That alone is worth it.

Hopefully he will take Kucinich with him...

[msanthrope]

1. Well, if that doesn't convince people to pass it, I don't know what will. n/t

[villager]

2. "Leave the Kucinich, take the Oxycontin"

Other than that, wow, that alone *might* make this insurance giveaway nearly worth it...

[liberal N proud]

3. That would be the biggest benefit from reform

Please, Oh Please let it pass

We could be rid of the old windbag once and for all!!!!!

[marmar]

4. I hope he's a Disgusting Racist Fascist Pig of his word......

[Zoeisright]

5. Yet another reason to pass it. Get Mr. Anal Cyst out of the country.

What a fucking pig.

6. More damage control? How many thousands of threads on this non-issue does DU need?

9. Public Health Care - Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS)

http://www.costarica.com/retirement/cost-of-living/health-care/

Hahaha, CR also has mandatory universal health care:

"Costa Rica’s public health insurance system, commonly known as the Caja, is available country-wide to all citizens and legal residents. There are ten major public hospitals – four in San Jose, including the Children’s Hospital – affiliated with the Caja. For non-emergencies and everyday medical care, small clinics, known as EBAIS (pronounced ay-vy-ice), are located in almost every community.

The cost to affiliate with CCSS is approximately 10 to 11.5% of your income; alternatively, residents may become members via ARCR, which provides a streamlined and simple joining process. Please note that for those under age 55, Caja payments include a mandatory pension payment, which will be disbursed beginning at age 65. Keep in mind that the Caja’s low cost and high quality attract many to its hospitals and clinics, and wait times are long for anything from a routine checkup to an important surgical procedure."

10. You had me going along with you until your worthless snipe at the end. (NT)

11. Don't they want the same thing? For HCR to fail? Does it matter to people who,

unlike them, do not have any or good enough insurance that they are coming to it from opposite poles? Doubt it. They are both ideologues, except one is more influential that the other. Guess who?

[Tesha]

15. Dennis Kucinich *MOST ASSUREDLY* does *NOT* want healthcare reform to fail.

But what we're being offered isn't health care reform. It is,
*AT BEST*, health insurance reform and at worst, just a giant
taxpayer-funded transfer of wealth to the already-wealthy health
insurance industry.

And Dennis is precisely correct to oppose that.

It's a shame more Democrats aren't behind health care reform
instead of health insurance reform!

14. yep, that was a bad idea on Kucinich Underground

go KU!!!

12. I think you're misreading it...

"Responding to a caller who asked him where he would go for health care if Congress enacts reform, Limbaugh replied,

I don't know. I'll just tell you this, if this passes and it's five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented -- I am leaving the country. I'll go to Costa Rica."

Unfortunately, he's just leaving the country for health care. I don't think he's talking about leaving for good.

[Subdivisions]

13. Nice. Another post about limpnuts leaving the country if HCR passes to

go with all the others that have already been posted.

[unapatriciated]

16. best argument for passing it that I've heard...

I hope Kucinich stays

[zbdent]

17. and Rush can be taken at his word ...

19. I'll pay for his ticket!

Seriously, I would help pay to help the these neo-con charlatans lead their misguided flocks away from America.

They can't stand the ideas of freedom and equality, and they have zero respect for our Constitution. If they ever regain control of our government, they will essentially destroy the Constitution, once and for all.

22. Maybe he'll go back to the Dominican Republic.

He'll need to get his own prescription for Viagra for this trip, though.
