Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

The Messiah gave the same tired speech he's given for months, pretending that the Town Hall meetings, demonstrations, etc., of the last few months had never taken place. He's got only one script on health care, and he read it again for 'The Speech.' The millions of people who put their money where their mouth is (these are investors, not Liberals, who only risk other peoples' money)could see that The Messiah is sunk, and he knows it.

I can only hope that somehow a public option does get passed and these cynical folks lose their bets.

Hospitals being up would indicate that a public option is likely, they will make more money, not less, if a public option steers more people away from the ER and they will collect more from a public option payer than they do from insurance companies like United Health Care which systematically denies payment on millions of bills which are completely and legitimately covered under their policies.

"Hospitals being up would indicate that a public option is likely, "

No, Danni, all for-profit health care is up, including hospitals, because there will be no significant change to the current system.

A 'public option' would mean reimbursements would fall to Medicaid levels (below cost) so all those companies would lose tons of money. That would drive down their value.

You really care about access and cost?

1. Deal with the 3 percent who are chronically uninsured, instead of taking over the 97 percent for whom it works.

2. Insist that Medicare and Medicaid at least cover their actual costs. Their shortfall is programmed into the commercial rates. It's called a cost-shift.


....Vern is wrong again.....

......the Irony Challenged Christian pro-lifer who would rather see INSURANCE COMPANY DEATH PANELS continue to let people die by denying them treatment than to even conced that a public option that could save hundreds of thousands a year could exist.....

......its people like Vern who give Christianity a bad name...

It appears that his dem congresswoman has alot to learn.

You could tell by the panicked look on Congresswoman Lois Capps face that she had no idea how to answer the question, "Is government-run healthcare in the Constitution" when trying to sell universal healthcare to a town hall in Oxnard, California tonight.

She recovered quickly and gave a rambling answer that didn't quite address the question, which is what we've come to expect from politicians. She should have left it at that, but she kept talking.

"It says in the Constitution that there is a right to health, liberty, and happiness," the congresswoman said. Just to show us that this wasn't a slip of the tongue, she was kind enough to reiterate it.

Ouch.

Judging by the immediate reaction of the audience, a full house packed into an AME church, they knew what the congresswoman did notthat she misquoted the Declaration of Independence and then mistakenly referred to it as the Constitution. And Capps was the only person in the room that had taken oath to support and defend that documen

I'm getting a better picture of why the desperation for nationalized health insurance. This is following the pattern of the bank bailouts. In this deteriorating economy where bankruptcies and unemployment are on the rise, they threaten to bring down the medical establishment. In fact 60% of personal bankruptcies are caused by medical bills.

The only way to keep health care prices up is for the feds to take over.

Congress set a precedent of ignoring public sentiment with the bank bailouts. Let's hope they don't do it again.

....Vern is wrong again.....

The THREAD you moron is about how investors are interpreting 'The Speech.'

My health care investments are up more than 6 percent in two days. So, just how am I wrong, dumbass?

Millions of investors watched 'The Speech' and could see your Messiah is going down.

Huh?

Throughout the Bible it tells us to be careful with money and be shrewd about investments. Do you know that almost 30 percent of Scripture is about money?

Of course you don't. You are just some simpleton fool who is posting in a thread you don't even grasp.

dems will backdoor this if they have to
and right now they are ramming this down our throats even with all of the massive and countrywide protest.
and since dems are making every effort to start all this after the election of 2012...maybe by then we will be able to fix what they are about to break.

.....I guess that means INSURANCE COMPANY DEATH PANELS get to deny coverage to the desperately ill so that....." My health care investments are up more than 6 percent in two days. ...Vern".....

....Vern....that 6%, plus a lot of your other Health Investment Profits came at the expense of people killed by Insurance Company Death Panels so that their treatment would not lower profits.....

.....I understand that you being pro-life, have no problem with killing the living for money, and you do not even have the most basic insight into how your investments are responsible for murdering sick Americans......its pricks like you that keep Americans sick, and dying, and bankrupt, at rates that are unseen in the rest of the western world...


".....I understand that you being pro-life, have no problem with killing the living for money, and you do not even have the most basic insight into how your investments are responsible for murdering sick Americans......"

So you have no 401-K or any other investment tools tied to Insurance Companies or other Corporations that kill Americans?

....no.....I have a conscience.......

....it has been public knowledge for many years that insurance companies have people working for them whose job it is to find loopholes in paid up insurance policies in order to DISQAULIFY policy holders right at the time they have turned sick and need the coverage.......

.....this practice kills ( I would even make a case for murder) thousands of Americans each month.....

.....yes....it's good for the insurance companies bottom line, not having to pay out for expensive treatment for sick people.....but it, in effect, kills the people who paid up their policies in good faith when they were healthy.......

......I made up my mind years ago that I would not participate in such a "MURDER FOR PROFIT" scheme........

....Vern of course.....has no problems with murder for profit....it seems the Bible tells him that its ok......
