Six pages of people threatening each other with guns, frying pans, rolling pins, and everything else they can get their hands on; or if not threatening, at least putting it out there for future reference.

That's what this has come to, and that's a real shame.

The truth is, you'll all be here calling each other names and Internet-shouting at each other six weeks from now, six months from now, and probably for the rest of your lives.

The Internet tough guy routine has played out just about everywhere else on the web, but it's still a vital form of communication here.

Since they (and neither do I) don't like this health care bill, why don't they point their rage at the very industry that not only created the impetus for the bill, but also, in many ways, wrote the damn thing.

"The business model of American health insurers is basically: try to get healthy customers as clients, and then resist as long as possible when it comes to paying out claims.

That's actually not an indictment or a criticism.

It's just the way our system works, and it's screwed up."


The biggest deficit piggy bank breaker is the cost of health care and letting fat cat CEOs literally get away with murder is not a good solution.
