		<description>No public option likely?

Why do so many from O&#039;Reilly on down to the bloggers on this site think that it won&#039;t be in there or rear it&#039;s ugly head as the Law of the Land sometime down the road?

There is little point to this ObamaCare BS unless there is a &quot;public option&quot;...well, maybe a &lt;em&gt;de facto &lt;/em&gt;pork barrel of immense proportions.

If nothing else, he could, I suppose, just stick the public option provision into the bill &lt;em&gt;after&lt;/em&gt; it&#039;s been passed in whatever form?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The GOP will have gone closer to triggering a third party.

Sapwolf on October 7, 2009 at 4:48 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

If ObamaCare passes, that will all be for naught, and the only &#039;triggering&#039; able to make any sort of difference will be the kind that requires bullets. Barring a race-specific epidemic, we&#039;ll NEVER be able to undo the mantra of &quot;evil rich white men are trying to take your &lt;em&gt;free healthcare!!!!!&lt;/em&gt;&quot; We&#039;re just too outnumbered.</description>

RedState is saying the Senate GOP morons are folding on health care and will NOT filibuster a health care bill — time to melt the phone lines. Link: Senate GOP Folding Over Health Care Reform

Just called Voinovich&#039;s office.

If this government-controlled healthcare plan passes we&#039;re f*cked.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Just one more thing: IT’S NOT THEIR MONEY!!!!

Blacksmith8 on October 7, 2009 at 4:13 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You&#039;re right, I should have been more specific. It is taxpayer money, and they are supposed to watch that it is used wisely when used to bail out a company...and I doubt that being given as bonuses for people who are already well-to-do is a very good use.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Well I’ve only got one source and it’s not independent. 

Blacksmith8 on October 7, 2009 at 4:10 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That&#039;s not good for your case, then.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Stupid Ass go look it up at the IRS.
btw does dark-star = dim bulb? just askin’?

Blacksmith8 on October 7, 2009 at 4:10 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

My, I do love the eloquence demonstrated by my fellow &#039;conservatives&#039; when I dare to disagree.

FYI, for what little it&#039;s worth to you, my username was one I made up long ago - I forget my exact train of thought but something along the line that our &#039;city on a hill&#039; was becoming a dim light.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve got the solution for all these folks that want the public option.

You pay for it.  Let the rest of us opt out, and NOT pay for it.

I want to keep my insurance.  I want the choice to look for my own doctors/practitioners. I want government OUT of my life. There are a few things that the Constitution give as responsibilities to this government.  Those are the only ones they should have.

Get OUT of my life, or I will fight it out.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The government is saying “&lt;strike&gt;our money&lt;/strike&gt;, our rules, and one of those rules is you can’t give the top honchos bonuses while we’re bailing out your business.”

		<description>&quot;our money, our rules&quot;?

Um, got news for the Government...it&#039;s OUR money, OUR rules.  Without us, they got nothing.  And frankly, I&#039;ve been thinking for years that we need a really good tax revolt in this country.  They pass this crap sandwich, I will declare myself an independent contractor and go off the f&#039;in grid.

No more of my money.</description>

    Is this the nuclear option?

Yes it is. In the nuclear winter that will follow, the dhimmicrap party will come to it’s inescapable demise. A dhimmicrap won’t be able to be elected to the office of pond scum sniffer.

The government is saying &quot;our money, our rules, and one of those rules is you can&#039;t give the top honchos bonuses while we&#039;re bailing out your business.&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Moron: 47% of Americans pay $0 income tax. The top 1% of people pays 40% of income. You sir are the very definition of a useful idiot.

Ooh, it&#039;s a scawy internet d**khead! I&#039;m afwaid!

...not.

First of all - got an independent, reliable source or two to back up that retarded statement? Yeah. Thought not.\

Secondly, YOU are the (useless) idiot here. Even IF, as you say, nearly half of Americans don&#039;t pay income taxes, that tax is only the tip of the iceberg. Almost every thing you buy and service you use has had costs jacked up by taxes.</description>

		<description>I guess Harry has decided he doesn&#039;t care about re-election and is going full in. Makes sense I guess, he&#039;s toast no matter what. This way at least he gets a nice ambassadorship to St. Kitts as a thank you from Obama.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;A government of the government, by the government and for the government. Screw the people, who cares about them?

Sooner or later the idiots in DC will come to understand that WE, The People have two things they must have:

VOTES and MONEY

&lt;strong&gt;2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
