More on this from emptywheel and Digby:
(Considering the bipartisan whorishness of our current political system, it's almost a guarantee that there won't be the kind of regulation needed to give security to average people. We've just seen that you can nearly destroy the world economy and wipe out more than a decade of accumulated wealth with unbridled greed and they won't [subsequently] properly regulate you.)
I think Blanche Lincoln, Kent Conrad and Max Baucus all have plenty of constituents who make 30k a year just like Rockefeller. But they'd rather see them suffer than risk being called a socialist by some confused teabagger or lose a big campaign check from Blue Cross. It's a choice. And what they choose tells you a whole lot about the character of those making it.

fucking realtors. Begich and the other "Democrats" sellouts will say oh, committee did pass it so we won't do shit.
Yeah, yeah, it's all part of the "medical industrial complex" and their evil plan...nothing whatever to do with a majority of Americans seeing this flawed "healthcare" plan for the government power grab it actually is.

How old are the people who write this childish garbage ? Are there any adults blogging on the left ?
