    Given that Dean helped pass Vermont’s state health insurance policies, and given that Vermont has one of the best universal health coverage policies in the nation, I’d say that Dean is far more truthful in talking about this senate bill than anyone right now in the senate. Dean isn’t bucking for a re-election senate seat. He’s just getting out there and telling it like it is.

  2. GovernmentSham912 says:

    Dean says this will help private companies. Congresswomen (D) Jan Schakowsky said its ment to drive the private insurance companies out of buisness.
    whose telling the truth?

  3. Agent1W says:

    Wow, even a big-time liberal has better insights on what’s really wrong with health care reform. This is the HOPE AND CHANGE I’ve been looking for!

    people that say dems are corrupt, and people that say say repubs are corrupt. Ive got news for you, they’re both corrupt. Change starts with ending special interest funding. It’s the same thing as bribing.

    Holly shit, I feel like a thief came into my house to rob me,I’m piss, First Big Pharma gets their bill, then banks,wall street and now Insurances , I think they are going to have American pen raised sheep for Christmas dinner , The Democrats and Obama tied our hoofs and put us in the butcher block, while this happens,Obama is spying on the citizenry and make them bleed in two wars. Crazy shit I miss Bushe’s “good old days”, It seems that a lot idiots post here.

    hmm dont you think you’re a little too old to act like youre in some kind of street gang? Grow up man. youre mind is so wrapped up in left vs right that you dont even care about issues. all you care about is representing your side and vilifying the other side.

  7. jbunn7487 says:

    Obama makes all of these GUARANTEES but he does not mention the GUARANTEE of the cancer death rate increasing or the GUARANTEE of the money for medical research decreasing and an almost certain GUARANTEE of less money to health care workers, therefore less people entering health care programs. And a probable GUARANTEE of a poorer health care system

    PATRIOT Howard Dean, MD, practiced medicine throughout his terms as VT Rep, 1982, & Lt. Gov (1986)~became Gov 1991~was elected to FIVE 2-yr terms 1991-03~was 2nd longest Gov of VT~served as Chair of Nat’l Govs 1994-95; & as Gov, pd off much of VT public debt~balanced budget 11 times~TWICE lowered Income Tax~~oversaw expanding Dr. Dinosaur to ensure health care for VT kids/expectant moms! He is a PATRIOT unlike the POTUS.

  12. PerryLogan says:

    Be careful how you talk about liberals.

    Consider: Stalin hated liberals. Hitler hated liberals. Rush hates liberals.

    The lesson is clear: degenerates hate liberals.

    I agree something needs to be done. Our healthcare system is terrible, but I do not believe this bill is the answer. There are too many unknowns. Thank you have a nice day!

  14. garyreed2121 says:

    Your last comment doesn’t make you any less ideological than myself. Just because I’m a Conservative Republican doesn’t mean I agree with everything that has happened. One thing that upsets me about the healthcare bill is noone knows what is in it. If the bill is so great, why not tell the people?? The contents of the bill is being hidden for a reason.

  15. garyreed2121 says:

    You are right. I don’t know the answer and neither does anyone else. But I can tell you what is NOT the answer and that is more government. As part of the “bail out” the government purchased $250 billion of stocks from banks. If legislation is passed giving the government complete control of healthcare, the government will control well over 50% of the United States of AMERICA’s cash flow.

    If you kill the bill, we don’t get to a conference committee and healthcare reform dies.

  18. lj4adotcomdan says:

    Howard Dean is dead wrong. I just posted a video about it.

  19. 09reason says:

    So let me try to understand what you are saying Mr President. The budget will be busted if we do not pass your health care bill. A bill that will add by your own admission, 45 million unisured including illegal aliens. A bill according to you own GAO that will add $4 trillion to the budget in the next 11 years. I know I’m just a dumb citizen, but with all due respect Mr Predisent Obama, have you been taking accounting lessons from Bernie Madoff?

    You mean the one Obama is continuing?

    Sorry, I was against the War after Bush decided to leave Afghanistan and invade Iraq (which had nothing to do with 9/11).

    Now back to my original question (since you dodged it). How does one pay for the public option with a $14 trillion dollar debt?

  23. deadheadlooser says:

    @Kapan60 you mean the debt bush put us in with a useless war?
