Let's rename the Health Bill and call it The Ted Kennedy Health Insurance Rescue Package

[Cronus Protagonist]

Maybe it would get more support.

1. That's a disservice to his memory.

... he would never have stood for this POS which essentially will force millions of us into indentured servitude to the insurance companies, at the insistence of the Federal govt. Never.

2. disgusting

let's piss on his grave too shall we?

[hughee99]

4. Amen!

Teddy wanted HCR, and probably would have voted for this as a 1st step, but I think he'd be horrified to have his name on this turd.

3. Are you for real or haven't you been watching the news?

Voters in Massachusetts voted for a guy to take over Teddy's seat knowing he promised to vote against the bill. You're trying to put lipstick on a pig and it's not going to sell.

5. After this SCOTUS ruling you may as well call it dead.

Democracy died today, we are now officially a Fascist nation.

[salguine]

6. If I died and somebody (except you, Cronus, of course) put MY name on this shit-pile of a bill,

I believe I'd burst out of the earth and punch him in the dick.

Let this horrible abortion of a bill DIE DIE DIE.

[Cronus Protagonist]

7. I'm with you on that!

No question it needs to be dumped. Even Obama appears to recognise that since he called for more delays, which is what his Republican friends have been calling for, over the past year!
