1. Eric Cantor
"I've got my government plan and that is all that counts". What a smarmy little prick.

2. With Cantor as their spokesman
The GOP has a great history ahead of it.

4. So just before the video cuts off this douche bag
admits he has a government health plan and admits that it competes with other health plans... totally countering his dumb a$$ lame argument he so proudly spouts out at the beginning of the clip where he says that with a government health plan Americans wouldn't have a choice! Good god man, stop talking out of your mouth and ass at the same time. And for the record, my company health plan sucks. I'm paying over $500 each month to cover my spouse and child and we have a 3K deductible. This is better than some people out there, but I just had a CAT scan for a ruptured disk and was just told that I have to pay 100% of the cost until I paid all of my 3K deductible. Seriously, if a government plan can beat that, I'm down with it.

5. Right winger chew and spew.
The Right wingers are trying to confuse the Single payer issue by asking and polling, are you happy with your health care? Health CARE is not the problem or the issue, it's the Ins. companies.
More spin to keep us dazed and confused.

6. Priceless: I'm under a government health care plan, and it is a plan that competes with other plans
Cantor, that is exactly what I want -- a government plan that competes with other plans.

7. Ahhh, I get it. A "beefy oversight on waste fraud and abuse".
You mean like FUCKING PAYING LEGITIMATE HEALTH-CARE CLAIMS! Something insurance companies consider "wasteful" already. You disgust me you republican piece of shit.

8. I love it!
Finally we have a "real" Democrat (Katrina) asking a question! I love it!! And, as usual, when a Repub is faced with real questions, they stumble and fumble.

"If people have insurance they like ...." Great talking point, Repubs. Just HOW many people DO have an insurance plan that they like?? As usual, forget about the roughly 45 MILLION people withOUT insurance and focus on the lucky few who do. Losers.
