Sadly there were a few traitors known as blue dog democrats in the Senate that stopped the public option.As you know I also believe we have a traitor to the democratic party in the White House as well
If we had a public option/medicare option we could have told the insurance companies to fuck themselves and bought into the public /medicare option
Thanks republicans and 7 or 8 blue dog democrats !!!!
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. That wouldn't cost any money. Nope....nothing. It's free!!!!!!!! Bwahahahahahaha.
Maybe that's what you believe.I know it will cost more,but its money better spent then Bush tax cuts , wars etc
Tax cuts? Hahahahaha. Dude, cutting the top rate from 39.5% to 35% is not a tax cut, it's an embarrassment. And right now your boy Barry is fighting 3 wars. Smack!
I don't consider 2.8 trillion an embarrassment

Tax cuts are estimated to have totaled $2.8 trillion, which we guess would count as âtrillions,â as the president put it. Strictly speaking, the two big tax cuts during the Bush years are estimated to total about $1.5 trillion, But many continued into the early years of the Obama presidency, and in December he cut a deal with Republicans to extend them even more, which brings us to $2.8 trillion.
(In case you are wondering, the cost of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars was $1.26 trillion through 2011 and the Medicare prescription drug program totaled $272 billion.)
Not my boy.Obama is a disgrace to the democratic party
Math does not add up. 39.5% to 35% = $2.8 trillion in tax cuts? This means that the rich pay $24.5 trillion per year in taxes according to those figures. That means we could pay the national debt off this year, have our 3.6 trillion dollar budget and still mail off a stimulus check to every man woman and child for $20k and still have a surplus.
Well, it's actually over 10 years. They throw out the trillion number for dramatic effect. More like 280 billion a year. Or to put it another way, a fraction of the bullshit foreign aid we give to corrupt middle eastern dictators every year.
