Corporate Takeover of American Lives

That’s precisely what Kent Conrad wants. Mandates and no public option. Because that’s what America is all about.

I’ve been searching ever since for models that I thought would fit America’s values and American culture. I’ve felt for a long time that a system that’s not government-run, but does have universal coverage, does a good job on quality and containing costs, and has the elements we see in some of these other countries is most likely to fit here and win political acceptance and be effective.

Political acceptance? Seriously? He’s so insanely wrong. He clearly hasn’t been listening to Jay Rockefeller, Bernie Sanders, Raul Grijalva, Lynn Woolsey, Anthony Weiner or Nancy Pelosi lately. Even if he succeeded in getting progressives to go along with this nightmarish idea, such a plan would doom anyone who touched it. Mandates (universal coverage) and no public option would literally destroy the Democratic Party.

Want proof?

A Lake Research poll commissioned by HCAN shows 64 percent opposition to mandates without the public option. Contrastingly, the poll indicates 60 percent support for mandates with the public option.

    I really can’t stand this fucking guy. He’s so fucking stupid I’d like to pound his head with a meat mallet until it’s as flat as a pancake! Doesn’t he understand why we all voted for Democrats? We don’t want any input from the party that fucked up this country and disgraced our reputation. If we wanted input from Republicans we would have voted for John McGeezer! Stupid fucking blue dogs!Let’s see any of them try to squirm their way out of the CBO’s scoring of the bills with the public option which save 110 billion! If they’re so concerned about fiscal responsibility, how the hell can they not vote for the public option. By the way, even if they do vote for it, I hope every blue dog is thrown out of office. I also hope that Harry Reid gets his cream puff ass kicked out as well. We need a real Majority Leader!

    Off topic – I’m watching Rachel Maddow and she just took down this whole defuned ACORN bullshit. Basically, Black Water, KBR and seveal other government contractors will have to be defunded. The reasons for defunding ACORN “FRAUD” would also have to apply to all of them. It’s in the Constitution. I smell a lawsuit against Congress! Stay Tuned!
