In the latest disaster I've seen, Lieberman would like us to believe the dems haven't given up enough on the health care bill. Why doesn't the man (if you can call him that) run as a republican when he gets the chance? Obviously he's out of touch with most of America. I'm not sure he's aware that REAL people live here. He was on Face the Nation talking about removing the public option, removing the proposed Medicare provision AND the new program that would help finance long term care. What is he going to want next? The blood and souls of the first born?  Time and again republicans have screwed the middle and lower classes. Now I don't know about anyone else but I'm damn tired of getting anally raped with a 40 grit sandpaper condom without so much as the courtesy of lube or a reach around.

Clearly these people need to come out of their ivory tower on capital hill. The people have a right to live, to pursue happiness. We can't do that when we are sick and dying. Dear, sweet Goddess open your eyes to the millions in desperate need. They give lip service to the programs that help the elderly and the poor while cutting funding. Its hard enough to ask for help. Our families don't need the slap in the face of sitting on a waiting list while we starve to keep a roof over our heads, of being turned away from emergency mental health because we were not released from a government facility. I've even seen the senior nutrition program cut to pay for a public rail service that may never run and few people will use.

Lieberman and those like him only promise to stand in the way of real help and reform. Sorry we can't all be rich enough to be republican. Sure would be nice if more of us could afford health care. Apparently more workers needing to take less sick days is some sort of sin. I swear the conservatives work at raising the country's blood pressure and making our collective head hurt. Perhaps they hope by doing so fewer people that would oppose them will go to the polls due to heart attack and general sickness.
