An excerpt of the opinion piece titled "How Washington is screwing up
health care reform - and why it may take a revolt to fix it":

"....All that's left of health care reform is a collection of
piece-of-****, weakling proposals that are preposterously expensive and
contain almost nothing meaningful - and that set of proposals,
meanwhile, is being negotiated down even further by the endlessly
negating Group of Six. It is a fight to the finish now between Really
Bad and Even Worse. And it's virtually guaranteed to sour the public on
reform efforts for years to come."



Did you read the article, Lu-ser? The reason the reform bills don't go as
far as they should is because of conservatives like you who worked the
bills over.

Obviously, the only way we are going to get the sort of health care
reform we need is to just ignore the conservatives and tell them to pound
sand.

That tends to be what happens here when one party has a majority.


You good people should take the time to read the piece. It documents well
how the Dims and Republicans have screwed things up. If it didn't matter who
gets the credit, how much progress could be made???
