[John F. Kerry]

"According to the Gallup polling organization, the percentage of Americans who believe the cost of health care for their families will "get worse" under the proposed reforms rose to 49% from 42% in just the past month. The percentage saying it would "get better" stayed at 22%.

"

For one, that Gallup poll that the article refers to makes no mention of support of the public option, that isn't what the poll was about (but your thread was).

In U.S., Half See Own Costs Worsening Under Healthcare Bill

Secondly, you should dig a little deeper before posting:

In U.S., 39% Say View on Healthcare ?Depends? on Details

Notice near the bottom, the section titled:

The Prospect of a Public Option

50% support, 46% do not support. Hardly a "majority". In fact, not at all.

Secondly, the article writer calls it "ObamaCare" which is something tagged onto the reform by it's opponents, so the article writer is clearly writing with a grudge and using the same tactics you are.

Once again, you took what you wanted and twisted it to fit your far-right (wrong) thinking.

But kudos to you...I think this might be the very first source you've ever posted in your tenure at Yahooka.

Dude I seriously doubt if that is your name. A lazy choice for a moniker to poke at the krats is more like it. I peg you as a run of the mill boring insurance salesman selfishly and obediently doing your part for the fascist, G-20, un-American WTO gippers.



Earlier today, Senator Majority Leader Harry Reid announced his intention to include a government-run insurance plan with an “opt out” provision in the Senate version of health care legislation. The New York Times reported : “I’ve concluded, with the support of the White House, Senators Dodd and Baucus, that the best way to move forward is to include a public option with the opt-out provision for states,” Mr. Reid said “I’ve concluded, with the support of the White House, Senators Dodd and Baucus, that the best way to move forward is to include a public option with the opt-out provision for states,” Mr. Reid said at a news conference.

“Under this concept, states will be able to determine whether the public option works well for them and will have the ability to opt out if they so choose. I believe that a public option can achieve the goal of bringing meaningful reform to our broken system.” continued...

Please support President Obama's plan for health reform in 2009. We need to bring stability and security to those who currently have insurance, affordable coverage to those who don't, and rein in the cost of health care.

So the teabog ditso's insurance hero's...
are also the Pharmaceutical drug thug worriers...
and the Science Fiction Christian Monitor...
So they can make even more profits to shelter taxes through anti Ganja campaigns. I think thats pretty much being charged for our own self destruction on this forum. Bad enough our taxes have to pay for our own jail cells if we get busted. Now you want us to pay for the stupid fried egg commercials? curiouser and curiouser...

Pollster Behind Controversial Public Option Poll
Has Long Ties To Insurance Industry

The Republican half of the bipartisan team of pollsters behind a new, controversial poll on health care has longstanding ties to the health insurance industry that critics say biased the results.

Oh'Riley? Now would the GOPerverts do that? Lie, just to horde billions in salary profits? Well my lord, these Iraqi baby-killers and pesticidal maniacs caging sick pot smokers would actually be bias in a poll? No, no don't let it be so!



Christian Science Monitor is scared of… something

That cost is Washington’s tacit approval of state-sanctioned medical marijuana, which the drug’s proponents will take as a green light to push even harder for their ultimate goal: full legalization of marijuana use and distribution.

"Treatment" is what cost tax payers. And profits the few wealthy International corporations buying this smear campaign, for nothing more than their own vested ignorance. Buzzness. The majority of ditzo's will only pay for it. Maybe if you're lucky they'll give you an autograph.

Dare To Opt Out, Not Likely! by lyleoross
Mon Oct 26, 2009 at 07:00:16 PM PDT
Now that it appears likely that the opt out option will be the form the public option will take, let's be sure that we understand what that means. It means that all states will have the public option. What you say! No, that's not a guarantee, someone for some reason will opt out. I find that highly unlikely and inconsistent with what we've seen.

Public Support for the Public Option

[JcP]

Aight, you're going on ignore. You obviously have no desire to want to talk about things, you just want to spout your Fox News based bullshit and ignore when someone respectfully shows you that your claims are erroneous. You just ignore people when they prove you wrong but I persisted this time and you've shown why you ignore people...because you're lying through your teeth. But you know you're lying and you know we are right, so I take solace in that fact.

I don't think we can ban someone for being a proven liar, but we can ignore. I suggest everyone else does the same and rid of A&P permanently of this vermin.

I'm surprised you haven't done so already. There's still competent and smart conservative voices on these forums...people who I disagree with vehemently (Hedons, most recently)... but at the very least they are basing their opinions on facts, not baseless rants.

the sad part is I don't even need J-Wonder on "see" to know everything he's said. This is communism, people don't want it, Obama is trying to take your freedoms, it's going to bankrupt the country.
Amirite?

[zerodown]

Honestly, I think this issue is just a means to keep the public distracted from paying attention to important things.

Its an issue in which the common folk will never reach a consensus thus its an endless debate meant to distract us, keep us arguing with one another for four years.

"the chicago way"


what? more discussion about a terrible proposal thats being shoved down out throats to please the far left fringe in lala land out there in cali.....

that keeps getting regurgitated over and over and all the chicago way folks wanna do is make people shut up and stand in line.

pathetic.

Your brain seems tremendously easy to wash. Do you have a red alert button by your bed?

[wellfleation]

Hold one...just one second...

Posting factual polls that prove your original claims of the polls to be false information, is not worth a reply.

One more time...

Posting factual polls that prove your original claims of the polls to be false information, is not worth a reply.

I've already posted a poll in another thread where a large majority of even doctors support a PO.

[scottishbastard]

Shit, why wouldnt the state governments want the public option? Its not their money. And besides, now the Rx lobbyists dont have so far to travel to bribe people.

[Terry]

Don't know why having the states decide is so nefarious, I'd think a conservative would be all for that idea.

[Ego Tripping]

Everything right now is nefarious to them. They're like the scared kitty in the corner that knows its about to be taken out.
