Listen I know. But don't sell a bad solution to make it seem like you're doing something good. If you can't do it, you can't do it. Cool, health insurance companies have too much cash in the game. We get it. Hey! You just described the co-op plan. |

We get it. Hey! You just described the co-op plan. Indeed I did. I stand corrected. There IS a worse plan than the public option. Although I submit the co-op does not qualify as a plan at all since it's too transparent. |

Well, let's be honest - there are at least two plans worse than the public option - the co-op, and the one that Boz posted where we throw everyone off company plans and force them to fend for themselves. Also, I don't know why anyone was complaining about this special - they let the President of the AMA represent the Republican talking points, although someone needed to tell him to throw "government bureaucrat" in just for good measure. |

I really don't think any defenders of this administration should be making jokes about planted or scripted questions or questioners, do you?
And I am quite happy fending for myself, thank you very much. I'd take that option in a heartbeat.

Yeah, that last press conference, all softballs Boz, no pointed questions at all. The HuffPo "shout out to the Internet" is the biggest mountain out of a molehill ever.
Was I the only one who was wondering why the AMA elected an 80's movies bad guy as their President? Guy looked like one of Hans Gruber's henchmen.

Oh, that's right. I forgot. It's something that reflects negatively on this administration. Obviously, in that case, of course it's not a big deal. No deal at all, actually. Move along. Nothing to see here. I don't know why that silly press corps would even want to ask a single question about it.  |
