Those of you demanding that the rest of us accept HCR(which means accepting the Senate version) |
|
have an OBLIGATION to be pushing the party to commit to introducing legislation to fix it IN 2011. That's on you guys.
We all know that it's the Senate version that gets passed this year. Therefore, you guys who still think the Senate version is worth anything(and ISN'T an insult to Teddy's memory)have an obligation to make sure that the damage is repaired immediately.
If you could commit to pushing like hell for that, you could change how the rest of us saw this bill.

What's wrong with with taxing middle class union workers to cover everyone with plans too expensive to use, in a country with the highest per capita health costs on earth (and rising)

3. It's more on the "STFU, this is the best we can do" crowd. |
|
We all need to work in general, but there's nothing progressives can do on HCR at this point. We've been locked out.

4. Those of you demanding we kill the bill |
|
It's on YOU to come up with something better that will pass NOW and allow coverage for more people, at a lower cost, and with stricter controls, despite opposition and with filibusters. It's on YOU to find a way to pass single payer universal healthcare regardless of elected officials who won't vote for it.
If you could commit to that, you could change how the rest of us see this bill.

6. GOTV, Get some more votes in Congress... |
|
And I'll stand there right next to you. Getting anything done with this train wreck of a Congress is amazing. Getting good things done better means getting better reps.
