The Public Plan

[Mr. Shaman]

Hey, "conservatives"....MOVE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

"The White House and congressional Democrats, fed up with a failed effort to woo Republican support, may proceed without the opposition party in passing comprehensive healthcare reform, reports signaled Wednesday.

Speaking to the New York Times, White House powerbroker and chief of staff Rahm Emanuel declared that the Republican party was standing in the way of progress. His remarks seem to mark a shift from more conciliatory language previously being used by the White House."

"Things look bad from over here

Too much confusion and no solution

Everyone here knows your fear

You're out of touch and you try too much

Yesterday's glory won't help us today

You wanna retire?

Get out of the way!"​

Hey, "conservatives"....MOVE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

Democrats control the Senate, the House, and the White House with super majorities, yet Republicans are blocking the plan?

The reason Democrats are unable to get anything passed in this regard is because Democrats themselves are split on the issue.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

"House Democrats are probing the nation’s largest insurance companies for lavish spending, demanding reams of compensation data and schedules of retreats and conferences.

Letters sent to 52 insurance companies by Democratic leaders demand extensive documents for an examination of ‘extensive compensation and other business practices in the health insurance industry.” The letters set a deadline of Sept. 14 for the documents.

An industry source replied when asked for comment: “This is nothing more than a taxpayer-funded fishing expedition designed to silence health plans."

Gee.....if they've got nothing to HIDE, what're they AFRAID-of??!!!
