We know the President was telling the truth.
Did any of the "news" shows explain that or did they all treat it as a he said, he said?

I would have thought that that would be part of the story.

1. Haven't heard news, but then
2 stalwart Dems, prolly baucus and someone else, added a section to some bill requiring that people must PROVE they are entitled, or that they're not undocumented, before receiving any 'benefits.' So as usual Dems screw things up again, because doing so suggests that there might have been a QUESTION about what the President had said. This point was made in House session on
'reprimand' today.

2. Actually, they're treating it as Wilson HAS A GOOD POINT!!!
And what he believes/says has SOME JUSTIFICATION!!!

Every fucking time I tuned into CNN, THIS is the angle they were taking!!!

I have watched minimal news this week except for Rachel, Keith and Ed...

3. Article from Daily Kos explains -
- The way HR3200 is written, everyone - including non-citizens - would be eligible to purchase the public option. BUT, only citizens can get the "affordability credits" to assist with the premium.
