Obama's excellent strategy

[Felix The Assassin]

This is a very good strategy. Stall, talk, stall, talk some more. Make some plans to meet again in the future. That is a very well thought out stratagem.

Only problem is, it's with the defense of the nation and national interests. If, just if, he could use these tactics on his obama-care, maybe he could understand just how screwed up it will be if it's pushed through too fast!

How much do you want congress to stall on health care? They've been at it for months hashing that one out.

Is your current insurance plan good? What about the insurance for all your relatives? Don't tell me there's not someone who's suffering under the current system.

My grandmother, fairly well aged, is having to look to Mexico to buy her meds. That's F'd up.

Dammit! Crap like this pisses me off. The military HATES this kind of pussyfooting. What we(the military) prefer is ;

1. go in there and kick-ass, take names, try them for war crimes.
2. don't do anything.

What we DON'T like is;

1. go in there and kick a little bit of ass, but then hang around and try to be their friends.


What should be done is MAKE A DECISION!!!! Right or Wrong, just make a decision.

It's war, not speed chess. One person's stalling maybe another's due dilligence.

it sure is TL the best, I work to pay for stuff, I don't have insurance TL I pay for it myself... Now don't go off on the emotional road TL. I didn't say there wasn't a need for Health care reform, just not this turkey. Health reform needs three things.
1) remove the prexisting conditions crap
2) Tort reform, (Texas has tort reform and the lowest health costs in the nation)
3)Health care providers can't charge cash customers one penny more then they will except from an insurance company. which is usually 50 cents on the dollar, or discriminate against Cash customers. You take care of those things and you will take care of the majority of true problems in health care.

Which will be more American lives lost for yet another horseshit politician.

Is that so? That's not very proveable. I note a lack of anger for the last seven years of previous managment, who has without a doubt caused lost lives and in fact put us to where we are today. I mean seven years vs 9 months, any sense of fairness has to be way off not to get that.

Also those boots on the ground in Afganistan sign up for what they get. They have to hold the line whether command has a head up the ass or is simply a deliberate planner and/or a consensus building leader.
