Which, is, of course, why Clinton lost his majority 2 years into his 8 year term, the GOP had a modicum of fiscal responsibility and non-interventionism (until "Their Guy" got in, of course), and the Pres had to "lighten up" and move a bit "right" or "center-ish."Obama is doing well and improving by the minute. History shows us successful Democratic Presidents are met with anger from right wing extremists. Happens every time!
Apparently the Dem leadership does, it's such a crisis and emergency and all.You expect this sort of overhaul to take effect immediately? Seriously?~yawn~I'm about done with it anyway. There's an ever-growing part of me that hopes and prays the right gets exactly what they want; that we just keep the status quo and keep padding the pockets of multi-billion dollar insurance and pharm---
NO ONE is against health care reform! They are simply against THIS overly intrusive, massively expensive, control-freak BURDEN on the folks!
Why are you not upset at the special interests such as trial lawyers who get NO checks at all in any of these bills put forth? Malpractice reform should be part of ANY health care reform! These trial lawyers making BILLIONS off of mostly frivolous lawsuits cause defensive medicine, which FEEDS "big pharm" AND the insurance companies, who get to charge ASTRONOMICAL rates to doctors! AND it drives up costs unnecessarily.
Zealots say to this, "Well, malpractice costs are only 2%" like that's small? What the fuck do you think 2% of 1/6th of our economy is, peanuts?
For this deal, they need ALL revenue and savings they can generate, but they're sneezing at 2% of 1/6th of our economy? SNEEZING at HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of savings?
C'mon now, if you think special interests aren't driving this on the Dem side, you're clueless.
And I know you better than that.
What did the Republicans do to *fix* this problem when they had control?
And tort reform is a state issue, not Federal.

You're right, except Dem senators like Kent Conrad, Mary Landrieu, or Blanche Lincoln are hardly "right wing extremists". You think FDR had this much trouble getting the New Deal through his own party?
So based on what I would say is your correct assessment, Obama is an unsuccessful Democratic President.
Yes, and he is going to go down in history beating Carter out of 1st place for the WORST president in history if he continues his extreme left ideology.

Weather tort reform is or is not a state issue, all states need to be doing that, Bush tried to get tort reform through to control the ever rising costs of health care due to the lack of tort reform and the democratic congress turned it down. Wanna know why, Howard Dean, one of your guys admits that the trail lawyer lobbyists are in the back pocket of the democratic party. BTW it is estimated to cost 380 billion dollars a year, in defensive medicine practices.
As often as not, those tests are run by doctors doing the CYA.So?
Do you think people are going to stop demanding all these bells and whistles? Do you really think that patients are not going to demand MRIs, CTs, PETs, etc?
LOL

Bullshit. I see this day in and day out. PATIENTS are demanding these tests. And get royally pissed if the docs don't order them. Does "defensive medicine" exist? Absolutely. But I can guarandamntee you if you were to do away with lawsuits altogether, you'd STILL have them demanding *everything*.
then why is it such a rush to pass this when it doesnt even kick in till 2013?
