We have been pretty disappointed here for most of the heatlhcare debate. I mean, we lost single-payer before sitting down to bargain, and now barring a Christmas miracle from sixty or so House members we have lost the public option while being mandated to buy coverage. Folks like myself with a pre-existing condition in my case Type 1 Diabetes can still be discriminated against for five long years. Now in retrospect we lost another battle that shows nicely just how bought and paid for our Congress really is.
It appears that besides being two of the most selfish of the greediest and least patriotic among us Mitch McConnell and Rush Limbaugh have a lot in common. They both share the same hypocritical, lying talking points. They both hate working Americans and try to brainwash them into opposing their own interests and in some cases succeed. They both seek to insure that the American economy is ripped apart, as long as their greedy enablers get to pick it clean and get bailed out while the average American suffers. They both seek to blame Democrats for the huge mess they are cleaning up that was made by Republicans.
