  I am so totally sick of all you people that want to keep your 'perfect private insurance'. It is so obvious you have not had a 'REALLY SERIOUS' disease or lost a loved one to these diseases. Your mailbox so full of bills for co-pays they can't fit all the bills in the box.
  I don't wish disease or lost loves to anyone, but until 'YOU' understand what really happens to some of us you will not know the devastation and despair of losing your 'American Dream ' like you are looking forward to.
  It can happen to you too.
  I have lost my spouse of over 50 years, my home, my life savings is gone, and I am too old to wait for the 'Market to work it out' Better than 2/3rds of it is gone due to Government corruption.
  Other 'Modern Industrialized countries don't force families to lose their homes and livelihoods due to 'Health Care Expense' except for our 'ALL COMPASSIONATE AMERICAN WAY of doing business with 'Rip Off Insurance Companies'
  Do some real research for a change.

  yea like the news story last year about the little black bear cub killed by a head shot, draped with an Obama sign and left on the front lawn of a university in N.C... talk about intimidation tactics..... the "south" (as in mentality)..... is marching again... the President is trying to play it cool and down play the race factor, but we all do know what's going on, and so does the rest of world, the US is no haven of freedom for the people, or equality between the sexes or race/nationality.... the right wing has lost all credibility because we DO understand what the base is all about.... we need a 3rd party option, free of extremists from both sides, although I would probably stand a left winger better who screams "save the whales" than right winger who murders doctors for example.

  yea like the one about the little black bear cub killed with a head shot and left on the front lawn of a university in N.C with an Obama sign..... how's that for intimidation factor? the "south" (as a mentality) marches again and the hatred and bigotry is astounding.... the President is trying to play it cool and downplay racism, we do know what's going on and it is NOT pretty.... in fact it invalidates everything what's said from the right wing, they have lost all credibility because the rest of the world understand what the base is all about..... the country needs a 3rd party option..... a centrist, moderate party that will stay clean of extremism from both sides.... although I think a left wing extremist screaming "save the whales" is probably better than a right wing extremist murdering a doctor for example.
