LIEBERMAN: A public option plan is unnecessary. It has been put forward, I’m convinced, by people who really want the government to take over all of health insurance. They’ve got a right to do that; I think that would be wrong.
But worse than that, we have a problem even greater than the health insurance problems, and that is a debt — $12 trillion today, projected to be $21 trillion in 10 years.
WALLACE: So at this point, I take it, you’re a “no” vote in the Senate?
LIEBERMAN: If the public option plan is in there, as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote because I believe debt can break America and send us into a recession that’s worse than the one we’re fighting our way out of today. I don’t want to do that to our children and grandchildren.
It's getting old, frankly. Once again, Joe F'ckin Lieberman has decided that Americans just don't deserve the choice. It's unnecessary for you to have one. The status quo works fine, you see. Why can't you shut up and just accept it?
Seriously Connecticut, what the FUCK were you thinking? Putting someone like this in office just serves to make me despair all over again about how stupid and malleable the US population is. This nation is a long way from being OK, and the likes of Lieberman and the Village are fighting tooth and nail to keep that day from coming.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that's the opinion of most people in this country.
ReplyDeleteIt's only you nut job lefties that want to crush private insurance.
