it's not every opportunity. And it's not just liberals. But you're right that the federal government shouldn't be involved in everything.
I guess this issue boils down to whether you think healthcare is one of those times when the federal government should interfere. I think it is. If you think it isn't that's fine. But suggesting THIS BILL should fail because it could LEAD to single-payer is silly. It would only lead to that if the public option is a raging success. If it fails, no one will want it. So it's win-win. If you think the public option is a bad idea and will fail, you'll get to gloat in a couple years. anyway...
Thank you for cutting through the bullshit. Just as you get "nuts" when people prescribe attributes to you based on the more typical version of a conservative, I get "nuts" when I am faced with the kind of post(s) that those typical conservatives post...like your admitted misstatement about single-payer takeover in this bill....which it isn't.
See? we're not so bad, you and I
