The Truth About Health Care Insurance Reform

[Benny B]

In this video, Linda Douglass, the communications director for the White Houses Health Reform Office, addresses a story that makes it look like the President intends to eliminate private coverage, when the reality couldnt be further from the truth.

I have a job and a private health care plan.  I, unlike you, care about my fellow americans and i, unlike you, am prepared to help them out in their time of need.  I am not so selfish as to believe this life is all about me and my family or all about the money i can keep for myself, unlike you of course. 

You have a government plan though don't you? Being the socialist that you are you should understand my stance.

Dude I did more this morning for the US and her people then u've done in a life time. I'm not a socialist, u need to take Mons' cock out of ur mouth. I do a job, I get paid for it. My job involves getting shot at, unless ur a cop or firefighter..ur job involves paper cuts.

LOL 

All of the Republican members of Congress seeking to block health care reform have gov't run health care. It's good enough for them, but not for the rest of America.  At least as long as those insurance company checks keep comin'!

Apparently those are two different programs. If you were paying attention at all you would know that there was a provision that was in the bill that would call for all Congressmen to switch over to whatever health care the "Health Care Reform Bill" would provide.

Shockingly....it was stricken from the bill.

There are no "two different programs." By "paying attention," I have been more involved in this issue over the last several months than you would ever imagine. So pipe down sonny, or get your facts straight. 

Gov't run healthcare is...gov't run health care. The Republican members of Congress (as well as all other members) have it, yet the repubes don't are fighting against it being an option for the American people.
I'm waiting for these same individuals to fight to repeal Medicare...but I won't hold my breath.

Did you read my post?

I will say it again. Congress has a separate health care program that they use. It is different than the "Health Care Reform Bill" that is being proposed. There was a provision in the "Health Care Reform Bill" that said the Congressmen would have to switch to what the Reform Bill would provide. It was stricken from the bill.

So, if Govt run health care is...................... .govt run health care, why did Congress not want to switch to what the citizens are going to get? If they are the exact same thing, why did they not want to switch? Why do they want to keep their program?

If you, as you espouse, know so much and have been so involved in this issue, why don't you have clue? Saying "Govt. run health care is govt. run health care", shows a shocking lack of knowledge and insight.

Obviously you aren't following much.

I'm obviously not following you, because you are a moron. Not a brain cell firing in that head of yours.
Good luck.

Another weak comeback. With no answer.

Again. Congressmen want to keep their health care program that is provided to them. There was a provision in the reform bill that called for Congressmen to have to switch over to what the average citizen would be getting if the bill passed. They declined, had it stricken from the bill and chose to keep the program that they originally had.

Obviously what the Congressmen get is quite a bit different than what the avg. citizen would be getting under the reform bill.

Do you need pictures? Maybe a video? A puppet demonstration?
