Freepers' health reforms

I dashed off a brief Olympic post earlier today. Little did I know this would be all they talked about for the rest of the day! Jeez, talk about scraping the barrel for Obama failures to gloat over. Still, I found this nugget: Dems taunt GOP: Where's your health plan?

Freepers respond:

Graybeard58 is ideologically pure, if not going to win at anything:

Here’s my health plan:

Get rid of medicare/medicaid and leave everything else alone.

mbarker12474 is more intellectually vapid than pure:

The free market, protected from government interference by the liberty protecting U.S. Constitution.

Yes! That worked so well in the 1920s!

MrB is not so much principled as he is petty:

Just like the taunts of “Where’s Osama”,

we can now say “Where’s the Olympics? - mmm, mmm, mmm”

The problem is, most 0bambots won’t even be aware of the little kid video referenced in the above taunt.

Cicero has a plan not only to cure health care, but also destroy the Dems!

Tort reform should be number one. It would not only slice back the insurance costs for doctors and practices, but it would cut the Democrats’ largest source of campaign contributions—donations from crooked tort lawyers.

Hillary'sMoralVoid doesn't get out much:

OUR PLAN? IT HAS THE SUPPORT OF FAR MORE PEOPLE THAN YOURS DOES, IT IS CALLED THE STATUS QUO. WHEN IT ISN’T BROKE, DON’T FIX IT!!!

Sweet party of no, Batman! You and the like 2 other people who agree with you will get right on that.

But then IronJack agrees:

We don’t HAVE one. Because we don’t NEED one. There is no health care crisis. Developing a solution to which there is no problem is right out of the marxist playbook. Don’t fall for it.

Private-sector health care has worked in this country for a hundred years. It still does.

Funny how no one except for Freepers attempts the whole "there is no crisis" play. No one in Congress, not even on the Cable TV shows. Though I'd bet Glenn Beck is on board.

  1. Repubs do have a care plan. It is called "cutting" the trial lawyer scum out, increase the supply of medical grads and schools and make it easier for doctors to open low cost health clinics (unlike now, when the AMA and Insurance lobbies dictate how much a clinic can charge for medical care). Of course, this is something the Dems with "gubmint is the answer to everything" cannot comprehend

  2. Hey Anonymous,

    If tort reform really is the issue, why aren't the right-wing media acolytes focusing on this? If you think through that, then you understand why corporate interests are so opposed to reform.

    Oh, and Susan from Glendale is mentally ill, and needs treatment. Maybe a public option can cover her.
