The point was that you like to blame the GOP for everything bad that

medical legislation you are now criticizing.



That's not true. Health care reform was watered down repeatedly in order
to attract some Republican votes. But no matter what the Dems did, the
Repubs would not go for it because real reform would not be good for
their insurance company owners and, of course, the stated GOP leader
goal of doing whatever it could to "destroy" the Obama presidency.


That may have been true of the house bill but the Senate bill was
simply written and voted on in an up/down party line vote. The Senate
GOP leaders made it very clear they were not part of the process in
any way. Unfortunately the bill itself was simply a gift to all of the
special interests that the Democrats were demonizing in public.


uh let'ssee...the GOP healtchare reform?

none. they catered to the insurance companies by doing NOTHING...

They
used the rationalization that any bill called "health care" was better
than nothing. We are starting to see that may not be right and we are
just starting to see the ramifications of the language that nobody
read. By 2014, when the biggest parts of the bill come on line, I
expect to see massive public outrage.


blah blah blah...when has the right wing crystal ball been right?

when free market fundies deregulated wall street? how'd THAT work out?
