"A pattern I'm seeing is that in the beginning, the repubs don't really understand and don't know what to think. But, as they catch on, they become more violent, and really in your face. By the time our limo came to pick us up and Todd, our faithful driver, laid out the red carpet once again, things were getting pretty bad. Many people wanted to know who is behind all of this??? Who's paying us?? One very "bright" woman was angry because the Tea Baggers 'barely had the money to put this together' while we are funded by someone (Soros?) and she DEMANDED to know who!! She screamed that we were "****ing hypocrites". And I mean SCREAMED."
"Oh and I should say they don't catch on very fast, because they have absolutely no sense of humor and don't understand parody!"

Oh really?
I guess I missed the sarcasm with all the Let Them Die screaming and Limos.

Too bad they're underestimating the understanding of those they deride, and overestimating the understanding of those perpetrating the parody. (Alliteration is fun! )
I take it those 'billionaires' are okay with waiving their right to patient confidentiality? Allowing doctors to dicuss their medical history and current health issues with a group of random strangers? Are they good with that?

Could you site where in the current national health care reform bill where this is? I thought it was a Mass. state initative. Or are you just prognosticating the Mass. initative into the national bill? If it's actually in there, I'd like to know.
Billionaires for Wealthcare is a grassroots network of health insurance CEOs, HMO lobbyists, talk-show hosts, and others profiting off of our broken health care system.
We'll do whatever it takes to ensure another decade where your pain is our gain. After all, when it comes to health insurance, if we ain't broke, why fix it?
I did some reading on your Billionaires for Wealth Care site and the more I did the more I wondered if maybe the source they suggested, Daily Kos, might not be the founders of Billionaires for Wealthcare. I am sure that some of the pictures they showed on Kos were of some college students who were playing around several months ago and surely not from San Diega.
Anyway here is an article that a friend posted the day after the caravan started in San Diego. I seems that the San Diegans didn't see the same groups as Kos did.

It's not a Massachusetts initiative. It's how doctors and medical practices in Massachusetts have been forced to deal with the demand of an additional 440,000 newly insured individuals.
What makes you think the U.S. can add 30 million newly insured individuals into the existing system without resorting to group doctor visits, or very lengthy waits for an individual appointment?

Ah, now we see that Kos was the originator of Billionaires for Wealth. I was pretty sure of that since I read on that site and some from Kos. Thanks, kind lady.
You sure did as the other pictures they showed came from the same game playing act by college kids. Ain't it something how these people try to use this make believe crap to try to make the 2nd Teabag Party into something it isn't?
