And the drug czar has also—here’s where the lying comes in—been prohibited from funding research that might give credence to any of the above.”

that the spark has not been preserved. And that we are a less strong country

to do so? There are significant problems with both the House and the Senate
versions that could cause the final bill to fail one or both of these
tests.”

“The Congressional Progressive Caucus had pushed hard for a “robust” public option

House Bill Will Lack Robust Public Option
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/28/house-progressives-dial-b_n_337574.html
“On a policy level, the negotiated public option will cost taxpayers an extra $85
billion and is the favored choice of Blue Dogs and other conservative Democrats.
Observers have noted the irony of the Blue Dogs — who champion fiscal conservatism
– backing the the more costly public option. But such confusion misreads the Blue
Dog Coalition, which is more properly understood as a bloc of Democrats who favor
business interests. In the case of the public option, requiring it to negotiate rates
means higher payments to providers — hospitals, doctors and drug makers — and less
competition for insurance companies.”

“The marriage equality movement has been severely damaged by the argument that those
opposed to same-sex marriage would be forced to perform weddings by the demand of
couples who (for no reason I can imagine) would ask someone absolutely opposed to
same-sex marriage to perform their ceremony. As much as we have repeated our denial
of such coercion in the past, a bigoted, racist, justice of the peace in the
backwoods of Louisiana may finally make the case for marriage equality most
effectively.”

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/28/bankers-vs-the-people-whi_n_335842.html
“One reason — which has never been directly addressed by Obama — may be that many

Senators Who Could And/Or Will Screw Up Health Care Reform

“Anyway, the matter at hand now is whether a reform bill that contains as limited a measure as the opt-out plan will survive the Senate.
