Joe Lieberman is a decent, genuine, religiously-observant man.
While such an individual sadly has NO PLACE in Congress, I am glad that he is there. He represents his people, rather than the vermin in the Democrat party. If he were to be a Republican, he similarly WOULD NOT tolerate any under-handed nonsense.
While I find many of Senator Lieberman’s positions to be too liberal, at least I know that he is a genuinely good man, doing what he thinks is right—NOT what Nancy S-T-R-E-T-C-H Face Pelosi or Harry Ried tell him to do.
In a party and World that seem to have NO SHAME, Senator Lieberman is a mensch and genuine statesman.

It sounds like the Insurance companies with the help of obstructionists Republicans by delaying the bill were able to buy enough time to buy out some of the Democrats to change the bill in favor of Insurance companies. This is known as “MONEY TALKS”. Insurance companies lobby is hard at work trying to buy out the congress. With enough time they have succeeded with the help of Lie berman.

Obama is a stupid socialist and he’s going to get a surprise when people evict him from the white house in 2012. Nobody I know thinks this health care debacle is a good idea. It’s as stupid as Obama.

Schumer is a spin doctor.He can not tell Democrat voter’s the truth. The truth is the public option is not free health care as most Democrat voters think it is. Lieberman told the truth. The public option is not free it is going to raise the cost of health care for all citizens and limit the benefits to every one.The kicker is he can lie about the health care bill now because it won’t go in to affect till 2012 after the election and he is not telling the public that the taxes to pay for health care goes in to affect when the bill is passed in Congress if it passes.Schumer and Obama are not being truthful with citizens.Get smart! Ask your self why the bill won’t be posted on the internet for 72 hours before the bill is votede on. Obama says you don’t have the right to read the bill!!!

If you are SERIOUSLY INTERESTED in ‘getting at the Truth’ Follow The Money!!! Be Sure to follow the trail of JOE LIEBERMAN and EVAN BAYH and their WIVES! (There’s an awful lot of Money Involved…)
Couple that with, Washington Post – ABC News Poll, Oct. 15 – 18, 2009; “Poll shows support for public option” – 57% Support and 40% Oppose (possible 3 point deviation.) (There are a number of Polls that have been taken. This Poll appears to be “conservative, if not ‘middle-of-the-road’ on the subject.)
The Question that was put to those Voters Polled, was; “Should we have the government create a new health insurance plan to compete with private health insurance plans?”
Interesting to note, some quarters are “coming up with” Poll numbers in Direct Contradiction to the Poll Numbers offered by The Washington Post – ABC News who presents their organization as “an unbiased news organization, which seeks the truth.”

Absolutely amazing how people keep stating that “the majority of America favors a public option”. The polls are mixed with most using sampling rates far to small to validate that kind of statement. Take it to reconciliation (Nuclear Option) so you can own the result. The public option provides the path to universal health care; providing outrageous taxes for little access to care. Just as they have in Canada.

Just WHO do you think is CONTROLLING the cost of Services, Fees, Drugs, Equipment, etc… NOW???
REAL AMERICA is very familar with this; “Your (Insurance) Provider says they don’t cover the drug on this prescription.” Or “the cost for the MRI is $3,000.-, your (Insurance) Provider says your co-pay is only $600.- (and you’re paying $350.-/month, your Fortune 1000 Employer’s paying the majority of the monthly cost, for the coverage for you and your Spouse.) AGAIN, WHO do you think is Setting the Prices and “Calling ALL the Shots” in our present MONOPOLIZED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM???
