I asked a question at the Sestak/Toomey Townhall on Healthcare
I asked if we should look at the best practices of other industrialized nations to lower costs.

Sestak sidestepped the question and talked about what he wanted to talk about almost in a Palin like way moving to talk about competition and the public option.

Toomey lied about how socialized medicine will kill us all and how in Brittain they are rationing surgeries by lottery or some other fucking nonsense.

Toomey is a better debater unfortunately. Sestak scored some points but he didn't really do well against Pat.

1. If Sestak should win, can we trust him?

2. Well, let's see.
He voted for FISA and he voted to fund the war - after saying he wouldn't.

He only became a Democrat when he decided to run for Congress - he was an "independent."

So who the hell knows? I don't believe anything they say anymore.

3. Good question - would've been nice if they had answered
If they never want to answer (or just want to lie), then why bother taking questions?
