Well, Mr. Weitman, I hope you have put on your asbestos underwear because you are about to be flamed by the True Believers who can never admit they are wrong about anything--See: GW Bush.
I wrote about the patience of Obama and believe you are absolutely right. It is going to take a long time to undo the damage, esp when they are still trying to inflict more. The ones who are going to get it right are the voters of the next generation.
I just blogged a story today about a young lady who had an accident. Medical bills over $50,000. Her insurance paid $600. She HAD insurance.
Average cost of a health insurance for a family is $4000 per year.
A good friend is over 50, female, and has high blood pressure. The ONLY health insurance she can get is $18,000 a year.
This is reality. The only way the Medical Industrial Complex can make money is by screwing us. That's why they pay bribes, er, make huge campaign contributions to politicians in both parties.
Get a clue. You have no health plan at all, just unrealistic dreams that no one is paying any attention to at all.
And if you don't like being called a conservative, then you shouldn't have sided with them forty years ago, Mr. Goldwater.
One more time, Mr. Gibbons...
Where is your plan for health care reform that will cover the 46 million of us who do not have health care and how much will it cost?

With your name, your credibility is 10% with the people of Nevada. But you're calling names is 100% consistent with conservative arguments.

"Neither using Bill Clinton as an excuse nor being a self-righteous right-wing republican makes what John Ensign did remotely excusable."
Nor does name-calling, which is the last resort of the bankrupt ideology of the Right. As we see here over and over again, that's all they have left.
The main tactic of the Right seems now to be blame everyone but your own.
