VICTORY ... for the insurance companies oh and the Dems got something passed |
|
I started seeing this on Morning Joe- I don't watch much anymore but I HAD to see how they would have to face up to the Republican blocking being defeated.
Ten minutes into the broadcast after a short "The Democrats got their bill through" and endless chit chat on comes Politico's Mike Allen to tell us what we are supposed to think of the health care bill being passed in the Senate.
"Big win for the insurance companies" from there Joe and his sidekick Willie showed how WALL STREET LOVES IT (as if that means anything) and they never dared mention the oddity of Wall Street loving a Dem plan (even though the always end up loving it)
Chart after chart of stock prices rising
Then Joe says (and I am not kidding) "and the health insurance companies didn't pay a DIME in lobbying"
At lunch google news didn't mention the bill getting over the only hurdle left in the Senate no they had a story about how the Catholic Bishops don't like it.
That is what a Democratic win looks like these days.
