This may cost us dearly, but we have done the right thing.
And doing the right thing is, well, the right thing to do.

1. If it's the right thing, why would it cost us anything?

5. Because we have a corrupt, cravenly corrupt media
who will work in lockstep with the RNC running against the imposition of death panels, forcing people to use gummint appointed doctors, forcing grandma to get an abortion, and all the other crapfest of lies we have been hearing for the last year.

2. Naive sentiment at best
Passing this had NOTHING WHAT SO EVER to do with doing the 'right' thing.

6. The Right Thing Was Medicare For All or Public Option
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 10:02 PM by MannyGoldstein
This is a big wet kiss to insurers with a side order of insuring a lot more people.

If it were truly the bees' knees, then it would not be halted from taking effect until after Obama's re-election bid.

We can all take a big break and watch the fireworks and tears.

9. I think we will win more seats in November - after hours of republican lies,
even they must be getting sick of themselves. It is not a great bill, but it is a good place to start, and it is as good as we could have hoped for given that it should have been done 100 years ago, but for republican opposition.
