Senator John Barrasso on Now
He is saying when he asked people at town halls if they felt the plan was good, they all said no. When asked if they thought the cost would go up, they all said, yes. When asked if they felt their health care would go down, they all said, yes. Why didn't he ask them if they believed they and their neighbor should all have the same health care he has? I wonder how many people would admit they don't give a shit about anyone except themselves. Those are the numbers that should be talking about.

3. I like how he thinks that most health care costs would be lowered
if people exercised more, ate less and quit smoking.

But, I guess that the crap in our foods causing us to gain weight doesn't matter. You know like preservatives and HFCS and genetically engineered produce...

The fact that some people are working two jobs, taking care of children and still having to maintain their house can't seem to - oh, I don't know - find time to freakin' exercise.

The fact that Europeans, who smoke and drink at the same or higher rates than we do, have longer lives and better health.... because they have access to health care, more time off to de-stress and don't eat crap-laden food.

:eyes:

4. As a Physician It Is Even
Worse that he doesn't acknowledge genetics. Idiot.

6. Exactly.
His opinion proves Grayson correct.

The Republican answer to health care: "Don't get sick. And if you do get sick, die quickly."
