New alternative names for the Public Option

[zulchzulu]

Just to perhaps get the legislation passed, perhaps call it:

[phantom power]

1. Medicare For All

[LiberalEsto]

2. Perfect! nt

[phantom power]

3. Except for the detail that is isn't on the table.

x(

[RepublicanElephant]

11. bingo!! nt

[Hawkowl]

12. PR genius

Medicare for all is what is needed. We already see rethuglicans and blue dogs vigorously defending medicare AGAINST "Obamacare". So Obama should just concede and agree to Medicare for all.

14. BTW, that wasn't my idea. I just think it's the best idea.

[blueworld]

4. How about "Glenn Beck's 'only healthy Americans can fight Socialism' Bill"?

Or "Homeland Security needs You, if you're not obese & have good teeth"

Or "You may be needed to fight in Iran as well"

Or "Christian soldiers must be in top form"

Or "Get fit for the Rapture"?

Or "You can't kill a commie for Mommie unless she lives long enough to read the headlines"

Or "Young American women need to breed for the Homeland, so we'll cover your vaccinations"?



I mean, we have to appeal to the litter of Blue Dog/Fundie/Bible-thumpin' patriots, right?

We need a name that shows we can afford to kill others while keeping ourselves healthy & preparing for the Antichrist, terrorists & the wily Communists.

6. Do like they did on "The West Wing" with the word 'recession'.

Most of us consider "non-profit" in a positive light and "alternative" is a completely non-threatening word.
