Ya do UNDERSTAND that this 1 trillion dollar price tag placed on health care reform is for 10 YEARS!!!.. Thats less per year than we spend in Iraq/Afghanistan!!! Don't you feel Americas health is worth AT LEAST as much as we spend in those two countries per year!?!?!?!

1. Heard Blue Dog Rep. Mike Ross point that out last night and he said he wouldn't
vote for any plan that wasn't revenue neutral. He really believes we can shave that from negotating drug prices and tightening controls on Medicare.

2. Because it might make someone else mad...
..and then they might say mean things about them. And people on cable news will say bad things abou them. And people who would never vote for them anyway will not vote for them.

We can't have that, can we?
