A couple of thoughts
Just a couple of thoughts on Wednesday's speech. Perhaps Obama could have a chart available, for the visually and intellectually impaired.... showing the cost to the taxpayers for the ER service across this country, that handle the uninsured (including the illegals). That should be a tidy sum and might jerk open some eyes. And for those screaming to not let the Government run their healthcare and want to return to the Constitution (go for it), opt OUT OF MEDICARE immediately. They can go to whatever private plan they want, therefore retaining their 'freedoms'!! As for Georgia wanting to be exempt from any Government plan, including any 'Health Care Refrom' program, let em go too. The savings on Medicare on these two things alone might carry a lot of us that are in true need (in funds needed - the funds everyone is screaming about)

If a bill containing the Public Option hits the Senate Floor and fails, after passing the House, take names and print them in HUGE BOLD LETTERS across every news outlet/source in this country. If the Rethugs want to Fillibuster, let them. Bring in the cots and bring in the cameras. Tired of this crap; these threats. Tired of this hate mongering. Just tired..
