waiting to see what happens with the whole health insurance thing before I start trashing our President, if you don't mind.

5. Hey I have an idea.
You practice your freedom of speech as you like and so will I. Unless the rules are so severe here that some people are required to STFU about certain things.

7. I must have missed the part where I said you couldn't
write what you wanted. Let me look...nope, it's not in there.

So, you said your piece, and I said mine. I have no tools with which to restrict your speech in the first place. In the second, freedom of speech only applies to the government restricting your speech.

Either way, I don't see how there is any restriction on you...or on me.
