No kidding, anything that is this important, affects the lives of so many people, many literaly, should be studied at depth. If you are even able to get a respone on the subject from a rep, such as Olver, all you here is "I think it's great" or "we need this". No one seems able to go into an in depth explaination on the subject. Tsongas gave 3 different answers to the same question, these people don't even know what they are pushing on the citizens with such fervor. It might be OK but I get a lttle leery when there is such a hard sell going on over something there is so many questions about. I think it is to be just a feather in obama's cap, "SEE I FIXED HEALTHCARE", well if the treatment is worse than the disease, I don't want it. Lets slow down and get a real good look at it.

I agree with this mental patient. The government has been controlling our brains via radio waves for too long now, and it's time we stood up!

These decisions have very little to do with our welfare being at the fore front,its more political chess moves,some how the administration became over confident and allowed themselves to be painted into a corner,now they have no choice left,they are forced to go nuclear,and that's exactly what the opposition wants and the rest will be voting history,if this is an example of how well they can maneuver controlling both houses I really fear to imagine what they are doing international.

I know I don't want the federal government or anyone else for that matter making healthcare decisions for myself or anybody in my family.
This is a private and personal decision that must be made in private, and the last thing I want is some jackass out of the fed. government trying to talk someone i love into ending their life because of the cost of a medical procedure.
This is nothing more than state run infanticide, and if they are given the power to do this, then next step will be total control of every segment of our personal lives, inlcuding where to live, work, get educated, etc,.
Thanks Obama, but no thanks.

Daily Horoscope for January 8

Sagittarius

You'll feel friendly with everyone you meet today, and you might even be lucky financially. Money should be coming in, but going out rather fast as well... Astral influences will keep you on your toes, and will probably make you flirtatious, but they could also make you moody. This makes it tricky for close relationships to run on an even keel. The truth is, perhaps you don't want too much closeness at the moment. Your partner probably knows that you're often like this, by now, anyway.
