Full title: 92% of American adults aren’t going to a doctor because they cannot afford it. The health insurance industry must be dissolved & all of its executives criminally prosecuted for murder, conspiracy, and treason.

    Odd thing to say. Democrats fought FOR the public option.

    If you take the wing of the party that demands unquestioning support for genocide at their word, sure.

    I don’t give the genocide wing the benefit of the doubt. The idea from the outset was to kill the public option with just enough no votes.

    Congratulations on “fixing” healthcare. For the insurance industry and not the people they exploit.

      I don’t have to take any wing at they’re word. I just have to look at their votes. Lieberman is the ire of your disdain. They needed 60 votes. They “only” had 59.

        It’s always hilarious watching the supporters of the wing that killed the public option pretending that Lieberman was the only one.

        Bdn Nelson also blocked the public option so people could go bankrupt and die to pad donors’ wallets.

        And let’s not pretend that Lieberman wasn’t democrats’ VP candidate in 2000.

          If he was a candidate, I guess nobody gave a shit. And when the fuck did I say that I support any wing of the Democratic party. I’m just reminding you of facts. They had 59 votes at their height. That’s a fact.

            And if they didn’t like people going bankrupt and dying to support the insurance industry, they could have changed the senate rules with only 50.

            Since democrats always intended to kill the public option, they didn’t. And you’ll make excuses for them forever.

            The people made it clear that they wanted a public option when they preferred Obama over Clinton. The shit wing of the party that you make excuses for killed it.
