Thom breaks down the Senate bill, the poison pill that was Medicare Part D and what this bill has turned out to be. He also asks the question "Would Obama's mother have benefited from this Senate Health Care Bill"?

that back room deal with Big Pharma proves Obama is NOT the Transparency Super Hero he labeled himself.

3. I feel so disappointed and downhearted
that this bill is going by the way side. I have good health insurance, Medicare and BC/BS PPO which pays for ALL MY HEALTH CARE. But I think of all the people, the little children and the other elderly who don't have health insurance.

I just had a mammogram and they found lumps which turned out to be cancerous. I had a mastectomy and thank goodness it had not spread. But can you imagine the fear and desolation of women who had the same problem and didn't have health care. I sit and cry sometimes at the ruthless, uncaring, greedy S.O.B.'s that were elected to office to do our bidding and once they got in starting milking any all corporations for money. How they sit on their a** in congress and say THEY can't vote for this, THEY don't feel comfortable. What the hell. THEY were elected to do what we want them to do, not what they want to do. It is a shame that there was not some way we could over turn their election and vote in another person to take their place with we don't have confidence in them. It is also a shame that we can't make referendums for the whole country and vote on them like they do in state referendums in California.

8. K&R. Just gave to the DFA, and I'll be subscribing to Thom's show too.
I am not giving up on trying, but I've given up on believing.

9. Tom is right on the money on this
My prediction is that this bill will pass in the end because it is just too perfect for the insurance industries and the whores pushing it...even if one or two pugs have to bite the bullet to make sure the bill passes as long as the dems can still get blamed for it. This bill is just an extension of the poison pill medicare part D to finish the job and totally destroy medicare which the pugs have been trying to do from its inception.
