If you walk into the ER with a mosquito bite, you'll be handed the $500 bill.
But you'll get treated. You won't have the government denying you healthcare because it doesn't deem you worthy of treatment.

Well what makes it so funny, is that half of it they were saying before he was even elected. It must be horrible to be a right winger, their entire life is based on fear and lies.

Congress does not have its own personal plan. They participate in the same health plan as every other federal civilian employee.

What makes you think the government will deny necessary care? My girlfriend is a veteran. She's never been denied at the local VA hospital. Her care is excellent. I'm curious as to where you guys dream this stuff up.

That would differ from an HMO in what way?

Of course not as expected. In fact hussein obama was very jovial in pointing out that it was not about him because he had the best doctors one can get.

Well, there's always episodic envy, hatred, and ignorance to look forward to. Still not much a lifestyle, really...

You can read the health care bill online now, in it's present form..I won't tell you how to get there, let's see how smart you are. Read and try to understand what it says. It's crazy. By the way, when you get off your kool aid high, stop pointing fingers at the scary mean republicans and educate yourself. It might come in handy

Stop making things up. He said it's not about him because it's about the American people.

You would too if you were President of the United States. It comes with the job. You can't tell them to go away...
