Marsha Blackburn (R-TN).
Either she did not know the answer to this question or she did not hear it correctly. But I think she is saying "you have a pre-existing condition in the GOP plan we will put you in high risk pool". So much for affordable healthcare.

1. The whole point of having insurance is to spread the risk around.

3. "air-head" takes my attention

Just happened to notice as this lame ass repuke was squawking....is there a story behind the 60+ year old neck that doesn't seem to go with the "balloon tight face"? I only bring it up because the right wing talk show hosts seem to be obsessed with Nancy Polosi's tight face. Maybe they would want to investigate THEIR OWN little bell?

This woman turns my stomach everytime I see her. She is a "michelle bachmann-lite". Better looking, but just as dumb. She just doesn't open her yap as much.

4. She said essentially nothing...

my impression was that individuals w/pre-existing conditions were going to pay more, (probably a lot more), or they were going to get absolutely nothing.

Since most people have some kind of P-e-c, Many would fall right out of the pools, thereby not be able to receive treatment. In other words, "tough shit, I got mine"...:grr:

5. We have that in California I believe, but the premiums for the high-risk

people are beyond belief. You have to be rich to pay for the high-risk premiums.
