Health care vote may slip?

"With your Conservative masters controlling the country for six of eight years (TOTAL CONTROL)"

Somebody was not paying attention in class for several years.

" listen for the truth, neither abortions OR your fearful illegals will be covered under this plan."

And still not listening in class to day. Shame shame.

" However, being a closed minded Conservative you wouldn't believe anything not "reported" by your druggie Rush"

Oh I thought you were going to say Rep.Patrick Kennedy. My bad.

Cup09, your cup doth not runneth over with facts, that's for sure. You equate conservatives with Repubs. Where've you been during the past 8 years?

I will also point out that the current socialism bill does not flat out remove abortions from coverage or illegals from cashing in. If it did, there would be no need for REPRESENTATIVES VOTING ON THE BILL to be concerned. Another point: Why are the liberals fighting so hard against any amendment to rule out both? DUH!

Having begun, as you did, from a liberal perspective, I can only conclude that a little bit of linguistic trickery isn't beneath you. We say the same thing about Your Leader. He fought against lifesaving measures for infants born in botched abortion attempts. Why, then, should we think he holds truthtelling sacrosanct?

I could get real snarky and suggest that you should have worn your cup to protect your cranium, but I won't do that. Your move.

Once again the conservative "robots" come alive! Your against abortion?? With your Conservative masters controlling the country for six of eight years (TOTAL CONTROL), why wasn't abortions abolished? Where were your anti-abortion rhetoric then? As for illegals, you're listening to Hannity and Limbaugh WAAAY too much! IF you cared to listen for the truth, neither abortions OR your fearful illegals will be covered under this plan. However, being a closed minded Conservative you wouldn't believe anything not "reported" by your druggie Rush.

You can stick to your "Government Run" health care in Canada.

What the U.S has is certainly not to perfection, I'll admit.

They could have fixed the holes in the current system without rewriting it. In doing so, they would have been able to still control cost and offered up a system that would benefit all. It could have been done in half the time and with half the amount their now projecting.

I for one would rather not see illegals and abortions on any of the coverage.

To the Conservative "robots" who believe in the muck their masters spew to them this is a reprint from the Readers Digest, Nov. 09. It is interesting. " I'm Canadian, and had hernia surgery,rotator cuff repair, and 4 MRIs. My entire family received care for some complicated conditions. My cost for all this, nothing. Traveling, I came across a donation jar in a gas station in International Falls, Minnesota. It was for an 11 year old girl with stage III cancer. Her family had no insurance. That would never happen in Canada. Do not be afraid of health-care reform". This child could be yours. Would you be able to pay for her/his treatments and NOT go broke? Didn't think so.
