Those who will work to see that lawmakers like Max Baucus will NEVER be elected again, check-in!
Baucus just released his version of the bill and it's a downright disgrace and outrage. Summary here (with link to pdf at TPM): http://journals.democraticunderground.com/berni_mccoy/750

We must send a message to Democrats who think they can put forth legislation as evil as this. Let's show them we won't tolerate another Max Baucus in Congress!

2. Right here! And I've got experience!
We've taken down quite a few in our day.
Most recently, Joe Lieberman.

3. Here! Baucus just came out and said it...

His proposal fairly screams:

"Poor people should not have the same quality of health care as wealthy people."

4. Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum are actually service levels in the bill.

And medicaid isn't one of those.

9. Dean sent out campaign material in Montana, raising funds for Leahy of VT!
Yep, I am sending Leahy a check. Good man in my book, as is Dr.Dean.

Will send what I can to any DEM senators who will seriously work to yank that wanker Max from his chairmanships. He won his election last fall. I will do whatever it takes to make damned sure it was the last win he ever sees.

No mo Max for this Montana voter. Yank the wanker.

12. I hardly care at this point.
Keep cheerleading for the President, if it makes you feel better. I have little hope that the Democratic Party can represent the people. They're certainly better than the alternative, still, but they are also tools of the oligarchy. That is becoming quite apparent.

18. Don't worry his replacement won't be any better.
We'll get someone who talks the talk in the primary but when the rubber meets the road they'll vote for the corporate team.

27. No Democratic Party money for those who vote against Democrats and the American people!
Strip them of their Committee seats. Not a dime of DNC, DSCC, DCCC money to the Blue Dog traitors. Primary any Congresscritter who blocks the public option!

28. Check, but he'll be 73 in 2014 so he may be done anyway.
Just in case though, I'd be more than happy to help.

29. Sadly, Baucus probably isn't at all worried about losing his seat
His work for Big Pharma & Big Insurance during this healthcare debate will be rewarded with a multi-million dollar consulting gig if he loses next election. He isn't worried at all.

32. Baucus is a republican's dream come true
He's got a D by his name, he's a crook and they can use in their 2010 campaign ads.

33. That bill is a crime spree
Extortion, racketeering, funneling the last of our wealth to the top 1%.

What a disgrace that a so-called DEMOCRAT proposed this criminal piece of shit.

35. This bill is an outrage.
Edited on Wed Sep-09-09 12:41 PM by tosh
It opens doors even wider for more state-level manipulation by Inscos and their pocket puppets.

edited for bad pre-post edit, LOL.
