Meanwhile, it appears Obama must have lost the support of his other California buddy...

Feinstein skeptical about health care costs

Old people suck! Unproductive slouches.

And not one sentence on any details. "We'll cut waste". Ok, tell me how ? How much waste is there when you have no details ? Who in medicare/medicaid will stand up and say "Yes, my department has alot of waste..take my budget away" ?

I can only LOL when I read these types of articles.

"Don't worry, we're the government. We're here to help".

I think Nancy Pelosi has brain damage from excessive use of botox.

I guess it was operating just hunky dory until this healthcare bill came up.
Now it's full of waste and redundancy.

I just can't fathom how they can stand up there and say things like this with a straight face.

Someone please tell Nancy she is a plus to the conservative movement in this country.

Keep talking Nancy, we need you.

How about cutting welfare and free health care to lazy bums first.

We could save a ton of money by not having to buy losers food, housing, healthcare etc.

GET A DAMN JOB!



The botox needle was inserted through the hole in her head.

Obama stated "We will take the waste out of medicare"...but he didn't explain what the waste is...could that be that diabetic supplies won't be covered anymore? Could it be that many other things are labeled "waste" by Obama?

We won't know if he doesn't makes it completely clear what the wates or cuts will be...without an written explanation, how can you trust a guy that flip flops on more than one ocation?

Well, at this point, I don't trust anyone 100%. However, I do like how the doomsayers of the public health option are now not liking the proposed cuts in Medicare and Medicaid. Aren't they the same people who despise government-run programs and government waste? Seems to me that they should love Pelosi for this move.

I'm not a person that likes to "squeeze" anyone and watch them suffer, but maybe it might be an eye and mind opening experience to walk in someone else's shoes in order to truly understand the plight of those who are woefully underinsured or completely uninsured.
