Everyone on Hardball tonight seemed half empty type people

[Johonny]

When the "liberal" is crying about not wanting the Government saying "no" to her you know it's going to be a loooong "very special" hardball. I'm pretty sure there's nothing special about tuning in to see Maddows and getting Mathews. Anyways, what's with all the negativeness. Sure I guess not every single person will have every single possible thing they want done paid for by the government plans, but this plan (heck any plan) will mean millions of more people will be hearing yes to basic health care. Why is there a basic assumption your government is going to say NO to you? I really don't get it. Heck my actual insurance rarely says no to me as it is. The whole context of the show didn't make sense to me.

1. Rather depends on what they mean by "basic," doesn't it? n/t

2. Echo Chamber Circle Jerk.

Hardballs was all about the ego gratification of the host and guests and had nothing whatsoever to do with the President's presser. That was just the excuse for some insipid and inane celebrity heavy petting. Tweety was so far up his own ass he became a mobius loop and don't even get me started on Howard, poor bastard, the green room bar must have been locked up tighter than a tick tonight.

3. Chris and Ed need a talking to

Rachel is fine, she toe's the line, But Chris says what's wrong with a "credit union" style of pooling plans to lower the cost. The cost ain't the problem, ( well it is, but that's another story) It's the fact we would STILL be handing money to shareholders of a profit based system, and STILL having to co-pay, and be denied treatment. He should get his head out of his ass and push the single payer government universal plan. And both of them gotta stop bringing these Repukes on the show because Ed got his ass kicked by that smarmy bastard he had the health care debate with, and the guy ( forget who it was) got about 5 minutes of yapping his right wing puke all over the airwaves... he just talked through Ed and flapped his lips for free! s for the "no" thing, that's just a boogeyman drummed up by the right wing liars. In a universal plan, there is absolutely NONE of that. Check out what Jack Laytton said on the Ed show tonight. In Canada, the government DOES NOT run health care, they simply abide by the health act, and administer the system, billing, and distribution. The rules are set down in the Act, and everybody follows them.
