They may be able to argue that it's "passage" was unconstitutional. I took out a personal health care policy today. It's called AR-15. Pelosi said something about kicking down doors, and I thought that was offensive. I took it as a threat. Not only to me but to anyone who understands what freedom is, or that it is our birthright, and we are compelled to protect it, at all times at any cost it must be defended.

that's not the least bit hysterical.

I wish they would vote soon im getting tired of seeing Pelosi on TV. If this bill does pass I guess you can say we no longer live in a Democratic society. Being forced to do something they a person doesnt want to do doesn't sound like freedom to me. If this bill does pass I would hate to be a Democrat up for election. Im just glad I have way better medical insurance for me and my family than this worthless bogus insurance is going to be.

It appears that what is actually in the Senate bill (hardly anything) or the proposed reconciliation amendments (I posted that two or three times) remains a mystery to some.

It seems what some of you "know" about healthcare reform are just some scary ultra-right rumors from last summer.

None of which is in there

I don't want my neighbor owning a gun, but it looks like I won't have a choice there. How come all the bullsh*t the Republicans passed that I thought was an infridgement on my rights is part of a Democratic Society, but something you don't like is not? Typical double standard right wing crap

i own a lot of guns, doesn't make me any more dangerous than i would be with none. i'm not sure how owning a gun infringes on anyone else's rights. but you thinking no one should own one, and thereby forcing me to give mine up would most definitely infringe my rights. you don't like them, don't own them. it's funny, those of us who have them, couldn't care less if you own one or not. but you can't return that favor i guess?
