Who's writing this crap?

Democrats control the power of the entire federal government, and can pass legislation without a single Republican vote, right?  So check out this comment at a MarketWatch blog (post is about polling on health care reform):

We have the 37th worst quality of healthcare in the developed world.

I know that many of you are angry and frustrated that REPUBLICANS! In congress are dragging their feet and trying to block TRUE healthcare reform. What republicans want is just a taxpayer bailout of the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT health insurance industry, and the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT healthcare industry. An insurance bailout is all you really get without a robust government-run public option available on day one.

These industries have been slaughtering you and your loved ones like cattle for decades for profit. Including members of congress and their families. These REPUBLICANS are FOOLS!

Republicans and their traitorous allies have been trying to make it look like it’s President Obama’s fault for the delays, and foot dragging. But I think you all know better than that. President Obama inherited one of the worst government catastrophes in American history from these REPUBLICANS! And President Obama has done a brilliant job of turning things around, and working his heart out for all of us.

But Republicans think you are just a bunch of stupid, idiot, cash cows with short memories. Just like they did under the Bush administration when they helped Bush and Cheney rape America and the rest of the World.

But you don’t have to put up with that. And this is what you can do. The Republicans below will be up for reelection on November 2, 2010. Just a little over 13 months from now. And many of you will be able to vote early. So pick some names and tell their voters that their representatives (by name) are obstructing TRUE healthcare reform. And are sellouts to the insurance and medical lobbyist.

Ask them to contact their representatives and tell them that they are going to work to throw them out of office on November 2, 2010, if not before by impeachment, or recall elections. Doing this will give you something more to do to make things better in America. And it will help you feel better too.

There are many resources on the internet that can help you find people to call and contact. For example, many social networking sites can be searched by state, city, or University. Be inventive and creative. I can think of many ways to do this. But be nice. These are your neighbors. And most will want to help.

I know there are a few democrats that have been trying to obstruct TRUE healthcare reform too. But the main problem is the Bush Republicans. Removing them is the best thing tactically to do. On the other hand. If you can easily replace a democrat obstructionist with a supportive democrat, DO IT!

You have been AMAZING!!! my people. Don’t loose heart. You knew it wasn’t going to be easy saving the World.

God Bless You

Hilarious! The Democrats have a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and their agenda is stalled. Republicans don't have the votes to stop it! Its Democratic divisions that keep them from passing the legislation they want.

If you are blaming this purely upon the republicans my friend you are even more fool than I. There has been some pretty slimy democrats as well as republicans. Can you truly offer these mens name up for the chopping block without first laying forth there administration to be perused and read by the public who votes for them. It would be rash to vote against them simply because they wear the label republican. Is the stamp democrat much better? Also, to the health reform bill, Obama is not to blame because he didn't write it. If you read carefully any of the 1000 page health care reform bill you should be concerned. Here's a few higlights. pg30 government committee will decide what treatmentsand benefits you will get.pg 50 All non-us citizens, illegal or not,will be provided with healthcare services. Pg 65 tax payers will subsidize all union retiree and comunity organizer health plans.pg 84 All private healthcare must participate in the health care exchange.pg 124 no company can sue the government for price fixing, which means no kind of "judical review" of their actions.pg 127, government will set doctors wages. pg 354 Government will restrict erollment of special needs individuals.pg 427 government mandates program that orders end of life treatment pg 429Advance care planning consultant will be used to dictate treatment as patient's health deteriorates. pg 430 Government will decide what level of treatments you may have at end of life.Pg 425 Everyone on social security will go to mandatory counseling every 5 years to learn and choose from ways to end your suffering. This may not sound serious, but I gaurentee you if you read through the bill you may find something that is unsettling. I hope who ever wrote this bill is willing to except the same measure of care they lay forth. Please read the Bill, you may be suprised. I do not blame Obama for this at all, but even the president can not read and see all of whats going on, especially when he is off around the country trying to reassure people and bring change to a nation in drastic need of an overhaul. If this bill goes through without some major clarification and rewriting I fear the change that will be wrought will be irreersible. When you read the bill set forth consider your family, your friends, your country and lastly yourself.

by the way, there was alot of good I saw too. It definately wasn't all bad. I only have about the last 450pages to read

you can read the bill on line by typing healthcare reform plan. Several sites come up that you can get to it from
