I'll take care of it. For starters, you did not at all respond to the content of the post, but that's typical. Redefining an argument you cannot win is probably all that you have. So, if you'd like to put you talking points down for a moment... 1. Insurance company profits, industry wide, are just over 2%. 2. The Republicans have offered multiple plans, all were rejected out of hand without debate (so much for bipartisanship). 3. The media conveniently ignored the fact that the republicans offered anything, and did not report it. 4. Even this blog offered a plan, if you'd bother to actually read anything here. So sparky, how do you respond to the hidden costs of the plan? Folks, I let a moonbat through. I’ll take care of it.

By playing a shell game with the numbers, they are able to project the costs as much lower than they will actually be. By their estimates, the combined House and Senate bills would come in at around $1 trillion over the next decade.

Do we allow the health insurance company 's to continue to make a killing at the expense of America? I'm not in favor of everything in this bill, but to do nothing as our so-called republican lawmakers are is not the answer. So, what passes as health care is OK….not in any need of revision?

They are practicing outright fraud on the American people. They really must think that most Americans are blind and stupid and you know what, they may be right. Slight of hand hell!

Time after time, we see Congress do things and manipulate the numbers to hide the real cost to the American taxpayers. Just once, I would like to see Congress held responsible for such tactics.

It is a new medical term describing the inflammation, or redness and irritation of the citizenry when they are lied to over and over. I believe all those things fell victim to hopeandchangeitis.

I think the tricks would be more understandable if they hadn't said that they were NOT going to do such things. What ever happened to transparency, posting bills for the public to view, vetoing earmarks, bipartisanship, and the most ethical Congress since the beginning of the world? Well said Don.
