See .... ya gotta play the word game ..... if ya can't .... ya wind up feelin' even worse.

[Stinky The Clown]

Three words keep being put into play: "Robust" "Public" "Option"

You imbue those words with your own meanings. No one has defined them. The Cocks of the Walk are all puffed up and crowing about what great job they did in bringing this forward.

Throughout this whole leaderless sham of a debate, those words have been thrown about, chewed upon, spat and rechewed.

Other words were put into play at the edges.

And it was all intended to deceive. Or obfuscate. Or just put out there to hide the speaker's ignorance.

Do we know who was at the table with Cheney when the energy policy was written?

Do we know who was at the table when these "bills" were written?

And yet we're begin told that we need to be happy that we're getting **something**.

Isn't that like dogs salivating at tableside until the human drops a crumb .... or spits something out while talking and it shoots to the floor?

Down boy.

Stop sniveling

No begging.



Don'tcha feel better now?

1. Don't feel that. Don't think that. Don't say that. Don't eat that. Don't drink that.

Don't want that. Don't need that.

"Down boy.

Stop sniveling

No begging"

Pretty much sums it up.

Thanks... I think I will use those words....

2. Good catch

It's all about perception management and using fluffy words like these allows them to speak without saying much.

3. If you honestly think its that intentionally orchestrated

You might as well get out your Vaseline, because you aren't going to be changing it anytime soon.

4. "Orchestrated"? No. Weaselly? Yes, absolutely.
