" Just think what it would be like if ol' President Change would start producing some, y'know, change."

The Lady has a point.

Meanwhile, the One speaks out of both sides of his mouth.

But the rest of his Party not completely owned by the insurance companies is pissed, and for good reason.

What is this "reform" of which you speak?

Krugman:

...Add in the dealmaking as part of the health care process itself, and progressives can be forgiven for having the impression that Obama (a) takes them for granted (b) is way too easily rolled by the other side.

So progressives have their backs up over one provision in health care reform that’s easy to monitor. The public option has become not so much a symbol as a signal, a test of whether Obama is really the progressive activists thought they were backing.

And the bizarre thing is that the administration doesn’t seem to get that.

I think it is largely because the One lives in a bubble of his own chosing, his Ba$e's approval, and Rahm's handiwork.

Of course, it doesn't help when so-called "liberal" publications like The New York Times publish crap saying liberals want to limit Medicare for the over 85.

Any one who claims to be "liberal" and advocates that is nothing like a liberal.

Now you know the origin of the term DINOcrat: Democrat in Name Only.

A nation that can give a trillion dollars to the banksters up front and promise them another 9 trillion more can provide good healthcare for everybody.

Hell, we could pay off the educational loans of every medical professional in the country, give them salaries equal to or better than they already have, and run free clinics on every streetcorner for a fraction of what we're paying and going to pay as long as we live to keep the banksters solvent.
