Thank you, fallen soldier.

Does this photograph strike anyone else as a metaphor for The Public Option?

Does it seem backwards that our laws mandate that every car owner MUST have car insurance, but your own national government has no obligation to you regarding your health? How is that not a case of what the right wing loves raving about- namely, the big, bad, scary Government telling you what to do and interfering in your life?

If the government provided a health care option to those that wanted it, they would be 'socialist', but the mandating of car and health insurance and their creating an oligarchy who then stuffs political coffers is better? That's really 100% efficient and "by the people, for the people, and of the people"?

So to recap: the smaller the government the better. An example of "small government" would be
one that would gladly watch you die of cancer because it's cheaper for them.

If the Group of Six or the Senate Finance Committee shoots down health care for scores of millions of people- how are they any different than a "Death Panel"?








I'm T.R. Slyder, and that's how you Tangueray.
