Hi,for deciding any health care plans we have to take public opinion first.And personally i agree with government running health care policy.

When they said that 72% are in favor of it that is wrong it is currently 46% it goes to show how far liberal media will go to lie to you. Also i encourage anyone who reads this to support their leaders and to vote this senator Graham back. He is one of the few that is actually representing the people of this great nation.

any person with an education should know that a survey is never correct. there are so many errors in it. the problems can vary in many ways: asking only self proclaimed democrats/republicans, phrasing the questions in favor of the answer you want :ex. Do you support Obama’s healthcare plan? if not, why do you oppose healthcare? questions like that can confuse the public because yes, people do want healthcare but they dont want obama’s healthcare, but since that is not an answer, they go for obama’s. It also depends on the “class” they talk to, if the person is hardworking and earns a living for themselves, they would probably say no. but for some1 living off the welfare system and they live to get money from the government; of course they are going to say yes.
All im saying is dont trust what the surveys say. Most news sources support obama and will do anything to get things his way, find the facts yourself, dont get them from biast locations.
Graham FTW

If they are really that sure a public option for that would cover about 2% of over 200 million people is going to destroy every private healthcare insurance company in the US, then why not stop there? The post office is sure putting UPS and FedEx in a bad spot, and you know those mailman are just waiting for the day when they can rule over every package in America! WHAT A JOKE, IT’S JUST ABOUT POWER POINTS

well bob, how much do you think you should have to pay for your healthcare. Have you looked at the estimates for Social Security, by 2037 more paying out in benefits than payroll contributions coming in to cover it, sounds like a well run gov’t program. Why not some well thought out reforms such as forcing medical schools and universities to increase their admission and graduation rates for doctors. More doctors in our healthcare system increases competition and access to physicians. Also, why not capping what they charge for tuition so people aren’t graduating with 300k, or 400k in debt. How about gov’t paying tuition for Dr’s in exhange for 3-5 years of service and gov’t supported clinics. How about a VAT tax on tobacco, alcohol, items and using that to help fund insurance for families at or below poverty level. How about having states change their laws so that insurance companies across the country can compete with one another, instead of this fuedal type system we have now where basically a few insurance companies in each state monopolize the system. Maybe its just easier to not think to deeply on the issue and educate one’s self,and instead give more money and control to the gov’t to decide our healthcare for us, after all the gov’t does soooo many things very cost effectively and with so little corruption, waste and fraud.

I dont like Senator Lindsey “AMNESTY” Graham, nor do I like Senator Dodd. I think they are BOTH MORONS!
How any sane American can think that these guys, or any other politician can run a trillion dollar health care business (check the 2000 page house plan) effeciently is incredibly laughable!
These guys cant lead ants to a picnic let alone manage the health and welfare of 300 million Americans.
If this does pass the Senate. My vote will be against anyone in the senate or house who voted for it.
Its a disaster waiting to happen. Its a power grab by the government.
Its a disgrace.

DEABSHEEPLE POSTS,- How can Sen. Graham sit there with his fully paid goverment health ins. and say to the american people that they do not deserve the same health care plan if they wish. What a piece of work!!
SEN.-Graham says things like that because he is a paid off CORRUPTED POLITICIAN. His incentive to have a G.R.H.C.P.arrive DOA is to make his CORPORATE MASTERS happy. To you the SHEEPLE who are uninformed. GIANT corporate CEO’s have bought most of our CROOKED politicians and own them lock stock, and pork barrell. Politicians, are similar to GIANT Corporations. Politicians exist to be re elected. GIANT CORPORATE CEO’S exist only to serve themselves and shareholders. And the only way to get re elected is to have the support of GIANT CORPORATE CEO’s. In return for sitting up, rolling over , and stooping and pooping on demand, AMERICA’s politicians, recieve large donations from GIANT CORPORATE CEO’S. Of course SEN. GRAHAM is two faced. Accepting the best health coverage the government can provide for him and his family. Then turning around and proudly saying, whats good for me, is not good for the SHEEPLE of the great UNITED STATES.
A partial list of politicians who have had their opinions bought and paid for
by the M.I.C.or other lobbyist groups. And this group is not part specific-ALL CROOKED CORRUPTED POLITICIANS- GRASSLY, CANTOR, BAUCUS, WEINER, BOEHNER, GRAHAM and many many more.

What I can’t figure out about you so called conservative thinkers is that you all fail to remember that our economy has done about the same or worst but never better under the osmosis of the Republican party. The Bush administration implemented a surge alright, but the only thing that successfully surged was our national deficit. The question is not rather or not we need national health care reform, the question should be what do we have to do or give up to make it work.
A nation with misplaced priorities is a nation destined to be doomed. We can ensure that all Americans have access to health care if we get rid of the miscellaneous spending:

Tony Dockery – Nice as healthcare for all sounds, where in the US CONSTITUTION is the federal government given the responsibility to provide healthcare for all?

With millions uninsured in this country and mass unemployment what choices do they have now. Seems most republican senators and congressmen stick to the same ol argument of threatened rationed medical care or long waits at clinics etc etc. But the facts are that it is better to have a turn in the waiting line or see a mandated Dr than not having any health care at all…Greedy health insurance companies manage to reap in good profits along with paying millions in bouneses as well as giving out millions in political contributions to keep things the way they are..me I think they should all go belly up its time for a change and all politicians who still favor the same ol same ol should be thrown out of office. The rich and powerful will always have good health care so why are they so concerned about us getting the same thing…greed…
