18. Agreed. Seems like he made a deal with hospitals just like the deal with PHARMA.
Looks like the White House gave up the Public Option in exchange for $155 billion over 10 years in "savings" from the hospital industry and their promise not to fight health care "reform".

6. It only took us a week to Save the Whole World!
No, Nancy.
It only took you a week to give a Trillion Dollars to a handful of failed Wall Street Bankers who will never know a moments discomfort while Americans are dieing in the streets.
Thanks for nothing.

NOW we have Your Children’s Money too !!!
And there is not a fucking thing you can do about it!
Now THIS is “Bi-Partisanship” !
Better get used to it!!
Hahahahahahahahaha!

16. No Shit
Look how sheepish Nancy and Harry look in that photo, they KNOW they fucked the American People with a red hot poker. Hank the Skank is an ASSHOLE. Yet Nancy and Harry just stand there. Shameful. Fucking DISGUSTING.

26. And guess which man, soon to be President, helped round
Up the needed number of Senatorial votes for this legislated embezelment

Six months later, after his inauguration, he's all "I never paid attention to the economy. I was too busy paying attention to the two wars."

Yeah right. And bite me.

17. K&R. And here I was, seriously considering returning to the United States.
Edited on Fri Mar-12-10 10:36 PM by tango-tee
I won't do it, due to my health problems. I would eventually turn into nothing but a burden on my family.
