   Note well — Obama admitted REJECTING federal government insurance when he was in the U.S. Senate — it wasn’t good enough for himself and his family.

   He used his WIFE’S private insurance.

   And the “public option” insurance is worse than the insurance Obama rejected for his own family …

   While I agree with most of the criticisms of the Post Office (and I have a lot more than most), it is officially a quasi-private company with a government subsidy for health and retirement benefits. Its biggest problem isn’t that it’s run by the government, or even that it’s tied irrevocably to a declining industry (written communications). The problem is that it is totally dominated by unions.

    I get what you’re saying, but it might be more accurate to describe it as a government owned corporation. In that, it is very similar to other “stellar” GSEs like Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, AIG, GM…

    Oh, crikey. Obama calls on a 13-year-old girl to lament the “mean signs” about health care reform. “How do kids know what’s true.”

    We all know that the biggest problem with controlling health care costs is the epidemic of medical malpractice lawsuits. Contrary to Obama’s slur against doctors (Obama said doctors will do whatever procedure gets them the most money from insurance companies), doctors do not want to practice defensive medicine and give 25 tests, most of them unnecessary except as a tool against malpractice lawyers. Doctors also must give out 35 page informed consent forms, most of which are devoted to explaining highly improbable potential results. Yet the Obama/Pelosi “health care reform bill”, makes it much easier to sue doctors and nurses. Obama and Dodd are totally beholden to the Association of Trial Lawyers of America. They accept huge sums of money from the trial lawyers and Arlen Specter has just introduced bills which are sure to pass that make it much easier to sue technology companies and he also introduced a bill that gave special tax deductions to triallawyers. In the Specter bill, malpractice lawyers can deduct all the expenses of litigation as soon as they accrue instead of waiting until there is a settlement or verdict. Specter would not promote this type of loophole to anybody but medical malpractice lawyers. No wonder Specter became a Democrat. His hands are out and ATLA’s big bucks are in.

    Actually, the general public is allowed no where near these TownHall propaganda shows for the media. The Obama administration hand picks the people that get to attend and uses the Secret Service to check them out ahead of time.

    Then they are handed cards with pre-screened questions to ask Barry Soetoro.

    I do not see any where in the Constitution giving the Federal Government the right to put on propaganda events where they lie to the American public. I do not believe that is one of our God given rights under the first amendment.

    If they were truly Town hall meetings, they would be more like the Congressional meetings we all have seen as of late where people are outraged with our Government.
