1. That couldn't be a worse argument
350 companies, and not one can provide an affordable, accessible solution for most people that maximizes choice?

3. He topped himself with this one:
"We need to make some compromises if we're going to give the American people what they want"...

I wonder if he ever listens to his own interviews.

5. I have to file insurance claims
to those companies. What Lieberman doesn't get is that they put profits ahead of health care. The only way to have quality health care in this nation is to take the profit out of health insurance.

7. We have 350 companies and they still can't do the job, that's why we need single payer.
