Rich Sanchez (CNN) said that Baucus got $4 mil
from insurance companies from 1989 to present. That's $200,000 per year.

Keith Olberman just said he got only (only?) $3 mil...

Go to hell Max Baucus....and take your bill with you.

3. Does "insurance companies" comprise all types of insurance?
Or just health insurance?

4. Sanchez said "health" and..
you can see that insurance stocks all went up today....due to Baucus' bill...so you can gather from that most of his dough came from health..

Sanchez was very accusatory toward Baucus...moreso than Keith.

5. Did he think no one would notice?.....
he should be removed from the debate for the sheer conflict of interest alone, instead he is one of the prime people leading it (the debate). As I said in another thread, this country is so backwards it's ridiculous. You want access to quality health care? Move to a civilized country then because odds are you won't be getting any in the US for a looooong time. Even that would be easier than having to wait for it to happen here.

6. That's the going rate for a soul in the Senate?
$200,000 a year? That's way cheaper than I would have guessed.
