McCainCare: The Alternative GOP Healthcare “Plan”

You know javaz, I hope they go even further right. Let them marginalize themselves out of existence. We need a “New Whig Party”. Our republic is strong enough to formulate new party’s

Good post KQ, Been reading about some of this since this morning on the “lefty blogs”.
B-B-B-But Rep Boner said some thing else this summer:

In a blog post in June, Boehner wrote, “Quality health coverage must exist for every American, regardless of preexisting health conditions.”
That was from his own congressional “column.
“You Lie”??

Shouldn’t the story be “Why are the Dems even close in this Upstate district?” The registration is 2-1 for the Goobers.
Why is Owens even close?

Seminar: A weekly discussion. First topic: What number of parties leads to the most progressive and effective society?

This is the search page from “The Nation” on “German Party Politics”
http://www.thenation.com/search/index.mhtml?search=German+party+politics&x=28&y=7
The fist one listed is from the the Nov. 2 issue and it does offer many thoughts on the multi-party system. One of the points made by Katha Pollitt stands out for me. That a smaller party (in a leadership coalition) may be tainted for a long time if that coalition fails in its leadership. Much like the Social Democrats(SPD) are now. One of many thoughts I have on this system.

Neutering Net Neutrality

He may not, but his puppet masters($donors) do. He has been pushing against “net neutrality” for years. It even came up in the debates with Obama.

Something else to read on my pet project from Raw Story:
http://rawstory.com/2009/10/mccain-net-neutrality/

I also rechecked McCain’s web site again today. Odd, he still doesn’t have any brags on his new bill. Is it dead or does he think he might be able to slip this through?

» Posted By bito On November 3, 2009 @ 2:21 pm

I need to make a correction. McCain is no longer on the committee of jurisdiction. Wanna bet he is still raking in the contributions from the telecoms?

» Posted By bito On November 3, 2009 @ 12:34 pm

sorry if Iam replying to much to my own post.It is my first and I strongly belive that this bill shoud not see the light of day.
I haven’t seen any ads here in the great territory of South AZ, but this little cartoon was done by Becky.

Reread your your post. I agree. Too busy watching the end of the ball game. Sorry.

Quiz me this? How can one “open the net more”? I realize it does not restrict content but the bill will make choke points unless one can afford to pay the fees on the major and few suppliers on on to the connection. Perhaps I do not under stand your point.

» Posted By bito On November 2, 2009 @ 8:21 pm

Why is McCain taking such an interest? He is ranking member of the “telecom” committee. he was chairman for years and that industry is one of his major contributors. The list includes many of the corporate welfare kings in that group” Comcast, Time=Warner, Verizon,AT%T, etc….. Bread and butter!!

America’s Toughest Sheriff

Clinton pardoned him. So now he is a “pardoned felon”. LOL
Something to do with him saving him from drowning. as to you voting for mac. He was at what one time a somewhat of a decent person.

Heard a rumor “down below the Gila” that JD was thinking of running for Gov. Any scuttle elsewhere?

» Posted By bito On November 2, 2009 @ 2:42 pm

I don’t think he ever proposed a bill, yet, he was on the house floor and MSM nightly spewing his “thoughts.”

This is one of my favorites of recent:
From Oct 22, 09. From the Az Daily Star: “Stiff measures prepared for illegal immigrants”. The article goes on to list 3 new measures proposed by the Az Senate Prez. (Russell Pearce). The one that strikes me the most is:
“Let prosecutors subpoena business records and testimony to investigate whether companies are hiring undocumented workers, WITHOUT FIRST GETTING A WARRANT FROM A JUDGE”. Hey, the state gets to violate both state and federal constitutions!
(at the press conference -in the pic- were Sen. Pearce, Sheriff Joe, And blowhard J.D.Hayworth)

AdLib, we need to get “The Dutchman” over here.

Kalima, Please keep up your posts of international news. I(we) are malnourished when it comes to news from abroad. I used to be able to get ITN and I thought i was enlightened for a non- traveler. Thanks

Those questions were just off the top of my head. I am sure that with the intelligent and thoughtful people (man, that’s an old ploy) here, we should be able to get something across their mods. Perhaps start the phrase with ” how does the Pelosi plan deal with ……….?

I am humbled to be amongst so many people that are writers. The last time I researched and wrote papers was in the ’70’s for my ex’s English papers while she was going for her R.N. degree. She got good marks. (not bad, he says, for a Union carpenter). So please, please show me some allowance.
(begging? You bet! :-D)

It would seem that we could come up with a bunch of contrarily posed questions for them, could we not? Example: how does your plan deal with pre-existing conditions? Will your plan stop rescission if I have a chronic condition? Does your plan disallow yearly and lifetime caps?

Nellie, you struck a chord with me! Editors!! Many of the writers you mention have been or are members of their respective “Guilds”. The editors were writers and the writers have pride in their craft.They took an oath to print only what has been sourced, checked and re-checked, same with the editors. Then publish.
