Poll question: "Obama's (health care) plan only offers more government, while McCain's plan offers more choices."
- From a McCain campaign spokesman.

With McCain's plan, here are the REAL choices.

1. McCain's plan is basically you're screwed.
He thinks people use too much health care, which is bullshit.

Obama's is better but still not good enough, although it might be all we get with the government going bankrupt and all. Actually I doubt he will be able to implement it or anything else.

2. All of the above which should also include
"We will trim your benefits and coverage each and every year so our CEO's can make out like Wall Street Bandits."

Really, in debates, etc., when the McCain camp throws out that "government making your health care decisions" BS I wish the Obama campaign would come back with something about the Insurance industry that is making them NOW. They override physicians each and every day.

3. McCain does offer more choices.
Wander out in the woods by yourself and die like the American indians did.

Die under the interstate bridge, surrounded by your family, who is also homeless.

Kill yourself before you drain your family dry. ( includes 1000 choices on method )

Die at the hands of the illegal doctor doing surgery in his basement.

Buy that simple cures for everything your doctor doesn't want you know about book and hope for the best.



I mean look that's 5 choices from McCain. What does Obama offer? Affordable safe access to basic medical care? I mean really. 5 choices versus 1 puny choice?

:sarcasm: obviously

4. Yeah, more choices--so McCain has more ways to tax your health benefits
and more carriers that can drop your ass at the first sign of trouble.
