POLITICO's Meredith Shiner reporting from Nancy Pelosi's big health care reform announcement:
An anti-Pelosi activist started screaming into a bullhorn, "Nazi Pelosi! Nazi Pelosi! You'll burn in hell for this!" as she was announcing the plan, which includes a public option.
Pelosi's biggest one yet! 1,990 fucking pages....:shocked:
Boy, we’re gonna have fun picking this one apart........:Eyecrazy:

At 400,000 words it it only comes out to about $2.24 Million per word.................:notworthy:
House Democrats have seized on that net cost of $894 Billion, but the (CBO) Congressional Budget Office says that it will cost $1.055 Trillion.
It cuts $426 Billion in existing spending programs like Medicare Advantage (you remember that “bribe” they tried to offer the doctors they refused?) and raises Taxes $572 Billion to meet its goal the CBO says.
It supposed to extend health insurance to 96% of the non-elderly U.S. population but will take 10 years to do so.
And for those who try to “read the bill,” beware. There are plenty of paragraphs like this one:
“(a) Outpatient Hospitals – (1) In General – Section 1833(t)(3)(C)(iv) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395(t)(3)(C)(iv)) is amended – (A) in the first sentence – (i) by inserting “(which is subject to the productivity adjustment described in subclause (II) of such section)” after “1886(b)(3)(B)(iii); and (ii) by inserting “(but not below 0)” after “reduced”; and (B) in the second sentence, by inserting “and which is subject, beginning with 2010 to the productivity adjustment described in section 1886(b)(3)(B)(iii)(II)”.
The section deals with “incorporating productivity improvements into market basket updates that do not already incorporate such improvements,” if that helps you any?........:pat:
Not to worry, Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) noted that some members are faster readers than others....:beerchug:
Republican Rep. Joe Barton, who is Texan, said the bill is “about four reams of paper” that add up to the American public “getting reamed.”
