Republicans give their poor relatives Swiss Cheese for Thanksgiving

And tell them they can only eat the holes.

That's their idea of Health Care too. Lots of cheese for the insurers; holes for everybody else

And that comes from both parties these days

2. Yep, you are right

But what do we do? Look at what the republicans are doing with their lies and scare tactics. They have convinced old people there will be death panels. They have convinced their radical base that president Obama is taking out country into a socialized country with government control of everything from health care to telling us what we can and can't eat! It's a pack of lies, but it's working and that is scary! Now the democrats are supposed to be working for the people, but as we have seen with the health care debates, some of them are working with the republicans to kill any kind of change to the current system. If we don't get something the people like out of this, the democrats are going to pay for it next year come election time.

The people are getting really ticked off in this country, and something needs to change, a real change not just talk. I think the president needs to get tougher and stop listening to whoever is telling him what to do for the last 9 months. Now I like what he has done by working with the leaders around he world, but it's time to fix he problems here, and since the republicans are in a mode to take him down and won't help, I say to hell with trying to make them happy! Congress needs to get busy and do what needs to be done, and the democrats need to start passing bills that are going to fix things, make sure we don't get into another melt down like Bush left us, and give us some "real" change that will benefit the people of this country for a change and not the big corporations that try and buy them off!

3. Share The Wealth

It seems they will only share the wealth with others just as wealthy and it looks very much like the same will hold true with health care--share the health with only others just as healthy. The rest of us get the swiss cheese holes, the doughnut holes, the loopholes that keep us from ever obtaining what that small percentage at the top gets. We aren't after the entire pie but it would be nice to get a small slice instead of crumbs.
