56. You are advocating the exact same thing that the Republicans are.....
the.exact.same.thing!

Quoting you: "better to scrap a bad bill and start over with new assumptions, new goals, and new people doing the design work . . . I'd rather see us take an extra year and do it right than hurry through flawed legislation"

So what I want to know is why is it that you have no problem denying 31 million people health coverage? Why is covering more, but just maybe later in order to spite the Insurance Carriers and to get coverage for fucking everybody your priority? Why don't those 31 millions mean not enough? What kind of value is that? Because it isn't a liberal value.

I saw that 11 year old little boy begging Congress while talking about his dead mother.
and it's not just him, it's other Babies, young children, mothers, fathers all told to fucking wait some more by those who believe they know a better way. Those who believe themselves so intelligent and so righteous that their priority is to make 31 million wait for something better, just in case it is out there, and if not soon, like another year, then who knows when?

How could anyone look into someone's face and want to say.....well, "since we couldn't do more for all of us, we ain't doing shit for you now! But maybe later, but maybe not!"

I fucking want to know what this is called? cause it ain't empathy; it ain't sympathy; and it ain't human related principle.....no matter how much folks try to rationalize it as such.

When did Americans' lives become of lesser value than sticking it to the suits?

What is that about? What kind of value is that called?

What kind of person, at this point, would really truly believe that they are doing anyone a favor,
by literally advocating handing a death sentence to these Americans (who ain't got no fucking choice as it stands),
in order to say "Fuck you" to Insurance companies and to Pres. Barack Obama?

Not Dr. Howard Dean.
Not Sen. Sanders.
Not Sen. Franken.
Not Mr. Krugman.
Not Weiner or Grayson or Barbara Lee.
In fact, I dare to say, certainly not people of good will. Because what you quoted was the Republican talking points. Feigning to care, when your recommendations belies that as a non fact.

So where does all of this righteousness come from? Because the sorry exaggerations about this bill
don't even start to explain why lives of ordinary Americans matters just so little to the keyboard warriors.

What is being told to these people is exactly that they aren't even worth compromise or consideration because I guess they really don't matter. The 31 million are mainly the poor who will now get health coverage through this bill, and I guess smart people just really don't like that shit, unless they get just as much if not the same as those who have fucking nothing!

Yeah....the more I think about it, the madder I become!
I'm really sick of this petty selfish ass spoiled bullshit.
All of the concerns about Cost and money and.....
under the guise that Barack Obama just wants a political win.....
But of course, the fact that he's been willing to risk more than you,
in order to help those 31 million....
well somehow, that isn't anything to even think about.

Well, I have known that the Republicans have no heart, hell they brag about it....
but I thought that we were way better.

It's not that something is better than nothing....
it's that nothing is nothing,
and that is what you feel superior enough to choose for others;
fucking nothing.
