3. Rachel's last statement was very powerful

allowing Paul Ryan and Marsha Blackburn and not people like Anthony Weiner to participate in the HCR summit says a lot about what the intentions of this summit are.

5. The intentions of this summit were never in doubt.

This government is ever going to create an entity that would effectively destroy the multi-billion, if not multi-trillion dollar industry that is health insurance in this country. It would decimate an entire industry, laying off millions of employees in a time of economic crisis, and it would devastate 401K and other investments in the health insurance industry.

Killing the health insurance industry, which is what is required, is too painful for any politician to actually do.

4. Fucking A!

"We have private for profit companies who are trying to make as much profit as possible off our need for that care.

and the point is not to blame them for them wanting to make a profit but to not look at what they're doing and call it a health care system."

Man she just rocked it out of the park.

Fantastic piece.

6. Blaming the Republicans on this is so Yesterday's News

- The Democrats are in the majority It's the Democrats (a la Bayh, Landrieu, and a few others) and the WH that are screwing us over right now!

8. How true,thanks for your comment

7. I just sent Weiner a one-word email from his website:

"BRAVO!"

It took just a few seconds to let him know that a Democrat with balls is appreciated.
