housesub4you -> Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/16/2010 9:34:35 AM)

Well, some in the GOP still refuse to admit the truth about the h
Health Care Bill and abortion and are carry things a little to far. 

http://thinkprogress.org/2010/03/16/gohmert-show-you-abortion/

They always claim the bill does fund abortion, but they never point out the area in the bill that directly states that, in fact even the Catholic Hospital Org supports the bill and says it does not fund abortion

Apparently there are some democratic members of congress who have read the bill and disagree. If it weren't in there, they wouldn't mind voting for the bill. What are they afraid of ?

He convinced me.

There's a whole lot of demons out there.

Them thar Republicans sure do have 'em some smarts.

To pass this so-called health care reform will be a symbolic victory at best and far too much like other 'reforms.'

Kinkroids, in America...reform is the re-allocation of profits. As long as there is paper wealth for the capitalist to be divided...he goes along.

Ex: Reform or deregulation of the airlines resulted in local hub monopolies. All of the so-called discount airlines are gone save one, Southwest which had to catch up and play 'follow-the-leader' pricing to compete. Not much of a discount now.

Deregulation of Ma Bell resulted in 9 regional monopolies. (baby bells) For the local dial-tone...we've been raped every since.

Deregulation of elec. power, created manipulation and fraud in parts of the east and almost throughout the west and cost trillions rather than bring in any efficiencies.

There is no real reform in America, only profit interests.

How disingenuous.

Unless abortion is specifically excluded, it is (obviously, duh) provided as any other medical procedure.

Two different organizations of bishops have come out against the bill. They would seem to speak more fully for Catholicism than a hospital organisation, n'est ce pas?




servantforuse -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/16/2010 6:31:39 PM)

The democrats do not seem to have the votes..




DarlingSavage -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/16/2010 7:03:45 PM)

Rachel Maddow points out where abortion is mentioned in the healthcare reform bill in this video.




servantforuse -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/16/2010 7:32:07 PM)

That solves it. The dems shouldn't have any trouble getting the votes now.




willbeurdaddy -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/17/2010 1:07:01 AM)

Too bad Rachel Maddow is a liberal hack and intentionally ignores the real issues on abortion in the Senate bill.

there are so many loopholes the restrictions on abortions are useless




DarlingSavage -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/17/2010 9:41:38 AM)

Whatever, she clearly points out where he is LYING!

No, she doesnt, because he isnt lying. In the pages he cited are the reasons why abortion restrictions in the Senate bill are impotent. She is lying by omission for only focusing on a few words to the exclusion of others. She is an agenda driven, failed talk show host, and nothing she says can be taken at face value.




DarlingSavage -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/17/2010 10:08:16 AM)

Whatever.

What's the big deal about funding abortions? The procedure is legal is it not?

Maybe it isn't covered by current medical insurance policies, though? I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

I agree it has been too far watered-down, but there are still important provisions that protect the insured regarding pre-existing conditions and limitations on insurers being able to deny coverage to those who become ill.

Jet Blue, Spirit, Airtran, Midwest Express, USA3000, are just a few discount airlines that come to mind.

And Southwest has remained profitable when American, United, and Delta were losing money.

Not to mention the fact that Southwest does not use a hub system.




Brain -> RE: Conservatives are going a little crazy with the lies (3/17/2010 1:34:22 PM)

They are going alot crazy with the lying is and it is astonishing, they have no notion of shame whatsoever.

Quite frankly when they are not lying they have nothing to say.

It is not covered by Medicare/Medicaid. It was one of the compromises made to get them passed in the first place. I agree if youre saying it SHOULD be covered if its legal, but even many pro-choicers dont.

Its generally covered under private policies.
