1. Poor people . . .
. . . don't need health savings account, Mr. Preznit Dickweed.

They need their meds or they'll die!

:freak: "Klink! You IDIOT!"

6. Boggles the mind . . .
. . . I get the feeling that not only has HE never had to worry about money, but no one he's ever known has either. Utterly clueless, and prefers it that way, I guess.

9. "I just don't know how poor people think" was a quote attributed to Bush*
:shrug: He sometimes has a knack for stating the obvious...

2. I suppose health care costs will soon force people to require
a moving company.... so there really is a connection between the two.... ;)

3. What is our President doing at a Northern Va Moving Company?
Don't tell me, he's sold the white house and is moving to Paris; did he throw in the furnishings as part of a package deal, or does Abramoff already
own them.

5. I don't want this thieving bunch of thugs in charge of any of this stuff.
No way. This SOB is liable to wipe out Medicare altogether if given the chance. The health insurance situation is bad enough now, just imagine how awful it will be after they get their slimy paws all over it.

7. Which Democrats rebutted his ridiculous proposals
by observing that the United States is the only major Western democracy that doesn't have universal healthcare and that a single-payer system is the solution to our nation's healthcare crisis?

10. I hate those "speeches" where he roams around with a mike.
Like a bad comedian during open mike night at the local comedy club.

Is that the same speech where he was enclosed in what looked like a white picket fence? Rich man petting zoo is what it reminded me of.
