Therefore, refuting that charge might be a worthwhile enterprise. I gather you disagree, you would rather leave lies out there to confuse people. <br /><br />Meanwhile, no where in the second post on Kelly's column does Davoe mention the Public option, although he does mention it in the first post. He mentions it in the context of dispelling additional misinformation. Although, as you mention, it appears Congress may have decided it can not stand up to the conservative lying about health insurance reform, and the public option may not survive to the final compromise bill, if there is one. Whether there will be non-profit insurance collectives is not clear, we may simply consign the uninsured to bankruptcy, death, or both. <br /><br />The fact that this time (as opposed to 1993) Congress has the option of dropping the public option (or any part of health insurance reform) is due to Obama not working on the proposal in secret and simply dropping it on Congress for an up or down vote. The Congressional bills are being subjected to public scrutiny, and members of Congress are getting input from their constituents. It would be nice if the input was informed, but you would apparently prefer to shut this blog down and leave Jack Kelly’s misinformation out there, to whip up and inflame local residents.<br /><br />This blog might well be myopic, but that hardly makes it shitty or irrelevant. You are, of course, entitled to your opinion, but unless your opinion makes some sense you are also likely to be criticized for it.<br /><br />Vegas is shitty and irrelevant?EdHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09109361235271107574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-80879427051114919842009-08-18T06:47:49.528-04:002009-08-18T06:47:49.528-04:00And yet you took the time to comment...And yet you took the time to comment...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00882808664663449032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-75155076454666885422009-08-18T01:31:24.604-04:002009-08-18T01:31:24.604-04:00The term "death panel" is just rhetoric....The term "death panel" is just rhetoric. You probably know that. Or maybe you don't --you both seem a bit politically naive and certainly myopic. <br /><br />You must know at this point that a public option is dead and only so because of the history of Ms. Clinton's foray into this area of entitlement. And not for its alleged public good, but for the dramatic shifts it has engendered in poll numbers. MOCs are running away from a public option in droves having seen the numbers. Beware the lessons of the '94 mid-terms.<br /><br />Without question, you possess a fantastic tunnel vision and an unrelenting denial of any opposing viewpoint. It really is quite remarkable. But then you did support Mike Veon with the stunning platform, and I paraphrase here, that "he's a criminal, but he's our criminal." <br /><br />This is a really shitty blog. Its whole basis seems to rely on parsing the meaning of a few words here or there, or dissecting a phrase. There's no there there. Congratulations --you're the Las Vegas of shitty, irrelevant, local political blogs.thegooglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17311946755089319830noreply@blogger.com
