Tête-à-Tête-Tête

Maybe the Healthcare ummmm… readjustment… bill is less bad than I thought. I don’t know. I’m certainly not excited about it, in any case. I guess we’ll see if it becomes a third rail of politics or if it gets repealed next time the GOP gets a 51 vote majority. And then we still [...]

I haven’t followed the HRC debate very closely… but I have kept a peek with one eye.
From what I can tell I’m with Howard Dean – kill this bill. Industry is the only big winner. While on paper it may lead to more people being insured, it looks like it will also [...]

I think we should have some kind of grassroots uprising to speak out against healthcare rationing. The spontaneouser the better!

I think one reason that the notion that you’ll spend your life on a waiting list under universal health care in the U.S. is that it appeals to experience we have all had. Not all of us. From adulthood until I was about 30, I never had any interaction with the health-care industry at all. [...]

Virginia-5 – my hat is off to you.

Alright – every one that bet on “It’s already happened, you idiot”, come collect your prize. You can also have the 2:1 payout on the Not Michelle Bachman… as far as I know the only nationally elected official to advance the euthanasia trope in July was Virginia Foxx of NC:

So Kudos to Rep. Fox [...]

The short form of the new, revoltingly vituperous talking point, and a response to it is here. However, this is just a small part of appears to be a large scale coordinated message campaign.
Fred Thompson hosted a much longer session of … what do you call it when distortion follows insinuation [...]

Jlue points us to an e-mail address that (I assume) will reach the members of the “blue dog” caucus of congressional democrats: BlueDog@mail.house.gov.
I’m assuming that Mike Ross is included on the list that will receive communications through this address.
So, if you are interested in the healthcare debate, and hope to influence a caucus [...]
